{Edit}: Utterly pointless one liner & emoji post removed. It also "broke" the screen by being too long of a single line of text. So don't do that again please.~ Psycho 101

Scared of Persona 5 Razz

Delays are generally fine for the most part. More time to get the game right, which was apparently running poorly (hard to believe given the 10 year development time). It just makes them look foolish after making a big deal out of the release date back in June.

How dare they try to overshadow KH 2.8(specifically Aqua in 0.2). I would have been fine with a mid November release, but to potentially have it in the same week as 2.8(stated to be early December by Nomura and Yasue)? Very disrespectful to my waifu. Should have just delayed the game to January then(screw the forecast).

Considering November 29th is close to the end of my school term, that means I have all winter break for the game. No complaints here.

On a serious note, the reason he gave was kinda cool. Wanting everyone to get the game as perfect as you can without the need for patching. I am aware there's still people out there who can't afford the internet fees.

When all is said and done, I've waited 10 years. Two more months is not a problem.

That's okay! Out of everyone, the development team wants the game to be released, but it should be the best it can be. After over ten years of work, it's a reasonable decision to push back the release date and work out any finishing touches. The reception from Gamescom would be a test to see how the game may turn out to players.

sigh my vacation on October 2nd will be useless now. I can't take it around the end of november and december since holiday season starts and they don't let us request off or take vacations around then.

As much as I can understand they are trying to make it as best as possible.... they had 10 years. Bleh

As some people have said, 2 more months after waiting 10 years isn't that big of a deal. I personally welcome this, since I pre-ordered the mortage edition, 2 more months to save up!

Better this than some buggy broken unplayable thing that the industry has gotten so used to plopping on its fans and promising to fix "later." Do it once do it right.

lol this game man. It probably needed another setback to humble Square Enix and Sony again after they started getting a little cocky with the hype marketing and all the needless bells and whistles they added onto it and it pays not to rush a game like this if you know it'll just need to be patched and be a disaster which it wouldn't surprise me if it does. The game has taken 10 years to come out now, everybody from the developers to the fans ought to still remember that.

I have a feeling this is truly one of the reasons they delayed it

Well geez man, it's gone through several phases and periods of reconstruction since then. The notion of it taking 10 years to come out is false because the game it is now isn't the game that was original conceived 10 years ago. If you really want an accurate timeline for this current game than it starts around 2011. And how did they get cocky? I really want to know. They're simply putting confidence in this game because that's what a FF has lacked for many iterations now. This is the first installment in awhile that all of the developers working on it seem proud of what they've done. Don't confuse arrogance and commitment.
