One of the reasons I have been watching this channel for years. You guys have integrity. That is such a great quality to have, I wish more humans shared the same traits. Keep up the good work!!
You're one of the few Gaming Channels that actually does real journalism and research. Everybody makes mistakes. Thanks for all your continued hard work.
This is some of the best gaming news content on RUclips. I have so much respect for you guys and your mission and am gladdened to see such a high bar being set for journalistic integrity on this platform. Keep up the amazing work!
Big ups for acknowledging problems and being transparent. This is exactly why I keep coming back to this channel for unbiased direct news for my favorite art medium
Thank you for correcting this. Massive props for the work you put in. You can see how much your integrity truly means to you for the betterment of your viewers.
Mentor Pilot is an amazing channel and the airline safety model (public disclosure, frank and specific steps to change, etc.. It’s a useful methodology to address issues.
Transparency and a plan to not repeat those actions really speaks volumes to how committed you are to offering us HONEST gaming news. Mistakes happen and I have a ton of respect for someone/company who takes accountability and seems to genuinely feel remorse and a need to do better.
Thank you for demonstrating journalistic integrity. It's reassuring to know that some people take pride in their work within that field, and that they take their role and influence seriously. Virtues and values that will decline and disappear the more AI creeps into and consumes the industry
This kind of an update is great though, it improves confidence in your ability to get the facts out, because you've owned up to when you didn't, so good job on that. <3
We thank you for the heartfelt correction. Obviously we aren't immune to making our own very stupid mistakes as you saw from our recent launch. As one creator to another creator, we really appreciate the shared spirit of becoming better and learning from our mistakes. Thank you.
I appreciate you correcting the record. The game is great and so is the dev team. They've made mistakes, but they really care about this game. It's not just a cash grab for them
Checklists are extremely common in medicine too, most significantly in the operating room. Too many cases of tools left in people, wrong limb amputations, etc.
Chad Bellular notices their mistake, immediately takes action to mitigate the spread of stale news, transparently improves internal processes to prevent the same mistake from happening again, and releases a comprehensive update about the whole situation just 2 days later... wow.
Being human is hard. Life is chaotic and sometimes you call a shot on something and it ends up being the wrong one. How you deal with that situation is the true measure of your character.
Everyone makes mistakes. When you're working hard, shite happens man. At least you did the right thing and fixed it instead of farming out for clicks and ad revenue. GG
Just a suggestion for less communication mistakes. You can put a date at the start of the video when it got recorded. So you can show us that it had been made earlier and uploaded later.
The answer is: yes. The game and the dev team alone are reason to buy it. It's an amazing game, if you ever wanted PvP dnd/Skyrim, this is it. Buy. The. Game.
Thanks for the summary. I do question your ability to predict the outcome of the legal action. Presumably, if you were a lawyer and you'd studied the case, you'd have said so, right?
I’ve heard that some RUclips channels will have a process where the person who publishes a video is expected to sit and watch the comments for 30-45 minutes so that if viewers point out something important in the comments it can be caught ASAP. Not sure if that’s reasonable for your channel, but something to consider.
Have they made any statements regarding if you buy the game direct from them and in future if the resume Steam sales that we can use our existing account in Steam? I know those silly steam achievments don't mean anything but I still like to work on them, it gives me something additional to do in my games that I enjoy.
If someone is not versed in the context, the title of the video reads like controversy Dark & Darker made themself instead of something Bellullar News did wrong.
A proper apology, explanation, and plan to not allow it to happen in the future as well as additional explanation? What blasphemy is this? Where is my ukulele? Where is my partial denial while acknowledging you're listening to feedback while not actually admitting any fault or doing anything? (On a more serious note, good video explaining and why).
Close to all youtubers try to hide their mistakes and then they make a fuss about how they messed up without properly showing how they got to that point in the first place.
It's not like you did it on purpose and really the original video can act like a contemporaneous historical account because it was factual at the time of recording which has only been the same as the publication date since the increase in live streaming. Even written publications on websites may be 24 hours old at time of release.
Hey you didn’t double triple or quadruple down on a false narrative and owned up to it, immediately better than most News gaming sites and channels we all know and love to hate
im really on the fence about this game bc i played the last two betas and had a lot of fun but everyone is telling me that the game sucks now and its unbalanced and economy sucks and all that
One of the reasons I have been watching this channel for years. You guys have integrity. That is such a great quality to have, I wish more humans shared the same traits. Keep up the good work!!
This is why I watch your channel. The confidence I have with you guys always rises cause you admit when you’re wrong

It’s nice to see someone actually taking ownership of an issue. We only get better by learning from our mistakes.
Thank you for correcting this. Massive props for the work you put in. You can see how much your integrity truly means to you for the betterment of your viewers.
I appreciate the time and effort you put into making these reviews, it really shows.

I love how detailed your reviews are, keep up the great work!

This is one of the most informative reviews I've seen on this game, thank you for
This is the best game review I've seen in a while, well done.
You have a real talent for game reviews, keep it up!
Great to see a sincere apology, a plan for change, and all presented in Bells humble voice. Thank you for the continued professionalism.

Your review was so thorough, I feel like I already know how to play the gam
You've convinced me, I'm getting it. Thanks for the video :D
This kind of an update is great though, it improves confidence in your ability to get the facts out, because you've owned up to when you didn't, so good job on that. <3
The first part got me with the swords and magic
Your review was so good, I had to subscribe to your channel.
I've been on the fence about buying this game, but your review helped me make up
We thank you for the heartfelt correction. Obviously we aren't immune to making our own very stupid mistakes as you saw from our recent launch. As one creator to another creator, we really appreciate the shared spirit of becoming better and learning from our mistakes. Thank you.
For the rest, good video owning up to the mistake, keep up the good work!
I appreciate you correcting the record. The game is great and so is the dev team. They've made mistakes, but they really care about this game. It's not just a cash grab for them
Damn Mentor Pilot name drop, never thought these two youtube video worlds would overlap lol.
Mistakes happen, owning up and correcting the mistake is what makes us different. Thank you for the correction.
So. Integrity, ethics, transparency and accountability in someone doing a news-style report.
Checklists are extremely common in medicine too, most significantly in the operating room. Too many cases of tools left in people, wrong limb amputations, etc.

It's great to admit that there could have been an extra step taken prior to the publication date for corrections and updates or even a total re-write.
Just a suggestion for less communication mistakes. You can put a date at the start of the video when it got recorded. So you can show us that it had been made earlier and uploaded later.
looks clean... are there open areas to explore or small maps only?
The answer is: yes. The game and the dev team alone are reason to buy it. It's an amazing game, if you ever wanted PvP dnd/Skyrim, this is it. Buy. The. Game.
Thanks for the summary. I do question your ability to predict the outcome of the legal action. Presumably, if you were a lawyer and you'd studied the case, you'd have said so, right?
Dark and Darker is now #10 in Steam's "Top Sellers by Revenue" and featured on the Steam home page. Awesome apology, you've got my sub.

sharing your thoughts.
my mind.
If someone is not versed in the context, the title of the video reads like controversy Dark & Darker made themself instead of something Bellullar News did wrong.
The price is free right now on Epic so price isn't an issue lol
These times move fast so news that you just made is already old and has a big chance of being written when being uploaded.
Did this game rip from Elder Scrolls IV or something? what did they allegedly jack?
My friend keeps trying to get me to play this. But I'm not into the whole fairy/magic thing.
A proper apology, explanation, and plan to not allow it to happen in the future as well as additional explanation? What blasphemy is this? Where is my ukulele? Where is my partial denial while acknowledging you're listening to feedback while not actually admitting any fault or doing anything? (On a more serious note, good video explaining and why).
The wizard is incredibly hard to play early game and still not viable for solo late game

Are there missions? Is there any content other than killing other players?
Consider other title like, "Bellullar News Stupid Mistake: The Dark & Darker Situation".

Hey you didn’t double triple or quadruple down on a false narrative and owned up to it, immediately better than most News gaming sites and channels we all know and love to hate
maybe for 10$ but 35 wtf no
im really on the fence about this game bc i played the last two betas and had a lot of fun but everyone is telling me that the game sucks now and its unbalanced and economy sucks and all that
Dont buy it. Its getting worse and worse. Its bleeding players and you risk buying a game that cant fill lobbies. We already lost map selection.
game is swarmed with more cheaters than tarkov. def dont buy it.
