Delay the expansion to Summer 2022

I've got a bad feeling Endwalker will be Shadowbringers 2.0. Amazing story and music but lacking in content. This whole pandemic business has already delayed 5.3 so why not delay the next expansion to summer 2022? Give them time to reset their release dates and fix some in-engine problems.

Is this a joke?

5.3 was months ago. The delay has already happened. No.

I think they should make this decision themselves. I will be okay if they'll delay release date if they'll realise they can't do it in time (don't want the Cyberpunk 2077 initial release mess in Square Enix edition), but otherwise I don't see a reason for early panic yet (though Japan goes trough new COVID restrictions recently so things can change any moment). They delayed 5.3 twice so I'm quite content they will delay 6.0 too if they find it necessary.

I would also say that Shadowbringers isn't lacking in content at all if you aren't interested only in one aspect of the game. Except for delayed (or cancelled, depending on how to look at it) 5.5 Ultimate they didn't give less, they gave more diverse content, and some of it likely required relocating resources/budget from other parts. Would be cool to have more of course, but generally I'm personally pretty satisfied with the expansion and have something to do every day and pretty much find it the best expansion so far, even if it had its own downsides.

So you want to delay content so that we don't get delayed content?

I’ll pass on this, no thanks!

Despite the delay having already happened, too. The forums are making my head hurt the last few days.
