Chronicles of Light NA release date silently pushed back (again)?

[Question]

When I pre-ordered my book months ago, the store page said the release date was the 23rd of March. The 23rd came and went with no shipping notification but the date on the store page had been changed to March 30th.
Today I went back to the store page to see if it was shipping soon and the release date now reads “April 2019”.

Friends in EU have had their books for over a week and square hasn’t sent out any emails letting me know about any delays. What gives? Is anyone else with an NA pre-order getting fed up with the release date silently getting pushed back?

Pretty much what happened with the Estinien BringArts releasing ~2mo after everyone else got theirs by a third party. Even then, the date changed about three (?) times with a vague timeframe. No notifications.

IIRC someone ended up getting a rough estimate (as in: an actual date) from Amazon of all places. Sadly this isn't a new issue, I'm sorry that you're having to deal with it too!

Ugh. I wish there was some place to get English copies outside of the SE stores, but they don't seem to be on amazon. They're apparently out and in-stock in EU, but, knowing SE shipping, I doubt they'd ship to the US for under $100, if at all.

This is what I get for ordering stuff on the SE store thinking "okay this time. For the sweet points for members rewards."

I pre-ordered on the EU website pretty much as soon as I heard of it and still don't have it, there's no indication that it's sold out or that there's a waiting list. Also for some reason my order has the title in French in the order list in my account.

Oof. I’d definitely talk to SE support about that. My EU friends got theirs shortly after the original release date.
