Simple answer:

It hasn't been released in Europe.

It seems we're getting a raw deal when it comes to RPGs once again. It's just like the 16-bit era

And when you do get them, you buy twice, thrice, ten times less. Look at Persona 4 NA vs Others... VC NA vs Others.. Tales of Vesperia 360 NA vs Others...

Buy them, receive them. And fuck, you have a PS3, IMPORT FROM NA.

Yeah, the sales are pretty disappointing here, which is strange, since most of the more hardcore RPG fans I know are European (a lot of them seem to be Norwegian; of course, that's just my personal experience). Maybe there's a vicious circle; RPGs aren't pushed very hard in Europe, so their sales are low. Their sales are low, so Europe isn't seen as much of a potential market and games either aren't released or aren't advertised much. Until that circle is broken somehow, RPGs will continue to be a niche market here
