Did people move on? Or did the franchise? There were three Bioshock games in one generation then absolutely nothing since. It just vanished.
Well yeah, that's what I was getting at. It's tough for characters to stay fresh in people's minds forever. It's why 2018 had a number of western characters dropping off because they hadn't had a game in years. If you aren't the mascot of an eternally long-running series, or regularly appearing in spinoffs, or a nostalgia darling that captured people during their formative years...you're gonna suffer as the years go on.
