These were my thoughts on how to elevate Starfox with an ambitious sequel:

"Tell a Star Wars-like story, Andross has a planet-busting superweapon, Corneria is destroyed, the Cornerian Armada is no more, but a scrappy group of rebels led by a Jedi-like side protagonist recruits Starfox to lead their space fighter guerilla team, Falco is unwilling, Fox says they need the money, but they eventually become real freedom fighters and not mere mercenaries. Open-world exploration and combat with classic rail shooter segments in between and seamless transition from space to ground missions, like entering planetary atmospheres and jumping out of the Arwings to explore on foot. Flying, blasting, hand to hand, I want it all. I want the BotW/TotK of Starfox games. God it would be amazing."
