Can we stop naming things like stuff that already exists?

Unfortunately, no. It's even worse within the video game industry. I'm not just talking Doom 4, er, Doom (2016). The upcoming sequel to 2014's Lords of The Fallen? Well that's called Lords of The Fallen. They didn't even get 2 game in before repeating the exact same name.
My favourite video game franchise in terms of confusing name is the Jedi Knight franchise.

Star Wars: Dark Forces

Star Wars Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2

Star Wars Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast

Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy

This is totally different, Microsoft's A is capitalized!
