Does it really matter? Only date anyone really cares about now is the proposed release date. if they can't share that, why bother.
Well, you can't say that you wouldn't be a little uneasy if you're not receiving any news updates and you're nearing release...I mean, sure people might not care as much about the news, but I'm sure they would want to know some more information...also people are looking forward to that "video".....

This week, no update. Game out in few months. No ETA. Adapt.
Adapt? To no info with no ETA? Seems more like the staus quo since Aventurine took over, 5 years ago. Now, if we start getting regular, meaningful updates and info, THEN we would have to adapt.
I was excited about this game about 2 years ago kinda watched it and still pretty excited. But I just don't think it's going to happen. No update? No surprise. I don't even think it will release......

Sure you can start a thread every hour , now its 3 o'clock and no update ,now its July 4 no update, now is 2 weeks no update ..thats trolling .
You may have a good point but OP intension is to troll.
I think tasos must be ill again, thats his normal reason for not doing it. I just hope that IF this game ever makes the light of day there will be no sickness going on in the tech dept or we are screwed..

Don’t forget the possible return of some of their other most recent memorable excuses including “impossible workload”, “Greek Easter”, “various reasons“ “we’ve been crunching” “these things do happen” “the time difference” “I’ll try to be more careful next time” and my personal favorite “circumstances beyond are control”.
At least since apparently their contact at Warcry has left we wont be subjected to the usual and often repeated it’s the Warcry guys fault type excuses anymore.
But hopefully the next update will be the “comprehensive video” they said they where “looking at” releasing “sometime in the next few weeks”, but of course that was a few weeks ago, so it's coming anytime soon I'm sure.

Don't forget, there was an earthquake 120 miles of Athens the other day. Even though nothing in Athens was hurt, you know the entire Aventurine staff had to take an extended vacation to recover from the trauma of an earthquake in Greece. They probably won't be back to work until September at the earliest which will push the release date back to March or May of next year.
Fear not fanbois, we are not trolls, let's take off your tin foil hat and learn what VAPORWARE is:
"Vaporware is a term used to describe a software or hardware product that is announced by a developer well in advance of release, but which then fails to emerge after having well exceeded the period of development time that was initially claimed or would normally be expected for the development cycle of a similar product."
Pretty lame, but that is the way it often works. Someone criticizes the game, or those RESPONSIBLE for the game, and the fanatics rush to the 'defense' by attacking the messenger rather than the message.
They are so angry, they even hope the devs dont give any updates just to spite the 'hater'. Ever hear the phrase cutting off the nose to spite the face?
I count the probabilities of possible excuses that can occure like the earthquake possibility. If someone feelhe got hurt i will remove them and i will apology but aslong asthe earthquake stands there as possible excuse from Tasos i don't find the excuses i posted as less possible.

My examples may be drastic but not less ridiculous like an excuse because of the earthquake ?

AND what about don't shoot the developer who try to accomplish the anyway difficult task?

Sadly, the more I learn, the less outlandish and more likely that scenerio appears!

thats really sadly ....you may not believe this but this really saddens me ....
Sure we learned today that developer will use any excuse to prevent the game from release from various serious talking poster here...
Don't be surprised... it is cause "Tasos becomes pregnant and a 9 month delay cause of the birth he has to give" some posters may try to convince you to...
Just believe the serious possibilities posters give here...
We all should start discussions on that level.
You go for this i see ...well done... keep that level...
You personally don't deserve to get any information update. Hope Tasos will use the excuse "because i don 't care" at some point of time. Or Tasos using the excuse "because some people are not bright enough" excuse
I would as well welcome an excuse from Tasos like "because some people aren't mental capable to receive an update" excuse
Could imagine he will use "i am sick of giving people updates " excuse. Or "i am giving no update because i am tired to give an update to people who don't deserve it" excuse he could also use the "i don't fell like i have to give any information to someone" excuse ....
what has the same probability like the earthquake excuse ?
we will see....
Stanford you do realize that I was actually using exact quotes recently used by the developers as excuses?, but I do concede that your made up ones certainly do seem just as plausible if not more.
I personally would find the earthquake excuse a lot more believable then the “the dog ate my homework” type excuses they have used so frequently as demonstrated in my previous post.
But considering they did mention the forest fires around Athens a few years ago I would not put it past them mentioning the Earthquake either as a contributing factor to any possible delay in the future.

Yes i know yours were quotes no problem with your post at all.
But someone tried to adhere to your post and then make a fantasy story out of his mind and present that as 100% probability to make it look like a fact.
The fantasy story also presented the developers as habitual liars who knowing about "earthquake don't hurt them in Athens" but using that as excuse for "release Mai next year".
Following that logic with developers being habitual liars why isn't there a very high possibility then to use for example some of my mentioned excuses.
