No its definitely damaging releasing it on the most popular platform a year late.

If Activision released cod on ps4 a year late it would damage it too. It's just business 101

It damages potential sales more than the brand, but that money is likely covered by the company that did the money hat.

CoD is a terrible comparison because it has a new release every year. So if a CoD is a year late then you have two games the next year.

Tomb Raider is not an annual IP and RotTR is a great game. So it'll do fine on PS4. A bad game coming a year late would definitely be hurt in potential sales, given bad games rely on people buying them before its known they suck. Great games still thrive even when they are late.

It damages sales thus the brand.  If people weren't bothered with ROTTR they're less likely to get hyped about the next.  

 

One thing this fiasco has benefited is uncharted 4. Better game and more ps4 owners will choose this instead.  Delighted for Sony.
