Well I don't know about you but the things I enjoy include fun stuff like content, a good battle system etc.

Not dates. I mean if I enjoyed dates more than content I'd just buy a calendar and not an MMO.

They could have just given you neither, you lout. You're not exactly cracking a whip over their cubicles with your posts.

They could have just given me neither after promising several times that this content was coming and the game was going to be improved after admitting their initial failure and saying they would make it up to their loyal customers? Try again.

Some of you talk like SE isn't a business or something and I really find that amusing.

Oh and thanks for personally insulting me, that's very mature of you.

Sorry guys if I really cannot share your enthusism and positivism in the face of finally getting a release date...

From my personal point of view this was the lamest way to announce a delay I have ever seen. Yoshi sugar coated it in a Producer letter... the shortest letter ever. And right after announcing the date he slips in the possibility for a 1-2 days delay. But wait 2 days would mean saturday so let's say those 2 will be 4 and then we are close to the end of the month and surely another excuse to delay to the end of the month or even August will follow...

Sorry to be so negative but I ran out of optimism after reading the last couple of producer letters... One month delay is not the end of the world considering we are finally getting some content but what worries me is that when 1.18 is delayed like that, all the patches that follow will be delayed too. All they have given us so far is empty words and useless patches.

It is about time SE shows us some facts...

There's a large number of things SE can do with this game, not all of it to please you, at the end of the day, its their product, not yours. They could have halted on a date until the day of release, and you will still be complaining,

And you'll still complain once 1.18 is released, so I'm sure they're talking a longer view than satisfying the average forumgoer putting up threads about how SE is too slow and that soon Tera/GW2/Skyrim/Diablo, will be the game they will sever all social contact over.

I really don't know why do people think they're doing us a favor... GUYS IT'S THEIR JOB, THEY'RE GETTING A SALARY!
You know what normally happens if you have a 1 month of delay in your work? you end up homeless and starving. <3

That wasnt being positive, that was trying to 1 up someone who was barely off on how long since the last real patch was.

And here I was rushing THM to 50 before the patch, I will be there by the end of the weekend and have Archer damn near close by the time this patch comes out. Guess I can't really complain, atleast I have something to do in the mean time.

Another Yoshida letter, another disappointment.

Actually I've been quite happy with most letters because they tended to give us information that would at least justify the delays in some way. Or at the very least something NEW that we could peruse/discuss.

This one was just utter disappointment though. It's also crazy how he says July 21st as if this was the best date possible and manages to slip in another delay of a couple of days like it's never been delayed before.

I never said the game should please me, I said it should please their customers which it clearly is not. I'm one of those people that would rather not have a date than have a disappointing one, at least it's a surprise of sorts once it comes out.

I never mention any other game when I criticize this one and I feel the "MAKE IT LIKE WOW/TERA/FFXI" people are the most annoying users on the forums. Even more than the whiteknights like yourself. The reason I'm so passionate about this game is because I want to play THIS GAME, not Tera, SWTOR or something else.

But thanks for making biased assumptions about me for the sake of making them.
