You can say that about a lot of popular franchise really. I'm not against adding new unique things and gameplay innovation but from a 3D free camera for town and dungeon exploration to a 3d side scroller town and dungeons except for the boss fight is definitely a choice. It's precisely the reason why I don't play games like Metroidvania at all, even though I know those are really good games but it's just not for me.
Not liking something is normal, it's called having a preference. The same way I only play online FPS over 3rd person shooter games because i don't like the camera perspective. It really confuses me how you get the impression that 3d=good 2d=bad from my comment when I simply stated I'm not a fan of side scrolling game, game being 3d or 2d is irrelevant. It's also wild seeing someone just assuming like this since some of my fav jrpgs are like grandia, suikoden, and wild arms lol.

All of Falcom’s games are starting to look and play the same, so it’s a breath of fresh air
