Regardless a decent sized game has an impact. JRPGs don't really have impact either tbh. But both factors combined is why I think it is worse.

There's just a shortage in general of Japan-oriented games on PS5 that can't be played elsewhere I'd say; Sony's exclusives cater almost entirely to Western tastes and the third party stuff is increasingly multiplatform.

2024 was a bit of a golden era for Japanese games for the PS5, it was a good time and sales supported it. Then Sony had the genius idea of increasing the price. Probably a net loss at this point.
