"The developers" versus "a developer" on Metro Exodus page

In both references provided for "The developers were further criticized in the gaming press for stating that if Metro Exodus did not sell well on the Epic Games Store, its sequels may become console exclusives" on the Metro Exodus page, the articles make very clear that the threat came from one single developer on a Russian forum, and the publishers and fellow developers do not agree with his stance nor do they feel his statement represents them. I apologize for deleting the entire segment instead of actively implementing this fact into the edit, but I also feel that the information is unnecessary to begin with, since as I have just clarified, this is one developer we're talking about who does not represent the entire development team's sentiments. I can understand if you disagree with me on the segment's significance, but I won't relent on the distinction between the weightless statement of one developer with whom his fellow developers and publishers do not agree and implicating the entire development team. Zats A Fact (talk) 23:25, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed and mostly fixed. Maybe some minor wordsmithing. It's dishonest not to note this was a single developer, not 4A Games, or to omit their response. -- ferret (talk) 00:15, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm glad this was ironed out, and again, I apologize for deleting the entire segment instead of making the necessary changes.--Zats A Fact (talk) 01:02, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Name spelling

Hi @Ferret: That's how these Ukrainian names are spelled in English. You are aware 4A Games is a Ukrainian company, right? See recent interview for example where co-founder Andriy Prokhorov specifically says that "even after moving main office to Malta in 2014 (they still have 2nd, smaller office in Kyiv), they remain a Ukrainian company" Metro Exodus. Українці створили гру про постапокаліпсис у Росії (in Ukrainian).--Piznajko (talk) 02:37, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ps. The only exception I would say is Andrew Prokhorenko (since in LinkedIn he spells his name in and English manner as "Andrew", rather than the original (birth name) Andriy, see https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-prokhorov-89219b17/?originalSubdomain=ua )--Piznajko (talk) 02:40, 18 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 20 February 2019

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Metro Exodus. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

~In the first Plot paragraph, there is a 'y' missing. Currently it reads:

"who have also captured other prisoners who reveal the come from outside of Moscow."

But should read:

"who have also captured other prisoners who reveal they come from outside of Moscow." 2A00:23C5:EAA5:2600:B852:9B23:E3C9:F27A (talk) 23:03, 20 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
