It really depends on the game. The issue with DNF is that by the time it came out, the whole game felt very dated. This is definitely an issue for 3D games. Another post from the same author talks about Reset [0], which in 2012 looked absolutely gorgeous, but if it came out today it would look like a normal game. For a puzzle game, I would say that there's less risk for that, although I do recall other games copying the 4D mechanic since.
