ITT Sequels inferior to their originals in every possible way

I tried this game out last night out of curiosity because I've always heard how shitty it is compared to Zombies Ate My Neighbors and boy they weren't lying. It felt really floaty and unresponsive and I seemingly couldn't die even when I get attacked by a whole bunch of shit so I said fuck it, I kept playing hoping to knock it off my backlog. Beat World 1 and got to the samurai place. Here's where the bullshit really picks up, so I spawn in and there's a survivor I didn't know was a survivor because he had samurai gear on and just about fucking everybody in this game is out to kill you and a demon runs up and kills him and I get a game over. This all happened within a span of about five seconds so there's no way in hell anybody could've figured it out on their first try. Think I'm a liar? Do it yourself. Literally one kill and it's game over, start the whole game all over again. If that isn't horseshit, I don't know what is. Fuck this game.

It got me thinking though, what other games on /vr/ consoles/handhelds have sequels that are much worse than the original?

According to the Wikipedia page a guy at Lucasarts says that it was made by "a third party" that licensed the franchise. Extremely vague but yeah it leads to that

Fucking gooks. They should leave game design to superior westerners.

It's not a true sequel. They just slapped the characters on a different game. The original developer had no idea it was even being made.
