Honestly for a lot of it we didn't even care which it was. It was just another kind of game.
Like if you moved from Across to LBA1 or Tomb Raider you weren't mind blown by the graphics most of the time, it was usually the different play style that did it.
For most of us we still played NEW 2D games (like those on playstation or the endless ones on PC) even as the gamejournos, and certain subset of people, were completely obsessed with 3D and denigrating anything 2D just cause.
You could be wowed by the graphics at the time (I remember this being true Ocarina of Time) but a lot of it was the opposite. When you went from PEAK 2D pixel art to the absolute dregs of 3D it absolutely sucked like moving from Simon the Sorcerer 2 to Simon the Sorcerer 3D.
