According to Steam Spy, Grimm Eclipse sold around 300,000 copies. If it had sales even remotely similar on console then it would be about in line with the average BlazBlue game in sales. The BlazBlue anime came out five years after the first game. By that time the various games had reportedly managed to get nearly 2 million copies sold altogether. Not gonna say anything about critical reception, but the sales pciture is not that extreme a difference. Given RWBY is not a video game franchise it is probably pretty popular as an overall franchise. Apparently, in Japan the blu-rays topped the animé charts at one point. The fact people don't know it just means it isn't that popular.
