Considering the October 2023 release date of the full episode 13, I'm not even sure what's worse right now, that BD is lying or that he's telling the truth.
If he's lying, at least he's a master manipulator making money off of gullible people. But if he's telling the truth, that means he spent a year frantically reworking episode 13 to fit the scrapped season 1, instead of finishing the season 1 rework and releasing the "already finished" episode 13 along with it, which paints him as an incompetent buffoon.
Either way he's unreliable as a developer but only one of these scenarios affords him some respect.
