What counts as a source
Public store pages, official patch notes, Steam Community guides, review essays, databases such as FMVDB, chaptered videos whose titles and descriptions I can quote, and encyclopedia or company pages for the non-game meanings of the word. A comment without a date or supporting evidence does not settle a threshold. Machine-readable official sources are linked alongside ordinary pages in the Sources section.
How the status column works
- “2 sources” or “3 sources” means that many independent publishers agreed on the relevant detail; two Steam pages or an API and its matching store page count as one publisher.
- “1 source” means I could find only one. The cell is still shown, because hiding it would look like certainty.
- “Sources disagree” means two pages give different numbers or different names. Both stay. AIKO’s Justice check is the model: 50 at launch, 35 after patch 1.2.
- A blank cell means nobody I could read published the value. Husbandman’s trigger is blank on purpose.
The first-person note
Each page ends with a short note in the first person. That note says what judgment I made: which number I kept, which conflict I refused to smooth over, which blank I left. It ends with one sentence stating the limits of the available sources. The note records the public evidence and the limits of that evidence. Personal playthrough claims require a documented playthrough.
Freshness and takedowns
Price, review totals, achievement percents, and DLC size are dated “as of 2026-11” on the hub and should be re-read against Steam when they are next edited. Story structure from the launch guide is updated only when a patch note moves a threshold. Screenshots are store images, captioned as such. If a rights holder asks for an image to come down, the text guide can stand without it. Corrections arrive at [email protected].
This policy does not cover a paper-game calculator, a football encyclopedia, or a tourism guide. Those subjects are identified and sent away. Sponsored lines, if any are ever added, would be labelled and would not change a threshold in a table. None are on the site today. Advertising is served by Adsterra and measurement by Google Analytics 4 and Microsoft Clarity, all disclosed on the privacy page; no advertiser or sponsor has any say over a threshold in a table.
