What an odd sequel that was. It's been ages since I've seen it.

Almost every good slasher series has that one weird early sequel.
Video games do this sometimes, too (see Castlevania 2 and Zelda 2).

Often of the still good variety. Also goes for Hellraiser 2, Aliens and Terminator 2.
Odd prequels, often misunderstanding the identity of the IP but not bad.

For vidya, Quake 2 and Silent Hill 2 are great examples of a horror sequel doing it.

The real shit usually comes after that.

Silent Hill 3 one of the worst games ever.

Final Fantasy 2, the NES wanted sequels to not “feel the same” so they did those weird departures. Compare it to how Resident Evil and Resident Evil 2 evolved.

Nice sarcasm. Not always immediately after the odd sequel.
SH3 was actually a good return to form. Despite being a good game if SH2 had just been a standalone title, it hadn't done his irreversible damage to the franchise.

SH2 ruined directly every single game after 3, especially after 4.

Especially once Western developers took over, every single entry needed some kind of I-Can't-Believe-It's-Not-Pyramid-Head.
