Maybe, some people need to stop taking the word of developers. Who seriously believed that the game would "kill" Mario or be of a quality better than Mario? Also you are the exception rather than the rule. Look at every other poster who is dissapointed. |
I did not think the game would SUCCEED in being "better" than Mario. Maybe nothing ever has. But games in the past, like Sonic 1 and 2, DKC 1 and 2, Banjo-Kazooie, Ratchet and Clank, etc., got pretty close, and become defining games of their eras in their own right. With Disney seemingly making this a primary project for the Mickey character, and recruiting Spector and his new studio, and it being in development for 1-2 years already, I would think those are the kinds of aspirations they have. This looks more like Rabbids or MySims or anything else that publishers seem to think is "a nice little project for Wii."
And btw, if you don't take the word of developers, what do you have left? I don't mean "you" rhetorically here; all this article has is ugly screenshots and hype from Spector.

"The way to solve this problem lies in how to communicate what kind of games [they CAN play]."
