I bet nobody else has the dates better than Willis.
Because Quake had been out and well established, and Unreal and Half-Life were already released, they didn't want to be too dated. But as we all know, the publishers forced the release WAY before the Blood 2 team wanted to, which resulted in, well, Blood 2 as we know it.
The only date I'm not really certain on that I posted is the actual Blood retail release date. It was publicized as May 31, 1997, however, it actually hit shelves before then. Monolith themselves made a note about it themselves in their last "weekly" Blood update
here, which is why I quote the 16th.
