@Ulrich Per other discussions on this, that's because that part was edited later. Polygon's quote from yesterday's blog was correct at the time, but is outdated now. (And they should update their article accordingly.)
The quote that I provided was directly from the Polygon article. Do you mean to suggest it was only clickbait shitfuckery when the article was first posted?
Even then, I would argue that that STILL does not "suggest further delays".
@Ulrich Which quote, the "first half of this year" one? Yeah, that was a post in February. A few weeks later, Valve posts a new blog saying "we hope to ship in 2026" which absolutely suggests that NOT shipping in 2026 is also a possibility. That's the quote everyone reported on, which was later revised to say "we will be shipping all three products this year." This is all a ton of noise and speculation based on a single line that ended up being a misphrasing but it wasn't wrong based on the information at the time.
FYI you don't have to tag me, I got a notification when you reply to me.
The one from Valve in the Polygon article.
It was. There was, at no time, any suggestion by Valve that the release was being delayed further, and especially not at the time the article was published.
@Ulrich I'm posting from Mastodon; that's just how clients default to handling replies.
I know. And it's dumb. Which is why I don't use it. And Mastodon is polluting the Fediverse with this crap.
