...Wait wait wait, am I reading that right? There was a huge TLoU2 leak just before the match...and everyone's convinced that it hurt TLoU? On the site where being announced for Brawl made a bunch of characters boost in 2007 and then Brawl actually coming out made them deboost in 2008? Where Lightning is worth 36% on Sonic in a true 1v1 before FFXIII is out in the US, and then can't even beat an LFF'd Donkey Kong, King of the Chokers, three years later? Where Cloud's only 1v1 loss to anyone other than Link was Mario on Super Mario Sunshine's release date, Charizard won a division because the final was on HGSS's release date, and Golden Sun upset GTA San Andreas on Dark Dawn's release date--note that two of these three games ended up as huge disappointments. Hype is far more powerful than actual games; these leaks must've made it out to be absolutely awful for that to backfire.

Weren't they the ones that started the Undertale rally though? I could've sworn the tumblr that started the Undertale movement was actually devoted to Dark Souls and we were wondering why they didn't rally that game instead.
Actually, the so-called "honeymoon" phase for games is equally as powerful as the "hype" stage.
