Is 3 the best number of games for any franchise?
Look at Pokemon gold/silver and Blizzards Wrath of the Lichking and Warcraft 3
>DragonBallZ Budokai 3
> Half life 3
>F.E.A.R and it's 3 expansions.
>Sonic 3
>Super mario bro's 3.
>Thief 3
If games go beyond the third installment does the franchise become shit?

Mario World is the 4th, and the best.

RE4 was the best IMO.

What the Fuck?
Gold and Silver is Gen 2.
Third game would be Ruby and Sapphire which objectively the most bland entry.

The third is tactics no ?

Most people usually say 2 is the best in the franchise, which Witcher 3 really being the only exception I know of.

Mainly looking at it as
1: Red/blue
2: Yellow
3: Gold/silver
Even so, the Pokemon hype supposedly died down around then and became 'uncool'' with people some reason.

Why are you hating on ff3? It's a goddamn classic and best in the series. Did you play the ios port or something, or did you bore yourself to tears with vanish doom?
>>
>>329165996
It's just stupid.
All games are different quality in their series.
Sure Saints Row 2 is the best by Devil May Cry 2 is the worst.
Then other games people disagree, I do think Metal Gear Solid 3 is the best MGS, but others say 2 or 1.

FF6 is not FF3, you burgertard. FF3 is pretty bad. Certainly better than 2 and probably better than 1, but it's still very low on the series' ranking.

>>329166263
I guess there's usually a tendency with trilogies in that the first is ambitious but isn't really polished, the second is both ambitious and polished as it improves upon its mistakes from the first and the third is polished but not very ambitious because by that point it's found its comfort zone. But again there are exceptions; it just so happens that a lot of trilogies in all media follow that structure.

Are you sure? Looking at my copy, it says III on the cart. Did they call it 6 in britbongland?
>>
>>329167879
Doesn't change the fact that FF3 is a NES/DS game and FF6 is a SNES/PS/GBA game.

FF4 and 6 were renamed as FF 2 and 3 in the US because they never released the previous ones and they thought that people would get confused.

There's way more examples of the third game in a series either being disappointing or just plain shitting the bed

Mostly because a lot of people started realizing just how bad and lazy the game are.
Maybe they realized the incompetence of Game Freak.
Other than that, people started to realize how much nostalgia-driven the whole franchise really is. Maybe they started questioning their choice of burning 50€ each year into a franchise that has really little to offer in terms of substance, unless you are a kid or an actual competitive player.
Maybe they started to realize just how technically obsolete the games really are for their time. Maybe they started to realize how much more some games from the same genre have to offer compared to Pokémon. Maybe they started to realize how little they try to be innovative. Maybe they started to realize how much milked the franchise really is, comparing it to the always hated AAA overly-milked western releases.
Maybe they aren't kids anymore.

Who knows, anon.
