And it's easily the best selling RPG franchise of all time. FF13, for all of the hate it got, still sold 7.7 million copies (as of 2017). FF15 sold 10 million copies (as of 2022). FF7R sold 7 million copies (as of 2 months ago). FF16 sold 3 million copies in it's first week (they haven't released more recent numbers yet). Other recent releases have sold huge numbers, but let's not act like Final Fantasy is suddenly irrelevant now. That's what they already sold on the PS1 though. There's no growth.
