Oh it's certainly with regards to the reviewers preferences and on how well the difficulty was handled. It's just that I notice much more ire if a more challenging game gets knocked down for being too hard rather than the other way around whereas I never saw either as a problemBut if the reviewer happens to hate too easy or too difficult games, it's valid, don't you think? I mean, either extreme can definitely ruin one's enjoyment of a game.
I'm such a big fan of 3D platformers that I'll probably give this one a chance, but I am worried that it'll feel too mindless (like the Kirby games!) because of the lack of challenge.
Well I wouldn't call those mindless but, if a lack of a challenge is a concern, then, yeah, there are better options elsewhere if challenge is what you're looking for, if what reviews say is any indication
