Translations (JP to English)

HThe game originally planned to launch in Jan or Feb

It never had an original release date.

It never had an original release date.

While you are right there wasn't a set date, there were approximate times given
for example http://gdl.square-enix.com/ffxiv/dow...Roadmap_EN.pdf

Doesn't look like summer is anywhere near there even if you add 2.5 months to it.

Yeah, most interpreted "Post January" as it will be released in January, February and somehow people got the idea that March would be the latest it'll be released due to them wanting to have certain technical aspects completed by then. All it really means is that they wanted the game to be released after January 2013.

Admitted delay is not the actual delay. When it comes to SE, they're always minimizing it. I wouldn't be suprised at all if it's going to be another 2.5 months on top of the first 2.5 extra months. I'm suprised there is no thread yet with bets placed on when 2.0 comes out.

Inb4 releasing too late, games going to die, everyone's going to lose interest comments.

Thanks for translating as usual Reinheart.

[Mug]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the "original" release date sometime at the end of this year?

[Zezlar]

Beta needs to be longer then 2-3 months. So really summer fits.

How about we leave the translation thread for translations, guys? Hmm? Make sense?

I don't want to sound weird or anything, but I might have a slight man-crush on Yoshi-P.

How do Japanese photographers make people look so awesome?
