Never liked the look of this game from the first one, can't understand why they spent time on a sequel.

The review process really needs to be reformed so that 60-69 are good and 70-79 are really good. It literally makes no sense that a 70 is just average or good by most standards. 

i know. I just personally don't think it makes a lot of sense. It focuses too much on ratings like they're part of a school system. When you think about it, it makes it harder to make a nuanced review, since 0-60 is pretty much considered an atrocity, 61-69 is considered mediocre, and 70+ only gives 30 possible points for a "good score", and even then it's different tiers of good, great, amazing, masterpiece. 

Knack 2 is super responsive, the platforming is really tight. This is the type of game that is worth going for when it's on sale.

But my lord, the story and Knack himself is just brutally bad. What went wrong here.
