Was that really necessary? Why make a thread to **** about something that the Mods already locked a thread to prevent further ****ing?

Why do they call it Holiday Season anyway?

It's not as if it has any holidays...or does it?

Last time a mod gave a tentative timeframe he said the "end of january" which is rather disappointing and makes me wonder what kind of disastrous bug could have caused this much of a delay on such a small DLC. Pity, because I would have really liked to play Return to Ostagar in my current playthrough
.
Anyway, all we can do is wait and see. I'm sure that people at Bioware are just as disappointed as we are. Starting the end of January it'll be quite a busy season for gamers (starting with Mass Effect 2 until the big clusterfu** that will be march, with basically every AAA title in the works hitting at once).The holiday season was a great timeframe to release the DLC, commercially-wise, i can definitely see this delay hurting sales of RtO quite a bit.

The big three: Christmas, the Jewish one that they don't even know how to spell, and Kwanza.

The two last ones aren't so important, but the first is the second most important holiday (after Easter) celebrated by pretty much all denominations of Christianity; one of the most, if not the most dominant world religion. The holiday was celebrated with finding minor presents in stockings at first, then somehow a big pine tree in your livingroom with presents underneath got involved. Now it's an excuse for capitolists to make lots of money, and money is all anyone cares about. The holiday quickly got burried under the massive spending, and now we call it the holiday season so noone will get offended because the marketers don't want to lose money by mentioning the holiday that brought them the money in the first place.
