The two bitched about Final Fantasies regarding release date have been the last two and this should make it apparent why. The time it's taking to make them has almost quadrupled. It took less time to get from VII to XI than it's taking them to get from XI to XIII, and it's almost assured this will be the first generation in FF history that will not see three numbered releases. Fans have reason to bitch.
