inferior follow up sequels to beloved classic kinos>DMC 2>Max Payne 2 >Deus Ex 2>Metal Gear Solid 2>Zelda 2>Super Mario Bros 2>Silent Hill 2>Catlevania 2>Clock Tower 2 (it's actually the third but whatever)why was this so common?
>>11688535Missed Final Fantasy 2>>Silent Hill 2Bait
>>11688535>Super Mario Bros 2usa is a better gamelost levels is worse
>>11688560>Missed Final Fantasy 2FF1 is not a beloved classic, 99% of FF fags never touched it>BaitSH2 sucks, deal with it
>>11688535Regression to the mean. On average, things are average. Typically the things that get sequels are better than average. Sheer statistics put them at a disadvantage.
>>11688535>>Metal Gear Solid 25th game in the series>>Castlevania 23rd game in the series
>>11688535I started with DMC2, MGS2, and Zelda 2.
those animal levels are dogshit
>>11688535>Max Payne 2>Metal Gear Solid 2>Silent Hill 2Those are best games in the series
>another rage bait thread
>>11688729Max Payne 1 is better than 2
>>11688714get good
Sonic 2's modern reputation is unfair, it was an impressive game at release
>>11688535technically metal gear solid 2 is the fourth game you dumb shit head
>>11688560It's the weakest in the entire franchise and doesn't justify its existence
>>11689340So is WoW technically Warcraft IV by your logic?
>>11688561>usa is a better gameusa is a desperate fake hackrom*
Crash 2 was good
>>11688535Dungeon Keeper 2
>>11688736Not him, but it's not, sorry.
>>11690083not him but it is, not sorry.
>>11688535>asshole makes a lot of games>occasionally gets a hit>sequel is basically just another game by asshole, meaning it isn't a game that you've heard of because it was good enough to recommend but rather you heard of it because it's named after a game that was good enough to recommend. So it's just that asshole's average output, not one of his peaksOn the other hand better part 2s are usually caused by the first game barely having the budget to pull off the vision, but succeeding anyway. Second game gets all it needs to complete the stuff that was underbudget in 1. Then the third game usually struggles because they need new ideas.
>>11689340You're forgetting Snake's Revenge
>>11688714You were filtered by Animal Attics, right?
>>11690074Only bad because one of the patches broke the enemy AI, earlier versions are excellent.
>>11688736>>11690083>>116901022 looks, plays and sounds better but 1 has the better story and atmosphere.
>>11692257i would love for 1 remade in 2's engine.
>>11690052>>11690074>>11690047Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2 is amazing
>>11688535>gamedevsOh shit oh fuck we gotta experiment there's no way people will accept more of the same>peopleOh fuck oh shit I need more of the same nothing new I must consoooom
>>11688535>game is successful >try to push out a sequel as quickly as possible while game is still relevant they know it'll sell even if it sucks
>>11692294>Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2 is amazingnot retro and it fucking sucks

>>11688535Contentious would be a better word than inferior here as lot of these weren’t reviewed extremely well. Silent Hill 2 doesn’t apply to either inferior or contentious and was your sneaky bait.I stand by Invisible War being a great game that just could never live up to its predecessor and was doomed from the start. It was certainly contentious though.

>>11692761>1st game v2.0This is bullshit you're using to inflate the number of other franchises, though. Stay consistent, retard.
>>11692767Holy ESL, Batman!
>>11688535you forgot metal gear
>>11692789Ya, you do speak English as a second language, we get it.
>>11692692handheld games aren't canon
>>11692891>n-no uCome on, Sanjay, you gotta try harder than that. Apply yourself like you're applying for Canadian citizenship.
>>11692858i was going to name it but honestly it wasn't really that inferior, 2 is seen as the weakest link of the trilogy only because the superior X exists and it completely replace it there is no need to touch 2
>>11689271>Sonic 2's modern reputation is unfairWhat reputation? Isn't it considered better than sonic 1?
>>116922571 has better music than 2
>>11690858If you're including stuff like Snakes Revenge, you'd also have to include Ghost Babel, so MGS2 would be the sixth game.
