Forced Gyro controls went wrong with Star Fox Zero

Ratchet & Clank acknowledges that it's a remake of a classic notice how Star Fox Zero is advertised as "returning in a new adventure" and manages to surpass it in every way, shape, and form while Star Fox 64 is still better than Zero by miles
>>
Nintendo may be losing their touch. I'm keeping my hype suppressed for Zelda this time. They can't help but make awful design decisions for some of their games, it seems. Like, most aspects of Zelda might be good, but then there will be something really gay about it that ruins the whole thing.

Star Fox Zero was originally going to be rushed out the door with less than a year of development time. In hindsight, the delay was not worth it. The game was a big flop either way and Nintendo should have cut their losses on it.

In a better world Nintendo would have just given Star Fox back to Namco and Team Aces for a proper sequel to Star Fox Assault. Really though, I would rather have had Star Fox stay dead than have Star Fox Zero. A bad game is worse than no game at all.
>>
>>340880576
StarFox Zero was made with arrogance and laziness. To think a barebones StarFox game would sell or be worth $60 is a huge load of shit from Nintendo.

Both games are rehash garbage. It just happens that ratchet and Clank is mildly fun to play.
>>
>>340885737
I wonder what it'd look like with even less time put into it. Too bad, Zero could've been good if the people in charge of it actually cared.

Oh and

>"proper sequel to Assault"
fuck off
>>
>>340884052
It's going to happen.

I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo starts to cut into interest from Bethesda products, since they have a hardcore RPG (Xenoblade) and a hardcore adventure game (Zelda)
>>
>>340885737
Honestly the only way to get SF back to life is by making on-foot sections actually good and enjoyable to everyone.
Namco had a good vision of the franchise with Assault, but it was clear they needed more time and freedom.
>>
>>340886206
Nigga, are you serious?

Wow, everyone who bitches about Zero really did not play it.

Zero, in case you didn't know, features the ability to change to a land mode to an Arwing mode whenever you like. This allows you to take what made the on foot sections on Assault interesting without compromising what makes Star Fox fun in the first place. Flying into space ships and then destroying them from the inside was fucking fantastic.

Zero was great, I hope Nintendo figures out a way to sell the idea to the public next time. An online mode would do wonders, I think.
>>
>>340886206
All of the ideas Assault brought to the series were good ones. It just needed more polish and more single player content.

Star Fox Zero's only new ideas for the series were the awful gyrowing and robot sections, and shitty meme controls. If there is ever a new Star Fox game I think it's safe to say no-one will want those back (or the stupid chicken walker, which should have died with Star Fox 2).

The on foot sections were cool because we got to control Fox directly. The chicken walker misses that point. Also, the design of the walker was awkward gay and stupid, a stark contrast to the Arwing itself. Chickens are not cool, which is why the chicken walkers in Star Wars were the butt of physical humor gags.

Maybe the public's tastes changed. If 64 were released today it will get the same low scores than Zero, or even worse.

Because Fox is cool and we liked seeing that he can kick ass even when he's not in his ship. It also made Fox feel like a real video game protagonist rather than an abstract who only appears as a little icon in the corner of the screen.
>>
>>340880576
Not only Zero was a objectively bad game, the franchise was already lost and forgotten unlike R&C which is still relevant and has a fanbase.

And that the Wii U sold like shit.

I'd take what happened with Zero over a sequel to Assault any day. Assault stripped out all the arcadey qualities I loved in 64, and put together with the horribly awkward story it ended up painfully average and generally unappealing.

Without normies the Wii would have been as big of a flop as the Wii U.

Sounds more like Wolf.

Thing about Fox is no he's not that cool.
His Arwing is cooler, his ace pilot is cooler, his dad is cooler, his rival is cooler but Fox himself is meh.
>>
>>340888648
It's Nintendo's fault that Star Fox Is not more popular. They waited 10 ducking years to release a new game, and 12 years since the last full console game (Assault). No brand can survive that kind of neglect.
>>
>>340889386
>No brand can survive that kind of neglect.
Street Fighter managed to come back after a 10 year hiatus.

Star Fox Zero is ugly, there's no online multiplayer, and the story part of the game is shit. There's no excuse for how lazy this game feels.
>>
>>340889386
Except Metroid. And DKC. And Kid Icarus too, I suppose.
>>
>>340889476
Yeah, because Capcom actually made a good game. Zero is just as mediocre as the game that put the Star Fox franchise into a coma (Command), and in some ways is arguably even worse.
>>
>>340889737
The outlier here is that Star Fox Zero is shit.
>>
>>340888798
>I'd take what happened with Zero over a sequel to Assault any day

So you're fine with a critical failure that potentially ruins a series rather than a commercially successful game that at least tried to push the series forward?

I can't tell if this is selfishness, stupidity, being contrarian, or all three. Doesn't matter though, because if Zero doesn't kill off Star Fox for good, Nintendo now knows people like you shouldn't be listened to.
>>
Zero is far too stuck in the past, and it feels like 64 except on the Wii U in way too many ways.

Star Fox Assault may have had some crap in it, but come on, Assault was still closer to what a modern, proper sequel to 64 should look like. If it adhered to the same structure as 64, it would have been a genuinely great game.
>>
>>340880576
who cares? They're both wretched furfag games
>>
>>340890172
he's still butthurt about that one character
>>
>>340890172
>tried to push the series forward
Assault tried to turn Star Fox into a single-play linear story told by shooting. Star Fox is about replays and making choices.

So yes, I'd rather a critical failure that at least acknowledged what actually makes the series tick and attempted to tweak that formula than a commercial success that abandons everything besides the set dressing and basic genre.
>>
>>340890041
hello S&P fan
>>
>>340890172
He's probably still in denial that Zero is a failure.
>>
>>340890661
Zero isn't worth replaying and the choices are even more meaningless than the ones in Command. At least Command had radically different endings, even if they were all hilariously stupid.
>>
>>340890661
>>340888798
you know Assault wasn't supposed to be single player-oriented in the first place.

game was suppose to be heavily multiplayer-oriented with single player being the last thing in mind

>>340893491
She's actually quite lovable. Unfortunately she triggered an unprecedented amount of autism from certain fans who couldn't stand seeing a taco in their sausage party.
>>
>>340883323

Fans wanted a complete game without forced motion controls and with multiplayer.

Given they do have 2player but its frightening that Nintendo thought two people manning cockpit and lasers could be "fun".
>>
>>340895662
It was a handheld game and wasn't a $60 release. Plus, they made some notable improvements over the original like better graphics and multiplayer.

Star Fox Zero was trying so hard to trigger nostalgia for Star Fox 64 that it lost sight of why Star Fox 64 was even good. Star Fox 64 had tight, intuitive controls, and at the time felt very ambitious. Star Fox Zero is notorious for its deliberate lack of ambition for anything to differentiate itself from 64, other than to force an intuitive control scheme down our throats.

I find it amusing that Nintendo's defense of Star Fox Zero is that it's meant to be a "cinematic experience," and then the internet defense force is like "no no no, it's a serious, hardcore arcade game! If you don't like it, you're a normy pleb!"

And what's even more sorry is that for all the hype Miyamoto put into the story, it's pretty much exactly the same as Star Fox 64. And that's AFTER the delay. I can only imagine how much more stripped down it would have been if they hadn't missed their Christmas 2015 deadline.

Ratchet and Clank was a rehash so it was popular.
Starfox Zero used brand new gameplay ideas so it wasn't.
Also, R&C is a platformer shooter which is double normie and SFZ is a railshooter which is full niche.

Guys, please, stop. You're starting to make me feel bad about purchasing SFZ for no real reason. It's a fun game. I haven't played R&C, but I'm sure that's fun too.

One things for sure, 15 years from now it will be the must have game for wii u collectors. It uses the system's gimmick properly and because of that is pretty unique and has a fresh feeling among rail shooters too. Also since it sold like shit so it might become hard to find too.

Interesting. Despite having no detail their outfits look snazzy.

I guess they have their own team thing now but I kinda prefer when they all had their own outfits in assault. Made them stand out from each other better.

Wolf's got the spikes, Andrew looks fancy, Pigma wearing an ugly shirt underneath is perfect for him and Leon's is tight and form fitting

If 64 were released today, it'd get an 81.

In fact, that's exactly what happened.

http://www.metacritic.com/game/3ds/star-fox-64-3d
>>
>>340924062
Star Fox Zero was billed as a "cinematic experience." Miyamoto hyped it up as a more in-depth version of Star Fox 64's story and it was exactly the same. If the developer is going to put that much value on the game's narrative when trying to sell it, I will judge it against other games that have done story well. Even Assault, which so many of you whine about having a "dumb Star Trek story" was better at storytelling than this game.

The fanbase is a mess, but trust me it's mostly from them, and it's twice as funny when you look at what's been made more recently and the kind of people they are.

>Fox, Falco, and Wolf on a recent standpoint get more messed up material than the girls do, this ranges from vore, inflation, hyper whatever, to scat
>The people that like this get immensely pissed if you say anything wrong about any of this, easily if you mention the guys being paired with their proper GFs...except Wolf because he has no GF, in other words they're spergs who're into messed up shit

>Krystal, Miyu, Fay, and Katt get a ton of regular to some messed up material, but on a more tasteful level, this is just your standard lewds, to preggo, tentacle, yuri, etc. For some reason it's rare that Lucy, Amanda, and even Fara get anythiing

There's a bigger market for 3rd person shooter/platformers than an on-rails arcade shooter. R&C has more depth to it's gameplay with rpg leveling elements and game mode variety. While Starfox just has a steep learning curve and a high skill ceiling.

Because it is better than Zero, you cant seriously think Zero is better than 64 or any of the other games for that matter, because at the end of the gay all it is, is just another shitty tech demo game that was directed by the same hack that ruined Paper Mario.

>once he finds the necessary gimmick

Are you a retard? Do you know how simple it would be to make a steering gyro control gimmick for F Zero? To compliment that, how fucking easy it would be to translate the game pad into a first person cockpit mode like Star Fox.

The reason F Zero isn't being made is because nobody bought the series. It, like StarFox is a niche series. F Zero on gamecube sold way fucking less than a million copies. I'm surprised they even made Star Fox with how shit every game has sold other than 64.

Ratchet & Clank PS4 was a good game for both veterans (through all the nostalgia fanservice and all the top tier treatment of the original) and newcomers (through all the optional handholding and exposition).

Star Fox feels like an incomplete game with no audience, meme controls (though I liked them) and shows up when the console is dying. Doesn't help that the game is less fun to play than Star Fox on Super Nintendo.
>>
>>340941098
Andross and Star Wolf are fine, it's the fact Nintendo doesn't want to FULLY expand them like they did with Ridley from Metroid and Ganondorf from Zelda.

Now on that whole "Andross vs Pepper" shit.

Shears could be foreshadowing this just based on how corrupt he was, one could say that despite Peppers sense of justice, his men are either with it or against it.

Not to mention that this shit was actually in Command, as stupid as it was you had that shit being explained. Though this is ironic because it was Krystal that was telling Fox that despite the conflict there was between Andross and Pepper prior to the Lylat War, she believed Andross wasnt that completely terrible, yet it was he that attacked her at the beginning.

Regardless, you had that shit there anyway. Even Metroid had it going right after Super.

Price point and platform
R&C was on the more popular platform and cost 40 bucks
regardless how the game actually was, people expected less of it and were generally happy with what they got
Also the game is even more streamlined than the previous games, so its easy to pick up and play

Zero was expensive for a "remake" that every one and their mom with a N64 emulator that knew how short the game can be to beat depending of your path, regardless how much replay ability it holds as most players nowadays only beat their games once unless they are trophywhores
People were just not up to spend 60 bucks and in most cases, buy a wiiu for it

Nintendo should have priced it 40 or 45 bucks and have a no gyro aim mode for people who cant into it

>>340880576
>What went right with Ratchet & Clank?
Haven't played it, but that price point certainly helps.
>What went wrong with Star Fox Zero?
Making 60% of the game's minimal content uninteresting boss battle or side missions, rendering all but 3 of the game's branching paths entirely unfulfilling. I would have been very satisfied paying $70 for 15 quality levels instead of the six we got.

>>340948337

>>
>>340880576
R&C was a solid game in the series with appeal to both series veterans and newcomers.

SF:Z suffers from an Identity crisis. It doesn't know what kind of game it wants to be beyond 'A game like Star Fox 64'. In my opinion the biggest problem is that rail shooters simply cannot compete at $60, especially not with the amount of content SF:Z has. Either they had to take the series elsewhere or choose a lower price point. Unfortunately they chose to take a risk with an uninteresting walker mode and a gimmick minigame.

They should have stuck to the core Star Fox gameplay and went all out with the content so there was lots of replayability. That core gameplay is the main thing the series has going for it and despite some claims in this thread otherwise, I don't think a better story would have made the game much better.
>>
Content + Quality + Value

In terms of content both are very short titles.
In terms of quality, R&C 2016 a much better game than Star Fox.
In terms of value, you're getting a better game for $40 (R&C) than you are with Star Fox Zero ($60).

It's really that simple. Had R&C been a full priced title its rating would've suffered.

They do tend to mention/consider it when a game is priced below the norm.

Not reviewers, but the user score would suffer.

And reviewers do dock games for being light on content and demanding full price. Just because they get a free review copy doesn't mean it's not a factor.

Compared to the original, other then nostalgic rose tinted glasses, how is the new game not better in every way?

There's been a number of games where the reviewers (some not official, like random people on Youtube) who drop a point or two because they felt like they were cheated out of sixty bucks because the game was 2-3 hours long at best.

A vivid example is Angry Joe going ballistic at the Godzilla game on PS4 costing $60 for an hours worth of repetitive, godawful content.

Star Fox Zero is my pick. 8/10 solid fun.

Honestly, story is the only place where the original would win out over the new entry without question. The focus on Drek in the original, the sidestory with Qwark was more developed, etc...

In terms of levels it's arguable, since we did lose cool places like Oltanis Orbital Base, Oltanis itself, Qwark's Umbris HQ, the logging planet, etc...
