Gamers are urging developers to stop the frustrating trend of announcing new games years before they’re scheduled for release.

I really do not care how early or late a game gets announced. Plenty of great games have been announced early, plenty of shit games have been announced late. What matters is who's developing it and the situation around the development.

My main concern is that the game is good, complete and that there was no 'crunch time' involved. When they pop release dates up they instantly create crunch and it's unnecessary. Finish the game in the time it takes then release it. Fuck this idea of working people to death for entertainment.
