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

I don't think a game that has flaws like Yooka Laylee is reflective of how people feel about this style of game as a whole.

I'm also under the illusion developers can learn what people enjoyed and did not.

I see what you mean. The Kickstarter was very successful so maybe the reception doesn't entirely reflect how people feel about the game. We'll see how things turn out soon enough.

But as far as I'm aware Playtonic is the only developer that attempted to revive the 90s platromer and there aren't that many developers that can capitalize on nostalgia like they can. So I don't see any developer out there that can even learn from Yooka Laylee's flaws let alone try to do same thing. 

Well Playtonic was really attempting to create another Banjo game. I think all developers can learn Yooka Laylee, especially when many critics have the same gripes.

Again, I see Yooka Laylee as a proof of concept (they can really make this type of game) and they can learn from its failures. Essentially they are more prepared to make a good Banjo game then their were prior to Yooka Laylee.
