Given how mediocre and unpolished the footage so far has looked, then it's understandable .

This is good for the game, but it's going to hurt the title financially.

I don't think another delay will hurt it's sales. Final Fantasy Versus 13/Final Fantasy 15 took 10 years, and it's one of the top 5 bestselling Final Fantasy games and will probably end up being top 3 once all is said and done.  As long as the quality of the game actually goes up thanks to the delay, and as long as they pick a smart release window, Crackdown 3's sales should benefit from the delay. Now releasing Crackdown 3 this Fall/Holiday, that would have hurt it's sales. It would have been financial suicide to send it out this Fall/Holiday against Red Dead Redemption 2, CoD Black Ops 4, Battlefield V, and possibly Fallout 76 and Assassin's Creed Odyssey. They just need to pick a smart release window in 2019, a month when there is very little AAA western competition. 

FFXV got delayed into a fresh generation though. Crackdown 3 is delayed into the death part of the generation.
