Now answer me this: What exactly would they benefit from less vague dates when in fact only the topic of bitching would change? From "what do they mean by <vague date>" to "they broke their prommise!!1" when the tentative date doesn't hold after all.
People will "bitch" either way, but then I don't think people are bitching half as much as people like yourself like to point out. I see nothing wrong with some healthy discussion as long as people are polite.

Anyway, if I was Yoshida I would first and foremost give myself more time to get a patch out. And if, by chance, they get it ready earlier, they could release it ahead of time and we'd all be cheering them on instead of getting annoyed that they're delaying stuff again.

I also think that when he decides to give us an idea about when something is coming out, he could use terms like "sometime between the 10th and 20th of December" rather than saying stuff like "roughly ten days after late-november". It's not the first time he has done this. It all started with the infamous "before the end of summer".

This is not me "bitching". I'm just coming up with suggestions that would, in my opinion, help the situation.
