I just thought it’d be hilarious if a dev named their game, like, “Warhound 2” or something when there was never an original “Warhound” lol (and like, do so seriously, not just as a parody or joke, at least primarily so).
DOTA 2. The original DOTA is a custom map for Warcraft 3 (Defense of the Ancients).
TIL what DOTA stands for
Not a game but there’s an Spanish movie called “Vivancos 3: if you like it we’ll do the first two”. It was a flop so…
Vivancos 3
The imdb rating of 3.9 for a movie that is not porn is quite incredible, I’m almost tempted to watch it.
Ouch!
Connect Four.
lol, touché…
I mean, team fortress two was the first game in the series. Team fortress “1” having been a mod for a different game.
Team Fortress Classic was the first stand alone game in the series, sold as its own thing if we’re not gonna count the original Quake mod.
Same with DOTA
Does BattleBit Remastered count? There was never a released game called BattleBit, and it was named that as a joke by the devs, because of how many times they had to redo things.
Oh yeah, that’s true!!! I never played it but saw gameplay and do know of it!
For a long time, I thought Street Fighter 2 was one such game.
There is no “Street Fighter” home console release. It was arcade only, and wasn’t even popular outside of Japan.
Breath of Death VII does not have any prequels.
Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen was subtitled part 5, as Ogre Battle was intended to be a 7 part series, but only 4 games got released.@Simon_Shitewood I remember Breath of Death VII. Not a bad game.
There is this Game called Apidya
According to the Creators they named the Game Apidya 2 to provide some exitement.
Very good Game with Music by Chris Huelsbeck.
Super Turbo Turkey Puncher 3. There is no 1 or 2. However, it only exists as a virtual arcade cabinet in DOOM 3.
Edit: Apparently you can also find it as a secret in DOOM (2016).
Interesting. I’ve never heard of it.
Goonies 2 on NES, the original Goonies was Famicom only and never made its way to the NES console.
Dune 2 came out shortly after a completely unrelated Dune game by a different studio, with the 2 added just so people could distinguish them.
Episode 63 of Welcome to Nightvale is called There Is No Part 1: Part 2.
It’s a podcast, but it does fit your requirement more precisely than perhaps any videogame.There never was a Leisure Suit Larry 4. That number got skipped.
Al Lowe had originally planned to make part 4 as a massive multiplayer online game, but there were too many technical complications. Additionally, Al had writers block. So he skipped to part 5 saying it additionally afforded him a new start to get out from his writers block. He was supposed to get back to it one day, but never did.
I own all of the others. Part 3 (Passionate Patti In Pursuit Of The Pulsating Pectorals) is the best and the original Part 1 is runner up. All I ever wanted was a Part 4 though.
It’s Al’s 80th birthday in 13 days (July 24, 1946). Maybe he’ll get us something
Threes! Pretty sure there is no Ones! or Twos! preceding it…
*Sigh* You guys… and ironically, I have played that game but forgot about it lol.
There was an old Flash game called Pandemic 2. Iirc, there wasn’t a Pandemic 1, which struck me as odd.
