Well, maybe it's older. I didn't know it is that old. Perhaps I was a bit ignorant, thinking that this quote is theirs just bc it is the first place I saw it.
What I was trying to say is that my experience with "when it's done" is different. It's a fair call and doesn't create false expectations. If you are a supporter of the game, then you have the right to be upset with this, but as a developer myself, I can tell you that this is the most honest estimate that a developer can give. You just can't predict everything that will be in your way without a proper planning phase, which is impossible in the startup/indie world.
Anyway, I agree with most of what you said, constant delays is a bit annoying, but I don't agree with your criticism of the quote itself. And it wasn't my intention to trigger you, so I apologize for that.
