Games that need sequels

A list of games I've thoroughly enjoyed and think deserve sequels.

List items

  • It would make my entire month if a sequel to Gladius was made. One of my favorites of all time, I think a next-gen sequel with refined mechanics and graphics would just be incredible. And there was plenty of loose ends for those who finished the game. What ever happened to Nephilia and Ludo?

  • Jade Empire was pretty conclusive. There wasn't much room for a sequel. Usually, when a game has a solid ending I don't want a sequel. Jade Empire is an exception. I just loved the story, characters, and lore so much it would be a shame not to continue it. I heard a rumor that a sequel may be in development, but you know how unreliable rumors can be. Still, I've got my fingers crossed.

  • Infinite Undiscovery left a lot of loose ends, and I think they intended to do a sequel. Unfortunately, Infinite Undiscovery did not make enough sales for a sequel to be likely. I would be pretty happy if they decided to go through with it, though.

  • Knights of the Old Republic III was in development, over half-way complete if I remember right, before it got scrapped. I'd love to see a next-gen release of Knights of the Old Republic. And yes, I'm well aware of The Old Republic, but I'm not a fan of monthly fees, jackass players, the extreme amount of time it takes to really get anywhere, the mind-numbing repetition of trivial activities, the constant shattering of the role playing experience, or any of the other BS that goes along with MMO's. I'd like an actual continuation of the franchise, thank you very much.

  • I was never a fan of previous Splinter Cell games (though, admittedly I never gave them much of a chance), but I really liked Conviction. I'd like another Splinter Cell like this one, please. Or, really, it doesn't even have to be a Splinter Cell game. I'd just like it if someone emulated this awesomeness and even improved on it.

I'd say SWTOR is probably better than you're saying, but still has a lot of those elements. Thing is, all the work that went into SWTOR they could maybe graft, at least in part, into maybe a SERIES of stand-alone games, but I highly doubt that could happen. And it also feels a bit more like you're on a track. I never felt like I was doing the wrong thing in KOTOR, and the game wouldn't get too difficult if I tried to do things out of order. In SWTOR there is an order to things, and if you try to defy it, say take your companion quest before you're the right level, and you're a smear.

Jade Empire, I whole-heartedly agree. I just hope they manage to iron out a fun combat setup, since as much as I enjoyed kicking butt, I think it was a bit too easy to spam attacks. Actually, one way I found to make the difficulty more interesting was to NEVER use gems at all. Just upgrade fighting styles. It worked really well.

Gladius is probably one of the best games I played on the old XBox, and at the VERY LEAST deserves a PC release, if not something more. That game was WAY under-exposed, and it had heart.

Thank you for the recommendation and comment.

True, I may not be being entirely fair towards TOR, but I have found little to no fun at MMO's and am loathe to see one of my favorite series scrapped in favor of an MMO. I wouldn't mind TOR, as long as they continue the actual KOTOR series as well, but I find that pretty doubtful at this point. There was so much more to tell in the story, and TOR is placed a couple thousand years after (if I remember correctly), so there is still room for both games.

Yes, Jade Empire is one of my favorites, but the combat system was a little too simple. I've never tried not using gems, that's an interesting idea. I actually did have a pretty hard time of it, though, when I played through as a character who only used magic to fight.

Always a pleasure to meet another Gladius fan. It was very under-exposed. Almost everyone I've seen who has played it loved it, but not too many played it, unfortunately. :/
