Let the free market do the yin & yang thing ... those that are really PO-ed about the delayed release won't buy the premium version, which let us be honest: it is a fraction of a fraction of a percent of all those who will ever play the game. The blog just provides a convenient & easy circuit to vent frustrations of the extreme of this group. More than likely, Peters game will generate a considerable income for him, just like it should. This is the third reiteration of this particular game, and he is long overdue for just compensation. In fact, I dare say that said compensation will encourage him to further develop the series for future chapters. Delayed for a few weeks, big friggin' deal. I've been waiting on D3 for years now; am I to throw a fit and declare that I'll never purchase and play the game? That's just childish. It's a shame to see where the evolution of our species is heading :( well, at least the youth, which is indirectly the future. Grow up you little brats!

Yes, we do expect to receive a lot of info about a game. Yes, we get angry about delays because we expect things to go as planned. But the correct response isn't to say that this isn't necessary. You say that we're spoiled, and that's probably true. But that doesn't mean that that game creators shouldn't try to please the majority who are spoiled. That's akin to saying that people today are spoiled by governments that try to help them and that no-one should complain if an oppressive regime takes control because that was what happened in the past. The wants of today, not yesterday, should be thought about. And yes, the game will probably have no less plays then before. The game will have probably the same amount of purchases. But an accurate measure should have been given. Within days of release, it is highly unlikely that a game is unforseeably delayed twice, one of which is for an indeterminate amount of time. Games have been delayed, but that occurs months or years before release. I play Starcraft 2 and am used to frequent delays from Blizzard. But within a few days of release, a designer should know if a game would be ready. Yes, we are coddled. Yes, we do expect to receive a lot of info about a game.

I guess it just makes sense now if it is released Monday. Be patient!
