Reader Discussion: How Do You Feel About Delays?

by Kyle Hilliard on Mar 28, 2015 at 11:28 AM

With the recent Zelda Wii U and Uncharted 4 delays (and to a lesser extent, Batman: Arkham Knight), it makes us wonder – how do you feel about them?

In general, I am perfectly happy to see a game delayed. It usually means some aspect of development is coming up short of expectations, so the team wants to take more time to make the game better. It still stings though, to hear you will have to wait even longer for your most anticipated game. I remember learning about Twilight Princess' delay and being embarrassingly heartbroken. I have similar feelings about Zelda Wii U, but I think the game will benefit as a result in the long run.

How do you feel about delays? No big deal? Or a knife to the gut?
