I'm not trying to say less is more.ZippyDSMlee said:So less is more?John Funk said:Yes, because Super Mario Bros. 3 is clearly the most non-linear game ever made.ZippyDSMlee said:There is no "diversity" in the linearity of free form things........ I suppose you have given up the fight on "qaulity" and go with whatever the flow is as most reviewers seem to do with today's 8's are yesterdays 6s and all.....
My "preferences" are more options,more content, more quality which seems to fly like sht hitting the preverbal fan in a 180 direction and less content,options lead to more money for the questionably "diverse" game industry.
I suppose art is in the eye of the beholder and all but it dose not make twilight(or "insert pathetic media here") any better and I am not getting any younger, all I need is a cane with a golf ball on it and I will be all set!
Your opinion is not law. Your preference does not indicate overall objective quality. A linear game is simply trying to do something with a different approach than a more free-form one. It is trying to offer a much more controlled experience.
Just because you personally do not like this, does not mean your word is law and the be-all-end-all of game quality.
No matter how you shake it you can not get more from less.
I'm trying to say that more is not always better.
