I mean you could, literally, never die. Yes, Warrior Within & The Two Throne was more combat focused than it's predecessor, but it still had a great platforming system. And I loved how they combined platforming with fighting. In this latest one, it was run around on walls, fall off, get rescued, run around some more. Stop. Cutscene. Face boss (who you've faced a million times before) one on one in uninspired combat. Beat him. Rinse and repeat.

Warrior Withing & Two Thrones was based to much on fighting and actually lost the PoP-ness that made Sands of Time and the original such cool games.

I'm a huge PoP fan, but the last game, as pretty as it was, was just a huge disappointment to me. Far too easy and far too repetitive. I understand that they were trying to branch out to a new audience, and thus wanted to make it as accessible as possible, but seriously, that game had like a learning straight-line instead of a curve.
