What's a game you loved that got a sequel you came to dislike? (hexbear.net)

For me it's Diablo II. Granted I've played my fair share of D2 since launch, and also recently on a private server with a comrade from hexbear, but I still feel like years later the game didn't grab me as much as D1 did.

Granted I don't hate D2, but for a game that I keep coming back to, D1 takes the prize.

I'm in the same boat, GW1 was my favourite as a kid, I put truly staggering hours into it and ruined my development probably

But GW2 just has zero charm. The Mesmer was my jam in GW1, with its broad build variety from high DPS to caster shutdown, whereas GW2 has them as a clunky melee/ranged hybrid

gigachad-hd by the end of the game's lifespan I was one of the very few Mesmer primary players, and the only one in my guild. But with drip that good I couldn't not play it as primary class

Did you know the severs are, inexplicably, still running?
