    I'd say Blizz is good for 6 months cause you bought its recent transmog deal.

    BFA is widely considered one of the worst expansions ever made. They bled subs . It was garbage . There is no way in hell Blizzard can afford, reputation wise or monetarily , another BFA . Especially directly after this last debacle. If they release this expansion too early with too many flaws. they will never live it down .

    Yet if this was the case and they woudlve announced a release by early december. Yet they havent... Which means they are still unsure when they CAN release the expansion.

    and my logic is that if they are still unsure when they CAN release it even today. That would indicate that they have alot of stuff left to do. Its not in their marketing interest to hold on the release date for no reason.

    I'm more amazed this thread didn't appear the day the new 6 month promo started.


    And it's also 100% BS. There isn't enough wrong in Shadowlands to push the game back an entire half a year. Maybe into January if they decide to get frisky and redesign a Zone or something, but for sure this will be out before March.

    November is heaped up on games I need to play so if Shadowlands is pushed back until Spring then I am all for it lol

    For FFXIV players, a release that comes before or after early December would be ideal. That's why the late October release date sounded cool. If theories are correct and they aim for early December, players will have to choose between expansion launch and new FFXIV raid tier.

    Don't they have to refund people's money if they release after 12/31/2020?

    Perfect example of why they should release when done and not before. Thanks for making the point.

    They took preorders with a "2020 release" promised. If they don't get it out before the end of the year, they'll face legal problems, particularly in Europe.

    It was one of the reasons the Doom Eternal soundtrack thing happened, ID had to get the soundtrack out ASAP because they promised it in the preorders.

    One should hope it'll be in a better state than Wc3:R.
    They've already offered refunds regarding consumer protection laws, they're not entitled to do anything more than that now.

    Also, more games are releasing in 2021. So it doesn't matter when they release it. They will be up against other games. They will push it out in 2020 because they do not want the bad PR that comes with a 2nd delay.
    Sigh.....you and everyone else knew/knows what i am talking about. Yes , they could shorten the pre patch event.

    2nd delay bad pr...have you ever heard of a little title called cyberpunk. And if they launch a more complete shadowlands it would be better as a broken shadowlands.

    And your: but in 2021 there are also games. Yes, hitman 3 in januari , and farcry 6 in februari. So thats 2 whole games, and would even argue that hitman will and is a great game. But its a more niche game then the other games. If you read my list ( the part you did not qoute) you see if they launch shadowlands near the end of november/early december they will be up against 3 HUGE AAA hype titles and 2!!!!!!! freaking new console's ( with games on them 2). Hell even final fantasy has a launch in december i think.

    This all does not mean they should not, or should release it. Or that its stupid or smart. I am just saying, the competition is extremly heavy. And every fault they launch with because they want to rush it and launch it with all these titles. Will make the game look more broken next to all this big as gaming titles.

    Let me put it this way: if you could play valhala, cyberpunk or 1 of the 2 new consoles or watch dogs legion or a broken, not really done product called shadowlands...what will you choose?

    They don't have to. But they will be obligated to, when requested. Thing is, they already do it.

    Actually they do have to in many countries or they face still penalties due to consumer laws.

    Exactly my feeling.

    Shadowlands.Because single player game can wait and does not revolves around keeping in touch with your guildmates to be ready for raiding

    I think they'll fall back to their original "On or before December 31st" release date.

    Spring? Sign me in, enough time to play through all the new releases before SL comes out.

    They already offered to refund people... technically they don't have to release it this year at all, they offered all of us an "out".

    I didn't say slaves wouldn't pay more if just wow team dared to charge more, but for HS that game has been a money grab from the beginning and it has a community that endorses that.
