Is 3.5 million sales a huge success?

>actually thinks it was in development for 10 years
Retard inbred

Success is relative based on how much money you sank into it and how much you gained from it

Yea, pretty much Horizon and Uncharted 4 did big numbers too, but not that high.

why the fuck Zig Forums cares so much about how mainstream a game is

3.5 million units in 3 days is one of the most successful launches of all time.

Here are some comparable numbers: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fastest-selling_products#Video_games

> RDR2: 10 million in 2 days
> Monster Hunter: World 5 million in 2 days
> Ultimate: 5 million in a week
> FFXV 5 million in A DAY
> GTAV 12 million in A DAY

Obviously FF7R didn't hit any of those benchmarks but the fact that it's even close marks a success.

Bring up candy crush too while you're at it

Retard

>only other ps4 games to do that were Spider-Man and God of War
RDR2 only counting PS4 sales did 8 million in 3 days. Try again.

That's pretty bad for the amount of PS4 owned out there.

Stay seething Snoy fuckboy

FFXVI will always sell better than FFVIIR simply because it's a higher number. This is how normies think, and Square knows it. FFXVI is still a thing, I guarantee it.

Those are all multi-platform games too, though. Isn't the PC/Xbox version still being worked on for FFVIIR?

>FFXVI will always sell better than FFVIIR simply because it's a higher number.
What kind of stupid ass logic is that?
VIIR is widely regarded as one of the greatest games of its generation and all time. SE was jerking off the nostalgia boners for it hard.

Those two factors should've had it seen numbers we couldn't even think of and yet it couldn't do that.

cus more sails means sequels you fucking idiot. If a series don't sell the chancels for sequel go from slim to none.

Why do you stupid fuckheads always bring this up? Artifact by Valve only going on for as far as it did, has nothing to do with the fact of how big of a playerbase STEAM has.

>Isn't the PC/Xbox version still being worked on for FFVIIR?
user...the launch trailer literally has a big fat caption saying "footage recorded on PC". This shit is obviously done but square just loves that sony timed exclusivity cock.

Xbox didn't let Remedy make Alan Wake 2 because of its sales.

YES. This is a 3 parter, where majority of sales were digital, has yet to release on pc/xbox and was designed for cross gen. Likely to have a goty full package edition eventually and dlc. Unless SE spent 200 to dev each game.

>3.5 million in three days
>nearly a month since its release date zero talk about sales

3.5 million SHIPPED

xenoblade 2 sold 3 million copies and wasn't even recognized at game awards lol

For this? Hell no, it's a flop just like Kingdom Hearts 3, just like Sakura Wars and Persona 5 Royal and soon even Pokemon Sword and Shield and soon Xenoblade Chronicles remake. People do not want this trash anymore they want something actually good, something that's not a cut apart game with flashy bullshit while they try and nickel and dime you later, fuck that, make a fucking real game or fuck off even Dragon Quest 11 was a flop

>its a three parter it's supposed to sell poorly

>"footage recorded on PC"
That doesnt mean anything tard, they are developing the game on computers so they will obviously say it was recorded on a computer

For the remake of of one of the most iconic games of all time? No.
I can tell you that Square is disappointed with these results.

yes, more sequels for the underrated final fantasy franchise

>durr they have to constantly give daily updates or it doesnt count

It's crazy that Mortal Kombat 11 outsold Kingdom Hearts 3 last year. People have been sucking their own dicks praying for KH3 since 2006 for ffs

3 million in 3 days for a JRPG is amazing. No final fantasy was never as casual as you guys claim it to be. It's was and still is very popular yes, but it doesn't attract all the filthy casuals the way Fifa, cod, and Mario do. But who cares? Part 2 is being worked on as we speak and it'll be just as fun as the 1st

>VIIR is widely regarded as one of the greatest games of its generation and all time
lmao nigger it just came out

What a polite elephant.

>nearly a month later
>zero sales news

game flopped, just like death stranding did

Yeah. But not on this board. If it doesn't sell 10 million on day one, with 5 million in pre-orders, Zig Forums will call it a flop.

Shills

Ok now you are just pretending to be retarded.
Yes dude that giant sticker on your cover also doesn't mean the game exists for other systems.
Sony is #1 and loves you.

Didn't people champion Bloodborne, Breath of the Wild, and The Witcher 3 mere days after release as being some the best games the industry will ever produce? You sound retarded, bro.

Only retards did that
Shit happens with almost every big game.
Time went by and a lot more criticism about Breath of the Wild and The Witcher 3 became common.
Saying that VIIR is widely regarded as one of the greatest games of all time is some Barry-tier logic.

Not releasing on a single system where over half the installbase only plays sportsball and watches netflix helps.

It's alright sales considering it's on a single platform, but not likely what SE was hoping for. For comparison, Xbox versions of games tend to sell about 30%-50% of their ps4 equivalents, with this being on the lower end because jrpgs tend to under perform on Xbox.

PC could bump this a little but probably no more than 10% of total sales.

Most publishers would actually be fine with these numbers, but SE had far bigger expectations for its tent pole franchise. Just looking at this game I imagine it was one of the most expensive Japanese video games ever developed. On top of that, there's no multiplayer component and thus no reoccurring revenue from MTX (maybe it'll get DLC). Another knock is that as a single player story driven game, once it's beat lots of folks will sell it and people will simply buy used copies on PS4.

what is Ultimate?

>3.5 million sales
as of April 21

Not when your budget is $500M

to think chinks hunt these because they believe their horns will make their micro dick grow
