Little Big Adventure, a Zelda clone of sorts, and very French for good and bad. Technically it's not dead as it got a remake... But it's souless and filled with corporate slop that every modern game has, such as blackening (the protagonist, formerly white), no hetero romances (an annoying little sister is made up as to make the MC's love interest less important) and annoying female characters (see previous point).
Oddworld, which while it got a remake of the second game, it's even more corporate slop than LBA and the soul of the franchise is pretty much dead. Funny how it used to be an IP criticizing corporate abuse, heh.
Duke Nukem is another series I wish it got revived, but it will never happen until/if the Second Videogame crash.
