While I'm disappointed by the extended wait, It's totally understandable. I'd rather have a more accuarate estimate for the game as it's meant to be rather than a rushed effort to meet a quick estimate deadline.
And it's always a bit of a balance. As great as people have been, I do still want to get this out in a somewhat timely manner. But I agree, it has to be of at least a certain quality, or it's not worth putting out.
