Well I wouldn't say you can compare Metallica's and Guns 'n 'Roses' popularity to Clair Obscur which was an alternative darkwave band. This is a French game based on Belle Epoque themes but on a fictional darker side of this era without the optimism.
I'm very curious what percentage of these 1M copies were sold in USA. A wild guess would be around 10% max.

I'd be very surprised if it was that low, given how much the American game media has lauded the game and how big of a market the US is.

A movie is already in development. Hopefully it does the game justice.
