As someone who grew up playing the Little Big Planet games throughout my childhood, I was very excited when Sackboy: A Big Adventure was announced. After playing the game all the way through, I felt that it was fun but missing something. After playing the original Little Big Planet for a couple hours, it hit me. Yes the gameplay is good, but you had to pay in game currency (of which you could spend real world currency to acquire if obtaining it in game isn't your style) to get customization items for your Sackboy. What I'm trying to say is that this game is just going through the motions, it's missing the love, and child like wonder of the original Little Big Planet trilogy. It wasn't just a gigantic toy box for you to play in, I didn't spend hours trying to make the coolest costume before even jumping into the first level, and there is no hub world that you can customize for downtime between levels. Trying to see how much stickers you can put on the walls. It's a shell of what the original games were, with strong gameplay, but no substance.
