Jason Schreier/Kotaku: The Last of Us Part II Delayed to Spring (May 29th 2020) [UPDATE: Confirmed by Naughty Dog]

I really wasn't expecting it to get a delay. I know March is INSANELY STACKED, but damn they just put out the big video that gave us the release date only a few weeks ago didn't they?
I wonder if there's any reason for this delay other than how stacked late february/march is? Like did something happen in the past few weeks of development that had Naughty Dog thinking they'd need more time?

Knew it lol. It was so obvious after Sony and and \nd pulled exactly the same stunt with Uncharted 4.
What can happen in one month that makes them delay it?
video game development is so finnicky. they went out of their way to delay the release date announcement until the very end and then fucked that up too. lets hope this means no downgrades.

it did not look rough. come on.
RIP to everybody who scheduled a "vacation" or a "dentist appointment" with work for the orig. date.
I can't wait anymore BUT this is actually the best news to me, I shoulda finish TLOU in days (I often like to play these games twice in a row) before FFVII Remake, not only that but I'll be on vacations from March 13th to March 25th so TLOU coming during Spring is great for me.
What the hell kinda planning is this?
Hasn't even been a month since the date announcement. I mean, delaying is good if it needs it, but, just seems weird that they didn't see this beforehand.

Yeah, that's weird, maybe they found some groundbreaking stuff that needs to be fixed.
The release date announcement was so recent. I really don't understand how that ended up happening unless someone looked at the game and said, "This needs more work." (Maybe performance or something?) or if a problem was just recently discovered that needs to be ironed out. Would love to know the "Why?" behind this.
Nah, all of the potential Doom buyers will instead buy Animal Crossing on March 20. The overlap of audiences is real!
Oh, you think FFVII is releasing in March do you?
Square Enix right now:
Avengers?

Not a big deal, I can wait. Does reflect badly on that last State of Play though, which basically existed for The Last of Us 2. Everything else featured just revolved around it.
Ah the bad news. Well clearly ND needed it so it's for the best. Hopefully it won't be too bug ridden when it comes out. Nothing worse than bugs ruining the ambition that will clearly be on display.
I remember a time when we didn't have to label every joke post with a /s.
While this isn't that big of a deal in having to wait a few more months to play LoU2 during an already busy first half of 2020, the manner in which the release date was announced and then delayed a month later is concerning.
It makes me trust Sony less and worry about the state of the game. If it's development timeline is this unstable this close to release, what else is unstable? Not a good look. I'm not "angry" in an entitled, angry gamer sort of way, but I do think this sort of delay is a big deal and unprofessional for what it says about Sony, Naughty Dog and the development of Last of Us Part 2.

It's okay, not a huge letdown, take your time ND.
Now I can pay for both FF7 and TLoUII with more relief.
