A Vampyre Story 2 On Hold, Cancellation Possible

A report on GBase.ch, in the site's native German, offers indications from Autumn Moon Entertainment's Bill Tiller that A Vampyre Story 2 is on hold, and if publisher Crimson Cow does not soon find an investor for it, the vampire adventure sequel may be cancelled. Here's the English version of his comment:
AVS2 got 30% done. Then due to a couple of game companies that failed to do what they the said they would with our engine they ran us over budget and so neither AME or Crimson Cow had the money to finish it. So Crimson Cow has the rights to do it, and they have tried to get it funded a few times and are trying now, but so far no luck. So call it on hold. It could be cancelled soon though. I'm not sure.

So in 3 years [more or less] they've only managed to get 30% done... Wasn't AVS1 cut short with the remaining assets going into AVS2? The AVS2 domain name (linked from their own announcement post) seems to have expired so I guess the cancellation is a done deal.

Guess the market has been tougher than they had planned.

Never understood why the game didn't come to Steam. Did Valve refuse it or did the publisher not try? Just being on Steam would have likely saved them from this situation.

I remember seeing that it was in some manifest files for steam a long time back, almost like the process got started to the point that they created an entry for it but it never appeared.

Gee, simple household economics here, but you never count on future cash to spend that you don't already have in the bank.

That would suck. My wife and I both really enjoyed the first one and we were looking forward to the second.
