Games you love with sequels you hate.

[Leynos]

Dragon's Dogma 2 I just did not like but enjoyed Arisen quite a bit. 

Contra Rogue Corps is absolute dogshit.

I did not like Metroid Prime 2. Bad game? no. Just didn't gel with me.

I could not get into ToTK. Nothing against the game just could not get into it. 

Ys IX just being tower defense. I loath tower defense.

Doom Eternal. I love the DMC series and genre. I like Doom 2016 a lot. I don't like merging the two. 

I love Dakrsiders 1-2 but III just sucks. I don't like Souls and I like bad Souls clones even less.

Golden Axe Beastrider SUUUUUUUUUCKS.

I love Wind Waker. One of my fave Zelda's but Phantom Hourglass is shit. 

I love the first Shenmue. Meh on Shenmue II but III stinks. It's ugly. Has that shitty stamina mechanic and does not advance the story.
