What are some game series you would like to see revived? And if possible, which entry should the new game follow from? (piefed.social)

For example, for me, I would *love* a new Populous game based from what was done in Populous 3. That, and a new SimCity based on SimCity 4!

I just want more 2D Castlevania games. It's been forever.

Well, there was Bloodstained which is castlevania with everything but the name. Same lead gamedev, too.

Bloodstained is fun. I'm also enjoying Deaths Gambit

Definitely this. It seems MVs with a leveling system either aren't popular, or are too hard to balance. Plus there's the giant inventory of weapons and gear that would probably be too time-consuming to create for most game devs.
