How it started: Cool Beat 'em Up where you transform into mythological creatures.Honestly I think the biggest issue with Altered Beast is that it's one of those Sega properties with incredibly lopsided regional appeal. It's significantly more popular in the west than it is in Japan, since it was only a pack-in game internationally.
Odds are that they'd more likely opt for a Sega character that either has more appeal globally, Japan included, or that they'd at least go for one that's more popular in Japan if they had to go for a game with lopsided reception.
How it continued: A really bad Hack 'n Slash with an edgy experimented upon amnesiac who has extremely gory transformations and that's supposed to be cool.
