man that's... they're full on kowtowing. just lie and say there's a bug, don't act so pathetic.
All publicity is good publicity. If they explicitly namedrop Hades II like this, news will spread about the game that got delayed because of Hades II, and all the Hades II fans will be more likely to see it and look into it. They might get a handful of new players as a result. This is certainly the first I'm hearing of it, and I don't even care for Hades II, so it's obviously helping its reach.
It's compounded with the fact that it's a very safe genre game (2d platformer roguelite, wow) built on a 35 year old IP. It's so by-the-numbers. Gushing for pity points with OhHeyGuysWeLikePopularGameToo just rubs me the wrong way.

Isn't just common courtesy to praise a competitor when citing them?
If they hadn't praised the game, then the message could easily come across as spiteful. Like them being upset at Supergiant or something. Which is likely not the case.
When Microsoft mentions Nintendo they praise them. When Nintendo mentions Playstation, they praise them. When Playstation mentions Microsoft. They praise them.
Generally. Of course.
>man that's... they're full on kowtowing. just lie and say there's a bug, don't act so pathetic.
But why? I don't really get why so many appear to be so afraid of just being honest about this kind of stuff.
>Huge [Insert Title Here] released right within our launch window!
>Even for fans of both games, this will cut into their available time or money for both games
>Let's space this out a little
In what way is that unreasonable? It's better than when all the games release at the same time. Even from my consumer perspective.
this. if anything, it makes the studio more sympathetic because it acknowledges that the game it is competing with is good and something they themselves play. mutual respect is good, even if it's just there for publicity reasons
>more like The Woke Prince of Persia, am I right?
>Release
>Early Access
Get that shit out of my face
both are early access but folks treat it as if it's the real release, this is the crossing point in which companies have trained consumers that this is the common practice now.
EA means full release at this point. Has there been any EA game that has actually changed significantly from EA to "release"? It's just a tag you use to pretend the half-finished features are going to be added, and to imply that you're going to be supporting the game for a couple of years.
This looks better
Honestly I appreciate the sincerity
Smart decision overall.
holy shit they should just can this CalArts tumblr nose trash

>CalArts... le bad
Any other milquetoast lukewarm takes?
It's amazing how from 5 seconds of game footage you can tell this was made by morons.
>dev uses pro wrestling memes
All right, wishlisted.
Why the frick are Ubisoft releasing a 2D sidescroller in early access?
Don't they have thousands of employees across the globe? What are the rest of them doing?
This is by Evil Empire, former Dead Cells devs. They got kicked off of that game despite wanting to make more updates for it due to the publisher just deciding that it's done now, and this is their new game.

Oh. That explains a lot.
Damn. That's a shame for Dead Cells.
Oh no, a business decision? How pathetic!
Had Ubisoft patented the rewind time mechanic? Why can't no one make a game with that one?
TimeShift came out after Sands of Time and it had rewind.
is there a name for this style of writing?
like you can tell an annoying homosexual is saying those words even through just text
yeah i do see how someone can look at this and think they stand no chance against literally any other game
maybe just can it altogether and start over
Why is blud pink?
If they made him any shade of brown/black/pistachio they’d offend any number of xir sects and be harassed off the internet due to a critical lack of spine. So they went outlandish
Holy shit
was right, they are giving their characters Tumblr noses
As terrible as it looks, at least it looks better than Hades 2, and even 1...
>[ANNOYING NEWS]
sad cuz this game looked cool, but I also remembered that I don't give a frick about rougelites so...whateva
Why do I feel an urge to thank the medical professionals right now?
Delaying because you're afraid of another game is pretty idiotic when two games don't have playerbase overlap
Horizon Forbidden West went ahead against Elden Ring without giving a frick and it didn't affect them.
Damn, the game's that bad huh?
