I guess I'll have to do a separate thread about direct sequels then. |
Well, a sequel isn't necessarily the next release in the franchise, it is when the next release takes place after the previous one (Super Mario Galaxy 2) - so, in video games, Final Fantasy 7 is not the sequel to Final Fantasy 6, it is merely the next game in the Final Fantasy series. A prequel is a something that takes place before the previous release (Ace Attorney Investigations 2). A direct sequel is one that continues a story where it left off (Xenosaga Episode 2).
Or in movie terms:
Sequel: Die Hard 2
Direct Sequel: The Two Towers
Prequel: Phantom Menace
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
