idk maybe the team changed but last I heard (from hopoo) the internal gbx team were mainly the folks who did work on sotv and anniversary update
they’re not that bad, they had been working with hopoo for a while before the IP sale
main issue is that with console parity and unity version upgrade a lot of things are now tied to fps, but they are aware of it and are working on it. the main issues were regional pricing (which has been remedied) and all embracer products (including this dlc) being unpurchasable in Russia. Basically, give it a couple weeks
no it’s being developed by an internal team now
dark souls
basically every game uses ticks lol this was not intentional
