Not really, I like it. Also it's hard to make a new game not using the old story, then they would have to do a whole new series I assume. Idk, I just love how people clank down on it because they are so infatuated with the older games in the series, lol. I mean yes I love the SNES/GBA port and I played that game a lot, but yeah this "new island" game is good on its own and the artwork is gorgeous.
As for personality, I don't really think that is the largest issue here lol... The older game didn't have too much of a story or personality other than making the Baby brothers the lead roles riding on yoshis etc. which was a fun game but tbh I'd rather have this than 10 more snes copies.
Sunset is a damn good game, I don't know why people hate on it so much -_- Not my fault if you don't bother reading up on modern history during the 1960s-70s in the Americas.
