That's a great point. Take Arkham City for example. I think that Arkham Asylum worked perfectly as a Metroidvania. The open world, at least for me, detracted from the experience.

In general it's disappointing that so man "AAA" titles are military shooters or open-world action games. There are so many more genres and mechanics out there.

Wow, I thought I was the only one that preferred Asylum over City. xD That was one of the main reasons too.

I think overall the industry could use some more streamlined titles without the extra fluff. Of course it's nice to sit down with a massive open world game such as Xenoblade Chronicles X or Fallout 4, but it's also nice to play something more traditional like Star Fox Zero. The industry is big enough for so many types of games to thrive, but sometimes it seems like reviewers just don't want them to.

I also prefer asylum to city for the same reason! Much more concise game the got everything pretty much spot on.

 

Part of that I think is being a more old school gamer though.

 

Hopefully a more digital future will allow games like star fox to better sit along side the open world games without being marked down for not having the same quantity of content.
