I missed the elves in my first Dragon’s Dogma 2 playthrough, but I won’t make that mistake again

Man, every time I see how Rebirth isn’t selling as good it saddens me. I hope to god Square doesn’t try to change up future FF games to try to sell more because I strongly feel the template for this Remake Trilogy should be the future of FF games.
It was first in the February PS Store charts:

And still 3rd in the March charts.
Yea but you have to think numbers. If all games sold 1 and one game sold 10, it’d be number 1 for that month.
The units sold are around 2 mill and for context FF16 failed to meet expectations at 3 mill. Most sales are strong during the launch date… after that it tapers down and even though more copies can add up, they’re usually sold at a sale, which isn’t how you really make your money back initially.
It sucks, man. Square really did it right with this game and it goes to show them it doesn’t sell well. Just bums me out thinking what the future is for this series.
They are already working on the third part, so I don't think it will be affected in the short term at least. And I think that if other JRPGs can survive with far lower sales (like Persona 3 Reload and Yakuza Infinite Wealth) it should be okay. And those two games were considered successful and were multiplatform on day one too.
