lol i think you are wrong that release date is place holder, neither xseed tweeter has said anything about the release date…
Well, my partners at Play Asia have it marked down for December 15, 2015 (NA & EU) and they usually get their info in press releases from the company and then send me the info to get it out there.
I just double check and its coming this the 15th of December. Even Amazon has it mark down for the 15th.. http://amzn.to/20N0JDX
not rude , but do you know what is a placeholder?.. the xseed twitter still doesn’t said anything about the release, and in the forums they said they are under test but i will be released somewhere in 2015…

IIRC someone of the mods (Tom) said that 15 of december is placeholder…
Yes I know what a placeholder is and I’m going by the info my partners have given me and the emails Amazon has sent me. So we’re just going to have to wait and see what happens then. I hope it’s before the holidays would like to pick while I’m on vacation.
