"Remember how great QFI3 was? Relive a brand-new, earlier adventure in the prequel QFI2 !!!"
Wait... you mean someone would try to advertise that they've made game number 2 - which was already out there and established - in a series that was already well past that point, both story-wise and technologically? I can't see anybody being interested in a rerelease like that.
I'm sorry -- I didn't make myself clear.
It's a twist on the old "If you liked Game #1, then you'll love Game #2!" type of advertising -- but in reverse.
When QFI1 comes out, pretend that QFI2 has been out for several years (even though it doesn't technically exist yet), and that IA has made the prequel to the non-existent QFI2 because of such high demand: hence, QFI1 !
Then when QFI2 comes out, pretend that QFI3 has been out for several years (even though it doesn't technically exist yet), and that IA has made the prequel to the non-existent QFI3 because of such high demand: hence, QFI2 !
Guess it wasn't so clever in retrospect.
I blame lack of sleep on my part.
