I don't think people put a gun to the guys head, it was all part of the campaign that was running at the time. The general consensus was that the axe had already been wielded and fallen on Softimage and this was just lip service. But that wasn't the case, from my knowledge anyway. At that moment in time, there was some good intention to push the product forward in order to properly find it's place. I'm sure some people may have read between the lines, but internally myself and others still believed there was a future.
The problem was the timeline of events has they unfolded. The video and event was done for launching the 2014 product line in March 2013, but also around this time there was a management change, from that changes happened and the EOL announcement was made, more or less a year after Daniel had said it was ok. Personally and imo, I don't believe there was ever an intention to deliberately mislead people, but certainly the timeline can make it look that way. People can choose to believe that or not.
