I'm not going to stop playing 3D games completely but I couldn't figure out why I started enjoying 2D games again so much in the last few years
I've been replaying secret of mana on switch this month and I finally figured out why
Simply it's that you can take in more information in less time, and since I value my time more as I get older it makes perfect sense
just a very simple example with this photo, if this game was 3D I could only see 1 part of this house at a time, if i wanted to see the side or back I would have to take time to walk around to them and explore each side individually
but since it's 2D I can see the front, both sides, and back all at once, more information in less time
so yea i finally figured out why I'm enjoying 2D games again
