well I just wrote down what Al Lowe (creator of leisure suit larry) said
not sure if you want to believe him or not.

I started bouncing the idea off people. Inevitably, their response was, \"Larry 5? What happened to Larry 4?!\"
That was exactly what I wanted. Suddenly I was completely freed from the restraints of the Larry 3 ending. I could have the new game begin anywhere. The idea was wacky, silly, dumb in a perfect \"Larry-esque\" way. And, it solved the \"mind share\" problem--how to grab people's attention and make them think about the next Larry game and had they missed something?
And that, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, is the whole truth about what happened to Larry 4!
