Zelda: BOTW is a Nintendo made game that only needs to sell 2M to be considered successful. Western studios work in different ways. Games like Tomb Raider needed 5M to break even. Big AAA games are expensive. Unless BG&E2 will be a completely different game from the first one ofcourse.

I think you have that info wrong dear,  after 2m the game is profitable so 2m is to pay for the development cost, so to make money they need a lot more than 2m, which is going to be easy for this zelda. But why? not because the games are cheaply made, but because their biggest team just have 200 developers, while games like tomb raider and assassin's creed have a lot more developers, sometimes even 1000 developers because they are making the games for  3 platforms and a shorter period of time, not 5 years. Exclusive games don't need that quantity of developers.

So you are saying that Ubisoft has been working on BG&E2 for like 4 years for the Switch? or that it wont come out until like 2020?
