Yeah, the Yoshi games have never been critical darlings. Even "Island" was disliked in its day. |
I was a baby when the original Yoshi's Island came out, so I never experienced the never hype for it, but I can understand how impressive it was on an artistic and technical level. The thing is, when I went back and played it, it just didn't feel that fun. I didn't like the art direction (yes, not even the art direction of the original) and found the gameplay to be dull and slow-moving. I got my hopes up for this game when I saw a lot of the same neat mechanics that people seemed to liked in the trailers, but it looks like it wasn't enough. Though, I have to wonder if people just got turned off by the art style (which I think is actually quite appropriate for the game) and the initial. Regardless, it seems like I'll be skipping this one. On to Kirby: Triple Deluxe!
