Listen man I don't care if this game is not my demographic, it should not be THIS boring. Kids game or not, this is no excuse, this is a Yoshi title, and Yoshi titles in the past were made for kids but didn't treat their audience like fucking toddlers, ironic since they used to carry ones on their back. But its crazy to me that Woolly World was a really great game and then after that we got something even worse by comparison.
Make no mistake, Yoshi's Crafted World is awful, the level design, the repetitive mission structure, the annoying soundtrack consisting of 20 songs, the slow as fuck pacing. There's just nothing here for you. For completionists its a complete slog trying to get everything because some jag off thought it was a good idea to have the mission structure be something you exit a level, get told an objective, go back to level, and then repeat ad nauseum for 5 times. Like huh??? Did no one not realize how annoying and tiresome this is?? and it's all just padding, since you go into the same level you already completed to scavenger hunt one thing to hit with your eggs and that's it. You have the option to leave the level and then once you're taken back you're given a new thing to find. I think once I saw that I was like "Oh fuck no"
So even disregarding that I thought of just playing through the levels normally and not worrying about any collectbles but like here's the thing, if you do that the game becomes too boring and easier than it already was. You'll be blasting through levels without a second thought and there's practically no reason to even replay them cause all of them were built with you in mind to collect everything. So you end up missing on the parts that are "Fun" if you could even call it that. If it sounds like i'm being too harsh on this game its cause I am, who allowed this sort of shit to hit the shelves everywhere and why tarnish the Yoshi series like this. They really focused into the whole artistic direction this series can go to that they forgot how to make a fun platformer through it all.
