<\/a><\/p>\nYeah, well, so what.\u00a0 As far as reminiscences go, that old planned release date is now no more meaningful than the old September 17th and April 16th release dates.\u00a0 And the delay being announced literally one single day after “NO MORE DELAYS!” being announced by the same company that’s making the game… well…<\/p>\n
I remember back in 2012 when this game was announced.\u00a0 I was fricken stoked, man.\u00a0 I was certain that this would be an epic sci-fi game that would certainly take my focus and become an all-time favourite.\u00a0 Not just that, but I was certain that it would contain androids, and in particular, sexy female androids.<\/p>\n
Now, I’m almost certain that there won’t be any androids in this game.\u00a0 Cyborgs and assorted non-humanoid robots, yeah sure.\u00a0 But no androids.\u00a0 I could be wrong, and maybe I am.\u00a0 We’ll see.<\/p>\n
Then there’s the issue of “celebrities” and “influencers” being included in the game.\u00a0 I can’t overstate how much I really, really dislike celebrities and especially people who are famous just because their famous.\u00a0 The fact that such people are included as characters in this game is really making me wonder if there’s a compelling game behind their inclusion at all.\u00a0 All the massive corporate hype and corporate tie-ins really get me disinterested too.\u00a0 I used to be hyped and excited to play this the minute it came out.\u00a0 Now I think I’ll give it a month or two for the initial bugs to be patched out, and the fanboy hysteria to settle down.<\/p>\n
I’m also really doubting that this game will be released this year, in 2020.\u00a0 I’m about two thirds sure it won’t be.\u00a0 So see you in 2021, everybody.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
