Quoted from dgoett:He was my favorite designer up to and including metallica. But ever since, it seems like he copies areas of previous games and jumbles them all together for something "new". Like the kiss/IJ area, etc. Nothing really fresh and new like IMLOTB. His last 3 designs have been stale IMHO and easily skipped purchases. I really hope he gets back on track because his physics are always really good.
I disagree. AS is a pretty unique layout, with the back-door skill shot. Guardians has a few elements of MET and IM on the left side, but it feels very different than either one of them. And while you could argue that the Orb lock shot is sort of a Danesi rip-off, it’s very well done. And I like that he brought physical ball locks back to us Pro buyers. The AS toy box lock (with the ball launcher) is my favorite lock shot right now.
