I strongly disagree... some times the only way forward is to go backwards.
Certain graphics work with certain genre of games. If we take a look back through
AG history we find most memorable adventures where all mostly Pre-rendered 2D graphics. (with a few exception of course). I mean 3D is definitely more practical for most genre's and maybe in a few years when they can develop as much detail as they do with hand drawn/painted art through polygons... then we can talk.
But at the moment most of 3D graphic based AG's just don't live up to what they really could be. And if going by the amount of new adventures being developed with 2D rendered backgrounds...then there must be an increase in sales somewhere.
Anyway at the end of the day I believe in both 3D and 2D... if there both done well and compliment the story then we are all winners!
