3D Platformers Will Never Make a Come Back

In this video I talk about 3D Platformers, specifically in the triple A market. I dont think they're ever gonna make a return. The last big Triple A attempt at a 3D Platformer was Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time and it didn't exactly sell amazingly well soooo...

I think the problem with 3D platformers is that nowadays considereing how expensive games are getting people only seems to enjoy masive arpgs or sandbox games to justify the value, platformers are very simple in comparison. Not to mention that the target demographic of those games (kids usualy) are more onto mobile games, heck they even find piggy from roblox more iconic than Crash.

[@il-ma.le.]

They could go for a 3D metroidvania approach, that grants you platforming, a world to explore, and those elements for crafting(don't know if it helps for the rpg feel) could be dropped here and there. Point is this genre doesn't even seem conceivable, the only ones that made it are Control and that SW game I keep forgetting how it's called.

[@freddykun897]

In my opinion mobile game should deserve high quality 3D platformer, because I think it will be increase their reputation on that platform and had unique experience for them...

I mean most 3d platformers don't have triple a prices. They're usually priced quite reasonabley, often half or a third of the price of a regular game, even then there's gamepass or ps premium that might help people start off. Also I get that people like to tie an age to platformers because the target audience is often kids but realistically anyone can play and have fun with them.

[@logiclunacy606]

​@@il-ma.le.There are games like that. There's a hidden gem called a knights quest that has a real charm to it, nice world to explore with powers that alllw you to explore further, almost zelda like but the combat is kinda frustrating if you can get past that. There's also Bluefire which is pretty decent 3d metroidvania platformer game.

[@HarvestHollows]

I feel likes there’s something to be said about Toys For Bob also becoming indie developers after cutting ties with Activision. They’re no longer AAA devs, but they have AAA quality if that counts for something

Not to the big AAA Scene (despiste the fact that 2021 GOTY was ALL Platformers as nominees and One Of them won) but the Indie Scene IS going strong with some Of the BEST 3D Platformers out there Só they don't need to come back, because they're already so back

[@toongrowner1]

exactly

[@obitosenju3768]

Eh. They are not that many upcoming interesting ones on the horizon

[@_shadiness]

So true. We don't need Triple A platformers if we keep getting bangers like Celeste and A Hat In Time to keep the genre alive That being said, platforming, especially in the 3D aspect, has quietly went down as more of a side-genre than something devs have been looking to make use of for motives other than a nod at a nostalgic era.

[@luisoncpp]

You forgot to mention Psychonauts 2, that game is amazing. Maybe the Sponge Bob's ones are also worth mentioning, or Sackboy A Big Adventure, or Kirby and the Forgotten Land Imho 3D Platformers already made the come back, a genre doesn't need to saturate the AAA market in order to be considered active. ...also, even when in the 5th and 6th generations of consoles many of the biggest games were 3D plataformers, they wouldn't be AAA by today's standards. The first Crash Bandicoot had a budget of 1.7 million(for development, the marketing and manufacturing budget probably was higher), that would be an indie by today's standards. The first Psychonauts had a budget of 11.5 millions, much higher but still far below what would be a AAA today. So, in order to evaluate if there was a comeback or not, we should at least consider AA games and not just AAA; and I have the feeling that recently indie 3D platformers are reaching the quality of good 3D platformers from 5th or 6th gen.

[@drypenny3561]

Klonoa was in the opening footage but that's not a 3D platformer, it's just a 2D platformer with you being able to throw into the foreground and background.

[@drypenny3561]

Also Yooka' Laylee did get a sequel and It was a huge improvement with better controls, camera, and graphics and was way more easy to beat and know where to go but it's actually a 2D platformer so it doesn't count for the topic of this video.

I feel like AAA companies now adays just want to make fps games cause they think it's better, even though I don't like fps games that much

[@luisoncpp]

They don't do that many FPSs anymore, I just searched for the biggest games launched in 2023 and I got a list of 24 games: RE4, Dead Space, Like a Dragon: Ishin, Diablo IV, Starfield, Street Fighter 6, FF16, Super Mario Wonder, Dead Island 2, Dredge, Fire Emblem: Engage, Forspoken, Horizon Call of the Mountain, Lies of P, Atomic Heart, Company of Heroes 3, Darkest Dungeon 2, Hogwarts Legacy, Wo Long, Meet Your Maker, Minecraft Legends, Persona 3 Portable, Pikmin 4. From those, only 2 are FPSs(Atomic Heart and Meet Your Maker), but you can increase the count to 4 if you include Starfield and Dead Island 2 (those are RPGs, but you can shoot in first person as well), or you can incrase the count to 6 by including third person shooters (like RE4 and Dead Space). Anyway, most of the big games are not FPSs.

I wouldn't say 3d platformers are dead, they just dont have the same push as they did during the 5th and 6th gen of consoles Out of all the bigger series the only ones id say get consistent releases are mario, sonic, kirby and maybe crash. The reason I said maybe for crash is because toys for bob went indie and are currently making a parnetship with microsoft so it might be awhile before we see a new crash game again and Spyro is pretty much a crash character atp as its been 6 years since reignited and all they've done with spyro is put him in the newer crash games. Ratchet and LBP are pretty much the only playstation platformers thats are still around as ND and sucker punch have no intentions of bringing back Jak or Sly at all. Rayman is pretty much dead since there hasnt been a new (non mobile) game in over a decade and hes only ever made appearances in other things like that neflix show and mario + rabbids. Phil Spencer says he hears banjo fams but i dont believe him on that one lmao. Also, both Pac-Man World and Pyschonaughts have made combacks recently with repac and psychonaughts 2. Even Spongebob games have made a comeback Plus we've got plenty of indie games too that come out in between all the bigger budget games.

[@mattb6522]

Good video! The gaming landscape has changed, so genres that once saturated the market are taking a backseat to other genres. I mean, back in the '90s, beat-em-ups were all the rage, but quietly slowed down as the decade came to a close. However, we did get a number of indie beat-em-ups over the the past couple decades, so it doesn't mean the genre is gone completely. I think the same rings true for 3D platformers. Honestly, A Hat in Time, Crash N. Sane Trilogy, Spyro Reignited, Pac-Man World Re-Pac, Crash 4, and Super Mario Odyssey have scratched my 3D platformer itch over the past several years. There are also plenty of other indie and remasters of traditional 3D platformers, so the genre isn't going anywhere.

Just because they cannot pump out a new game every year does not mean they are dead, in fact taking time to make the games and not making too many will keep Spyro alive longer. They don't need to make a new game every year like insomniac did with the original trilogy.

John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

It always make me sad to see that game genres that once were staple of gaming are nowadays relegated by big publishers as somethin not profitable and thing of the past. Btw what is a name of the game on 6:46 mark?

[@motivatedstorm3816]

God of War remakes could give the genre a bit more attention if they are ever made Not exactly the biggest platforming game but it does still have it throughout the game

Astro's Playroom was a fantastic free bundle-in, the best PlayStation has ever had.

I've never felt any RaC past the first game was a primarily a 3D platformer just with a unique twist. As of GC they've been more action-adventure focused games with consistent emphasis on combat however RA was at least attempting to balance this with fine enough results. The next game being 2029 (or later considering layoffs likely pushing it back internally) doesn't surprise me, also who's to say Sony is forcing IG to do Marvel and not IG wanting to do more themselves like Wolverine and X-Men?

[@DarkturtleX]

The reason why they dont make a comeback is cause nowadays we mostly get retro throwbacks instead of an evolution of the old PS2 story driven platformers like Ratchet and Clank, Sly Cooper or Jak and Daxter which were basically the last platformers(in my opinion) which really tried to revolutionize the genre with new content.
