Sooo. Last I remember, we were told that this LS episode would be a lot larger as it was the finale… so it would take longer to make… and it did take longer… but 3 hours of content and done? Really?? the last patch has twice the content this place does and didn’t take as long. Anyone else feeling a bit swindled here?

It didnt even take 3 full months, wut? Maybe you are confusing with ep 5. And no ep5 had less instances than ep6 and both had “open world run around and do stuff” section

They have 3 teams working on 6 month schedules. When episode 5 took an extra month, it meant episode 6 had an extra month to work with. In total, episode 6 had nearly 2 extra months to work with. The episode was bigger though; the story did use a lot of unique instances for example, rather than re-using maps. The other reason they have for delaying however is to simply spread it out. After all, if they want to do a big event again, they’ll need to delay until September 1st (PAX).

I’d like to see a quote on that, because I don’t remember seeing that said.

I just went through all Mike O’Brien’s posts here on the forums, and on Reddit, and I could find nothing about the finale being larger.

If someone else stated that, I don’t know who it was.

Neither ep5 took extra time it just took the bigger part of the 3 month period the’ve given us.

Iirc he said “ep 5 will take some extra time releasing closer to the 3 months mark we put for ourselves”.

Every episode pretty much was on schedule with no episode really passing the 3 month cap.

Ep 6 took 2 months and 22 days.
