Well, since I'm a mod, I'd laugh evilly. Of course.
In any case, there is a big difference between reasonable expectations of promises and those that are deserved. When Marcin said there wouldn't be in any more delays, it was his -to him- reasonable belief that the game was on schedule. At least, his stated belief.
But there is no way he could foresee what would come up months and months later. And there is no way for him to totally control what happens on such an ambitious undertaking.
This is not like when you promise to take out the garbage. Or promise to be faithful to your girlfriend/boyfriend.
This is much more complex. And much easier to get wrong.
It's why so many creative entities just don't make those kind of statements - certain fans will take them as the equivalent of guarantees and become quite upset if they turn out to be less than accurate. For whatever reason.
SHould they have said, "no more delays"? Probbbably not. Will they next time? Probbbbaly not. So next time it will probably be, "well, we'll be done when we're done."
Arguably they are already doing that - note how very, very closemouthed they are on CP2077. And I suspect that is for the best.
IMO they should only show in their videos what will certainly make to the final game and give only information that they know will reflect game on release.I hate when Bioware shows me bunch of stuff in their videos and then delay game for a whole month only to cut those things and give zero shit and touch to PC controls.I know CD Projekt Red is not Bioware (and I'm immensely grateful for that) but they should (I can't force them of course and anyone who attacks me because I allegedly force them to do something is silly) give us more info about:
1)game's current state
2)what caused delay
3)and will it have impact on game and if yes in which way (aka will there be visual downgrade,cut areas and so on).
