I am a huge fan
of the original Prince

of what made the original games great, and I was right, the gameplay has been completely destroyed, platforming is awkward do to too may actions being mapped to the same buttons, combat is tedious and unenjoyable, it's EXTREMELY repetitive, having to search around for light seeds just to advance the plot is stupid, and do to the fact that you can't really die the whole game just feels like trial and error, and the new Prince
character is completely unlikeable, while they messed up most
of the game it's got some good things
going for it, the voice acting is solid, the graphics are beautiful, and the ending does have interested in seeing where the story

There are so many things wrong with this game, first
of all the plot is too linear you play as Mario throughout the whole game you don't get to play as peach or bowser, there are no new

of stickers you have no choice but to run away, peach only has
about five lines, bowser is the main antagonist and he has no dialogue, in the previous installments the main antagonist always had dialogue, and one
