I really wanna like this game, y'know. I swear, I do. The actual main levels of the game are really fun. The stealth is fun, and I like how aside from bosses, everything is one hit away from death, including you.
But what really brings it down for me is just how insufferable I found the minigames. I found them all really tedious, and for some reason annoyingly difficult. Those racing minigames especially were some of the worst. And while I wouldn't complain if they were optional, but they're not, and you have to do them to beat the game. There's also just a large amount of them, typically each world has at least 2 Minigame stages. And its like, if these minigames just weren't there, this easily could've been a 4 Star game, no doubt about it. Cause as I said prior, the game is really good, and it's really only the minigames that bring it down for me.
