Devs think that SKYBOXES are like the end all be all. Even though its 2015 there's still this primitive emphasis on skyboxes being jaw dropping because 30 years ago a side scrollers best friend was the back drop.
So we get these completely static, uninteractive levels that look pretty. But they're boring as fuck.

This isn't a "little fucking thing in vidya" to fawn over. This isn't a fucking "technology" greentext. This is the equivalent of saying
>after bowsers health gets low he starts bouncing faster in desperation
>however his attack radius is lower due to increased impact
It's just a boss mechanic to imply different stages of the fight. Jesus! fuck you dude.

isn't that a pretty standard thing for bosses to do? go nuts but be more open to bigger attacks at low health?

Nope. Different sprites. They just seem the same at quick glance because Samus in Fusion has such a different suit.

The inside of Kaer mohren and the vizima palace in the witcher 3 are almost exactly the same as they were in the first game. Even the little details like herbs over the fireplace, or the paintings were kept.
