Games that give a reason why the protagonist loses all their power/abilities in the sequel
Inspired by Dalaamclouds list.
You leveled up, got stronger, got abilities and skills... only for the sequel to take (most of) that away from you. But at least it gives a reason. Any reason.
You're welcome to suggest more games, no reason they can give is too ridiculous for this list :)
