Place your bets, what month will Bloodstained be released?

As much as I'd love for it to come out this year, I'm bracing myself for a 2019 "delay" at this point.

Hopefully it'll be out by March, if that is the case.

My bet is that it will be released in a month numbered between 1 and 12.

I know. A risky proposal.

I feel the same. The demo (which I can't play yet due to computer issues) needs a fair bit of polish and I'd be surprised if it makes it out of the gate for Christmas. I think 1st quarter 2019 seems reasonable.

Ouch, it's a small scale, but most people don't seem to have much faith in a 2018 release date. Oh well, as long as I get my physical Vita copies.

Tales of Xillia 2

I see I'm not the only pessimist.

What graphical downgrades? You mean with the last DEMO we got (which I didn't play cause screw Steam)? Are we walking MN9 downgrades here?

I just hope it doesn't come out in December. The last thing an indie game needs is to be in the shadow of a hugely anticipated game like Smash.

I know, I like it too!

I played xillia 1 and some of 2... I prefer 1 so far, and I kinda lost interest in 2, but not for the same reasons as people complained about with 2.. I intend to f inish it one day.

That said the character is milla/millia maxwell, and she's honestly a  very inspiring character. But her outfit in 1 was kinda ick... then in 2 she gets that really nice one, and and..then it changes to something even worse than 1. FFS! This isn't even related to why I stopped playing 2 to boot, I quit before even getting her at all in the playable party! (though I think I'm nearly th ere. I'm at a boss fight who wouldn't be too hard if I loved the game as much as 1, but I don't, so it creamed me twice and I hate playing as the new MC even though he's the most op as @%#%,  and and.. gah I'm ranting...).
Xillia 1 is frequently on super generous sales though, you should really try it.. and early game 2 was seriously amazing. I adored it. But I grew to hate the combat system using the new MC when he was clearly designed to be the dude you play as. gah.

edit:

Sorry, on topic. I always expected this game to be delayed a bunch before anyone else did, and pretty sure I made the first ever delay thread on here. But it's weird, I'm kinda feeling more positive now than people seem to be now. 

That said I kinda expect February.

Yes yes I know there is a push for a christmas/new years release... but I still expect February completely for hunch/gut feeling reasons.
