Topic	Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Has Reportedly Sold About Half of What FF7 Remake Did
the_rowan 04/14/24 10:53:20 PM #66:	Lord_Ephraim posted... If someone didn't buy Remake, they're not going to buy Rebirth even if Rebirth is considered a much better game. Players don't feel obligated to play Rebirth until they play Remake, and you still have those who are holding out until every single piece of the Final Fantasy 7 remake compilation is out. Not to mention those who played Remake and didn't like it aren't going to have their minds changed if Rebirth got a better metacritic. You missed the very important point that Remake (non-Intergrade version) was free on PS Plus a couple years ago, which means it had a large number of players who didn't purchase the game. I'm assuming those players are not counted in the sales figures, at least. There has to be a sizable portion of this player base that is largely interested in the game a bit, but not enough to buy a PS5 for it or pay full price for the game. --- "That is why war is so tragic.
