Unless they've got an instant breakaway hit (which not even Factorio was), they'll see a ho-hum launch week in terms of purchases and an almost complete flat-line beyond that. Consumers are trained to wait for the sale. And so if they want to eat and have a roof over their head, there's only one option left. It's a vicious cycle, and very few are in a position to try to break it.
