Description
They sold you nostalgia. So why do your favorite franchises feel like they’re being made for someone else?
From Gears of War: E-Day and God of War to Saints Row and Space Marine 2, I break down why longtime fans feel left behind and why a familiar name isn’t enough to earn your money.
Let’s talk about iconic characters, the chase for a “modern audience,” and what players actually expect when developers promise a “return to form.” When does evolving a franchise become abandoning its identity?
Which gaming franchise lost you and what would it take to win you back?
