Skyrim: revived


series wasn't dead tho

I'd say that recent Medal of Honor game killed the series, not that it was super alive in the first place.

Mass Effect: Andromeda

Awakening killed the series

It killed the heart, but the series is stronger than ever. I stopped playing at Awakening tbh.

For me personally,

Dragon Age: Inquisition: Killed
Mass Effect Andromeda: Killed

Not for the story or social justice stuff people complained about, but rather for the shitty single player MMO style gameplay/quests/open world.

As long as they stick to this style of gameplay the series are both dead to me.

I probably should've clarified that it killed it for me.

I can't judge FFXV because I haven't played it yet but I will agree that FFXIII was shitty in more ways then one...

Final Fantasy was already good before XIII though, so it didn't have to revive it.

Dead Space 3 (killed)
Crysis 3 (killed)
Lost Planet 3 (killed)

Seems like a pattern... a series can only die a hero or live long enough to see itself become a villain.

RE4 did neither, IMO. It reinvigorated the series. It wasn't a dead franchise at that point.

RE5 weakened the series.

RE6 killed the series.

RE7 revived it.

Like I said before in a previous post, I probably should've clarified it killed it for me. Completely. I didn't mean to offend anybody at all :)
