I feel like Bloodborne had a better chance of competing with other titles in February. If it was strictly a timing move I'd rather have seen then push back The Order. But if the game just needed more time what can you do?

 

[Hitokiri03]

After what has happened with some recently released games, I'm totally fine with that.

 

[Endoplasmatisch]

Right choice, February was too crowded.

 

[Foshy]

After all these launches with technical problems I don't really mind.

 

[viveks86]

Oh well. At least the February clusterfuck on my wallet is spreading out.

 

[Philippo]

Should have delayed The Order instead.

 

[DaSorcerer7]

Hope there aren't any further delays.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Expected since The Order ended up in Feb.

 

[Doukou]

Was a U.S. date given?

 

[Necromanti]

Saving my money for another month, I guess. Nothing else of interest that February.

 

[Lord Error]

Probably for the best. Releasing this in the same moth with The Order always struck me as odd. To a casual observer, the two games could look similar.

Should have delayed The Order instead.

They already did so it gets extra polish, why delay it more if it's ready.

 

[Uchigatana]

What?!! That sucks! On the other hand, I get to play Bloodborne on Spring Break! So, it's not all bad for me.

 

[joe2187]

Now I wont need to get a PS4 till March, thanks.

 

[WavekSra]

Was a U.S. date given?

yes

 

[Chance Hale]

For a second I forgot it was 2014 and thought it had been delayed a whole year. Heart dropped a bit

 

[funkystudent]

I bet this is 100% a move to get it away from The Order. Cant blame them really. Also like any Souls game some extra polish cant hurt.

Should have delayed The Order instead.

The Order has Bomba written all over it. Extra dev time would fix that.

 

[Rhaknar]

on my birthday? how nice of Sony

 

[kadotsu]

Same month as Type-0. I'll definitely get a PS4 in March.

 

[Doukou]

yes

Thanks

Public beta?

 

[Mortemis]

 

[Squire]

I'm hoping that this week if no other will be the week people realize games they want being delayed really is nothing but good.

 

[Deleted member 125677]

At least one more month before I have to worry about whether or not to get a ps4 then

 

[InfiniteNine]

Yup. Keep it cooking. Don't want a raw cake.

 

[leroidys]

Good news, IMO, I'd rather they take the time to fix it up and deliver one for the ages.

 

[MavFan619]

Should have delayed The Order instead.

In this case it seems they want to polish Bloodborne up based on the Alpha. Aside from not seeing a new Demo for the Order in a while who's to say it's not ready for Feb where Bloodborne needs more time? Which from the blog post it seems a little more time. It's just a month either way.

 

[kitschbeam]

Take your time, From Software.

 

[MightyKAC]

Welp, I guess if you're gonna announce a delay on your game for polishing and quality control reasons then RIGHT NOW would be the time to do it.....

 

[Femto.]

Man this really bums me out, the original release date would have left me a month to play it before Spring semester starts.

At least they aren't rushing it out, good on From and Sony for giving them the breathing room.

"Exciting Bloodborne news in December"

Public beta?

That would make sense. If there is one, I'm not sure if I'd personally want to participate though, since I want to be as much in the dark as possible for the game's release.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

I don't really mind at all. Actually, I was surprised the game got such an early release date. A month late doesn't matter.

 

[vesvci]

A month delay? Not bad. As long as it helps to ensure a solid product.

No more Driveclub and Halo:MCC launches please.

 

[Anth0ny]

I'm hoping that this week if no other will be the week people realize games they want being delayed really is nothing but good.

man did people forget about watch dogs quickly or what

 

[Shinjica]

Sadly, one month more will not improve the framerate.

 

[FrostuTheNinja]

Damn, that made me laugh. Thanks for that.

 

[Ol No Bones]

Sony is Doomed!

This is actually great news for The Order.

 

[Neiteio]

Damn it!

That well-meaning bar of soap was just trying to offer free swag to that man

 

[Amused]

Good!

I don't want a rushed game. If it's not ready, don't release it.

Just make it as good as it can be.

 

[GravityInsanity]

Awaits...

 

[EGM1966]

No issue with that - makes sense to have space between this and The Order too.

 

[Lernaean]

Whatever it takes in order to deliver it as polished as possible, and this is my opinion on all delays, always.
Pretty bad for Sony though. My PS4 will collect one more month's worth of dust.

 

[JediLink]

This is really of little consequence to me anyway since I probably won't have a PS4 for ages still. I'm glad that they're going to take the extra time to polish it.

 

[Vidpixel]

Not too surprising given The Order's release being in February. Still though, sad face

 

[Guymelef]

Sadly, one month more will not improve the framerate.

Have you already tried February build?

A month later though.

 

[Poimandres]

What makes you say that? Plenty of games don't come together performance wise until a few months before launch.

 

[Bob White]

Good. Release it when it's ready.

[iRAWRasaurus]

Well guess I am getting the witcher 3 on release day now.

 

[theSlacker]

I'm okay with this. Like all of From's games could use a little extra time.
