Except for some rare cases like Beyond Good and Evil and Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath, if a game is really good, it will sell well. Mass Effect, Bioshock, and Assassin's Creed are good examples.

I don't see anything wrong with sequels and franchises, I actually quite like them. People become fans of certain series or games, so why not continue to please those fans if they comprise a large player base?

Not continue a formula or series that works just for the sake of not continuing it wouldn't make sense...it would be like if a band released an album that generated a huge fan base for them, then decided they would retire so that another new band could give it a go.

Would you be happy if your favorite band did that?
