And then there are the sequels you expected would come out but never did.
In the mmorpg category, I wanted (and still crave) a genuine sequel to Everquest, but Everquest Next cratered. And yes, I know there are indie games that may be "spiritual successors," but it won't be Everquest.
In the non-mmorpg category I wanted a sequel to Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. Didn't get one. Man that was a fun game. Rolling up on someone's city with a giant ball of twine looking thing - good times.
What sequel did you want and never got?
EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests

Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
Hellgate: Tokyo
Freespace 3
The world is going to the dogs, which is just how I planned it!
SW:KotR 3!
I would have liked to have seen a "closer to the original" EQ2. the EQ2 that released just never grabbed me.
And finally, Rocky 25!

Personally the only modern MMORPG trend that annoys me is the idea that MMOs need to be designed in a way to attract people who don't actually like MMOs. Which to me makes about as much sense as someone trying to figure out a way to get vegetarians to eat at their steakhouse.- FARGIN_WAR

Pretty sure it would have been much more succesful with my involvement
Besides that:
Anarchy Online 2
And my all time favourite disappointment:
Everquest Next. Screw them.

'But there are many. You can play them entirely solo, and even offline. Also, you are wrong by default.'
Ikcin in response to yours sincerely debating whether or not single-player offline MMOs exist...
'This does not apply just to ED but SC or any other game. What they will get is Rebirth/X4, likely prettier but equally underwhelming and pointless.
It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.
It is just huge resource waste....'
