Maybe to have the games generating traffic and make gamers carve it more before it's out. Expand Nah, games revealed like months before release sell more than when they drag it out. Just look at MK11s sales for example. It is the highest selling fighting game of 8th gen and that was revealed like 4 months before it came out.

Expand It's basically what bugs me because I know very well that when a game drags for too long, gamers lose interest just like what happened to Cyberpunk 2077.

Expand Yeah and that game turned out to be filled with bugs and other faults as well. It doesn't inspire much confidence in gamers when they are dragged out so long.

I got a refund on the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 Just know, nowadays video game companies doesn't care what gamers feels like, they go about creating and molding games they feel like bringing them money. That's why you're seeing more of unpleasing games this days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand That means they're both running on a SNES platform right? I don't own any of them which you mentioned. I am a play station III user.

Companies should really just not announce the release date until they are certain they can deliver it in that time. Expand It's the shit they are doing that I never really liked at all. And it's not like it does them any good to do that but they keep doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
