What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from? (piefed.social)

For example, for me, I would *love* a new Populous game based from what was done in Populous 3. That, and a new SimCity based on SimCity 4!

Earthbound. Even an official western release of Mother 3 would be nice.

Parasite Eve, hell even a remake of the first would be welcome

THPS 3+4 please

i want the Just Cause series to continue on from the second installment but instead of focusing on the movement, focus on the world building and setpieces. the plot in JC2 is completely batshit insane and ends in a fistfight atop a speeding ICBM. they kinda just forgot about that part in the sequels in favor of adding tornado guns or whatever.

half-life 3 but apparently gabben only uses his ceo power to shut down discussions about making hl3

Mercenaries. Made by dice would be killer, would be a great opportunity for them to explore different mechanics and maybe even inspire a better battlefield.

The Saboteur had such great potential. I enjoyed the concept and the artistic use of color in the game.

The Darkness.

Also, Prototype, but someone already mentioned that.

Sonic Riders, the currently dead Sonic racing spin-off. Don't have any experience with the third entry since I've never used a kinect, but building/branching off of Zero Gravity would be amazing.

I really want a Condemned 3 that wraps up Ethan vs SKX. They never got a proper final face-off in 2, and (spoilers) since SKX has joined the Oro and Ethan's unlocked his yelling power or whatever, it would be nice to have that loose end tied up.

A new die hard trilogy game still based on the original movie trilogy but using a modern engine and graphics

I'd love to see Monkey Island revived as a more open-world style game on the order of Fallout.

Disciples, the 2 is still one of my favorite games. The 3 was crap

StarCraft. I never played Legacy of the Void campaign and I was told the ending was bad. Would be nice to have a StarCraft III though

[-] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 4 months ago

I would love to see Homeworld 3. I know we have HW3, but what we got isn't Homeworld.

Arc the Lad in the art of the originals set after III. To be clear, Twilight of the Spirits would still be canon, but it's also 1,000 years in the future.
