Avoiding the megaton that is FF7 remake.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Why is this dune quote making the rounds?

How is it tiring? Just play other stuff or take a break from gaming until it releases, simple.

They don't owe us anything.

You seem to be misunderstanding me. I'm not particularly hyped for Cyberpunk, haven't even watched a single trailer, nor do I know anything about the game.
I'm talking about these sort of excuses in general. It's fine if they have internal targets, but I wish they would just hold off on public release dates until they are sure.

 

[Hostile_18]

Man I got two days off work one for Cyberpunk, one for Last of Us 2 (before delay).... fml

 

[GrayChild]

Doom Eternal - Delayed from November to March
Last of Us 2 - Delayed from February to May
Final Fantasy VII - Delayed from March to April
Cyberpunk - Delayed from April to September

Then Capcom comes in with its big fucking black dick and is like

April 3rd. No delays. Boom.

CDPR got scared when they saw my boy Nemmy in action. No one stands a chance against him and the CAPGODS! <3

[TeamGhobad]

does this mean they will be at e3?

 

[DragoonKain]

It sucks, but I always just want the game to be right at release, I’ll put up with any delays. Also just looking at it, it “feels” like a Fall game. Popping in and playing as the weather stays to turn from warm to crisp.... ahhh. Gonna be some great Fall nights playing it for hours,

 

[Fbh]

I'm fine with this.
There were too many games close to each other and I couldn't afford them all.
Now I can actually consider getting FF7 Remake at launch.

 

[Jigsaah]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

*deep breath*


ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

It's software development. Shit happens, sometimes things take longer than you expect, sometimes there is feature creep, sometimes there are certain bugs that take longer to solve than expected, etc, etc.

Saying to a bunch of software developers and artists they have unlimted time and no deadline is suicide. They need to set a date to bring everyone in line and give them a good proverbial kick up the arse.

 

[Bartski]

not surprised at all. We would be seeing ads everywhere already if this decision hadn't been made a while ago. Also, I'm 100% ok with it, getting a better game this way aren't we?

 

[GHG]

CDPR is waiting to reveal the ultimate betrayalathon : Gone exclusive to Stadia

This is some dark shit right here.

Should we tell them about Valve delaying Half-Life: Alyx next?

 

[un1que]

Gutted but kinda glad as well. More polish and a next gen launch game! Yes please.

 

[TeamGhobad]

hopefully they can take this time and add things they took out.

 

[Celcius]

I was literally just joking with my friends that this will probably get delayed and then a few minutes later one of them checks the internet and sees this lol.
At least this gives nvidia more time to release the RTX 3080 Ti first.

 

[MiyazakiHatesKojima]

does this mean they will be at e3?

For sure, and they'll bring Keanu Reeves to pander to the morons by telling them how breathtaking they are for accepting the delay.

Should we tell them about Valve delaying Half-Life: Alyx next?

LMAO That's definitely next in line to get delayed til 2021 at the very least.

 

[LOLCats]

Holy crap, i just (yesterday) used my bing rewards to pre order it lololol.

 

[blackjon24]

Thanks a lot square Enix!!

It's a great quote lol. I'm just laughing at how it's being spread around so much. Must be some weird guerilla marketing by Warner Bros for the upcoming Dune film this year.....

 

[Bartski]

same here

 

[Javthusiast]

Kitase and Nomura upon reading the tweet.

 

[Deleted member 471617]

Not surprised one bit. Been saying it since E3 2019. And once FF7R was delayed to April, Cyberpunk 2077 getting delayed was pretty much guaranteed. They did it announce the delay sooner than I was expecting though.

Either way, great news for me. All I need now is for them to announce confirmation of a next gen port for launch or early 2021 and I'll be good to play.

 

[Sakura]

Sure. Which is why they could use internal targets. Why announce April 2020, a year beforehand? Especially when you have a track record of not meeting your release dates? Just say 2020. They would've known a couple months ago whether or not it would make April. If it was going to make it, at that point they could release a new trailer and say, hey April!!
Whatever, it's not a big deal, I just find it annoying how often games are delayed, and feel like they should stop announcing concrete release dates so far in advance.

 

[GymWolf]

And what makes you think that they aren't readying up a new gen version at the same time?

yeah they sure do, don't change the fact that the game as to come out on old gen too.

 

[imsosleepy]

Lmao. RE 3 is next. They didn't want go up against FF7R and who can blame them.

i was honestly more suprised with ff7r putting their date so close to cyberpunk

 

[Soleil rouge]

This news sucks....but I'll allow it.

CDPR has earned our respect. Looks like another Witcher 3 playthrough is in order.

 

[TheSweeper]

I'm really sad about this delay. Should've seen it coming but I kinda hoped that they were sure when they announced the release date. I trust CDPR, so I'm certain its the right decision but man, patience has never been a strengh of mine and I was so looking forward to playing this game.

I guess I'll start another playthrough of the Witcher then. Seems like I'll have the time.

 

[Southern Gentleman]

It's a great quote lol. I'm just laughing at how it's being spread around so much. Must be some weird guerilla marketing by Warner Bros for the upcoming Dune film this year.....

I was already hyped for Dune and have been for a while. The book may be impossible to adapt perfectly, but if there's one director who's right for the job, it's my boy Villeneuve.

 

[magnumpy]

game should be called Cyberpunk 2078 now

 

[TheGreatYosh]

Wow. This will cost them some double dippers. I will just wait for the PS5 version.

 

[Lionel Richie]

I suppose it was inevitable, I mean it feels like it was.

 

[JohnnyFootball]

The big winner here is Doom Eternal. Congratulations to id and Bethesda.

 

[New Yorks Finest]

This could be the launch date for Scarlet, there's no way I'm getting the turd ver when Scarlets might be out Sep-Nov

 

[Fake]

The big winner here is Doom Eternal. Congratulations to id and Bethesda.

Until gets another delay.

 

[Smaller than Atom]

Booooo! Boooooo!

 

[HotPocket69]

Is the FF7 remake really going to be that big?

I feel like it’s tailor made for people that grew up with the original version and anyone younger than that won’t give a shit.

 

[Belmonte]

At this point I'm starting to hype 2021.

 

[kraspkibble]

Oh fuck right off CDPR.

Just leave it until a few months then tell us eh?

Way to kill any excitement I had.

 

[mortal]

Relax lol. Would you rather they release a buggy or unfinished mess of a game?

 

[Kadayi]

Partly disappointed, but at the same time, the game should be polished as fuck by then, so it's all good in the long term.

 

[SantaC]

In time for new graphics cards

 

[sertopico]

I knew it.

 

[Rodolink]

And then next gen consoles come in december with a better version of the game making this release worthless.

 

[Oddspeak]

Not surprised, to be honest. Cyberpunk is the type of game that just screamed "one more delay."

I'm just glad it's on the other side of Summer instead of in the middle of it. Summer looks more and more like valuable "catch up" time.

What does delaying the game accomplish? I love what we've seen from the trailers.
