While playing any of the Ratchet and Clank games, did anyone thought that some of the gameplay elements felt like familiar territory to you? Did you respond to a moment in R&C that felt like it was copying another game?
I do understand that games borrow other gameplay elements from other game franchises, which is fine as long as it takes a fun different approach that doesn't seem like a total rip-off of something else. In other words, not making the gameplay extremely obvious from another game franchise.
Take example, Ratchet and Clank Future: A Crack in Time. Some fans or for those who have played the game have said that some of it's gameplay seemed quite familiar in some areas. Such as…
- "Clank's Time Pad Puzzle is like the game Braid"
- "The Space Missions takes a montage of the Star Fox franchise"
- "Viewing the Moons all around is a rip-off of Super Mario Galaxy"
(Even though seeing the moons all around appeared in other R&C games before Mario Galaxy)
So do you think of these kinds of things while playing a Ratchet and Clank game? If so, feel free to share it with the rest of us.
