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.

This game is really good, 100% up to PlayStation standards.

I'm glad they added a demo because I fee llike this game went under the radar because people didn't know what it was.

It didn’t, I think they said it was one of their best sellers even more then wo long and that was “free” on Gamepass.

Even did better then stellar blade from what team ninja reported.

It is a very fun game, I have been playing in in spurts because well, summer time is usually for doing things outside for me.

I think the hate was merely because it was exclusive and wasn’t on GP. The people who wanted it bought it and that’s what matters

I mean, do you see any anthropomorphic cats running around? "Real life" doesn't really comport fictional creatures, so what else were you expecting if not some sort of sculpture/art? The sorry end of a tux cat on r/badtaxidermy?

The quality is undeniable.
