I'll make a bet, which probably won't ever have a chance to pan out, but still....
If ever a game comes out that has monster hunting AND crafting similar to monhun, it will outsell every other clone. Guaranteed.

People keep saying that Battlefield does everything better than COD, while BF has done better, it still gets smacked on by COD. Won't happen.

It's a brand that people gravitate to and will sell regardless of platform. It's just as big as Pokemon.

I'm not saying it would outsell monhun. I'm saying it would outsell the clones. The worst news I ever heard was that soul sacrifice didn't have crafting. Killed all my anticipation for the game.

Anyway, it's more like I'm saying "I bet if there was a game that was much more similar to cod, but had some cool differences, it would outsell all the other war games", and then battlefield comes out.

Soul Sacrifice has spell crafting, which is really the same because you don't have weapons. 

The only problem is that those clones (which are really new IPs or spinoffs of existing) have sold pretty damn well and it'll take a lot for a new one to sell 800-900k which is what you're suggesting.
