FF7 Final Fantasy 7 remake sold well!

Final Fantasy VII (1997): Mercenary Cloud Strife joins eco-terrorists to fight a megacorporation draining the planet’s life force. Its cinematic scope, Sephiroth, and 3D leap made it a global phenomenon. AKA Final Fantasy 7, FF7, FFVII
3,500,000 Units are shipped As of: April 12th, 2020 and I heard another 700 thousand more copies are sold as of July. It is the perfect game to play this pandemic because exploring Midgar is the closest thing we have to be outside our homes.
 
Final Fantasy XV actually sold more copies because it is over-marketed but they made more money with This remake because their expectation is not as high. Most people thought only Final Fantasy 7 fans will buy it but people who never played the original bought it. It was less marketed and the positive impact came from word of mouth!! Amazing isn't it!!

They need to use the same formula for the next games. Overmarketing will not make them money but making a good game that leaves positive viral impressions will!
 
There are rumors that Episode 2 might be open world because it will have a bigger map than Midgar. I don't want to give out spoilers for those who never played the original, but I won't be shocked if Episode 2 is open world.
 
The game sold 5 Million copies as of August!I wish they have some small dlc while people waits for the next episode.
 
I thought this game is going to have negative reviews because it only covers Midgar arc but the moment I played the game I am so amazed with the experience. Midgar felt like a real city that is alive. I love that I get to know characters more. Usually when remakes make something longer it make things boring but that is not the case with this game.
You are wrong, this is the best game of the year. I love the episodic approach because I get to know the characters more than the original. I am someone who played the original multiple times.
 
The game sold 5 million Units now! That is not bad for a single player game with no online mode and alternate endings. Remember when people are getting negative about this game but it looks like it is going to surpass the achievements of the original. In a world full of free to play games and piracy, 5 million unit sales is hard to achieve and this remake achieved it in just one year.
 
The graphics are the best part of the remake though I enjoyed both versions.
I try and not get attached to any players Incase they die and it hurts so much. The huge sales are such an achievement. I am sure they have sold more copies by now.
 
This game helped me this pandemic. Exploring the world of Midgar helped me forget all of my problems in this world. It is the distraction I needed to keep my sanity. It is money well spent on my part. I get attached to many characters. I really loved Aerith, I want to see more of her in the future episodes.
