I'm pretty sure if I looked for the definition of overrated pretty sure it's just a picture of skylanders trap team sure the roster of new skylanders are pretty good and the doomraider fights are decent (although the damage cap that stops you before the phases are over get really tedious) but the gimmick poorly executed with their being no point of using the boring as fuck villians that are often better when you fight them compared to when you actually play as them and the villains seem even worse by comparison when the skylanders are so much more enjoyable and complex they can't even be used as good support like some argue because their moves disappear when you switch back, tons of glitches,the levels are nothing special compared to the quality of the levels from previous games and superchargers lacking in level gimmicks,not looking as visually stunning as the levels from swap force or superchargers and not utilising elemental abilities like earth skylanders breaking rocks and water skylanders swimming like spyro's adventure had leaving most levels to feel pretty bare bones and boring to me not helped by the previously mentioned glitches and some levels don't even have the decency to have good music with half the levels having generic stock music that doesn't add to the atmosphere at all (although i will say the actual music that is composed by balfe is decent even if it's weaker than the other entries soundtracks bar imaginators but that barely counts),the crappy co-op respawn mechanic that dragged both players back that frustrated both me and my sister, removal of pvp and the amount of figures you need to 100% the game (10 Trap Masters,11 Traps and 4 Adventure Packs) really hold back the game.
The fact that this is the most popular game within the fanbase is extremely disappointing
