CD Projekt red has announced that the upcoming Witcher sequel, Wild Hunt, as been delayed until February to reach it's "Maximum Potential". The game was originally expecting a 2014 release. However, this turns out not be the case.
CD projeckt wrote an open letter to fans explaining exactly why the game had been delayed.
" We knew this to be an ambitious plan, but believed we could achieve it by bringing together our team with its creative energies and current gaming platforms with their technical capabilities. A project this vast and complex would inevitably require special care in its final stages, manual fine-tuning of many details, thorough testing time and again.
"We recently reexamined what we had achieved thus far, and faced a choice about the game’s final release date. The decision we made was difficult, thoroughly considered, and ultimately clear and obvious. We could have released the game towards the end of this year as we had initially planned. Yet we concluded that a few additional months will let us achieve the quality that will satisfy us, the quality gamers expect from us. Consequently, we have set the release of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt for February 2015.
"Dear gamers - we know many of you would have liked to play The Witcher 3 sooner, as soon as possible, even. We’re sorry to make you wait longer than you, or we, initially assumed you would. At the same time, we believe the game will prove to be worth the wait and meet the expectations you have of us. We believe The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt will be an exceptional RPG, one of the best, providing many hours of wonderful entertainment.""
The game is expected to be over 100 hours long, and feature many side quests. Is it the most horrible thing to want make sure the game is polished? No it is not. Yes waiting sucks, it always does, but there are factors that we as consumers don't understand because we aren't making this game. It's important to respect the development, it's not a simple task. Not a undertaking this big.
