      I've played A Hat in Time and all of it's DLC's and that was a year ago. I've also played Yooka Laylee, Spark the Electric Jester 2 and 3, and psychonauts 2.

      You're telling me from the 6th generation to now there are no other 3D platformers being made? Aside from Mario and Sonic?

      Don't get this demake garbage with obnoxious bloom and no shading. they broke the animations, movement and everything. it destroys the experience.

      emulate the superior Wii or PS1 version.
      and PS2 emulator for klonoa 2.

      BUT ALSO KLONOA IS A 2.5D PLATFORMER!

              It has very good art direction on the environments.
              Phantasy Reverie took the exact same wii assets but just removed all the shadows and broke all the textures, the normal mapping, reflections, particles and all the cool effects.

        That's because no one wants to make a genre that is fricking repetitively boring. Do you realize why it all ended at the end of the PS2 generation? because nearly every company in the AAA industry did everything that could be done. There's nothing to do with this anymore, that's why all you will continue to find is shitty indie knock offs. People sing the praises of games like A Hat in Time but even that is still just retreading old ground.

    To be honest I'm surprised collectathon platformers aren't huge right now. In the age of TikTok zoomers need a quick high from seeing numbers move up in a bright colorful cartoon world. Wasting time in an open world sandbox learning weird building mechanics is the last thing I think would be popular right now.

      You're gating yourself pretty hard then. The industry moved beyond this decadent genre for a reason, the only company who still entertains it is Nintendo. So if you have nothing to play then it's your own fault. Just play what was released in the late 90s and early 2000s and then move onto another genre.

    >no classic Tomb Raider indie "inspired" games.

    3D platformers already peaked ages ago with all the classic Tomb Raider games. Collectathons are LITERAL mobile tier gameplay loops, and never ever use 3D as anything more than a glorified flat plane to do arbitrary jumping tricks, with zero complex level design that actually takes into account your full moveset to be used in developed and challenging ways.

    Aslong as this remains the case. 3D platformers will be largely redundant, uninspired, and shallow. But you can continue eating up the churned out slop that will come out. That's rhe point of the videogames industry after all. To consume without thought, and to seek what is familiar and recognizable, over what is unique, challenging, not handholdy, and involved.
