Hey you know what, delay it as long as it takes to live up to the first game. Even if it takes two years, the fans will still be here and they'll still buy and play it. And by the time the game releases there will be even more PS5 owners. A huge scheduled delay could actually be a really good thing right now.

“Move on and plan the rest of the year seriously”

LOL

Are these ppl serious? Do something else and play the game when it comes out jeez. It’s a 15 hr experience and you gotta plan your whole year around that? I’m excited for ragnarok too but damn there’s a million things to play or do in the meantime. People gotta grow up

I'm get it. But this is not the point.

The issue is these 'insiders/leakers'.

 

[Lunarorbit]

This is why it's so fucking stupid to make games like this cross gen.

I ... don't think cross gen is the issue here. Cross gen just means they're working on an already established tool/engine set. It should expedite the process if nothing else.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

I like don't even care anymore. Going to play Death's Stranding DC.

I would imagine that it would complicate the entire dev cycle. But I guess since it's ps4/ps5 they have the same basic architecture inside.

Either way I still don't like cross gen. If they have the same palette swapped enemies as the first I'll be super disappointed. Or just trolls as every boss

 

[Kilau]

This is already a better ARG than the Abandoned die hards could have hoped for.

 

[TheDarkPhantom]

It sounds like a conspiracy but I think it could be some of truth in that. I hear that Sony is fucking savage when dealing with leaks and shit like that.

I know, it wasn't meant as a joke

It’s on Sonys website. It says “ Release date 2022 “.

What Cory is referencing is that date not some internal release date that we don’t know about.

True. So if it gets pushed to 2023 then that will be their 2nd delay since it didn’t release last year. If I was betting I think it will squeak out this year.

 

[ClosBSAS]

lol its gonna be dec 31st, 2022. its gonna be hilarious.

 

[MasterCornholio]

I still think a delay can happen but it really isn’t impossible for the game to release this year. We could be waiting a while since they announced the release date pretty close to the launch of the first game.

 

[Pejo]

This avatar bet business is the most fun I've had on GAF in the longest time. It's a theater of drama, comedy, laughs, cries.

 

[Kdad]

 

[Wandering Leopard]

Why are some people so entitled about this game and when it comes out.

They'll announce a release date when they're ready.

 

[DeadOblivion78]

People getting upset at Cory because of what some leaker is baffling to me. I hope the snitch's hubris is catching up to them.

 

[Salty Popsicle]

Cory Barlog writing the 2023 delay statement as we speak.

 

[InfiniteCombo]

lol plan the rest of the year as if that virgin has any plans if he’s got plans for a fucking video game.

Yeah that was cringe as fuck.

Gamers™ are a weird bunch

 

[3liteDragon]

This is starting to get annoying considering how long we’ve been waiting, but Cory reaffirming that it’s still 2022 is enough for me even if the wait to see more footage is gonna be longer.

 

[MrA]

Nah its all a trick they actually released itlast year and never told anybody

 

[Elder Legend]

Hahahhahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahhahahahahahajahhahahahahahahahahahahahha

This is amazing. I get too read and see more triggered man children who has 0 self despiclne, 0 productivity in their miserable lives and probably uncontrollable amount of jerking off to weeb porn. Cory and Sony Santa Monica team delivered them tears! Still gotta tackle Horizon 2 and GT7 here cause work and elden ring took my precious time.

 

[Warnen]

 

[DonF]

Maybe Cory is thinking financial Q4 2022, which might be march 23 lol

 

[DeepEnigma]

I'm sorry your understanding was different but I said we don't know what the internally projected release date at the moment is for him to say 'its not delayed'.

It is ridiculous they are being so shy about putting out a blog with release date and pre order link.

Please Understand™

 

[cash_longfellow]

What a shit show, for what it's worth, Jason is still saying no delay to 2023 and Cory Barlog has also said the game isn't being delayed but who knows who to believe these days.

Stop sharing this clowns trash on here..please smh

 

[Craig of War]

 

[DonJorginho]

Who knows who to believe? Lol. They're saying the same thing!

It was a generalisation lol, not me talking directly about these two guys only.

 

[DeepEnigma]

My take. Sony threw out the curveball to buckle the knees of the leak. They probably narrowed it down to who it is now.

We’ll soon see if the snitch goes MIA.

 

[TexMex]

This isn’t a “shit show” at all. It only appears that way because every twitter dolt is constantly reporting every passing rumor they hear about it. They’re managing internally and a bunch of people who aren’t even affiliated with the studio are making it appear like a mess. This stuff used to happen all the time, just quietly and offline.

[Ghost of Caelid]

They don't know when the game is coming out cause its still in development. Let them work.

 

[TransTrender]

The only reason I would be upset is because I voted the game would be delayed to 2023 in that one thread/poll without realizing it was an Avatar bet before hitting submit.
Game will be fine. Comes out when it comes out.

[James Sawyer Ford]

Why would they delay an announcement trailer and date? That makes zero sense

 

[DeepEnigma]

Because it was never a real date. My bet, it was to root out the leak..

 

[Represent.]

Released in 2019.

This is what competence looks like.

Could they do the same for real movies one day?

 

[mxbison]

Didn't like 3/4 of that stuff get delayed?

 

[ParaSeoul]

Guessing this is the way they're trying to combat the Snitch now. Doesn't really help much.

 

[Swipeyowifelike]

You do know alot of that got delayed?

 

[ToTTenTranz]

I'm still expecting and hoping for a delay to March 2023. I already have too many games in the Fall to play. I don't need another one.

So you want for no one else to play the game until you have time to play it?

 

[radewagon]

Is it weird that I don't care at all when this gets released? I've played and loved every non-Ascension God of War game and yet I can't seem to get hyped enough for Ragnarök to be bothered by a late release date. I want to play it, obviously, but I am perfectly fine waiting for it. It'll be done when it's done. It's not like there aren't other games to play in the meantime.

 

[cormack12]

If this doesn't release in 2022, then I'm fucking telling you.......I'm just going to wait a bit longer.

 

[RoadHazard]

What if it has already been released, and they just didn't tell anyone?

 

[DonJorginho]

 

[reksveks]

Tom just going to post the leak/story anyways it seems

 

[Zatzuken]

This is a shit show, just stick a trailer up with a date…

 

[TVexperto]

jason needs to get off twitter with his bullshit

 

[jm89]

Maybe. But a company delaying announcements because of a leaker just seems petty.
