If they wanted to fund a sequel that would happened years ago.

No, they don't go with whatever (can you prove your claim?) they pitched the SO themselves to different publishers and they decided for MS (because Sony wanted to retain the IP).

Not claimed ZERO people. I said there aren't that many considering the sales.

There are more factors to consider than sales. There are 1.16m physical sales here on VGC, probably at least 25% digital sales (console digital was around 25% back in 2014, over 40% now), which brings it up to around 1.7m sales. In addition, Sunset was on Games With Gold, where it most likely got at least 800k additional downloads. It is also on Gamepass now, where I wouldn't be surprised if it got at least another 400k players. So all in all I'd bet that the game has been played by at least 3m players, of which probably at least 75% would play a sequel if they released one.  I could easily see MS funding Sunset 2 for next gen, there is definite potential for the IP to grow in the future. 

Yes, let's pad numbers, we totally have evidence for that.

So we have 2.5M sales for SO2 and MS haven't funded it because of reasons? We know they have funded games with less change of sales. So nope I'm not ready to push the 1.16M to 3M to pretend it have 2.5M sales potential being ignored.
