With FF14 and KH releasing in a short period of time it may have been too much for SE. Although around Xmas would have made it sell like hotcakes.
No way they are gonna disturb Lightning Returns, looking at May 2014?
Maybe even release on Ps4? That would expain the delay at least.
Man SE keeps messing up, don't they know they need to get some positive PR out there?
Even the launch of FF14 is a mess! Servers full... Great game so far though.
