Now that Yooka Laylee is essentially a critical failure... this is good time for Banjo Three!

Many old platformers were way overrated back when they were released, their potential sequels will get tarnished by the critics just like Yooka Laylee

While I agree, yooka laylee it's basically still a 64 platformer with prettier graphics. Gaming has changed. The game should have evolved with it. There are still successful platformers out there. Gameplay in banjo threeie.. Threie... Threey... Has to be modernised but not to the point of losing it's soul. A difficult task.

I think the main takeaway from the reviews is the core gameplay itself isn't what turned critics off, I heard more complaints about the overall game. Such as technical issues, too long, bad camera, boring mini games, some bad level design, etc.

Frankly this isn't uncommon. I've played a lot of games over the years that were fun to a point and just get really boring for various reasons.

I don't buy the narative its too much like an N64 game to be enjoyable. It sounds like Yooka Laylee was overall just poorly designed.
