Considering what Megan tweeted earlier about going back from E3 to help launching this update, she's probably just come back by now, and it's late, so it's safe to assume they would leave it for tomorrow, maybe.

Dude, again, I point to the reference I made to blaming parents while growing up for being hyped over a gift -- you know you're getting something to do with what you wanted in the first place, but even mom & dad aren't obligated to spoil the surprise just because you can't stand it.

But mom and dad really shouldn't lie for 3 years straight that they are working on getting you the gift and only really start looking for it 3 months or so prior.

DE isn't totally wrong for providing no info.

DE is wrong for telling people they are working on it everytime people ask about it over the years and then, even making a trailer for it 1 whole year in advance and making a small quest to hype it up further then not work on it for months before deciding to finally spend 3 months to do it.

Managing customers' expectations is a marketing function. There's no blaming customers for it.

If you sell a product and then keep its production super secretive and bring it up every once in a while (look at the number of devstreams that talk about it over the years), you can't blame your customers for thinking you have been working on it instead of literally doing nothing and just pulling a 3 month rush work after 3 plus years of first announcing its existence.

If a product has been announced and business needs dictate that it can't be done at this point in time, the onus is on the company to tell its customer base that this product has been shelved temporarily or till further notice instead of keeping hush and letting the customer base think it is still being worked on.

E3 was on 11/6 and now is 13/6. She is already back home and they are all ready to ship the quest as soon as possible.

Could Hunhow(or a fragment of him) have taken Ballas' form? Like Lotus did long time ago to infiltrate in the orokin high spheres?

In that case, Margulis/Lotus is also in danger

What if Ballas IS Hunhow? I mean, Hunhow is just a machine that Ballas talks through.

So, incest between Hunhow and Natah? I doubt it.

Actually we have. During the Second Dream and Octavias Anthem we see Hunhow. He’s the giant Sentient.

No, that wasn't a space ship. That's what Sentients actually look like. They've very large.

And it could be controlled by Ballas. Maybe that's why Ballas knew how to disconnect Natah from Margulis. Also  he was the one pushing Sentient project forward and also didn't really like Orokin.

Well, I have been always thought that Ballas is more powerful than Hunhow but now 😂 Our creator is just like an ant 🐜 to that acient Sentient but Ballas is still OP right ?

Doubtful. That just raises more questions than answers.

yeah all of that

It got understandably frustrating as time went on and we heard things like "It's likely to come before the end of the year" in 2015, "It's coming sort of soon" in 2016, "It's on the agenda" in 2017, a teaser when it wasn't even going to be worked on any time soon after because PoE was the focus for that year, a prologue when the writing had barely just begun, etc.

Just because Ballas is a lot smaller than Hunhow, doesn’t mean he is less powerful.

A lot of games/shows like God of War or One Punch Man have their main protagonists going up against enemies the size of mountains and defeating them with relative ease.

Ballas could be no different.

IIRC there's nothing in the story that contradicts it so who knows. This voice in the trailer is just too similar to Hunhow's.

Maybe because it is Hunhows voice? We’ve heard Ballas speak. He doesn’t sound like that.

Actually, it has Ballas' intonations. It simply variates in pitch.

He has Ballas's accent, not Hunhow's.

Sounds exactly like Hunhow to me.

Plus, his mouth doesn't move.
