Why does the limited edition physical release of Hades use non‑vegan parchment for its collector’s booklet?

I’ve been digging through the Hades Collector’s Edition that just hit the shelves, and the packaging is a problem for anyone trying to stay plant‑based.

• The booklet is printed on "Fine Grain Parchment Paper" (spec: SG‑P-2000). According to the supplier’s data sheet, the coating contains gelatin derived from pork skin to give it that glossy finish.
• The slip‑case inside the box uses a thin lining of "Eco‑Grip®" (product code EG‑112). Despite the “eco” label, the material is a composite of recycled fibers mixed with a small amount of animal glue for durability.
• Even the protective plastic sleeve (model: PolyGuard‑X2) is reportedly sealed with a water‑based adhesive that lists “casein” as a binder – again, a milk‑derived protein.

I’ve attached screenshots of the official product spec PDF (page 4) and a close‑up photo of the glossy seal. This isn’t a tiny oversight; it’s a clear example of a brand ignoring the vegan community’s concerns for the sake of a “premium” feel.

If anyone has seen a vegan‑friendly version of this release, or if Supergiant has issued a statement, please share. Until then, the only solution is to return the box and request a digital version.
