Dark Road's delays shouldn't affect Missing-Link considering the game portion was finished and the team relieved fairly early on, and then it was just down to the animators finishing up the story scenes.Considering how delayed the Dark Road finale was, I will be surprised if this even comes out by the end of the fiscal year. At this rate I'm expecting it next fall.
Yeah that's right. The trailer said there'd be a Closed Beta Test in 2022. Then Nomura's remarks in a Famitsu interview narrowed that down to Fall.Also wasn't the only indication of a Fall beta like...one interview?
Oh, almost guaranteed.It just occurred to me that the Beta could be Japan exclusive.
Why do they do this? I know that things like "Coming this fall!" build hype but stretching things out till the last second kills hype.Yeah that's right. The trailer said there'd be a Closed Beta Test in 2022. Then Nomura's remarks in a Famitsu interview narrowed that down to Fall.
It's frustrating when companies use differing calendars all the time to stretch seasons and timeframes to match their claims.
They once said announcements for 3 was “coming this winter” in 2016 they missed it completely. Game dev is hard as things change all the time, they can fall behind, and internal dates get pushed. It does suck being a fan and being in the dark because you’re left in this situation where we are all scratching our heads in confusion.Why do they do this?

If they instead said "Coming this winter!" they could gain a lot of good will if development went smoothly and release it on the first day of winter or if development was going slower they would have a whole season where they could still keep their promise instead of having to rely on things like financial calendars to say that technically they didn't break their timeline promise.
After dark road, I do not read the release dates anymore.They once said announcements for 3 was “coming this winter” in 2016 they missed it completely. Game dev is hard as things change all the time, they can fall behind, and internal dates get pushed. It does suck being a fan and being in the dark because you’re left in this situation where we are all scratching our heads in confusion.
If that was the plan, then they should have indicated it. I’ll be pissed (but not surprised) if it ends up being Japan exclusive.It just occurred to me that the Beta could be Japan exclusive.
Even if it was a japan exclusive, wouldn't we hear about it from Japanese people?If that was the plan, then they should have indicated it. I’ll be pissed (but not surprised) if it ends up being Japan exclusive.
If it is closed, then no. People tend to be rather strict about following any closed beta guidelines if they aren’t allowed to share.Even if it was a japan exclusive, wouldn't we hear about it from Japanese people?
