Dinklebot is $$$ (Destiny)

I have this suspicion that money must have been an issue on the side. They must have known they would need more dialog, but either failed to get that in the contract or hoped they could negotiate more lines later and it fell through.

So for TTK, they went with an alternate plan and Nolanbot is born.

I suspect you're right. I also suspect both parties would be more interested in keeping the relationship going if Dinklage had been widely acknowledged as the best part of the game. Alas, that decidedly was not the case.

I wonder if this means I'll be able to sell my physical Dinklebot in 2024 and retire to an island somewhere.
