Half Ghoul Twitch Drop Badge not the same as Advertised?

Haven't really seen any official discussion/answer on this, so I thought I'd ask here at least once. Why is the "Half Ghoul" badge that we receive from watching drops different from the Tokyo Ghoul launch stream?

The version shown off in the stream features Kankei crying, halfway in water. With clouds looming over him, and the One Eyed Ghoul reflecting back at him. And is significantly better. While in game- what we receive is Kankei being cut off at the shoulders looking forward, with the Ghoul being reflected directly underneath. No clouds, no/little emotion from Kaneki, barely any "water" ripples, and awful looking scratches.

This is a terrible downgrade, and there needs to be some explanation as to why we don't have the version shown off on stream. Even more so that we had/have to watch 3 hours to get this badge (even if it's only 3 hours, to be met by a subpar version is extremely disappointing).

BHVR, please release the better version.

    I think it was just an early version of it. They also have to adhere to license holder feedback as well, if they wanted this change there's nothing they could really do about that.

    I could understand licensing. But if that's the case, why did they show it off as the "early one"? They would've had to change their mind as soon as the Paragraph dropped, quickly swapped it out, then just.. not expect anyone to notice?

    At the very least- a simple, "Hey, Tokyo Ghoul didn't want us to give that one out. So we gotta give you something similar." Because it would at least clear the air. But as far as I know, they haven't yet answered.
