Yeah, it's just wild to me, that we went full-force ahead with the whole 3D thing, when you lock out so many potential players with it.
With 2D games, you can chuck someone a controller and even if they're just haphazardly pressing buttons, they can still participate in the game. With 3D, no chance.
And even those who do have practice still struggle with it. Think of a difficult 3D game and I bet it's a valid joke that the true end boss is the camera.
