It's a complete package, friend. The music complements the story and gives the gameplay more meaning than just "OMG GIANT MONKE HEAD ATTACKS!". It's a shame this game didn't sell very well and a proper sequel was never commissioned. You could do a lot with online multiplayer especially.

>Star Fox Assault remake with 15 new levels/maps and online
Praying the Switch 2 gonna have it
Would be so cash.

>> No.10427026

64 has a very narrow design philosophy where you tend only to be confronted with 1-5 targets at once in most levels, and they generally have set patterns. it does sound boring when i put it that way but enemies are at least active enough that you have to keep moving even after you have the game memorized, and there tend to be a lot of physical obstacles as well. it just feels good to play. in short, everything is orchestrated well and keeps you engaged. on top of that, the game is translated and voice acted/directed very well even though certain lines sound awkward with repetition or if you hear them out of context. everything about the music and sound is distinctive and perfectly accents the situation at hand

assault sets out to be flashy and it suffers as a result. the combat just makes you feel like you're a hot knife cutting through butter. enemies are lazy, so it doesn't matter that you have the most unsatisfyingly slow laser ever. the arwing levels are mostly in open space (i.e. few obstacles or terrain) with large-scale nonsense happening in the background to orchestral music so the player can pretend they're in furry star wars. the music otherwise often feels more just like smash bros. sound effects ripped straight from 64 or remixes of star fox-esque music occasionally pop up to remind you that you're in a star fox game because i certainly don't half the time, especially not with the lifeless voice acting even from the few returning cast members

worst of all, the story is sonic extended universe-tier and far too prominent, it makes the later mega man x games seem tasteful. they even preserved in translation that thing that makes me cringe where like, you know in sonic games how almost everyone is just mononymous except for "amy rose" and it sticks out like a sore thumb? why do they suddenly all call andrew "oikonny?"

There's nothing distasteful about how those handle story in the first place. The first few games barely had any story, so aside from the few times story is outright forced on the player (X5, X7) or when there's too much focus on Zero (X4, X5), those plots do their job at just being a reason to fight new bosses and visit unique locales, with some additional stuff sometimes.
You make good points about Assault, however.

They've closely worked on the game's direction and dogfights and grunted with the assets for it.
Game ended up as dry cow shit and Nintendo hasn't face any rush to salvage the game, instead have them fund for a new IP and more Bayonetta.

Plus there's talks that they hired the Panzer Dragoon remake people to work on yet ANOTHER Star Fox remake.
I'm hoping it flops so they can get Studio 2/S to do a remaster or remake of Assault down the line or just a new (and actually new) Star Fox again.

Agreed. Just as Mario evolved into Mario 64, or Legend of Zelda titles, or the odd transition of Metorid into the Prime series, the natural progression of Starfox was All Range Mode, free-flying.

Of course, just like the 2D mario/LoZ titles, and Metroid Dread, there would still be room for the classic on-rails shooter.
