Ratchet & Clank at its most formulaic so far.
The game does nothing to set itself apart from its predecessors, nor does it have the charm or storytelling to stand out either. The villain Emperor Tachyon is basically just as lame as Emperor Otto Destruct but more annoying.
The weapon selection is mostly boring as well, with only the tornado gun really standing out.
I don't know, it's fine? There are far worse things to play out there obviously, but I suppose I just expected more from one of my favourite franchises.

Extremely charming dialogue reminiscent of the frog detective series with fun movement to explore the island with.
The game does a great job at making the island feel large while allowing the player to traverse it easily due to the amount of golden feathers you can obtain.
Beat it in 1.5 hours, adored every minute of it.
Claire has also joined the list of my favourite gaming characters. Just all around an amazing little game.

The first few worlds are amazing and really kick this game off to a fantastic start. If the game was just the first few levels and the last few levels this would indeed be the 5/5 stars game people hype it up to be.
Unfortunately the middle chunk of the levels has a lot of stinkers and quite a few stars are incredibly vague in their description.
Lots of good ideas and fun levels and I can see why the speedrunning community adores it but as a casual game it has it flaws. Overall a great starting off point for 3D mario I wonder where they'll go next!
Oh. Oh no.

The movement is amazing but the game itself just does not utilize it well at all. Many broken levels causes this to more often than not be a very frustrating experience with some highlights sprinkled in.
Being forced to beat the first 7 stars in each world to beat the game does not help either.
Bowser Jr. is cute though :>

Very problematic story with great gameplay. Extremely mixed feelings on this one.

It's not... good. But it is one of the funniest games I've played through and it will always have a special place in my heart.

The fox imagery at the end made me cry.
So far this and Portal 2 are the only videogames that have made me cry, I don't know what that says about me.
Incredibly simple but clever storytelling, though the length of the individual chapters does hinder it. The ending is honestly fantastic and goes so well with the slightly eerie feeling of being watched that permeates through the entire first half of the game.
If this was 1-2 hours shorter it would've honestly been a 5 star game, but as it stands the length holds it back ever so slightly.
