List in the OP is pretty good. Some other franchises I like a lot that might be top ten for me-

  • Metal Gear Solid

  • Mass Effect

  • Kingdom Hearts

  • Super Mario

Bruh, I can’t believe such a cool franchise got shut down because one bad game came out. I never asked for this.

Keeping my fingers crossed we’ll get new ones now that Square sold off all their western developers.

With both Mankind Divided and Cyberpunk 77 doing poorly I’m a bit worried publishers are scared of going into that space.

Honestly, it would be prime time, in my opinion, to get another Shadowrun as it would scratch both the itch of lack of a Cyberpunk entry AND lack of new Mass Effect content (as I feel like the Shadowrun games were almost like “cyberpunk mass effect” in a sense).

Time will tell.

I think that one recovered okay. The recent update fixed a lot of issues and I’ve sunk quite a few hours into it.

Yoshi P must have ridiculous back pain carrying an entire company on his shoulders constantly.

Without a doubt.

The game industry blows my mind sometimes. A franchise with hundreds of millions in revenue was just going to be shut down because their B-Team stumbled. It’s crazy. It’s absolutely insane to think that Mass Effect could have just ended. I really don’t get it.

Resident Evil is like all over the place, probably the franchise with the most radical redefinitions ever. It’s hard to even say “I’m a fan of Resident Evil” because the games are so different from one another. The name certainly has some level of pull but I haven’t played it since Resident Evil Revelations 2 so it doesn’t THAT much pull. Maybe one day they’ll have a true sequel to Resident Evil 4, I dunno.

Andromeda got too much heat, imo. It wasn’t fantastic but it was still decent. The animations were janky and the story was iffy but my god, the combat was spectacular lol.
