Because those other games don't keep delaying the game just before it comes out. They just don't set a date and keep working on it. Doing that too many times leads from to the perception that something worse is going on than 'net code problems' and they're not mentioning it. Besides the nondescript 'engine issues' they only piped up about now. That, and the communication problems. Forum staff were denying reports of a delay just hours ahead of the actual delay's announcement last year, which was for the same reasons as this last delay. It's not a manner of the length of time as much, I think. Indeed. And finally we can't forget that Inafune has pretty much used up a lot of his good will. You can argue exactly which things that might involve but the main thing that I'd point out as the major one is the whole Red Ash debacle. Might not have been as bad if MN9 had come out on the second date they gavr but here we are. |

I think I'll wait for some time, maybe until July of this year, before I start guessing on whether March 2017 would be close enough to when the game will be released.
Who knows? They may yet add more things, or spend extra time improving upon features already in the game.

It always takes time to build a game, many games have been rushed out the door to meet a deadline and then patched immensely after. It's a problem that is plaguing the industry today.
The release date of March 2017 may just be a placeholder, and given the amount of content they're putting into Bloodstained, it'll most likely release sometime later than that; But you never know.

Some things I think some people are underestimating/missing when talking so certainly about, say, Fall 2018:
1. More money DOESN'T mean faster work, but it CAN mean more people working on it. They got a LOT of money from us, not to mention other parties. Who the hell knows how big of a team they can eventually get?
2. This isn't 1996. What I mean by that is, in many ways, game design is much more expedited. Technology is faster. Rendering/animating is probably easier once you get started because you don't need to hand draw as much. SINGLE PEOPLE can do rather amazing things in game design that would've taken entire teams to do as quickly 20 or even 10 years ago.
3. I honestly feel like game design is a snowball process. Getting started is slooooow, but then the more stuff is built, the faster the creation becomes for like, a million different reasons.
4. Different stretch goals affect different people. I'm thinking with regards to music in particular; the wonderful musicians can, and for all we know ARE, working on their side of things already concurrently. It's not two completely linear paths of "Okay, art is done, now music." It's all being worked on simultaneously, I'd imagine.
I could easily see late '17/early '18 and yes, maybe later, but I also think some people are being excessively pessimistic in the alleged name of pragmatism. If someone like IGA, who's forgotten more about this process than 99.999% of us will ever learn, can't speak to anything for certain, how the heck are some people here doing that with so much confidence?
