Totally deserved! This game is really something else. Just awesome and fun to play. REVII was a slow seller, Village will reach 5 millions way faster at full price.

Good to see it performing well. But the pandemic and more platforms didn't revert the series decline.
First week (roughly):
RE6 4.5M
RE5 4M
RE2R 3M
RE8 3M
RE7 2.5M
RE3 2M
At least Capcom is having realistic expectations now (based on the leaks, 5.2M First Quarter and 7.3M First Year)

It is set to be the best selling RE ever created beating RE7.
7.3m in first year tells you pretty much that.

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
Plus it’s a next gen title imagine it being a launch title, why did the game need 7 more months? Anyway, RE7 was Wild it’s hard to imagine fps re being a thing.

Awesome to see. I really enjoyed my time with the game.
From what I've seen, a lot of people that have bashed it were expecting something completely different. Or they had surreal expectations that wouldn't and couldn't be met no matter what. I went in hoping it'd be just as good as RE7 if not better, and while the experience is different I think it delivered just that. Good time for sure.

Just stop.
I've heard that crap for a very long time you're literally fucking talking about one of the most successful Resident Evil games and I've seen no evidence even remotely to suggest that Capcom was disappointed with Resident Evil 7 sales.
I mean Jesus Christ you're talkin about a game that moved over 8 million units...
So I'm not really sure how long people could keep singing that fake ass tune that they must be "disappointed".

You aren't shipping 3 million units if you're only selling 100k

Resident Evil 7 may not have hit its sales target, but it still shifted 3.5 million units - Capcom financials
Capcom has reported its 2017 year-end financials, and while Resident Evil 7 had an overall solid performance, Dead Risi…

It indeed had legs... and that is a way different concept from full priced sales.

3.5 million instead of 4 million is not a flop by any means bud.Man.

Read again my post that you quoted.
BTW they are still below expectations.
Capcom target 10 million sales lifetime with RE7... maybe they reach there.

yea..........LIFETIME SALES.
You know not of where RE7's sales will rest in a LIFETIME bud. Its already one of the best selling RE games.
Its a tired spin that gets old every time the game reaches a milestone. With RE8 having a deep connection to RE7, the sales will continue and this is before a remaster on PS5 and Series X...BEFORE 1 fucking remaster the game is at 8 plus million.

Man in no part of the article Capcom talks about te sales because they already talked in the earnings... I mean they talked about why it underperformed.
You are hilarious... I’m not even sure why are fighting against reality.

Ha, right."... near masterpiece..."

Too much love for the OG Series and Remake 2. Top five: OG 96, RE2, RE3, CVX, Remake 2. Village would be #6 though for sure.
Love this game. Doing a 2nd playthrough right now and it's just as good so far. Nice noticing small things I missed on the first run.

I know this is an old discussion but i thought RE7 had become the 2nd, or 1st best selling RE game already?. I'm sure i read that on here in the past.
Capcom can have what expectations it wants, but RE7 has been a success by franchise standards.

Agreed. All this before any official next gen remaster in 4k with extras. Looking at how well RE8 has sold and how it ties with RE7, I thinks its clear RE9 will have a lot to do with that storyline and the sales of RE7 will continue when people realize what happens in 8 and 9, starts with 7.
