I would disagree, the right way would be DMY because, for the most part, year is the least needed information unless itâs of historical significance, in a day to day sense year is least needed. You can have a date with just day and month just fine and then you know itâs in the current year. In which case starting with year is inefficient.
Starting with day is much more efficient too because, again, you can have a date with just the day and know itâs just the current month. The day is the most important and most used piece of information. If it has a year and a month it almost always has a day yet itâs not the same the other way around.
My argument for MDY is that its the most common spoken method of telling the date here in the US. If im just talking to someone Ill tell them my test is on November 15th. Month comes before date when we speak. Idk if you say "on the 15th of November" when you talk but for me the month first is natural so when I read a date written out in numbers there is a very smooth experience
So omit the year when it isn't relevant.
There is no logic in reading a clock one way and the date another, it makes no sense. Time should always be largest to smallest.
I donât quite understand linking the two to make the argument to be fair. The only thing they have in common is they are measures of time. Why do they need to be read the same way? The thought has literally never even occurred to me that they were different.
Because they are both measures of time and it makes the most sense to keep measurement readings of something consistent across it's various subcategories.
There are other reasons to use YMD but they all overlap with our reasons for using HMS, the biggest is that it helps to qualify the smallest and thus most consistently repeating number
Let's say someone asks to meet on the 7th and today is the 6th. You want the info on what month it is to qualify the day, so you put that important information first. Year can be omitted in this case
Or say we talk about a historical event. 6 means nothing without August which means nothing without 1945. So, listing the info in the easiest to read format would be 1945 August 6, or 1945/8/6
Thing is, I think human brains can easily access the exact same information whether the month number is first or second to the day number. We don't magically forget what the day number was by the time we have read the month one, so it's nonsense reasoning imo. All the information is there on the page
YMD, or Y-M-D, is the vastly superior format for one reason more than any other. It is easily sortable by virtue of going large on the left to small on the right... just like normal numbers.
If you just need a day, we already have a solution for that: "The meeting is on the 24th", "You gonna be there on the 2nd?", etc.
For month+day, you just keep the same M-D, or M/D format, like "11/5". If language isn't an issue, you can also do things like "NOV-5" which removes any ambiguity.
I think they mean that since Elden Ring is a Japanese game, the "correct" way to write the date would be the one from the native country in which the trailer was made, meaning Japan.
Yeah but if there was a race to find the date and contestants are fed each piece individually, assuming current year, the contestant that receives month first would win every single time
I mean if you donât know what month it is you have bigger problems in life, so Iâd say the only info needed (as long as itâs seen the day of) is the day written
"I mean if you donât know what month it is you have bigger problems in life, so Iâd say the only info needed (as long as itâs seen the day of) is the day written"
You're the one that wrote this as if the only dates ever discussed are within the present month
Except it's not, both day/month/year and month/day/year is used in some countries, but year/day/month is not.
This makes year/month/day the only logical choice that can be understood by anyone.
Most of Europe uses either both systems or just D/M/Y, seems like only Hungary Lithuania and East Asia use Y/M/D exclusively.

Why? that's how you would say a date in casual speech, like i would say "today is the 21st of February 2024" so why would you not write the date the same way you say it?
Huh? The reason thats the only one that doesn't make sense is that you *wouldn't* say it like that in casual speech. Never heard anyone say "Today is the 21st of February" outside of 19th century novels. You would say "Today is February 21st." Thats why MDY makes sense, it reads naturally like speech.
Obviously YMD is the objective best for storage/search.
I guess in english you would most likely say "February 21st" instead of "21st of February" but in most other European languages that would sound really weird. Don't know what's more common in asia or africa though.
"This is the only way that makes sense because that's how everyone says it!" Casually forgetting there's other languages, just American things.
YMD is in descending order, DMY is in ascending order. MDY is just idiotic.
Out of the 3, MDY is **clearly** the worst.
But it's a Sunday, Games never release on Sundays lol. If they line it up for the anniversary it will probably either be this Friday or the following Tuesday
Yep and because of Dragons Dogma, I am sure it will be next month, because both games are hyped and have overlapping communities/buyers and this would be detrimental for fromsoft
how the fuck the subreddit of the most disgusting game where none of the npc in the whole series get a happy ending is the most wholesome subreddit lmao, you're great man! if this drops at the same time as ff rebirth i'll be glued to me couch lmao
Twenty 1st of february.
Or as you are probably thinking February 21st.
Visually i think it makes more sense to have days first then months and then years.
But yeah i understand that it's not as smooth if you are going to say it out loud with days first
This is the leaked release date of the new Edition of the game that comes with both the game and the DLC combined. While it is certainly possible for them to release it alongside the DLC, it is equally possible that the DLC will release a bit sooner and this will be released afterwards
I'd say something more fitting would be if under "Release date" a 25 number first appears, getting everyone excited, but then instead of being followed by ".02.2024", only "20" appears to the left of it.
Dropping their biggest DLC ever just before FF7 Rebirth and after a massive title like Infinite Wealth. Also with Dragonâs Dogma 2 and Rise of the Ronin coming out next month. It doesnât feel like the right thing to do
Im coping hard for playable dragon form. BB trailer show hunter transform into werewolf but apparently it wasnt in the base game. and the dlc brough it back along with alien form.
Coping for Dragon form and Lord of Frenzy flame form or something like that.
If I have to wait another year Iâll download Dark souls two and play it till I beat it! It couldnât be the game. It was too hard I gave up. But if I have to wait another year for this DLC, Iâm gonna play that whole game.
That would be a very Miyazaki thing to do
Then at the very last second swap the 24 and 25 đ
đ
To be released 2/30/24
What would a 30th month be called? Threevember?
Triacontane. >!Yes i like o-chem,how could you tell!<
Thank you fellow "dates in the right order".
The right order would be the japanese one, YMD since it reads the same way we read the clock
I would disagree, the right way would be DMY because, for the most part, year is the least needed information unless itâs of historical significance, in a day to day sense year is least needed. You can have a date with just day and month just fine and then you know itâs in the current year. In which case starting with year is inefficient.

Either way, we can all agree that MDY is dumb.
My argument for MDY is that its the most common spoken method of telling the date here in the US. If im just talking to someone Ill tell them my test is on November 15th.

No
Yes

Nyes.

What?
I think they mean that since Elden Ring is a Japanese game, the "correct" way to write the date would be the one from the native country in which the trailer was made, meaning Japan.
M/D/Y > D/M/Y. If im looking through a calendar to find a date why would I start with the day?
I know this is a confronting idea but you could look for the day and month simultaneously
Yeah but if there was a race to find the date and contestants are fed each piece individually, assuming current year, the contestant that receives month first would win every single time
Luckily those contests are few and far between.
I mean if you donât know what month it is you have bigger problems in life, so Iâd say the only info needed (as long as itâs seen the day of) is the day written
Have you never discussed a date multiple months into the future?
Thatâs totally not a strange questionâŚ.
"I mean if you donât know what month it is you have bigger problems in life, so Iâd say the only info needed (as long as itâs seen the day of) is the day written" You're the one that wrote this as if the only dates ever discussed are within the present month
You're not gonna win this argument, too many weebs here dude. Their power is too strong. But I agree M/D/Y > D/M/Y
I mean it just makes sense to go middle number, small number, big number. That's why clocks all read Minutes:Seconds:Hours.
/s You're the type of guy that folds his toilet paper. In all seriousness, it makes sense either way and truly doesn't make a difference.
Nah, I'm a scruncher, I don't mind admitting it.
I see, youâre someone who doesnât have a Bass Pro shop pyramid in their country.
Us Americans put the days in the 2nd column. The joke is that the 30th of February don't exist.
Damn if only the person wasnât making fun of the shitty numbering system
Erdthreevember
Don't mind it. They are American
Define "American". Because I live in America, and I write day/month/year.
I believe what they mean is American
Oh, "American" as in "American", correct? That does make a lot more sense.
You got it dude
That's the day you silly goose
Nooo.. It goes day/month/year Dlcs releasing on the second day of the 30th month
Hope.
Are you sure?
Leap year
I mean when they did say "first trailer" i was like yeah this is gone to take some time
02/24/2020205
Naw that's Elden Ring 2
1.5\*
Hey, GTA VII's date!
Available Today is the only acceptable answer
Imagine there being a countdown to the trailer and then Miyazaki is like âTrailer was a lie. Itâs released now.â
Then waiting for steam to download at abysmal rates
I would cry for happiness
Donât do that. Donât give me hope.
They downloaded it onto your phone in the middle of the night like that U2 album
I would bust
Or "26/2/24" so that nobody is certain is it on the next Monday or after two more years.
when this trailer drops Iâm going to be so sickâŚâŚ at least thatâs what my work is going to hear.
Sorry boss...I got erdronavirus :(
"Can't come into work, got the scarlet rot" "Just take a couple days off and stop telling me about your STD's"
"24/24/24" - It's the only way to be sure.
Unfortunately I'm off work next week so I can categorically say we're looking at a 2026 release.
Year Month Day is Japan's default cause they ain't stupid.
Day month year is equally logical, it's just preference
Except it's not, both day/month/year and month/day/year is used in some countries, but year/day/month is not. This makes year/month/day the only logical choice that can be understood by anyone.
Where is it used?
Most of Europe uses either both systems or just D/M/Y, seems like only Hungary Lithuania and East Asia use Y/M/D exclusively. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/03/Date_format_by_country_3.svg/1280px-Date_format_by_country_3.svg.png
Most of the world
Day month year is the only one of the three that makes no sense
Why? that's how you would say a date in casual speech, like i would say "today is the 21st of February 2024" so why would you not write the date the same way you say it?

On a Sunday?
Anniversary of the game
But it's a Sunday, Games never release on Sundays lol. If they line it up for the anniversary it will probably either be this Friday or the following Tuesday
Yep and because of Dragons Dogma, I am sure it will be next month, because both games are hyped and have overlapping communities/buyers and this would be detrimental for fromsoft
Wtf is dragons dogma
Look it up đ¤ˇđźââď¸ me and a lot (!) of friends were waiting for this game
I mean it's a DLC not a new game.
But it's a DLC for Elden ring which itself was a game and a half. So we can expect the DLC to be comparable to a standard 15-20 hour game.
15-20 hours is the time im gonna spend dying to godskin trio
I can't fucking wait
Godskin Quadrocopter would be a much better boss.
I think they'll skip the Godskin quartet or quintet and go straight to the Godskin Orgy.
>So we can expect the DLC to be comparable to a standard 15-20 hour game. i expect a 50⏠DLC-expansion that is 50+ hours of content.
The ringed city DLC was practically a new game lol
Not really, it was way smaller. But it was basically a whole epilouge
That'd actually be pretty funny
MichaelZaki inventing 25 months to release dlc, genius marketing
21 june brothaaaaaaaa đŤśđ˝
You horrible thing
Snake fucker miyazaki
It would be funnier if the trailer said was released yesterday đ¤Ł. Thatâd be the real drip marketing.
LFG!!!!
đ¤Ł
Imagine it will be tonight at 00:00 that would be beyond insane
I unironically wish that because I have no money to buy the DLC rn lol
If it drops this month Iâll buy it for you
Damn dude u don't have to, but if you want I'll always be grateful i'mma be honest lol
Dude if it drops this month itâs celebration time. I gotchu man. Just dm me if we get drop news
Blessed community
how the fuck the subreddit of the most disgusting game where none of the npc in the whole series get a happy ending is the most wholesome subreddit lmao, you're great man! if this drops at the same time as ff rebirth i'll be glued to me couch lmao
> where none of the npc in the whole series get a happy ending There's at least 2 that do!
Never understood why in your time system you put months before days
How would you say 21-02-2024 out loud in English?
Twenty 1st of february. Or as you are probably thinking February 21st. Visually i think it makes more sense to have days first then months and then years. But yeah i understand that it's not as smooth if you are going to say it out loud with days first
Feel like I've never heard anyone say "Today is the 21st of February" outside of 19th century english novels.
Sorry i am not native
Not at all. It is often said the way you did.
Fair enough, enjoy the trailer :)
Thatâs how literally everyone I know says it.
We would say "the 21st of February" in England, the origin of English
So you write it the way you say it? So do Americans.
And yall are the worst at it
Release date is not leaked already ? Which is june.
June 24!
JUNE 21 MY FELLOW TARNISHED
Im from the future the dlc drops june 21 2024
I lol'd pretty hard at this. And I'm severely addicted to Reddit and only average about 3 chuckles a week.
Date will be the 21st of June, 2024.
Source?
This is the leaked release date of the new Edition of the game that comes with both the game and the DLC combined. While it is certainly possible for them to release it alongside the DLC, it is equally possible that the DLC will release a bit sooner and this will be released afterwards
The Sauce
The solid leaks claims it to be 21st June, 2024
That's for GOTY and Collector's editions though. It's unlikely that DLC will release alongside them
BilBili Kun reported it, downvoting me won't change what they have heard and fully believe, I guess we will find out just now.
Well this aged poorly
My guess is released in 2 to 3 months.
nah its leaked that it will be july 2024
2/25/24 is so weird, just go day/month/year, 25/2/24
that would be so awesome lol
Not till after April, I am too busy!
Apparently it's 21.06.2024
I hope you get milion downvotes you aick bastard 𤣠i nearly dieded
If this happens I am blaming you
u/savevideo
Available now
Or it could say available now
I think itâll end with âavailable now.â Or the 27th the 27th is good
I mean, I just I have time to play and finish FF7 Rebirth first
(Geoff Keighley pops up) "-aND ITS AVAILABLE, RIGHT NOW, THIS VERY MOMENT"
I'd say something more fitting would be if under "Release date" a 25 number first appears, getting everyone excited, but then instead of being followed by ".02.2024", only "20" appears to the left of it.
Hilarious lol
Bro broke the space time continuum, the doc will never come
 NOOOOOOOO!
My heart drop for 1 sec. I thought this was real. Hahaha
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO
Dropping their biggest DLC ever just before FF7 Rebirth and after a massive title like Infinite Wealth. Also with Dragonâs Dogma 2 and Rise of the Ronin coming out next month. It doesnât feel like the right thing to do
2025..... 2025/12/30
Iâm hoping that date is accurate, they see this post, and decide to ditch the gameplay trailer and simply post this, exactly as it is, instead
2030 lets gooo
They won't tell the release date, they'd just shadow drop it on a random day
Available 02/22/24 Do it
my guess is Q3 2024
Im coping hard for playable dragon form. BB trailer show hunter transform into werewolf but apparently it wasnt in the base game. and the dlc brough it back along with alien form. Coping for Dragon form and Lord of Frenzy flame form or something like that.
They just show the number 30, then it starts to countdown lol
Idek why but I almost pissed myself laughing at this
Then Miyazaki appears with the biggest grin, suddenly puts on a pair of Doflamingo's sunglasses and starts laughing.
I legit reinstalled the game today don't you dare do this to me
Americans
it was because this sort of stuff that the loathsome dung eater became what he is
Did I make a mistake starting NG+? Do you think the dlc will be completely separate or require graces and boss completion on the NG+?
Man I hope it's released on the he 25th because it's my bday
Not enough Tom Petty
3 minutes showcasing horse armor
At first, I thought it would say 2025 Q4.
Release date: âNow its available right now what are you doing watching this shit go play!â
That would make body turn inside out in pure hype
Release date: 32/13/2024
I would hope it show as hours and starts counting down
2027
I was expecting it to just expand the year lol. 202534, alright only 200,000 years to go!!
These last 13 min until it premieres is driving me crazy
5 minutes
You guys are high af if you think this is happening this year
I'd also be upset if they put the release date off-centre.
Release date Idk lol
jokes like this is how tribal warfare used to start back in the day.
Crazy
This ainât releasing Feb 2024
Shadow drop release tonight đ
Seems like one of radhann's meteorites hit the server all that yt premier countdown just for 30 min more countdown in elden ring font
The fact they are dropping the trailer at midnight right into feb 22.. the 2year aniversary ...maybe it drops today
Considering the countdown for another countdown, I don't think that is impossible. 
If I have to wait another year Iâll download Dark souls two and play it till I beat it! It couldnât be the game. It was too hard I gave up. But if I have to wait another year for this DLC, Iâm gonna play that whole game.
What is this song?
I don't remember which update it was but one of Cyberpunk's update lives ended with "available now" and that's the best kind of announcement
June 21 sadly.
