Steam's second most-wishlisted game puts out bizarre set of 'revelations' ahead of release: 'Please don't accuse us of scamming; that's not true'

pcgamer.com:

Some time in the 14th century, an English anchoress named Julian of Norwich beheld a series of visions of Christ's passion while mortally ill, after which she miraculously recovered. Eventually, she would write her visions up into the Revelations of Divine Love, a groundbreaking work of mystical theology that would come to be regarded as a classic.

Anyway, it's got a sequel now, in the form of "Revelations from Fntastic," an incredibly odd PR statement in a long line of incredibly odd PR statements from the studio behind The Day Before, the zombie survival MMO (and Steam's second most-wishlisted game) that had go into deep freeze after it drew the ire of a calendar app. 

Although the game's survival (and even existence) has looked questionable at various points over the course of this year, it's set to finally release this Thursday, December 7. Ahead of that, Fntastic has put out a statement aiming to address, well, a whole bunch of vaguely defined groups, from future players to people «who didn't believe in us» to the studio's own business partners.

Like a few of Fntastic's other public statements, the whole thing is delivered in a tone more appropriate for people about to face the guillotine. There is a perplexing level of gravitas to the whole thing, which I'll embed in its entirety below, but let me try to give you the gist. Of the statement's six bullet points—each addressed to a different hypothetical reader—the longest by far is the one made out to «a person who didn't believe in us,» which begins by saying «We made this game for you, too. We accept any kind of criticism and don't hold a grudge against you.»

Things continue from there. First up: «Please forgive us for not doing the best marketing and teasers,»
