Sad topic.. as if being a student is as demanding as a full time job or something. I've been a student.. most people have. You have more free time as a student compared to any other part of your life afterwards, especially in the first month of a new term/semester. I'd rather be out enjoying the social side of being a student at that time tho instead of being stuck at a computer. GW2 would have to wait and I wouldn't care in the slightest. |

I highly doubt your assertion.... |

As sad as this topic is, the OP has a good point. From a business point of view waiting until the end of August is probably the worst time to release this game, for the reasons he stated. You either do it in the middle of summer or closer to christmas.
Its kind of like the games that decide to patch on the east coast in early to late afternoon, when most of your subscribers are on *cough Turbine* and then it turns into a night thing because you don't know how to patch something correctly. Its like selling bathing suits during Thanksgiving, really doesn't make good business sense. |

Nice! Many of the posters around this site tend to think of themselves as the "bulk the gaming world" in one way or another. It is our human tendency to believe we represent more than just ourselves. It can also be very disheartening to find out you are a minority rather than the opposite. |

Gw2 is likely a lot younger but the average age in Most MMOs is in the early 30's. Not to mention GW2's target audience is a lot more casaul than most AAA MMOs appealing to those players that do not want to grind, are PvP players and do no want to invest a lot of effort or time into a MMO. In regards to College Students it is the start of the semester and if they want to spend a few weeks at release playing non stop it should not matter much as they will have planty of time to catch up. I cannot recall anyone ever studying the first weeks of a semester. Once you get out of schoola nd get a job you will realize how much more freetime you had as a student. In regards to the devs I doubt they care if it inconviences anyone as they have already sold an amazing total of pre-order boxes. I doubt they care if anyone plays as long as they pay to buy the game. |

Originally posted by bwinthehouse lol I can see that would suck then again I've never had that problem except when I have to work 10 to 12 hour days for about 2 to 3 weeks at a time, then again I dont have my hobbies on my mind 24/7 like I did when I was a little whipper snapper.

Just see it on the positive side. You cannot be playing GW 2 24/7 so that means you are less likely to 'burn out' (that happened to me a lot in the past when I played a game too often and still occurs sometimes). And you are also not very likely to have a lot of prep work to do for any exams (since schools are just starting) so you can still dedicate most of your time after school to play this gem! |

The date is good like any other date. If you say that i imagine if it was December... Maybe you would prefer it.. You will cry a lot if you think the dates will always fit your tastes like you want on future, because they wont. The perfect date for you would be horrible for others and the other way arround. So accept it and dont cry over it. |

Originally posted by bwinthehouse Hum. You call them bitter, but you seem to be the only one who is upset. Everyone else is just laughing at you in disbelief. As a member of the "majority" you are taking the liberty of speaking for, I will say that I don't want your representation. I'm not upset about the release date because I'm equally busy regardless of when it occurs. I will only ever play when I have time to do so. |

Actually Buddy, I am a completely EMPLOYED college drop out and I'm looking forward to this release date because unlike yesterday, there was NO release date. Any release date is a great release date at this point.
Enjoy college. While I enjoy playing my Asura :) |

OK, the first thread that said pretty much the same thing was kinda dumb.
This one? Officially stupid. Dear god, this company should TOTALLY cater to you so that you can spend all your hours playing video games instead of studying. |

I think it's a smart move. Back to school and something exciting to talk about with your friend's you might not have seen for a while or new friends you might make. Seems like a good oppurtunity for some word of mouth. |
