    I respect Damiani's opinion, but for me I do not see the urgent need for MP4 to have any "crazy" or "weird" new gimmicks, I'd rather have it play well first and foremost, that's numero uno. "Crazy" and "weird" are a distant third in terms of my concern, IMO. More like a pleasant bonus, and less a requirement. Games can have "crazy" and "weird" but if their gameplay sucks, all those shit go down the drain.

      ​@@olibigbird Not arguing that, what you said is largely true. My issue was that people (well, mostly game "journalists") are glossing over gameplay in lieu of exciting new stuff in terms of what they see as a "need" for MP4. More like, I'd rather see "crazy" or "weird" new stuff as wants rather than needs. I need MP4 to play well. Is it fluid? Story progression solid? Game not tedious? Are players having fun? Gameplay concerns.
      You know what can kill a new franchise entry? New players who got attracted to the "crazy weird gimmick" that sold the game for them, and then find out an hour later into playing that the gameplay is a Fyre Festival level disaster.

    Completely disagree on Metroid Prime 4, this game has had a super troubled development and financially it is likely that canning it was the best decision for Nintendo, but they kept the development going to fulfill their promise to the fans, not because they want to make this game the next Zelda type breakout. If this is just more Metroid Prime I don't see this game now selling like Kirby, but I also don't think that is what Nintendo expects. But who knows, maybe there really is a revamp but given the troubled development of this game I highly doubt it. If it's just more Prime I'll be super happy, because it's not like we get those kind of intricate interconnected worlds type of games that often (Not even Souls are like that anymore), but I'm completely open to them trying to change the formula, I just feel it's unfair to say that this better be a complete revolution to be worthwhile.

    it's clear to me that the Prime 1 remaster is one of the absolute best looking Switch games ever, if not the best.
    Prime 4 looking as good as it does on Switch hardware you can bet there will be limited level design or else large environments are going to need to take a fidelity hit in comparison to what we saw in the trailer.
    The shot at the end of the trailer showed a 3D environment against a 2D backdrop, it didn't show an open 3D world to explore.
    And i think that more linear exploration is good, but not when it's extremely narrow --- i think players do want more open environments and choices even if a game isn't technically "open world".

    just because i feel like calling Tomba! just a 2.5D platformer is big oversimplification allow me to try to give people a better ideia of the game
    Tomba! is more like a 2.5D Adventure game, mostly played from a sidescroller perspective (sometimes top down). so much so that you aren't really traversing levels more like traversing a connected world where you can backtrack at anytime (don't know if i would call it a metroidvania though). What's cool about the game is that mostly a game that thrives in player discovery and interactions (when played blind that is). You start the game in a fairly simple manner with a vague objective, but as soon as you start to explore your bound to encounter something that will trigger a "quest" from which there are many! Some "quests" lead to new areas, let you interact with new characters, maybe a new weapon that may aid in traversal, etc.
    to me the best memories of playing this game, is randomely interacting / finding someting that looks suspicious, unlocking a nw "quest" and trying to solve it as i explore the rest of Tomba!'s world. And honestly, how weird the world is only adds to it's charms

    For Shadow of the Erdtree world design is insanely good. Exploration is so fun. Mini dungeons are much better. But bosses are still dog sh*t like in the main game. They are not difficult. They are boring as hell and tedious. Most of the time you are fighting with camera. I despise dragons in this game. Entire fight is chasing after it in boss area and fighting with camera. And they just put lots of it into this game.

    I ended up trying Super Metroid later and found it a MUCH stronger game than the 3D games.
    The problem is that Metroid is no longer the best "Metroidvania" in my eyes.
    Hollow Knight is.
