We all love games and we love sequels too but what some games do is lag on meaning it has multiple sequels and even aren't even that good. So how many sequels does it take for a series to lag on and do you know any lagging series.

servbot128:

*cough* Pokémon*cough*

Really, it depends on the sequels. There's actual sequels, and then there's just...oh, look, another game in the same world, like Zelda, Mario...Assassin's Creed seems to be stretching the fine line of 'where do we go from here' with their Revolutionary War game. Any more games and we'll be playing Spiderman/Assassin in downtown 80's New York.

I agree I mean if you look at the Mario series I can't even call them sequels any more but spin offs that involves anything that may seem interesting to the creators because when you look at Mario galaxy I don't think it's "Mario in space" but "what if Mario was in space."

servbot128: I haven't played Mario Galaxy, and I probably won't-I saw the commercial and it didn't look fun to me. It looked a bit frantic and a lot gimmicky.

Take the Zelda games-for all the 'new ideas' they're throwing in, it's been consistently the same formula forever: young boy, kidnapped princess, get three gems, get a Master Sword, collect seven gems/keys/crystals, kill Gannon, win game. Whoo. Oh and along the way collect the same items you've been collecting in almost every game. It's nice when they throw something new in there, but...once it's in, it's in every game after that forever. 

Some people love these games because of that. Some people hate them. I'm on the fence about it, but I still play them. I prefer the older ones, to be honest. 

The other thing that annoys me is when they make a 'sequel' that really doesn't have anything to do with the previous games except the name. Final Fantasy anyone? Don't get me wrong. I LOVE those games. But...maybe we should stop with the numbering. Until they started with the X-2 and the direct sequel to 13(?), no single game had anything at all to do with the previous ones except ripping off ideas. Maybe they could keep the Final Fantasy thing, but NAME each one different? (Final Fantasy: Rainbow's End or something). Instead of just giving it a number.

I think it depends on the game itself. Say they make a game with 100 installments in it. if each new game in the series was good and had it's own good story, it would be fine. Problem is, so many games are either too radical of a departure from the original (some going as far as making the sequel a completely different genre), or a complete carbon copy of the original. It's indeed a fine line to be tolled.

I guise and one thing I don't like is when they make sequel and it feels like just some spin off.
