The rule aboard this ship

Official words are facts.
Everything else waits.

  1. A
    Date the source

    A current Steam announcement beats an old landing-page button.

  2. B
    Name the boundary

    “Playable on Deck” is not the same as Valve Verified.

  3. C
    Recheck the live build

    Routes, enemies, loot, settings, and fixes wait for direct EA evidence.
