I don't think Shovel Knight is overrated, but more as it does not do too much new things. It's more of a, yeh I've seen this before type of game.
I think the appeal grew from it being a 3DS/ Wii U game. Gamer's go bonkers for anything new on those consoles. And there grew the appeal hype.
Compared to Rogue Galaxy, I like SK better. RG was good, but to me I did not like the Death Continue as a family member gameplay. To me it lacked character.
Both good games though.
