Oh Aaandyyy!!
How is Persona 5 ($59.00) niche when it surpassed 1.8 million in sales back in July? I mean are we sure Hellblade ($39.00 - Gothic game about mental illness), Cuphead ($19.00 - 1940's artstyle where you play as cups and die every 15 seconds), and Nier ($60.00 - The upskirt AI bullet hell action RPG) are over 2 million sold at this point?
Also, I think your perception of gamer response is a little biased against Persona 5 as well. Not only did it earn a 93 critically at OpenCritic and Metacritic, but the gamer score at both sites was also higher than your beloved Horizon Zero Dawn. In fact, the gamer score on both sites score it higher than pretty much all AAA games this year. So if the response was "mixed" amongst PS gamers, you're using the term pretty loosely are you not?
Lastly, I'm assuming most of us at the Union are going to battle with depression, guilt, and addiction to controlled substanses once this poll finalizes. We're definitely not going to be a dependable group after this.
