This is a great point. As far as franchise awareness, Persona has the ball right now. Star Ocean has been gone for a good six years or so and we will not see 5 for another year or so. The last entry was billed a disappointment relative to the previous entries. Contrast that with Persona, which has had multiple games over the past few years released to critical acclaim and moderately successful sales, with P4G reaching a million or so on a handheld that is not that popular. Persona right now is in a better place than Star Ocean is and has more franchise visibility. Sometimes, being fresh in the public's mind is all it takes. |
Not to mention, vanilla Persona 4 and Golden both had their own animes, as well. Persona 3 has gotten three movies and will be getting its fourth.
