Personally glad for the delay, I can now do my exams without having to miss launch/barely play due to study commitments. I was sooo gutted at it not being released in summer for that reason so now this kinda solves the problem for me, I do feel for people unable to change their days off work though. Sucks for the delay to be as last minute as it was for them.

It's annoying that it's been delayed by two weeks, but I'd rather SE release it when it's ready, than make us a CD Projekt (although that studio needed another year).
The state it's released in will determine the image it has in people's eyes, and that makes it sell more.
2 more weeks to get the same experience as 5.0, I'm ok with waiting.
I was right not to get hype and to say to myself: "it's only in 3 months anyway".
No hype, no impatience. And I know Shadowbringer was very good in its 5.0 content -

You keep bringing up CDPR as though that company never delayed their product at all. CP2077 was delayed quite a bit if you'll recall, though the situations between these two are different (SE delayed its qa a bit to fine tune lore, 2077 had been rebuilt from the ground up like...twice). The situations aren't exactly equitable. What's more, most people who are actually annoyed aren't annoyed with the delay itself, just the notification of the delay being so late.

I feel sorry for people who have booked time off work, but it can't be helped. I would rather the game be good than it being released in a bad way.
On the other hand I have lots of crafting (rl) to do still so I will not have to rush to have them made for people who ordered. -
11-06-2021, 09:30 PMSaberMaxwellIt's not a very good example is what I'm saying. It's a false equivalency at best and a gross misunderstanding of the actual things going on at both studios at worst.Quote:

Personally I think trust Yoshi P to know what his product needs to be complete. The announcement could have been more prompt, however, that's where my own criticism begins and ends. -

I do think goodwill and some trust on them to deliver has been lost. Although this stretches back to 5.2 with this just being the biggest breaking point. 14 went from a game that had clockwork updates to now me expecting delays as the norm.

I’m annoyed and disappointed but this will pass quickly. I’m not mad or angry because as much as this inconvenienced me and maybe wasted my time crap happens. No one’s dead or dying. I will try my hardest to shift my time off but I do wish if they knew a week sooner they had said.
This said, those who send messages of hate to yoshi or the dev team can get… well f’ed and the level of dislike I hold towards them I don’t think I would be allowed to write but know that I feel that will all my heart body and soul. They didn’t force this, it wasn’t some scheme. It just is what it is. Be annoyed, be indifferent but don’t be a butthole. -
11-06-2021, 09:39 PMMiracle_DivaIt's the first time they are delaying an expansion. For 2 weeks. No need to be so dramatic.Quote:
