Re: Prince Of Persia Is Back With Brand New Title, Out January 2024 On Switch

So, new installations of iconic cinematic platformer game series looks like average metroidvania without iconic gameplay style. It's more like Immortal Fenyx Rising spin-off than Prince of Persia game.

And one moment. I see some people try to protect game with arguement: "Original games rooted from 2D!" For those people: "Do you remember what kind of game it was?" And especially why PoP gameplay was important for Video Game's History. I don't ask for making game fully like classic iterations, but "The Lost Crown" looks really like lazy product, where market manager asked to combine mechanics from some metroidvanias, and now is selling it under iconic trademark of unused for decade franchise. Even for spin-off with another main character looks lazy.

Alucard in games:
Powerful Dhampir, which in one game referenced as vampiric Arch-Angel Michael, stayed true to his mother believes and protectred them, even after she was crucify on his eyes, making allusion on Jesus death.
Alucard in series:
Teenager which can't stop pronounce f word without any believes and started abandon his humanity after two random japanese betrayed him. Thats why he pissed on their corpses and became alcoholic, until he met bisexual girl, which agreed to date with him.
Dracula in games:
Powerful Dark Lord controlling army of Pagan Gods, mythical creatures, with magical castle built from chaos itself, allusion not only to book prototype and Vlad Thepes but to best anime villians and Mathias Corvinus (Hungarian king which with help of intrigues and political games defeated real Dracula).
Dracula in series:
Tried to look most intelligent creature in universe, but, in truth, suicidal passive looser, which had nothing in common with book or game prototype, and gave his powers and charisma to Carmilla and Isaac, because of Netflix policy of LGBTQ+. But everyone love him because of drama, feeling pity for him and endless sufferings, manipulative dialogues and nature of series.
Question: Should Netflix, Warren Ellis and Adi Shankari adapt, for example, The Legend of Zelda, with the same pattern, where Link will use language, Zelda will be egoistic all-knowing (can't write, rules), and Ganon will be replaced by, for example, Koume and Kotake, which will betray him, because he's a weak man?
