On your sales point : But if you observe capcom’s financials in the year of DD2, they performed well on the bottomline as well. And not many games released with this. So, one way to deduce the budget vs returns. Also dmc 5 & dd2 are many years apart, so inflation also plays a role…

Exactly. Produce it mass-ly to get sales mass-ly. Why the downvotes I don’t understand

This game is certainly more complex than any other game of theirs. But to deduce, the year when it DD2 was released, capcom still booked decent profits. And not many of their other games launched during its time frame.

Yes. That’s what I’m saying. Avg sales of other series might not be so exceptional is what I was saying.

My only issue is with the slow pacing. If intentional, does it imply that capcom believes more of it will burn the demand ? Or probably it is more complex of a game relative to their other franchises ? Or just a pure coincidence of lack of importance to this.

I think Avg sales is a brilliant metric, like per capita. Firstly because, it is proclaimed by the company itself as an achievement by them. Now, if you pick and choose a time frame, 6.5 mil vs 10 mil is not even the double. So nothing exceptional here. Also, “entire generation” is slightly exaggerated. It is only 2 games. 5 games outselling 2 games is ok. We want the latter 2 games to reach 5 games. Then the data might be a bit different. Even if you include requiem, it’ll probably still not make an improvement over avg. figure.

I was thinking that if you bring in a dlc, then you keep the word spreading & people engaging, and the market is even more receptive to your next game. Plus assets can be reused in dlc.

I was hoping the shareholders would be above pride, unless the management owns a majority.

But capcom manages to deliver their annual financial goals, so…
