Payday 3 did too good a job of silently releasing a stealth trailer, so the devs had to prompt fans with bad poetry

pcgamer.com:

Starbreeze is gearing up for the release of Payday 3 in September, a sequel that is not so much reinventing the wheel as just giving it a huge polish. Fans have been largely positive about the look of the new title beyond one big sticking point: unlike the previous titles this is going to be always online and a service title, and people don't like that one bit.

The protesting against that aside, Payday 3 basically doubles-down on expanding and refining a bunch of Payday 2 systems that are present but not really all that fleshed-out. A major one is stealth which was at one point quite an effective tool until being nerfed into the ground, meaning every heist ends up in a shootout.

Payday 3 released a video showcasing its stealth mechanics five days ago, but decided to play into the theme by hiding it. If you go to the Payday 3 website and watch the gameplay trailer, but turn down the volume during it, then the stealth trailer fades in and replaces it. It's a really neat idea even if a bit fiddly. Alternatively, visiting the page in an incognito Chrome browser will show the stealth trailer.

The dev team did such a great job of making this stealthy, in fact, that after four days of silence it ended up having to prompt players into finding the video. Which it did via the medium of poetry, and the less said about this doggerel the better.
