| Slimebeast said: Yeah, those are good points. But I prefer the sandbox trade-off in variety. I adore sandbox.And I'd actually say that sandbox in essence is gorgeous level design - while linear is inferior level design. But most people disagree. |
It's different strokes for different folks. I enjoy the gorgeous, varied level designs of linear JRPGs as opposed to more bland, but bigger, setpieces from Oblivion/Fallout (especially Fallout 3).
Mass Effect was a good combo of the 2 - Great set design, and the level design was pretty wide-open on the Main Quest worlds. Side-quest worlds were sandbox, obviously.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
