What happened to the original Adjunct?

The adjunct shown in the 4 year old kickstarter videos?

I guess the the glove adjunct we got works, but it clearly is less interesting and less versatile.

From the kickstarter page

The adjunct doesn’t speak, but it does understand you and your hand gestures. Through your interactions both you and your adjunct evolve a vocabulary of gestures you learn together. What starts as rudimentary communication evolves into a complex symphony of actions as you solve challenges together and begin to understand the epic nature of what lies ahead.[\quote]

from what I've heard, the original adjunct design was scrapped because everyone kept forgetting to use their hands to signal, so they tweaked it for the lowest common denominator of person. worry not, you'll see the original design in the ending. no spoilers, though ;-)

Still sad that the original Adjunct was scrapped, that was the favourite part of the (VR) game for me.

> everyone kept forgetting to use their hands to signal
Who is everyone? The players or the devs? Maybe it's different for some VR headsets but I found that very intuitive (and comfortable).

Is the game moddable? Maybe someone could mod it to include an adjunct that works with gestures instead of buttons? That would be much cooler, at least for me :)

By "an adjunct that works" I don't mean like in the demo. Just different controls, the system can stay the same, imo.
