Against Hollow Knight it feels simpler in every way, less atmosphere, less depth... but somehow I keep coming back to this one more

Ah bon, un mario de plus ? On voit que t'as jamais pris le temps de vraiment le finir.

Moins profond peut-être, mais tellement plus rejouable dans l'instant, j'y retourne encore pour le plaisir pur !

It doesn't hit like Uncharted 2 in terms of spectacle, obviously different eras and goals, but the level design still teaches you something new almost every stage, which a lot of modern platformers forget to do once the mechanics are established early.

Teaching something new every stage is exactly why I never got bored, honestly this alone should push it way higher than 93!

I think it holds up better than people expect, even if I'm probably a little biased since it's one of the first games I really finished start to finish.

Je l'avais fini un été chez des cousins, à tour de rôle sur la même partie, et chacun voulait absolument être celui qui trouverait la sortie secrète.

Ce biais tu le vis pas plutôt comme un vrai indicateur de sa solidité, plus que comme un défaut à corriger ?
LuckyHunter
Compared to modern platformers that reinvent mechanics every level and forget to teach them, this one just quietly does its job better.

Face à Uncharted 2 c'est le jour et la nuit, mais est-ce que ça veut vraiment dire qu'un des deux perd ?
Geraldine_2001
People compare it to Uncharted 2 sometimes which feels almost unfair to both, one is about spectacle and pacing through a story, the other about mastering a moveset across dozens of small puzzles, they're barely playing the same game.

Chez moi aussi la maniabilité passait crème direct, aucun temps d'adaptation nécessaire, quelqu'un d'autre a ressenti ça ?

Number 93 for a game people call perfect? Sure, and my backlog is also totally under control

Je devais avoir huit ans chez mon oncle, et franchement je m'ennuyais déjà à l'époque sur les niveaux d'eau, donc perfection j'y crois moyen.
