| Topic | Nintendo officially endorses "Search Action" as a genre name |

But I don't know why you think your argument is so bulletproof. Let's take your experiment and ask 1 million non-gamers what an "exploration action" game might entail. What % would mention exploring a world to find keys to unlock doors? Definitely non-zero right? I would say 10% at least. Now what % would say that about "Metroidvania"? Absolutely zero. Here's another experiment. Show 10 minutes of gameplay from 100 different games to a non-gamer. Ask them to pick out the exploration action games. How well would they do? Now do the same with "Metroidvania". They'll do better??? I'm serious when I say I understand your argument. I just don't get why you think its so convincing. NeatoAnAccount posted... I knew what a Metroidvania was before I played my first Metroid.How, if you have to experience it first? --- _foolmo_ he says listen to my story this maybe are last chance ... Copied to Clipboard! |
