The only thing that makes sense in my head as to why Until Dawn is underperforming is the game's lack of promotion. Aside from a couple of trailers, I have barely seen Sony promote this remaster.

Couldn't possibly be that people don't want to keep paying new game prices for remasters....

People live rebuying decade old console exclusives on the next console generation.

Lol Sony trying to LARP as Nintendo

This one also got dinged in reviews for technical performance issues, and there were some changes they made to the art direction, so this isn't strictly speaking a "better" version of that game.

Whenever people say this, I imagine they have adblockers on YouTube?

I can't say I have strong reasoning for it, but I've never set that up, and I've gotten a bunch of ad spam around the release...
