what are some media franchises you'd die to see a good game of but has either gone ignored or done dirty? (hexbear.net)

for me its dragon ball z. i've always wanted a good 3d open world dbz action rpg kind of game, but it's just never been done to its full potential. the closest we've gotten in my opinion is dragon ball z kakarot, which has great DBZ fighting game style fighting, and tries to incorporate it with an open world with rpg-light type features, but the world and rpg elements are just so uninspired and poorly done. they don't really blend well with the fighting segments either, it feels like all of the 'open world' is more of just a 3d overworld with minigames

I enjoyed the PS2 era Evil Dead games and I feel they got the vibes right despite being relatively low budget.

I might have to revisit and re-evaluate. Maybe I missed some sequels to the original that I only half remember. I know I replayed it a bit with the bad PC port which definitely further ruined my impression of the past efforts.

Yeah I think the PS1 era one way as a bad RE clone from what ive heard. The PS2 era ones aren't perfect but they do a better job than that. 3rd person behind Ash chopping up the ghouls.

Yeah that's 100% the game I'm remembering. The PS2 ones sound way cooler.

tbh we didn't even know any better back in the day so still pretty much enjoyed the PS1 one. Rented from the video store lol.
