A new game in that style though. Modern graphics and no random encounters.
Yeah, imma be real Chief. The idea of going back to bland, linear routes with zero room for actual exploration doesn’t sound appealing in the slightest.

Scarlet/Violet may be buggy as hell, but that’s a result of the game being rushed out to meet deadlines. There’s still an actual world to explore, I can make my old adventure. That just wasn’t possible in Sword and Shield, which was railroaded to frustrating degrees. I simply don’t see the value in regressing the series.

But please, illuminate me on how this might be a good idea. I’m legitimately curious.

Happy 30th Anniversary to Nintendo's most under-appreciated series, Star Fox!

Been playing Star Fox games since I was a kid. It hurts to see it in its current state, but I believe one day it'll rise back into the spotlight again.

And thank you to those who participated in the Star Fox survey from a while back. I'll be posting the results later to day in r/StarFox, so keep an eye out!

Aw yes, The Last Airbender.

Otherwise known as kino incarnate
If I didn't know better I'd think you were sarcastically talking about the M. Night movie which had to have "Avatar" removed so people wouldn't think it's a blue people movie.

It's just what I think is more fun and what I'm gonna wish for. Not everybody needs to think about the "health or growth of the series" or how it appeals to the most people on the planet when talking about what they want to see. Some people do that. But that's not me.

Cobsider this: It would be the type of game Snake enjoys and everything must cater to her

I can't believe Snake's ability is Illuminate (It increases wild encounter rates by 100%)

To be fair, the linearity was not the issue with either of those games
Especially not when one considers the DLC.

In my case, though, my biggest issue with SwSh was the story, by far. It was actually intriguing up until Chairman Rose literally decided to risk starting the apocalypse on a whim.

****'s gonna get wacky in approximately 5000 eons. We gotta do something about it.

Alright, I'm perfectly willing to help you. But do you mind waiting for me to finish up this tournament real quick?

...
**** it, doomsday time.
