I appreciate that they wanted to make it better, but honestly I don’t think most of the enhancements are what was “wrong” with the game (a map is very welcome, though). And they added another currency?
I wanted to like the original more than I did, and I’m ok with it staying in my memory as a 6/10. Probably won’t buy the full version, but might try the demo just to see. Would have rather seen a new game from them instead.
I thought Impossible Lair was pretty good. Of course, it was a complete different genre, and basically that genre was just “Donkey Kong Country”. Nevertheless, great execution.
I played the actual YL after that one, and… Yeah, I went through it all and barely remember it. Sure, I don’t even have a lot of nostalgia for collectathons, except if you count the 3D Mario kind… But it was definitely bland, and had annoying design problems.
Impossible Lair was a great game. To me, it felt like it was definitely it’s own thing but inspired by the classics. I like what they’re doing, even if YL was a bit of a miss apparently.
