I'm creating a new thread for this because I don't know if Stardock staff return to threads if questions are considered anwered.
It's likely there was a misunderstanding when I previously asked my question. I realised I phrased it pretty confusingly. The international retail release was slated for 15 May 2009 (today). By all accounts, that's not happened. According to both Amazon Germany and UK, as well as my local retailers, Demigod will only be released at retail internationally (or at least in those locations) on 22 May 2009 (next week Friday).
I feel like a spoiled child asking for more here because Stardock has been pretty transparent about most things in this game's release (and has a lot on their plate at the moment), but I'm just wondering why there was no official word from either Atari or Stardock regarding this development? Is there any official word on why the game's international retail release was delayed?
