Reason: Added a bit more.

Shadow Warrior 2013 a decent enough FPS in its own right. They tried a little too hard to make new Wang inoffensive and succeeded, although at the expense of the MC now being boring. The sequel went for broad appeal and turned into a tedious looter shooter. Shadow Warrior 3 is looking like it's trying way too hard to be "wacky", as the marketing types would say. I plan on avoiding that one, although that's not the only reason I won't be giving 3 the time of day.

Which is to say, mass appeal is a cancer in and of itself. Trying to pander to the lowest common denominator makes sense from a money making stand point. Unfortunately it pretty much always winds up with everything being repetitive as hell at best. Just look up any Ubisoft title post Farcry 3.
