fear 2 and 3 could never really live up to the original. 2 sort of watered things down, 3 was bizarre plot wise, like a buddy shooter with the primary antagonist?

I almost feel obliged to bring up halo 4 and the rest of the 343 fever dream of games. also tiberian twilight, what kind of shit was that?!

    I thought 2 was ok (albeit not very original after the first one) but then 3 just casually killed off the protagonist of 2 and that was really lame. Was there drama involving different studios making the games, or something? Because it felt like the guys making 3 were saying "LOL, 2 didn't matter."

    yeah I think monolith were taken off the series even during the like... expansions? I'm not sure what you'd refer to the DLC to fear 1 as?

    2 was a serviceable game for sure, it just felt like it was on rails a little bit. I find it hard to articulate exactly why that is from memory but I don't feel like downloading it again 😅.

    3 went completely off the rails, however.
