Yeah, it does seem billing games / films whatever as the final one - knowing it won't be the final one does sometimes write them into a corner. There was no reason for them to bill Toy Story 3 as the last one - its one of the best films and would have got the critical acclaim and attention anyway and TS4 would have received less pushback. Also if you are going to continue making those Saw films bring back the main antagonist
that was killed off in the first few - I'm sure people would prefer a convoluted explanation of how he was bought back then whatever they did with the franchise after.
I wouldn't mind a retcon or soft reboot on the Gotham games as they have 'killed off'
Batman and some of the villians. Arkham Knight left
'Batmans death' ambiguous and he's just going to be bought back in a future Rocksteady game anyway. Miles Morale was cool as a sort of a filler, disposable adventure before Spiderman returns in 2 (like the WB Montréal games are less important than the Rocksteady games); and Miles was a great character. I don't think many people would have been desperate to play as the Gotham Knights - too main leads and possibly too many threads will make this a less focused / immersive experience. I would guess most people would rather another prequal or just bring Batman back with a few sections as Catwoman.
