You know, I heard there's this game called Chrono Cross, which was apparently a sequel to Chrono Trigger. It sold relatively well and was a pretty solid game. So how is RE4 coming into the picture here exactly?
It's exactly the same deal. The styles are different, but they're still sequels.

If you're gonna milk something, at least put effort into its quality, not just the looks.

My bullshit detector's doing 360's right now. You realize that almost every company is going to do this once their characters have attention? SUP NINTENDO. They seem to be doing pretty well though. And because of the fans, their demands become tighter, and especially with FF7's situation; so tight that any effort to make a sequel-type game won't impress them.

Like I said, Chrono has had a sequel. It was just one. It wasn't milking. It didn't please fans half as much as the original because they're so fucking picky about how the next one would be that it's damn near impossible to make one. The same applied to FFX-2.
Except FFX-2 was full of fanservice and attention whoring (literally).

You mean like FFX-2?
Let's say for a minute that this happens. Let's say that because of someone in Hong Kong, they end up making a(nother) sequel to Chrono Trigger. You won't be pleased. You won't be satisfied. There's always going to be
something wrong with a sequel because it can't meet everyone's requirements. And if there were ever a sequel, it would be off Cross, not Trigger.
I'm willing to bet that making another sequel based off an original title, when there's clearly a sequel already, would be milking and/or fanservice. Sequels exist for a reason, and making a sequel (WHEN THERE CLEARLY IS ONE ALREADY) to a game that doesn't need one, simply because fans and people like you want one, would be fanservice.
And this thread is about a project using the Unreal engine in an american location without permission, which isn't a sequel (like you're wanting) but a remake. So what the hell are you talking about?
I also suggest clicking
here and telling us how a sequel would work.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
