If you did take off now you know, next time wait a week or 2 or take off the third week.

Personally it's sad it's getting delayed but I can immensely respect Yoshida for how he did it and why. I'd also rather see the final expansion of this storyline done right, 1-2 week delay means nothing.
In fairness, SE has been pretty decent when it comes to releasing FF XIV's expansions. This is the first time (as far I can remember at least) they have officially announced the release date for an expansion for this game and didn't quite meet it. Some may say "well, they've delayed stuff before because <insert random reason here>!" in regards to patch content, but that's not really what I'm talking about. They set an official release date for Endwalker. They didn't quite follow through this time, which is a first. But they were very open about it so as irritated as I might have been at the time and others continue to be, I respect them even more for delaying it to make some finishing touches, even if some of them weren't that important in the bigger picture. This just gives me more time to catch up on my gaming backlog I guess. lol
