SAO is about as close as I've seen a game get to a spiritual sequel.
It gets very wordy at times and your progress gets reset so much that grinding is worthless. But the writing is good and it being a virtual world that's being hacked by the girls gives them way more powers than the SH crew had.
It's also not finished, but there's a lot there already. Just wish there were more scenes for when you cheat and win an unwinnable battle, guy just left a placeholder against the fairy.
