Those are completely different games?
Those other two games are single player rpgs

Not the same as Legacy being a pvpve game with full loot. They aren't comparable. And imo Legacy looks much better than those other two

The games you mention here, have very different gaming styles, one is a souls-like, and the other is a rogulike/roguelites while this game is a extraction looter. what is the problem with these games releasing at the same time?

had I been looking for a dark-fantasy title I'd need to pick from these 3 had these 3 games been released on separate dates during a month or two there would not be a need for me to choose.

What I want to say is only 1 if not less of them will be successful due to such stubborn release date being picked.

These are indie games and they're not meant to make much, but still, it's a common sense, in a street full of suchi food only one restraunt will do well - the closect to the main street or one known for it's best food.

Similar rule can be applied here, out of these 3, best screenshots are on Legacy: Steel & Sorcery which means two other games are dead on arrival.

Nah man. If the other two were multiplayer extraction games, then I could kind of see where your coming from. People are much more inclined to choose based on gameplay and not theme especially for this style of game. One of these (this game) is nowhere near like the others in this regard, especially considering the multiplayer pvp focus.

To use your restaurant example, yes a street full of sushi food restaurant is problematic. But this scenario more accurately depicts a street with a sushi restaurant, burger joint, Chinese restaurant, bakery, ect. Sure maybe the buildings are similar because they're in a strip mall (theme) but the food is very different.

Are you going to the restaurant based on how pretty it is, or what you actually want to eat?

BOOM OP's head explodes

Then they think to themselves "maybe i'm the crazy one after all"

I found another one, releasing just ONE HOUR BEFORE this game.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2317640/JUMP_KING_QUEST/

This one has:
* hoods
* capes
* swords
* castles
* trees
* grass

Can anybody help me decide? Today I was looking to play a game with hoods, capes, swords, castles, trees, and grass, but it seems there are four games releasing all in the same time window, How will I ever be able to choose?

There are video games coming out every single day. Those games you listed coming out are not big games and will not cannibalize the game. It's one thing to avoid big releases such as a new COD or GTA 6 but to say this game is going to die because two other games are coming out which aren't even in the same game type is illogical and truly makes this seem like you are attempting to troll.

Dude I do not buy games based on themes.. I buy them based on the type of game they are.. I am interested in a LOOTER SHOOTER therefore the other games you listed mean nothing to me. I did not even know those games existed before you brought them up.. I think you are reaching like.. a lot.
lmao just so hilarious to see how moronic this guy is. it's like trying to compare pasta with pizza.
