Why does every single "spiritual successor" to an old beloved franchise turn out to become a total failureYooka-laylee, mighty number 9, balan wonderworld
Bloodstained was good.

Because many of those franchises came out during a time of incredible innovation and remix franchises rely heavily on nostalgia, which lends a more critical eye because then people evaluate the remix games to the standards they have in their minds of the games they played as a childhood.
>>743347874>as a childhood.I need sleep, holy fuck.
>>743347739because the ones making it have nothing to do with the old developers
>>743347809Bloodstained was OKAY, but had really small amounts of actually good abilities compared to Dawn and Aria, its spiritual predecessors.
Banjo is hot
>>743347739Because many key people who were involved with the originals are usually left out. Most of the core programmers weren't involved with Yooka-Laylee, Gregg Mayles the damn creator and character designer of Banjo himself wasn't involved at all, the original musician known for his distinct style of Banjo ost only did about 50% of the tracks that time around, and the Stamper Brothers, the main drivers of Rare success weren't involved either.
