Are you kidding me? This is fantastic.
All the Devs will be on holiday resting from whatever crunch they were on with their phones off, the servers are going to explode, nothing will be fixed until after the holiday, the forums are going to implode into a neutron star made of pure salt.
It’s going to be the most entertaining week of the year.

I could totally see them making people work on Thanksgiving
It’s on Thanksgiving, write down that you’re thankful that it isn’t delayed until 2021

No. Because the real life people in my life are more important than a video game that will be there the next day anyway.

It’s sounding like everything but Christmas is getting cancelled in the family news. Pretty sad. I’m lucky enough to actually like my family.

Work in retail haven’t had a Thanksgiving in years since that’s when the Black Friday event starts. Why it’s still called Black Friday when it starts on Thursday I will never know.

Why would a Nov 23rd release have any impact on an a dinner 3 days later?
“Blizz, WoW and SL sucks! … Ermagah gotta skip Holidayz dinner!!”

No, because I already had Thanksgiving. In October. When it usually is.
The launch will likely be a s***show unless they force the devs to work over Thanksgiving, which when you consider the crunch they are likely under combined with the stress of covid/wildfires, it might be a bit much to ask for some people.

Well there goes my plan to possibly call out sick one day if I stay up too late playing, I work Wednesday - Saturday and if I call out the day before or after a holiday then I lose my holiday pay for that day.
Why would they choose the week of a major holiday anyway?? It makes no sense, won’t most of the devs be off that week? Who’s gonna fix the inevitable bugs that always happen on launch week? Either the week before or the week after would have been better all around imo.
