What do you even mean? Hollow Knight was a massive success, so was Bloodstained, Ori, Metroid Dread, etc. People can't stop memeing that Silk song is not releasing because they refuse to forget about it, Ubi's reputation is just in the gutter so to capture the audience that enjoys these games again they have to do multiple good things, not just one and give up.
Those games did well, it doesn't mean the genre is among the most popular and i bet they didn't approach those level of sales. I wasn't throwing shade, that's just facts. I also mentioned ubis or reputation adding to this.
