Kinda shouting into the ether here since I'm not sure who all will even see this, but does anyone know if versions of Dark Deception in countries outside of the US are different in some way?

There's a runner that I've had my eye on for a bit and have been suspecting that something is up, but I can't 100% prove it. I'm not going to say who it is for the sake of privacy. However, I am wondering if this person is not playing on the current version of the game in some of their runs, primarily due to differences in voice lines that do/don't play.

The main two that I've noticed are: the dialogue in Mascot Mayhem not doing the weird looping thing that it does in current patch (i.e.: "Guys? Why's he hitting that button? Guys-", "You little freak. You ruined my mouth. You-", the dinnertime loop at the end of the level that doesn't appear in runs) or dialogue from Bierce after being spotted by the Reaper Nurses that doesn't seem to be in current patch either (i.e.: "If you don't want to be a human pin cushion, you might want to move out of the way when they jump."). There was also a Crazy Carnevil run that had a shard bug I have literally never seen before in my 450 hours in this game, but that doesn't mean much with how jank this game is lmao.

I'm wondering if there is some difference in the game in other countries that I don't know about that could account for these discrepancies?

P.S.: If the person I am referring to is reading this, please know this is not a personal attack or anything. I am still trying to give you the benefit of the doubt and I am by no means trying to say you are cheating. Watching your runs, it's clear you are quite good at the game. Since any runs submitted are supposed to be on current version at the time of submission (v1.9.6 at the time of writing this), I'm just trying to do my due diligence as a verifier and keep things fair.

Ah, thank you for the response. I genuinely didn’t know these things, and now I do. :)

I haven’t rejected any runs with the stuff I mentioned (I verified them), but I was still curious.
