Okay, artstyle sure don't but what does? Gameplay mechanics? I can know those by lookin g at a review. And I'm not talking about srtstily. I'm talkingm about content. And we are talking about Galaxy 2, that despite being not much more than an expansion of Glaxy 1, gets a GOTY.

Platformers get 80% of their innovation from level design alone which Galaxy 2 is superior to then its predecessor, also new game mechanics like the Yoshi, drill and cloud adds even more design possibilities for levels, level design is the most importent element to all platformers. What they did in Galaxy 2 is add a few new mechanics to the gravity based concept to open up level design even more it's also the only non sandbox game to have a large variety of gameplay with platforming, puzzle solving, racing etc...

 

You wouldn't know that because you haven't played it, simply watching a video won't tell you anything here, by your logic every sequel is an expansion even the DKCR game you bought, 240 stars is much more then 90% of sequels out there on average give you and right now you're basically arguing blind as you have little to no idea what's in the game which is why people are calling you out here.
