The original is just so fucking borin and bland as fuck. It's like, imagine the writers having their first meeting about what their big Star Wars RPG should be about. "Evil sith lord tries to overtake the galaxy; stop him; also, there's a twist" was probably the first idea and they just fucking went with it. The second one wins by default by not telling a story we've seen, in the very same universe, already.

It actually is. There's not a single moment in that game that feels like filler. Also I like the serious tone the first one had more than the more playful tone of the second (but could be that that only irks me because of how Bethesda chose to 'expand' upon all the "funny" shit in 2)

Literally the whole point of Star Wars is that the story is bland and cliche. It tells a story you've seen a hundred times before, which makes you feel comfortable. It's a classic hero's journey.

3 was the best imo

>>343827143
Battlefront 2 had a bunch of really half-baked ideas and gamemodes, but most of all people are still mad that they took a huge steaming shit on the PC community and the modding scene in particular.

They flat-out refused to patch the game for MONTHS after release, despite game-breaking bugs and significant obstructions for modders that they agreed to remove post-launch. It got to the point where some of the biggest Battlefront communities on PC shut down their gameservers and dropped the gamebefore the first patch even went live.

If you played this on a console or picked it up late on PC, you probably never heard of that, but the PC community got royally ass-fucked.

Your opinions are your own and if you happen to like garbage then that's your business, SH1 plays like crap, has an unintelligible and uninteresting story, looks like utter trash in both graphics and level design, it's just a worse game and there's nothing that will change that
>>
>>343825838
With the exception of environments being the standard Mario setup of grassy, cavey, snowy, and burny, you're right. 2 took the formula too far with tedious backtracking and bosses. 3 was better, and I know that's an unpopular opinion, but I'm just not a fan of the controls.

Yeah, I think while ds3 was the actual better game overall, I didn't have nearly as much fun playing it as I did ds2. I think that's mostly because fashion souls was dogshit and the color palate of ds2 was so much more vibrant.

Even if the bosses and level design were shit in ds2, more builds were viable and the gameplay was still really good.

Most series tend to follow one of two paths.

>First game is an experiment. The team uses it as a testing ground for various ideas, and use what they learn during its development to make the next game in the series even better.
Examples include the Sonic series, Pokemon, Mario Bros, Street Fighter, and Touhou.

>First game is a great experience, but in order to draw in more potential customers the team dumbs down various concepts or mechanics, resulting in a weaker sequel.
Examples include Fable, Mass Effect, and Dragon Age.
