Has Nintendo slipped in quality? Their practices aren't the great, but when it comes down to it, they have some of the most consistently high quality games.
They also have some of the longest tenured pros of game design and programming in the industry in its entirety… something sadly far more rare outside of Nintendo… but especially Japan.
Shigeru Miyamoto, for example, has been designing at Nintendo for literally 4+ decades at this point.
Turns out you can master a craft after doing it for a majority of your adult life.
But - in the US at least - the executives at publicly traded game companies would rather shut down literal smash hit dev studios like the guys who made Hi Fi Rush than cultivate a few master class devs of their own over a few decades…
I thought BotW was pretty mediocre. They basically took the "bigger and better" strategy to one of their iconic games and made it "bigger and worse."
It's an unpopular opinion apparently, but that's my take. Hopefully it's notb the start of a trend of Nintendo following other AAA studio trends.
BotW was my favorite gaming experience of all time. Hours and hours of joy for me.
Eh, it was the worst of the Zelda series for me. To each their own I guess.
You already explained you don’t like it. But your anecdote and my anecdote cancel out the anecdotes.
Ok? Convinced yourself yet lol
Convinced myself of what?
Mario wonder sucked
