10 Underappreciated Video Games That Deserve A Sequel

With the Souls series at its highest point of popularity, allow me to introduce you to its total opposite: Neverdead, the game where it takes real concerted effort to die.

While our protagonist Bryce may be immortal, he's not invincible and, seemingly as part of this immortality curse, his limbs appear to be attached with sticky tape as they'll fly off the moment an enemy brushes lightly up against you. Lose a leg and Bryce will start hopping around moving slightly slower, lose both legs and all you can do is crawl. Lose an arm and you're down to only using one of your dual guns at a time and so on and so forth. Getting Bryce's limbs to re-attach is as easy as dodge rolling over them, making them magnetically zip up and back onto your torso.

It may sound like a liability to be so loosely attached to your own limbs that they constantly drop off but Bryce can use this ability to traverse tight areas by tearing his head of and masterfully rolling it around through vents and the like. And his immortality allows him to use himself as a human torch by lighting himself on fire.

It’s this unique approach to the gameplay and tying every element of that gameplay into Bryce’s condition of immortality that makes Neverdead so unique, and a sequel that expands even further on his abilities and his past would, at the very least, be interesting.
