It's not unusual. They did the bulk of the development for their last 3 games all within the last 15 months of development despite having 4 to 6 years to work on all of them. They didn't even know what Anthem would even look like when they were making their E3 trailer and nearly cut flying out of the game when it was a core mechanic.

Its not unusual for BioWare.

It is very much not standard that the bulk of a 7-8 year development cycle is done in the last 15 months

Yeah. For BioWare it became the norm, and that was the problem.
