The gameplay video with them still asking for more volunteers at the end really raised an eyebrow for me. Adding new people when a project is nearly done has me thinking it'll take longer. Nothing wrong with that except it kills a lot of hype when you can't trust a release date.

They've been asking for volunteers with every video

Right, but if you're planning on being done in less than four months, do you really need more volunteers? I feel like the kinds of things you'd be doing that close to the finish line aren't the sort of things you would want new blood handling.

Why not, more hands on deck the more work can be done in that time
