Companies need to grow a spine. Good games sell regardless of what’s out. If your confidence in your own game is so low that you’d push it to a slow release date, it’s probably not worth playing anyway.

that's not true. games can absolutely get fucked by release dates coinciding with big names. and have.

The two Horizon games picked really shitty weeks to release on lol. I think that's done significant damage to the player base. They're not groundbreaking games, but still extremely well done (imo)
