When translators say they hate doing MTPE because it's faster to just do it from scratch and results in better material, we're not exaggerating. If I was a proofreader and a translator handed me this, I would immediately tell the PM to fire them. No translation is genuinely better than an MT in loc.

If anyone has contacts at Valve who can help expedite this, we certainly wouldn't say no to the help. In the meantime, I'll be here swimming in cortisol.
We are aware that Steam has classified Nighthawks as an adult game and has excluded it from searches (and delisted it entirely in certain countries). We are working on it. Valve is under the impression that this game is way sexier than it actually is.

after trying to play Grim Fandango out of historical curiosity and bouncing due to it's obtuseness and game breaking bugs I went looking for another adventure game to play and landed on The Red Strings Club (Destructeam, 2018) and mostly really liked it
halfway through "grim fandango" and the game has locked itself in a state where the player character has despawned and the game is unplayable. reloading a save doesn't fix it
