I think of expectations as double egded swords...
Anticipation: Delaying a game will hurt many gamers IF it was announced long time ago... like in ssbb... and as long as they wait for their game their expectations grow viscously! Though If you announce it way later and its just weeks of release then people may be dicomfortable and shock people into buying it later... announcing a game in the right time will build the expactions normally (except in a few cases >_>), no delays, and advertise it...
Expectaions: Expectations can go in three ways... dissapointment, satisfaction, and pure enjoyment(you were blown away)....
dissapointment- your expectaions were too high, your anticipation was probably off the roof, you were expecting something different, or you were missinformed... leading you to probably not buy their future games since most likely you didn't enjoy it.
satisfaction- you were spot on with you're expectations and enjoyed the game... not much to say here...
pure enjoyment- you're expectations were low and the game is literally 10x better than you origannaly thought, the game is legend, first time playing video games, or it was unexpected and revolutionized many things...
so out of all this... did you ever consider about your expectations or anticipation too high or too low... and besides... out of the three, which do YOU experience the most on... dissapointment, satisfaction, or pure enjoyment. DISCUSS!!!
