Gotta enjoy this game tbh.
The hate from lovers of the classic trilogy is understandable: it looks and feels very different, there are LOTS of vehicle levels compared to platforming and Coco is highly underutilized.
Nevertheless, it's a great Crash game and it's from a different company, so yeah, it'll be different, but it's a great Crash game. The formula is all there with trademark great music and level design.
