What's everyone's beef with this game? Even though the controls and camera were a little wonky and the game crashed on me like 10 times I still loved it. It really did bring me back to being a kid playing Banjo Kazooie and trying to collect every collectible. The ones that seemed impossible to get made me feel so accomplished when I finally got them (looking at you Hurdle Hijinx and Kartos). My honest opinion is that I’m absolutely loving it, I feel like a kid again with banjo but can actually play it this time and understand what’s going on. Can’t wait to collect everything I can and finish the game. Hope they make similar games to this.

It's not really that it wasn't bad, it's just that it wasn't good. It was incredibly average. The worlds felt big and empty and the collectables felt more like chores than rewards.

Because the publisher's are dipshits and the devs don't know how to handle controversy very well meant that a game that was okay was demonized because "muh social justice" apparently ruined the game since Jontron's cameo was removed.
So basically eceleb bullshit revealed the devs and publisher to be kikes.

It was ok. It felt unfinished and most of the collectables were just a chore to collect since they were just scattered without care rather than used as a means to guide the player to something new and/or fun. That and the minions felt uninspired and unthreatining, as if the devs just put them in the game for the sake of having the. If the same care that went into A Hat in Time went into Yooka-Laylee then it might have been a better game.

Yooka had too many times when you go to explore a place and you don't even find anything. The ratio was really low for me. And then they hide shit in the most bizarre places that you'd never look.
I disagree on the Odyssey moons. It seems like there's so much to do and exploring some part of the map is almost always rewarded. As compared to Yooka, where getting rewarded for exploration is a real treat. Meanwhile you run around wide open areas collecting quills, which has hardly any sense of exploration.

And in another year it may have gotten recognition for that, but it happened to come out in the same year as Gravity Rush 2, Snake Pass, A Hat in Time, and Mario Odyssey.

Its one of those games where the previews were better than the game when it came out.
There was a lot of cut content for example they promised awesome voice acting from a persian supremacist but the game didnt have that in it at all.

This is how I felt about it too.
It didn't feel like it was harking back to the golden age of 3D platformers. Instead, it felt like it was harking back to the golden age of me-too shovelware 3D platformers. I felt like I was playing some long-forgotten shovelware title on a Playstation demo disc.

Long story short, dogshit PR shortly before the game was released, in addition to a game that overall was met with mixed, at best, reception. It's possible that the former was a factor for the latter, and will definitely hurt Playtonic in the long run.

Tried way too hard to pander to nostalgia and be a Banjo clone. Just play Banjo instead. If you want a new collectathon style game, play A Hat in Time. That game actually turned out good.

Even supposedly being made by old Rareware devs, the game is a cookie-cutter ripoff of old Rareware platformers with barely any identity of its own. Instead of doing something new and creative, they just copied things they had done previously and made slight changes. It was a game made to pander to nostalgia so much that it never did anything to set itself apart.

You probably loved Skyrim too, didn't you? You sound exactly like the cucks defending that pile of shite.
As for this, it's a 4/10. The levels aren't interesting, the minigames are shit, the non-main characters you meet are poorly done, the controls are fucking terrible, the camera is worse than even the earliest of 3D platformers, and when you think about it, the devs should have known better. Just shows that they're all washed up hasbeens.
Also, the designs for yooka and laylee are plain and uninspired, the only art choice that stands out are the red crests.

The most amusing part was that the devs were going damage control, trying to sound as middle of the ground as possible while members of the publisher just rode the fucking controversy train by throwing gasoline on the fire, insulting consumers and people genuinely somewhat upset by the ordeal and just having a fucking parade while the devs silence on their actions kinda dug the grave for them.

The point is we were promised awesome persian grunts. And that was removed.
Plus they deleted him from the game for no other reason than him being persian which makes them assholes.

This.
The same mindset that makes a retard become a leftist SJW is also responsible for making him/her an incompetent hack that can't see their own limitations and always think that they are doing a good job when they are failing.
All developers that embrace leftism and SJW cult behaviour are guaranteed to already be hacks or to at least have lost any former talent that they had in the past.

It banked on nostalgia for shitty games from a time when standards were all over the place and marketing was still a driving force in the industry.
Rare in the N64 days produced only shitty games with horrible design that sold themselves on marketing alone.
This situation is becoming more and more irrelevant as time asses by.
Good games or GTFO is slowly becoming the norm even to normalfags.

It just shows that the whole team was comosed by either literal cucks and/or insecure failures of living beings.
When you have either in any roject, the project will always fail sooner or later. If you have both, it will fail from the start.
