Do you think the reason Devil's Third is being delayed in America is to fix the problems?

They are not going to make two different versions of the same game on the same console.

Even patching sounds unlikely as there are many different problems to solve (meaning that there are lots of files involved) and that would take a patch that's probably nearly the same size as the game itself. Unlikely.

why not. some games do their patches in little increments and fix. We just don't know if Nintendo and/or Valhalla would support it 100% afterwards. But i'm leaning towards that Valhalla would support the PC version since it is has free to start (microtransactions) and if there is a good size of players, they could get money from it.

well assuming the first patch is just part of a much larger chunk of patches, that's not a reason to have it release at a much later time.

my mistake. i'm just answering your question on why it won't have patches. but you are comment in a whole is about answering the question of thread. Which i agree NoA didn't delay its release here just to fix the problem.

Yeah, no. What we're seeing is the now months of work that probably go into starting the publishing process from scratch. I imagine they can't just snap their fingers and get the game rated by the ESRB, figure out distribution and otherwise, get the game printed, and distributed. I don't even think the PC port is impacting it, as they could just release that later. This is simply the result of NoA's indecisiveness.
