Why It's always the third game in a series who fucks up everything ? Why life is simply unfair when it comes to the 3rd game ?
because life is simply unfair

>Hoenn
Is this bait? 3rd gen is top tier
>implying oblivion was bad
>>344760942
Heroes 3 you fag. Older Might & Magic as well. Wizardry too. Ultima as well.
ME and new Fallout are from shitty developers, that's why. Don't know about Dead Space and few others, but when there is EA, it is shit.
There's T&T and Snake Eater. So it's not always the case.
>>344761319
Also Morrowind.
>>344761385
Those are the exceptions to the rule I guess
Hey, while we are on the subject of ZTD, let's talk about Danga-

how does it feel to have shit taste OP?

>It happened with Crysis 3
Are you trying to say that piece of shit crysis 2 was good?
>3rd gen Monster Hunter is bad meme
Oh boy I sure do love broken hitboxes! I just can't decide what I like more: using the control stick to attack, or clawing my left hand for the camera! :)
>>344760942
BN3 and SF3 were good, man.

I'd like to add Modern Warfare 3 and Assassins Creed Revelations (which is the 3rd AC game) to this list.

>>344761660

When 3 does things well you end up with games like MGSV or GTA V
>>344760942
>It happened with Silent Hill 3
Eat shit.
>>344761804
>Metal Slug 3
>Dynasty Warriors 3
>Serious Sam 3
>Battlefield 2142
>Jedi Knight
>Warcraft 3
Morrrowind is the best in the series
Halo 3 is, while not as good as 1 and 2, still pretty good
>>344761463
IT is not an exception if the inpromptu list of cases where you are wrong is comparable in size to yours.
>>344761385
PE3 too:^)
>>344762202
>Warcraft 3
You dun fucked up, it was technically a shit sequel, because it played entirely different, and it spawned blizzard of today.
>>344760942
Because the third game is make our break
The first game lets the developers lay the ground work for what they want to do but it usually has its flaws. However with the experience from the first game under their belt the developers can learn from their mistakes and take what made the original good and improve greatly upon it.
When the third game fails it's because it fails hard. The second game was the best in the series and the third has to surpass it in every way, and to avoid making the third game a carbon copy of the second they usually add in some dumb gimmick to differentiate it which makes it even worse
>>344760942
Yes, because as we all know, SMT:Nocturne ruined the series forever.
>>344762076
>Implying GTA V is bad.
I don't see Dark souls 3.
Golden Sun 3 was shit too
And Diablo 3.
Speak for yourselves ZEtards
>>344761385
>T&T is better than AA
whatever you say man
>>344760942
Fallout 3 never happened OP
>>344762063
Actually, the third Assasin's Creed would be Brotherhood, not Revelations
>>344762408
>it was a shit sequel because it played differently
ah
Dude
You're gonna pick Ally right? There is no point in picking Betray.
Come on, pick Ally
>>344762806
And of course if you're looking at it like that, then Modern Warfare 3 is actually CoD8 or something like that.
Far Cry 3 was pretty good, Then 4 kinda fucked up and we got the shitfest that is primal.
>>344762740
Never said it was better, just that it wasn't bad.
Paper Mario too.
>>344760942
>Hoenn
How so? Mechanically speaking the games only get more refined each gen, and the tropical islands setting is an interesting locale.
>>344760942
>MH3
>Silent Hill 3
Good to know that haven't played either of these
>>344762503
Or 2, or 1.
>>344760942

>Silent Hill 3

>>344760942
Crysis 2 already fucked shit up, though
also

>Half-Life 3 still hasn't come out
>>344762886
Yeah, well, if you're looking at it as the Ezio miniseries it IS the third. And I do agree in that Revelations is when the series started going downhill (and then the abomination that is ACIII doesn't help), so it checks out
(Part 1)
Consider, for the moment, that we don't know what happened to Junpei during the Safe Ending of 999. VLR and ZTD essentially confirm that multiple timelines do exist, and that Young Akane from 999 wasn't just exploring "possibilities", but in fact, actual realities.
ZTD also confirms that in order for time travel / morphogenetic field to affect the past, there only needs to be one timeline that leads back to it. Any timeline that doesn't is simply an alternate path. This is proven because Delta exists even in timelines where he wasn't born -- he only needs to be born in one path and sent back to 1908
Put these together and we can conclude that the Safe Ending actually happened, and there is a timeline in which Akane lives in 2018 but Junpei doesn't save her in 2027, yet Junpei survives the Nonary Game -- namely, the Safe Ending.
Consider a Junpei who has witnessed the deaths of Kubota, Clover, Snake, and Ace, and wakes up in the middle of the desert after being left there by Akane. Junpei, being more than a little distraught, begins to lose his grip on reality. As we saw in ZTD, which follows 999's true ending, only witnessing one of those deaths caused him to slip into an incredible depression and lack of regard for humanity, so it's likely that following 999's Safe Ending, he begins to harbor a huge grudge against humanity.
It's not possible for VLR to exist in 999's Safe Ending. Clover, one of the players of that Nonary Game, is dead. Without Clover and Alice (who wouldn't be who she is without Clover), it wouldn't be possible to crack Dio's code, and stop the bombs -- meaning that in the Safe Ending path, there can be no Future Sigma to return to 2028. As such, it would be highly unlikely that there would be any timelines that draw from the Safe Ending where Sigma and Diana have Phi and Delta.

Quake 3 had some nice maps but it's still way slower tha quake 1. Also quake 3 didn't even have multiplayer
>>344763986
>Also quake 3 didn't even have multiplayer
>>344764349
Fuck i meant single player
>>344760942
coincidentally, the fourth is usually the best.
I was too afraid to finish this game, is the ending as batshit as everyone was saying?
>>344763975
(Part 2)
Since it's highly likely that many of the primary goals of the Decision Game would fail in such a post-Safe Ending timeline, no Decision Game is held. Radical-6 does not get released into the public, but what fate befalls humanity?
Consider, for the moment, a Junpei who is disillusioned by humanity and the people he put his trust into. Junpei joins a shady underground detective agency to find Akane, only this time, not to get married to her, but to get revenge for all of the horror she caused in the Safe Ending. In the early 2030s, instead of finding Akane herself, he gains access to the antimatter reactor network around the world. Broken by the Safe Ending, betrayed by Akane, and disgusted in humanity through his job, he decides to end the world by nuclear fire.
Consider, for the moment, that Junpei is a (rather powerful) SHIFTer, and that just before he dies in the post-Safe End world, he gets an idea. Why stop here? There are worlds that followed from the Second Nonary Game where the game ended well. Why should those worlds be happy? Why should those timelines prosper when his was full of nothing but sorrow and misery? And so Junpei SHIFTs to another timeline, into his body in the early 2030s, and once again infiltrates the antimatter reactor network, destroying the world.
One by one, Junpei SHIFTs to every timeline that followed from the Second Nonary Game, and destroys them. One by one, all variations of Earth are cleansed by fire.
Suddenly, Junpei finds himself in the Apocalypse Ending. It's 203X, and there already is death everywhere. Over 75% of the population is gone, and it's impossible to travel anywhere or find anyone. All of the antimatter reactors have already been destroyed years ago, and there's no way for him to exact his revenge in this timeline. And so he leaves.
>>344765006
(Part 3)
Consider, for a moment, that this Junpei arrives in a post - ZTD True End, where every one of the cast is determined to stop the very goal he has been carrying out for countless timelines. Do you know just how many timelines he's been to? Millions. Billions, maybe. Every choice has branches and he is determined to destroy every one of them. It's become his sole mission. His mind is ageless, having gone through the motions over and over again until it's all he knows. But here, everyone is determined to stop him.
And the only way to stop him is to kill Junpei.
