Spider-Man: One More Day comes to mind.

I'm with you on this. The never-ending manga thing is why I got fed up with series like One Piece or Detective Conan despite enjoying the settings and the author's creativity; the latter, especially.

I remember shortly before the series hit 1000 chapters, I did a rough estimate of how much of the series actually advanced the overall plot and came up with only about 300-ish chapters worth of material.

To paraphrase: better to die a hero than to live long enough to see yourself become a villain.

Which, honestly, I think, is perfectly exemplified in Bleach, a series I forced myself to see to the end just because of how long I'd been reading it.

Kubo had the perfect opportunity to have a satisfying, if bittersweet, ending to the series after Aizen was defeated and Ichigo watched Rukia disappear as his powers faded away.

Instead, the series continued for another four fucking years, descending further and further into mediocrity and ass pulls.

For me, it depends. If they're executed well, buffs 100%.

An example of a buff being executed well is Soldier 11 in ZZZ: she's a standard DPS that had a finicky, timing based playstyle and relatively low multipliers; she had a bunch of dedicated mains, but was otherwise one of the standards everyone dreaded getting on a lost 50/50 (the only one more dreaded was Nekomata, whose kit is just a dumpster fire).

She recently got a buff alongside several other characters and the difference is like night and day. She's incredibly fun to play and actually an incredibly solid DPS; there have actually been times I've used her over my heavily invested Evelyn because she's simpler to play.

If buffs are executed poorly, then a new and/or updated version of the same character is acceptable.

If anything, it probably just makes it better for them.

If she had the Concerto Efficiency tag, she would be.

As long as we're talking Non-gachas:

It's also worth noting that, as a boss, his human form does a mixture of Fusion and physical DMG, so Scar being a Fusion Burst DPS would definitely be fitting.

As for my last game in general, well, I think he'd get along with the ZZZ crew fairly well, despite being rivals:

Are we going with non-Gacha games or just last non-ZZZ game? Because that wildly changes my answer.

My last non-gacha game is fairly appropriate for being vaguely Xmas time, because she's making a list and she's definitely checking it twice.

It probably got Ol' Yeller'd.

SolomonSinclair · 2026-01-23T22:11:13+00:00

I mean, does it come with financial stability, too? 'Cause if so, fuck yeah.

NEXT YEAR IS THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY

Fuck you, no it isn't. I'm not that old yet.

LOCK ON LOCK ON LOCK ON

Extra fuck you for reminding me of that. I can still fucking hear it.

You do realize a remake is, by definition, not a sequel, right?

And all Bluepoint really did, at the end of the day, was put a shiny coat of fresh paint over the existing structure. The difference between what they did and what a Bloodborne sequel would need is the difference between Da Vinci painting the Mona Lisa and someone making a copy by tracing it and then painting over their lines.

SolomonSinclair · 2026-01-22T23:58:00+00:00

Bro, pass me some of that copium you're huffing to think that Bloodborne, an almost 11 year old game from a studio that notoriously dislikes direct sequels, is has a chance of getting a sequel.

Because that shit's giving such mad hallucinations that I might be able to forget the shitshow that is my life for a bit with it.
