Fong delays are to be expected for games like fis.

I disagree. How can you announce a launch date and delay it for so long shortly after? That's just poor project management. I find these delays to be more looking for sympathy and positive reinforcement because gamers would rather have a delayed game than buggy mess and I feel devs are taking advantage of that.
Its a publicity stunt. We all announce "good on you guys for delaying to make it polished, you guys must get a medal and my money for the effort"
We praised CDPR for the witcher 3, delays and it was justified. Sometimes I think other games studios just try to fool us into thinking they are making that extra effort, when its just to hook us in to a false sense of security. Is that screenshot from Stalker 2 or first one? It looks the most static, rigid character poses I have seen in a while

While I agree with both you and Warchild for different reasons, I was actually just making fun of the spelling in the quote from the company.

I think Witcher 3 is more of an exception personally if you take into context. It was their first try at console development for a AAA title. The studio grew I believe 3 fold in the 3 years of development in a place not known(at the time) for game developers. Even then it was still buggy. Though they were quick to fix it(unlike CP2077).
But yes these established studios and the like just use it for bonus points more than anything. They still launch in a buggy mess and half the time the games are broken anyway (usually EA lol)
@Angrygoldfish well you made us look like the joke then since we clearly missed it!
