The core Legends content is quite enjoyable. Outside of the music levels, which are close to platforming perfection, there's nothing particularly memorable here but it all trucks along quite enjoyably, and has both a lot of neat ideas and a good sense of flow to it. I'd probably give like a 7.5/10 or something to this part of the game if it existed in a vacuum.

The Murphy content and Origins content is just...so much worse though. The Origins content in particular is just...subtly more frustrating and less fun in every conceivable way than the core Legends content? The Origins bosses feel particularly egregiously designed, and the flying sections are just dull.

It's weird to think that if you stripped away a bunch of content from this game I would actually just think much more positively of it.
