Because, based on previous years' offerings,* Epic was almost
certainly going to offer "Football Manager 2025" sometime in September
of this year as one of its free games. But, alas, the entire game has
been cancelled due to "product quality" concerns, so Epic is going to
have look elsewhere for a free game in seven months time.

I find this novel, refreshing, and I hope Sega makes a ton of money by
reintroducing the concept of fewer, better releases to their product
line.

I think BG III in no small part alerted the industry to this tack. You
make a better game? You make bank.
