I won't lie, I'm a bit disappointed because I've been really looking forward to this game, but I get that it needs more time to be polished and to reduce crunch, which is important for everyone involved.
Honestly, I'm not surprised it got pushed back. An October to December release wouldn’t have left much time to build hype for the collector's edition or for pre-orders. What does surprise me is that the delay is so short—I would have been devastated if it was pushed to July 2025. I can't handle another wait like we had with RDR2.
I have full confidence in Warhorse, and I know they're doing their best. So take the time you need.
