Final Fantasy XV Officially Delayed

[Ragnarok]

While I'm a bit disappointed I won't get to play the game in September, I'm glad they have decided to take more time to make the game as good as possible. Two more months is not that long time in the end.

 

[AnGer-dono]

It's hard to tell right now, but in the end, a delay's only purpose is to get the game better, and that's that.

Well, yeah. Noone's going to deny that.

Been on other forums today and the vitriol is already being spewed forth. Good god, people, BE CIVIL WOULD YA.

Indeed, and to be fair, SE know that this game literally has to be the best game they've ever made, and live up to so many expectations, so at least we know they're trying hard to deliver that.

Yo Death Penalty, a request if I may:
Would you be willing to kind of time-stamp or just write down the points of the upcoming FFXV video where purely gameplay is shown. I can then edit the video splicing together just the gameplay segments so that people who want to avoid story spoilers/cutscenes can have something to watch if they wish?
Just a request, bro

Loving the fact that the old counter is still around, as well as the knew one. It tickled me.

 

[ChingleeTribal]

Just got the email from GAME UK, heh

Expected one from Square Enix Store first lol

I was depressed for a minute when I heard the delay confirmed, but now I am over it. I just want an amazing game with no bugs and that runs smooth and if a delay will make that a reality then its good.

Other forums are quite unreadable when it comes to this game. Here, posters write in complete - and coherent sentences.

I think two things will happen on release: the game will to review very well & the level of bile and stupidity on other forums may reach critical mass and become sentient.

Or it'll debut to 7s and 8s like FF13 did and an entirely different crew of idiots will lose their shit over that instead. You can't win, really.

It's clickbaity and beneath this place, but I'll post it anyway for those of us who kind of enjoy the spectacle when gamers go crazy over something. I admit it, it's a guilty pleasure of mine. Nice little compilation of meltdowns.

I (hope!) they've learned from FF13 and FF14 enough that this game gets Witcher 3-type scores. But your point is very well taken. We'll take solace in the fact that while game boards rage on, the grown-ups will be off enjoying the game.

lol i'm on there wasen't having any meltdown though.

 

[Lulcielid]

So long as we remember that the reviews come from a single staff member of their respective site there should be no meltdown...

 

[Squirrel Emperor]

If you're gonna launch a game that needs a super big day one patch, then you probably shouldn't release it just yet.

Well, you were just replying to someone else's crazy.

The game is done already, I feel 2 months is enough to iron out everything.

TBH, this annoys me more than anything that happened over the weekend. Would they have posted something like this if the delay was false and look down on all the people insisting it was real? No they wouldn't >< They got called a bunch of names on the internet for reporting "news" and now they're peering down on us (the upset people) because they were right? They could have come out of this as the bigger people. However, this seems a very base thing to do.

Although these types of things get under my skin so don't mind this. What I made bold in the quote is 100% true.

Well, it works both ways. That dude also got inundated with insults and threats just for breaking the news. I don't blame him for dropping a bit of a "fuck you" bomb back.

Can do. You sure you want to brave a spoiler minefield like that?

I feel alot better after watching Tabata's statement earlier today. To hear that the master version is complete and they want to integrate the day one patch into the disc, I think is admirable in a day and age of huge patches for games.

I'll be the first to admit I get tired of switching on my PS4 to a load of updates. I have faith in Tabata and believe this is a good thing in the long run.

I will let kingsglaive and brotherhood tide me over in the meantime, as well as all the other games coming in the near further. I'll have a great December and Christmas to look forward to with KH2.8 and FFXV!
