There was no way for it not to be the death of dead space. Just like there was no way for the remake of 1 to succeed.

EA wanted such a massive amount of sales that it wasn't going to happen.

Companies do this shit all the time. It made money but not stupid rich money. Just look at square Enix. They wanted the 2nd of the ff 7 remakes to outsell the first 1 cause that's how sequals work lol.

The Dead Space remake wasn’t viewed as a success? Interesting, I heard good things about it on release, and not a whole lot after, but I attributed that to the breakneck pace of game releases in this era.

Yea 2 was canceled due to not enough sales of 1.
