Today, which do you prefer: 2D or 3D scrolling video games?

[Saurus]

Is for curiosity. Today, which do you prefer: 2D or 3D game mechanics? Why ? Reason your answer.

3D is like 2D, but better.? Why?

On the contrary, are there video game genres that were born for 2D mechanics or gameplay? What could these video games be?

I honestly like both. I think both bring different things to the table game play wise and each offers different elements to games that people can work with and do.

Only 2D game I enjoyed was Pilsner Strip.

platforming games seem better suited to side scrollers as it removes the need to guess depth in most cases. Point and click adventure games probably work better in 2d.

I can't remember last 2d game I played. I had an N64 so I remember before when it was all we had. Now the balance has shifted
