More and more games get delayed nowadays. I wonder why? I wonder if it's because they are being 'revealed' too early or that they should just lower their ambitions a bit.

Pretty much everyone wants to release their game as early as possible and even more before or at the start of the holiday season. Delaying a game to February means that they REALLY needed that additional time or else it would've been a bug fest or a lot of things that weren't finished would've been cut out.

Yeah, anyone who played Gothic 3 in its first month or so will attest to the fact that delays can be a good thing. Doubly so for open-world games.
