    Arguably Frostpunk 2 (console version) should probably be on this list. The PC version getting pushed back to September definitely resulted in the 2025 release date for the console version.

    Honestly as long as a better game comes out of it, I’m generally fine with delays as long as they aren’t indefinite or continual.

    Plus fuck knows how big my backlog already is laugh
    My backlog is huge. It's gonna take me years to finish it. Plus I don't get much time for gaming so it's gonna take even longer to finish.
    My gaming backlog for some reason consists of big RPGs that take forever, time is a scarcity with 2 young kids and a demanding wife... And Ive taken it upon myself to devote hours into 2 achievements with a 10+ TA Ratio to complete before 2025.

    Well I at least have the bonus there if not having and never wanting kids laugh
    Best of luck to you though, those high ratio achievements popping are always satisfying!

    Just so we're clear, I'm not complaining, actually wondering:

    How come devs so frequently make deadlines they can't meet and then delay the game? Why not just give themselves the extra time to begin with and if things go well "surprise its coming early" instead?
    Notice: Thank you for noticing this notice. I have noticed your noticing and shall notify those of note.

    Most of these release dates will still be moved and shuffled again based on GTA VI release date announcement. Even Fable date will most likely be decided after GTA VI. Every publisher would want to stay clear of the blast radius from GTA VI

    I assume its pressure from the publisher. Im in a construction business and if you said to me "this project will be done in 3 years from now on this date" I would roll my eyes in disbelief; it never happens, there are ALWAYS delays.

    Thankfully, I dont have kids. But school takes up alot of my time.

    Meh, I'd bet good money the majority of Sony fans can't even spell hypocrisy, they've been capping for Halo for over 20 years, they're getting it, and I guarantee that within a month they'll moan about some aspect of it.

    They're currently crying about various current and forthcoming Xbox exclusives they want, yet they've been bleating about exclusives across all 5 gens of PS since 1994.
