If anything, though, Larian may need to be worried about approaching the release dates of so many other major titles at the end of the year (well, major in the sense that I've been waiting for them for so long, too). Larian really only has until early September to get the game into my hands before it starts hitting competition from the other games on my buy list. Every game that had an early 2009 release was pushed to second half, making a very crowded fall season.

Patience is okay but there's also waiting too long and missing your window of opportunity. I hope it all works out well.
