Explaining how 3D platformers died and how they’ve made a return by complaining about the video game industry as a whole. Video link
I’m stupid and don’t know how to use Lemmy. Here’s the video.
Indie game studios still make them. So does Nintendo. They didn’t die. It’s just AAA game studios turned their budget to making blockbuster level games with shit tonnes of micro transactions in order to make more money because unfortunately they make more money and are generally more popular.
half the video is basically just “holy shit you people need to play more video games they’re not dead indie games are peak”
It seems you wanted to post a link but posted an image instead.
I’d barely say they died. Doom Eternal is full of platforming, something a lot of reviewers winged about, and there are big undies like little kitty big city that fit the bill nicely, as well as the remake of SpongeBob Battle for bikini bottom
Psychonauts 2 came out in 2022 and it’s a 3D platformer to the core.
