Then again ... Paradox is handling support, no? As well they are in Sweden, yes? A land of goats, alcohol, and no holiday tradition whatsoever ... well, and a few car manufacturers, but I'm sure they don't celebrate Santa's birthday ... perhaps PoE will indeed release on Shady's birthday, Tuesday before Jesus H. Christmas. No ... I'm sticking with January. 

All Stop. On Screen.

November 26th of 2014

 

I've also like to ask some questions, as I have just registered yesterday to this site. I am looking to purchase the game for $35.00 but I've also wan't to play the BETA which is over $100 with other stuff, is there anyway I can get the game + BETA key only?

 

Thanks

having not read the thread, am simply gonna observe that we thinks if obsidian misses holiday shopping season, then there ain't much reason to get the thing out in january, and we suspect that obsidian will miss christmas 2014.  the gameplay demo were needing to be extreme scripted 'cause it weren't actual ready for public consumption. no looting corpses. no magic. no clicky o' priest, wizard or many other classes. no races save halloween and human. current build would seem to be rough. am suspecting that beta will raise many concerns obsidian hadn't considered. 

 

conversely, unlike wasteland 2 beta, there will be no additional money resulting from the beta. perhaps obsidian cannot go much past november/december.

 

choices. first day o' spring in 2015 is 20 March 2015, yes? tuesday before that is 17 march 2015. last possible winter 2015 tuesday is 17 march 2015. oh well, am gonna go cautious. what is first tuesday o' the 3rd fiscal quarter? april 5, 2015? hmmm. our sense o' whimsy notices the proximity o' april fool's day-- too tempting. so, our guess is 1 April 2015.

 

HA! Good Fun!

I wanted Nov 18th.. but I will settle for Nov 11th since that was taken.. :)

From George Ziets @ http://new.spring.me/#!/user/GZiets/timeline/responses

Didn’t like the fact that I don’t get XP for combat. While this does put more emphasis on solving quests, the lack of rewards for killing creatures makes me want to avoid combat (the core activity of the game) as much as I can.

Sensuki you should prolly update the OP with the list of taken dates.

 

Also I'm almost certain that the week of December the 9th or the following week of the 16th is going to be Dragon Age Inquisition's fallback release date since it's delayed to December now and that period's the sweet spot.  Bioware also releases on Tuesdays.

 

 

There's no way Obsidian will want Pillars going head to head with Dragon Age on the Steam charts, I thought that was one of the reasons they were releasing in December in the first place, because DA:I is the biggest potential sales sucker on the calendar this year and it was originally slated for October.  

 

Even if it is released on the 9th, only a 7 day gap b4 Inquisition is not ideal for the marketers, they'll def be saying PoE needs to be shifted to give it breathing room from Inquisition in terms of press and a uninhibited place on the Steam rankings.  

 

The release will probably be the previous tuesday's December the 2nd or else November's last tuesday, or even earlier perhaps.

You can have the same date as someone else.

I can't. You can't edit your posts after like 30 minutes. A moderator has to do it for me.

Didn't know about DA:I's delay (as I don't read Dragon Age news).

ic.  Well that's just awkward 

 

Sorry I'm wrong as well, Dragon Age is delayed to November 18th, not to as late as possible before Christmas, so the release date schedule is unchanged.

 

Put me down for the 16th, but the 9th looks rock solid then.  9th as the most likely date followed by the 16th depending on whether there's a major release on the 16th this year. 

 

 

My other prediction is that they'll literally choose the date at the last second to "dodge" any major releases even if the game is finished on schedule.   We'll see how that one comes out.

Everyone who didn't say December 14th is simply wrong. It's December 14th. I used a time machine and checked. 

"Good thing I don't heal my characters or they'd be really hurt." Is not something I should ever be thinking.

December the 14th is a Sunday.

 

 

The only countries in the world where video games are released on Sunday make kids go to school on Saturday.  Otherwise Western corporations frown on the practice of having a truck deliver a crate of video games to a store on Friday, and telling the store they absolutely mustn't sell any of them on Saturday, their busiest trading day of the week.  

 

Well done thanks for playing.

Anyone who accidentally picked a weekend can re-vote.

 

Regarding opt-outs. It should be fine if you're on a date with multiple people (no pun intended), but if you're the only person that got it there's not really much point opting out.

My time Machine was damaged; I'm sorry everyone. It's fixed now; so don't worry. I rechecked and poe will not be released in 2014 at all... It will be released on June 9th 2089. Get ready for a long wait.
