In same month with Skyrim,Uncharted,MW3….
I KNOW its not same genre but they should release it at least September or December.

Indeed, this seems like the worst possible time for them to launch it. It looks pretty interesting, but it’s hardly been setting the internet alight with excitement so burying it in among all the heavy-hitters just seems like madness.

A September release would be perfect tbh. I would probably pick it up.

In fairness to them, this isn’t like previous holiday release tsunamis where you saw the disaster coming a year off. This one kind of congealed in the last few months with delays and surprise date “makes”.
Still…they should definitely find cause to kick it into the winter, otherwise the only people making money on it will be half.com.
