I would really like to see some more information as to whats going on so we can weight in on how to support this situation. So we can take a logical approach and less of a fanboy / hopes and dreams approach. We all want this and want it yesterday, and to be the best. We also would like more information as to what happened, what changed, are bugs just more, is tweaking processes more in-depth. If the story and game is complete, is this character balance issues? . I can be a journalist if you like. I have 0 instagram followers, so i'm as much an influencer as 99% of anyone else on instagram.
Point being, pushing out release but allowing the most critical people access at the original timeline sucks. I love the videos released showing how vested devs are and how excited they are. I am not doubting the excitement and drive to make this the best possible release, but a cookie cutter response that feigns concern for a group, then immediately puts them beneath another group sounds disingenuous. I'm honestly surprised you are still picking dates rather than 'Q4' or end of the year. If Covid is actually a cause, how will a second wave incoming push out things further? I'm sure i'll still be playing the game, its more a question if I wait for a sale or buy it day 1. I'm excited for release, but indifferent as to when I play it. I'm sure I will get around to it eventually. I think between everyone canceling things, pushing things back and saying "in these troubling times we..." its tiring. I've yet heard anyone say, hey, we know stuff sucks, so we pushed something out early but unfinished so you can enjoy it while things continue being terrible. I understand that may not be the model CDPR follows, and may be for good reason. At least it is nicer weather right now so we can go outside..
The press release, distilled down, sounds a lot like; Hey, we are pushing stuff back. We are also still giving access to not you on the original timeline and not pushing them back. The game is done though (trust us, it totally is) and here is another date that we give 50-50 chance of moving. Sorry, but the first thing that came to mind was.. "Your call is important to us... Please remain on the line."
