It does look considerably more my thing than SotC was. I understand it's got a great sense of humor, which would be really nice after this game that really did take itself really seriously...
I won't say it took itself TOO seriously. There are a lot of video games I feel do that, but SotC, for its faults, does establish a itself as a world that is humorless and that it holds a lot of gravity... It's kind of annoying, but I don't find it silly
I'm trying to finish the lost gem that is Conker's Bad Fur Day as well. As a platformer, it's okay, nothing all that special. Thank God it has an epic sense of humor
