HM had been pretty niche for years at that. The last time you saw people really talking about it was HM64. It and Rune Factory spent the following decades being "too anime" to make a big wave.
They were popular relatively, but among people who were already fans of the series and genre. Most people weren't gonna stumble into them randomly and pick it up on a whim. Popular amongst the already niche crowd.
Stardew went mainstream popular, which is a whole different beast.
