I'm having the hardest time lately, because I seem to be the only person in the world that
hates sequels, especially to video games. They always ruin the whole story for me! I know somebody will tell me to just ignore the sequel then, but once a sequel's been made, I can't ignore it. There's a difference to me between games that are singular and games that are in a series. Singular games feel more "solid", whereas series games are more "lofty" (you never know when they'll make
another sequel. I just can't stand it, because they almost never do a good job, and when they do, it's still not good enough to live up to the original. There's only one game series I can think of where this isn't the case (that would be Myst; I think the 3rd is the best, not the 1st).
Anyway, this minor rant is brought on by a rather sad piece of news for me. See, my favorite game is The World Ends With You (this game means the world to me; not only is it a good story, but it helped me through some really rough times in my life, strange as it sounds). I just found out that Neku, the main character, is making a cameo in the upcoming Kingdom Hearts 3D. I'm absolutely sure Square Enix is testing the water with it, as if Neku makes an appearance, the fanbase for TWEWY will certainly grow (as TWEWY is not very well known, but KH is), and the demand for a sequel would rise even higher. But a sequel would ruin TWEWY. Completely. I cringe at the thought of my favorite game in the entire world being corrupted by a sequel. However, I seem to be the only TWEWY fan in existence that believes this. Every other TWEWY fan is clamoring for a sequel.
So, my question is, are there any other people out there that hate sequels as much as I do?
