Right at the end of the trailer with something like __/__/2018 just like Kingdom Heats 2.8
or right before December 2017 they do a video announcement saying they need more time to polish, debug it, etc. Just like what happened with Final Fantasy XV.
A bigger part of me feels like they are doing everything they can to make the release date though.
Personally I would hope that, if it is to be delayed, they would announce that long before the original target date (December). If we get to October, November and it still looks like it's going to be released on time, I'm going to really be feeling intense anticipation at that point. And then at the last minute if they were to say, 'actually it'll be xx/xx/2018'... That would be tougher for me than if they were to announce a delay at E3 or around that time. But realistically, if they do make that decision at the last minute, I would have to accept that it's for the best even though it would be disappointing. Ultimately it's up to me to keep my own expectations in check. I just wonder what their criteria and time frame are for making a decision like that... it might not be something they reveal until years later at a GDC post mortem or equivalent presentation.
Yeah man. 1-3 months delay would be bearable but only for a good reason. I can't say I'm liking the fact some people are saying 'yeah 1 or 2 more years of waiting is no problem, we've waited this long.' Credit to their patience though.
But yeah, the release date is looking good so far.
