vycebrand2 03/28/24 9:21:41 AM #9:	I thought they already owned it. I believe they were their publisher for a long time.

Clearly, the best thing to do in the market is to release a worse but similar style game as your competitor immediately after they release theirs. You'll get all of those sales from folks that got confused and purchased the wrong game when they meant to buy Overwatch --- I don't believe in belts.
