The last Teatime I watched (13th January I think), I asked when the streaming ban for DW2 would be lifted.

What I was given back then boiled down to:
* they needed to make a special Streamer versions
* they needed to deliver those to the Content Creators
* then they could lift the ban, propably giving them a bit of lead time to learn the game, produce content, etc.

The timeframe was give as "2 weeks". But that was a ideal case. And it was unclear if that 2 week goal was shipping the version, or ban lifting. And all this is from me going by memory.

Edit: I might have missheard. After finding it again, this Video at 15:30, I think he says "in the next few weeks" not "in the next two weeks".

So after all that backstory, back to the title:
Any news on when Streamers will be able and allowed to show off DW2?

thank you zgrssd for linking the video.

I would estimate that streamers will be allowed to show (some) content in march. But I hope it will be earlier [:)]

Okay, DasTactic streamed it for 3 hours yesterday.

Apparently this version will only be good for 2 weeks. Also he can only play 2 factions.
And he is planning recording something for youtube first.
