I realy wonder if this extended date is due to how bad Blizzard is making them look atm and them trying to do a similar course correction. Say what you want about WoW, but they really did take a step back, evaluate their situation and are going all in and making increasingly better changes, systems and content while SE is coasting on mostly glams and nostalgia at this point. Heck even the FFXI team is making the FFXIV team look kinda bad. I can feel real passion coming from the FFXI crew, where Yoshida and co. is just giving half hearted PR speak
