tripleRRR Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 Because that is when they think it will be done at this time. Until then their release date will be accepted as holy writ, then they will delay it and everyone will moan and complain. Such is the way of game boards everywhere. TripleRRR Using a gamepad to control an FPS is like trying to fight evil through maple syrup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit of a newb to RPG-scene, but when Obsidian was known as Black Isle, did they meet their dead-lines?

nightcleaver Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 They'll meet the release date. Whether or not they push back the release date, though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kefka Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 They'll meet the release date. Whether or not they push back the release date, though.... They could push the release date forward. See, I'm an optimist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 For the most part yes. TripleRRR Funny that. I don't remember a single game going out on time from BIS. The only games I know for sure about though are PS:T which was delayed some six months from the original estimation and IWD2 that was also delayed quite a bit (though that was to work in a new ruleset and stuff like that). So in my experience, timeliness was never a BIS-trait. Making good games, however, was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volourn Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 No they didn't. BIS games were delayed many times. Many, many times. See IWD2 which was DELAYED months as just ONE example. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malfidae Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 I'm fairly certain even the original IWD was delayed. If Sith Lords is delayed it will probably be for a good reason. I rather have a better game later than a buggy game sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoGuE JeDi Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 So in my experience, timeliness was never a BIS-trait. Making good games, however, was. In that case, I won't have any complaints at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
