Humble and smart.
Best delay announcement ever.
Smart. I've got at least a week's worth of Hades left to play, and I literally hadn't heard of this game. Now, I'll probably check it out when it drops.
This is the team that worked on dead cells
I thought they were making Windblown?
You're kinda both right - Dead Cells was developed by Motion Twin, who spun off a smaller team called Evil Empire to support it after release. Rogue PoP is developed by Evil Empire, while Motion Twin proper is working on Windblown.
I have been watching the Prince of Persia game, but I would absolutely have glazed right over its release while entranced by Hades II, so yes, I agree with you, it's a very smart decision on their part.
(Also, can I just say, holy shit is Hades II some good value. It's basically two games worth of content in one. More than twice the size of Hades I. Utter insanity.)
Hades 2 is exceptional. Their best game yet.
