I have a hard time visualizing what kind of quality difference six weeks could really have on a game of this scope and size. One less bug is one less bug but still... Maybe I'm thinking in too linear a fashion.
I suppose it's probably more productive to think of it not like six weeks, but 100,000+ man hours.
John Epler did state that one month of pre-release bug stomping is equivalent to a year of post-relase bug patching.
Not exactly. We already knew back when they announced the Collector's edition that there'll be a day one dlc with an exclusive squadmate.http://www.pcgamer.c...rs-get-it-free/
From Ashes was announced 2 weeks before release. I said never again. So this hinges on weather i'm waiting for the Ultimate/Platinum/Gold/Complete/GOTY edition.
18th. The 21st is for the EU.
I'm an European.
Really awesome polishing metal analogy. Married to a blacksmith I get it. Now, on to the romances... 
For some people during crunch that is equal to two and a half months...
Picture what you can do in 2 and a half months when you are focused.
For me personally, that's a lot of cheetos and butt scratching.

I can imagine... I can also imagine the stress and anxiety too. I've been through said stress and anxiety...
Why....why did this have to happen?
I think I'm going to go crawl in a hole somewhere, and sleep for days....
dammit its like they are pretending they dint know i had the week off for this 
As a wife of a game developer, I understand the struggle of "crunch time" and how it really affects everyone who is working on the game--NOT just the devs, but their spouses, kids, friends and other family as well. It's TOUGH. Adding an extra 5 weeks of crunch onto a team of devs is so rough for everyone involved, and I really feel for the families.
I really appreciate all of the hard work by the DA team! Much
to you guys. Can't wait for the game in November
Seconding this. All the to the DA:I team, who are working nights and weekends to get us something amazing.
Baby sloths make everything better. IT'S SCIENCE.
That blows.

Stop presses. I thought they weren't doing DLC companions. If you tell me I've been misled I'll ... realize that the world is working just like it always does and shut up.
I understand it gives more time to polish but I couldn't wait till October! I was set to have a blast, I really can't wait for this game. Till November then...

1,000 Likes on BSN just by being a smartass! Totally applicable life skills.
You might want to look at the 2nd E3 video again. They were hanging ropes. Nice troll try, though.
Sorry, i was referring to ME3. They announced a dlc squadmate back when they announced the Collector's.Stop presses. I thought they weren't doing DLC companions. If you tell me I've been misled I'll ... realize that the world is working just like it always does and shut up.

Well I sure wish there'd been some kind of press release. This is literally my first hint of this.
...I guess I would have liked to play this sooner, but at this point I really don't care. I'm feeling major meh right now.
*cries*
Do you need some tissues, I'm going to wal-mart to pick up like 50 boxes for myself I'll send some your way.
There are no hanging ropes here.
You should look at the video I mentioned, and not a screenshot you keep assuming validates your opinion. It's already been proven.

Bioware doesn't make those anymore. Their last one was DA:O.
I suspect if you want the DA I DLC, you're going to have to pay the $25-$30 extra bucks (freaking $50 in ME3's case).

Sadly I spent about $200 on ME3 and somehow got my money's worth. I play BioWare games too many times.
Thanks for ME3 by the way Brian. It has the honor of staying in my PS3 disc drive for months as I plow through games for my recently purchased PS4, but before that it got some serious work.
The delay doesn't worry me from the point of view in getting the game a little bit later. This way it actually doesn't clash with Evolve as badly, which is the other main game I am interested in this year.
There is a bit of worry that Bioware needed more than a months time, but felt they couldn't ask for more or were not given it, because of the prior delay. It would be really nice to think this is because they are slotting in multiplayer but I get the impression if they announce multiplayer now the forum will go absolutely ballistic. Whether or not it had anything at all to do with the delay.
Of course now Murpheys law says Evolve is delayed a month.
