This game has terrible gameplay. It seems to follow in the footsteps of LEGO Worlds. LEGO Worlds is alright because it's more of a creator game and doesn't actually have a story. However for LEGO Movie 2, I expected more than this. The traditional gameplay for other LEGO games, like Star Wars, Dimensions, and LEGO Ninjago Movie holds up pretty well for a very long time. There is no reason to completely alter the gameplay if there is nothing wrong with it. The LEGO Worlds gameplay shouldn't mix with a LEGO adaptation or Movie setting. I don't like that every character is robbed of their abilities and weapons so you have to switch items in your inventory to use them. I also don't like constantly switching between super relics items when they could have been toggleable pause menu settings just fine. The voice acting for some characters like Unikitty and Maskless Mayhem are not so good. Also, it's confusing why Emmet doesn't talk the entire game, but his future self can. Speaking of which, where the heck was he when Emmet and Lucy crashed at the asteroid field. Also the narration is alright in small doses, but not the entire game. There are also no minifigure-sized bosses and not many original character boss fights. Also, the final battle is a disappointment if you seen the movie before. The rest of the story after that was rushed in a cutscene and should have been a playable level against the true main antagonist instead. This game is not awesome. I makes me fear of what's to come for future LEGO games. Not even a catchy musical number can save it.
