Honestly if the campaign was a remake of the SNES Star Foxes with actual graphics instead the super fx chip struggling to render 3D that would actually be a more compelling sell. I guess that's what they were doing with Star Fox 64, a reimagining of Star Fox 1 that ran at a decent framerate, but if they absolutely had to retread then I would've preferred something a bit more unexplored, i.e. throw in the SF2 campaign for shits.
I think the legs on Fox and Falco has that uncanny quality to them along with the design make them more inhuman and less you want to associate as heroes.
The Star Fox team has always been interesting in that regard, because they're mercenaries that just happen to take jobs from the Lylat System's defense force. Would be interesting to see more morally ambiguous jobs in future titles.
They are using the original designs (N64, DS and Smash), just modified. Once more, Nintendo, there is a reason your characters were changed visually past the first game, many did not age well and trying to rewrite things to be more retro ends up looking like shit.
Some on /v/ claimed Cero has restrictions on depicting amputees, which killed off the metal boots/metal legs from this title. Looking it up, I don't fully believe it, but it is a possibility I guess.
>he thinks this will repel the furfags
People often think this, but I don't think it's true. Imamura was the one who told Rare to keep Krystal and make her sexier, and he at least said Miyamoto would approve. Imamura was also around as artist and supervisor for Star Fox since the beginning and is really the series "dad" along with Miyamoto. I would even say Imamura was the real heart and soul of Star Fox. I just think Miyamoto has no good ideas to evolve the series' gameplay, and he doesn't care enough about story to think of a sequel plot, so we ended up with Zero. Imamura unfortunately has left Nintendo entirely as of 2021. This new remake looks like something that was probably outsourced to another company, so I think everyone involved is really struggling to risk doing anything new just keep redoing SF64 to see if they can capture lightning in a bottle again so they have a template for future games.
That was one of the endings, yeah. She changed her name to Kursed and when they met again I think Fox didn't recognize her (or the other way around).
Star Fox Command was gay and no one should play it.
The sad thing is Peppy looks the best of the four.
The only reason for this franchise to exist is to go from one themed planet to another and do linear rail shooter levels. Everything else is stupid and gay and a misuse of the IP. I'd be pissed if the new one WASN'T a reboot.
Left: Those eyes show that this fox has dreams and aspirations
Agreed.
At least give us a new level pack of that. That's what I'm most pissed about, same 30 year old levels with no changes.
