Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs Discussion Topic Part 1

[Darkchef]

The game is finished already, now they're waiting for enough people that will buy it on the release date.

Nay, I don't think so. It would only make sense if there was another big horror game coming out at the same time, which they don't want to compete with, but that's not the case. So why wait without reason? Every day they wait is another day they have to pay their employees without getting money in return - and they aren't a huge, rich publisher who can afford that. Thus, I'm very, very sure it is not a business decision to delay it, but there's simply still work to do.

Have you never heard of the saying that the last 10% of a project take 50% of the time? That's exaggerated, of course, but still there's truth in it. Polishing all those little bugs and weirdnesses that pile up during game development often takes more time than anticipated.

Its true, it will take a long time. Can't see it being later than July though.
