Buying a remaster in hopes for a new game is a foolish way to think, they say its to gauge interest in the series, but the company itself has no interest in making a new game if they aren't even confident enough in the series to begin with. They lost all the original talents for these franchises, whatever hands they fall into wont even have 1/10th of the original creators vision or understanding what made such a dead & dormant franchise loved by people for 2 decades. It's so fucking apparent when you look at and compare the original games to the remasters it's in hands that don't understand it.

Secondly, no amount of sales will ever be enough to please gaming industry giants, standards are unrealistically high, it could be a miserable flop that tricked a few people into buying it, or an astounding success that makes a ton of money, but all the money will just be put towards their big budget flagship games. SquareEnix is a prime example of this, they snowball all profits made from their good shit into giant box-office bombs like Marvels Avengers & Forspoken.
