Rumorzone: FF7 Rebirth selling half as well as Remake

Since it was mentioned earlier, I don't think XVI had much if any impact of Rebirth's sales, regardless of what you think of it. This isn't a Zesteria situation where some well was poisoned (which wouldn't make sense anyways since XVI is a good game that was well received amongst the majority).

Frankly, I don't even consider them the same thing at this point. I think, and I wouldn't be surprised if some folks are Square think, that FF7 is it's own franchise distinct from FF at this point.
