The one thing I forgot to mention: the noises Yoshi makes can be SUPER annoying. Especially when you want to throw a lot of eggs in a row. Not a huge deal, but man...it's not fun to listen to.
Also, you guys have no idea how much of a nightmare this video was to finish. My editor Kane and I were afflicted by a literal curse or haunting of some sort. Perhaps a gremlin or other mischievous paranormal creature. SOMETHING bad. Our computers just wouldn't do anything right and the thing wouldn't render properly. A day and a half later, we finally got it to work, somehow.
So if you ever see Kane on the street, give him an extra good hug for all the effort he put into this Yoshi review.
R.I.P. Arlo. Also second
I will give him such a big hug his ribs will snap in half @arlo
Arlo I have an idea talk about skylanders and what could have been
Thank you for all your effort though !
Did you get a new camera? :0
*WOAHSHI ITS A DOUBLE YOSHI EXPLOSHIII*
Text flashes in: thisisanactuallycommercial!
*woahshi
what arlo video is that from again?
_Give's Double Blowshi_
That Yoshi's Woolly World commercial was awful! Just like pretty much every other Nintendo Wii U commercial!
I got honest trailers to say that in their "A Wrinkle in Time" honest trailer
The pink squirrel enemies and some others are actually made of modelling clay. The Yoshis are made of felt.
*Dawn of the Final Week*
*7 Days left of Regginator.*
Professor Pro RIP 😔😢😰😥😓😭😪
Everyone, get some goodbye music!
*Colors sweeve into a spire of flame*
i'm sobbing
FInal hours starts playing during the last 5 hours before his retirement.
We'll hopefully see him in the direct rumored!
You should have said, "Hello, my tax evading friends" in the intro
No because that would drop the video to unwatchable
NO
BAD PLANT BAD
👏👏
@@sgtguy1 1
No.
It's garbage.
What's the joke here? Could someone explain?
Yoshi Woolly World's brand new yarn yoshi!
Spring yoshi!
Fling yoshi!
Tie the boss in string yoshi!
Zoom yoshi!
Boom yoshi!
Finding a secret room yoshi!
Down yoshi!
Underground yoshi!
Jump yoshi,
then pound yoshi!
Tap in a yarn yoshi amiibo,
WOAHSHI.
Its a *double yoshi e x p l o s h i !*
Yoshi's Woolly World: special amiibo bundle avaliable.
Only on Wii U. Rated E for Everyone!
Sad that such a great game was advertised like it was a cheap 5$ game made for kids. Who approved that ad? It doesn't even make sense!
Who else made this into a rap?
It's whoashi, not woahshi. Whoa is the word. Woah is not a word.
@@DeltathRiylaan thank you for correcting my yoshi vocabulary
@@finnworldwide1052
Arlo: is extremely family friendly, has a puppet as his mascot, and stops himself when saying “poop”
CZcams: demonetizes Arlo
Arlo: *_am I a joke to you_*
Lel
So true
What are you talking about? Arlo IS the puppet.
When was he demonetized?
I feel like they trying to give Yoshi a felt like texture.... but that is just my speculation :) but this game is amazing :)
He's quite evidently a plushie. Not sure how people are missing that.
I thought he looked like felt too! He looks like he was needle felted.
I thought felt too. Looks like that felt texture which I think Arlo described perfectly as "a messy, gross kind of look.". So if felt is what they were going for I would say they nailed it.
@@JZook yeah but he also says the low resolution makes it look blurry and not clearly identified as a plushie
It is very clearly felt to me. That fact that this is up for debate is wild lol
One thing:
“He WiLL cOMe FrOM bEHinD.”
Oh god no
Omg I love the new arlo intro, just random Arlo noises is the best~
Dont
Change it
I really hope that the Arlofancommunity channel will make a video of all the introsounds by the end of the year
Not terribly new anymore. He's been doing it for a while now.
Just a quick note: Yoshi's Woolly World's soundtrack was absolutely INCREDIBLE and I'm super disappointed in Crafted World's soundtrack. It still looks fun, but after the masterpiece that was Woolly World's ost, I can't help but feel let down.
I do think that Woolly world blows crafted out of the water
Ikr? Wooly World is not even comparable to Yoshi's Crafted World (YCW) in that department. Like, YCW is just the same motive repeated over and over and OVER again with different instruments and rhythms. "Remixing" themes can be agreeable when it's done partially and when the music you're remixing is actually good (like the battle musics in Paper Mario TOK) but god, YCW is the first game that got me legitimately BOTHERED by its music.
If a game has "meh" musics, it doesn't affect my playthrough that much but YCW's music really affects my enjoyment of the game. Know how mobile games often propose to mute the music and keep the sound effects? Never have I wanted a console game to have this feature that much before.
Wooly’s soundtrack was alright, can’t say it’s great though
You gotta fix that whole "never played Woolly World" thing, man. That is one of the best in the series, no doubt
You can flutter indefinitely in the original yoshi’s island too, probably just easier to do in this game
No, you can't. You'll lose altitude fast in the original Yoshi's Island.
This game is pretty beautiful from a design standpoint, but Yoshi's Island on the SNES will be my favorite Yoshi game.
nothing will ever beat yoshi's island. that game was damn near perfection.
While I thoroughly enjoyed Yoshi's Island, I enjoyed Woolly World more, despite its overall lower difficulty. And it ramps up with the special stages.
@@adamcrawford1390 🙌👍
DarkTyyp Music see pretty sure Yoshi's story is and always will be Yoshi's greatest game, any other choice is ignorant
FlowithAntonio it’s an opinion moron
You should definitely play Woolly World
The music is great, and the visuals look phenomenal
You might say that this is a very well *crafted* video!
*-I’m sorry.-*
get out. just go.
Door is to the left
You're not wanted here
I actually liked the pun.
Yeah Toopienstor, I liked it! :)
Got Star Fox Zero and Color Splash for Wii U but not Woolly World.
Arlo, I shake my head at you.
He’s also skipped out on every Xenoblade and Fire Emblem despite how often he whines about Nintendo not having single player games with rich stories
@@kylecampbell565 yeah but he probably means good single player games with rich stories
@@yourehereforthatarentyou those series are good
Kyle Campbell to be fair modern fire ( atleast fates ) and xenoblade 2 were pretty dang bad
Kyle Campbell I do love 1 and x
"Its levels are awesomely designed."
Shows Poochie Ain't Stupid.
Heya, you should give Woolly World a try. It is actually really challenging in parts (the unlockable levels) and the music is pretty great. If you give this a 6, you might actually give Woolly World a 7!
I think all the levels starting in world 5 are pretty challenging.
Having just beat Woolly World for the first time (when it came out in 2015 I was too distracted with Mario Maker), I can wholeheartedly agree with your statement. Especially the soundtrack!
I agree! Arlo would totally love Woolly World.
My favorite level is probably the curtain one (not sure if that was one of the unlockable ones though)
I agree with this. This game is decent enough but Wolly World is definitely the better game
Probably not. Woolly was kinda a bit too much "go right" and I think Arlo would find the level design inferior. It does have a good difficulty, but the item system where you pay gems for abilities makes that easier. Who knows though, just speculation on my part
Oh wow it's yoshi...Paper yoshi...crafted yoshi...wooly paper world...METROID PRIMEEEEEE 4!!!
What?...
Encamped Mars Arlos reaction to this games reveal, right after the announcement of MP4
hahahah true Arlo fan
Wanjing Cao thank you
That opening was better than all movies opening 10/10
The intro clip when he said “doooont” sounded like Po when he was getting tickled by Tai Lung at the very end of Kung fu panda
Quadruple woashi Yoshi triple deluxe Yoshi exploshi!
I have been binging your videos recently... and I have to say I am in love with your content. The reviews are insightful, entertaining and are delightful to watch with your refreshing format. Also the puppetry - which i am convinced is not a puppet but a sentient being - is top notch. Keep it up!
I actually think the music was incredible, the main theme was written to be simple and catchy and I just kept wanting to listen to it, you can see that the other compositions are re arrangements of the main theme and I think that is fantastic writing, 8-bit music theory even did a video analyzing it. I think the instrumentation was well done, the heaving use of pitched percussion and tin whistle really suited it well
Wow, such horrible music taste! Did you even hear the ost of Woolly World to be saying this utter nonsense? This game clearly lacked a decent amount of soundtracks and to use the excuse of "it's so good that you want to keep hearing it" is the worst one I've ever read so far
I much prefer the aesthetics of Woolly World. But I'll still pick it up. It should be a fun co-op experience.
I love you, Arlo
Before watching, I’m going to put my review here, then compare afterwards!
Category 1 - Controls
Amazing! The controls are improved upon so much from past Yoshi titles. Now, instead of having to press down after eating an enemy, Yoshi immediately turns it into an egg. The aiming is astonishingly better, as you can completely control where the egg is thrown! You can even throw the eggs at thing in the foreground & background! Controls earn a 5/5! I don’t have a single complaint.
Category 2 - Level Design
The levels are outstanding. The themes & gimmicks are so different, that I can remember almost every single one of them. Some are better than others, but they’re all super memorable for one reason or another. My favorites are the river level with the big fish & lily pads, the circus level where you must hop through rings, & the level where you ride a train through the mountains! The levels are also filled with loads of small puzzles & challenges, which makes the design anything but flat. I will say, that some of the levels are memorable for the wrong reasons. Some that come to mind are this one level where these (unfairly) fast clown - dolls chase you, & this HORRIBLE haunted house level. I’ll give level design 4/5
Category 3 - Visuals
The visuals are stunning. They combine a real world appearance & a cute/cartoony look that looks great! One of the best parts of the game is admiring the scenery of these levels, & also trying to figure out what the parts of the course are made from. I give visuals 5/5. Probably on of, if not the best looking Switch game.
Category 4 - Music
It’s really underwhelming. Many of the songs are remixes of the main theme, but it is just music. I’ll give it 2/5. Some of the remixes are really good, but I found myself turning down the volume most of the time.
Category 5 - Replayability
There is SO much to do after the main game. You can find 5 - 9 Smiley Flowers that are scattered throughout each level, find 100 coins in each level, try to find the 3 Poochie Pups on the flip side of each level in a set amount of time, find several hidden crafts in every world, get to the end of all levels w/ full health, & WAY more! 5/5.
In total, the game gets 21/25!
Phillip B. I agree with a lot of what u said
I freaking loved this game.
when that yoshis new island music played i actually looked around my room trying to find where that strange sound was coming from lmao
I’ve never played any yoshi games, but I played crafted world demo yesterday and absolutely loved it. I think I’m addicted. Never seen a game like this in my life. The style, the music, the overall graphics.
Co-op is surprisingly fun! The devs let you mess with the other Yoshi a lot, so while both of you are moving forward to complete levels and grab collectibles, there are so many opportunities to mess up what the other Yoshi wants to do. Swallow them and fire the other way. Take their eggs. Jump on their head. The game becomes a slightly more chaotic mess as you fight the mechanics and sometimes your friend as well. It makes it more hectic and perhaps not the platforming experience the devs wanted, but it sure is fun.
It's a chunky game. I've put 10+ hours in i think (darn you switch playtime counter) and I've not even got the second gem. I've been 100%ing everything though.
I am like that too with games... I don't want to move on until I've done everything :p
Noah Kamper 10+ hours is no where near a chunky game.
As someone who beat Persona 5. The premise of 10+ hours being chunky, gives me a soft chuckle.
@@SakuraAvalon 10+ hours to complete a fifth of the game is pretty chunky, especially for a platformer
It takes 15 hours to 100% the whole game. You're just slow as fuck.
Thanks arlo, this review did alot for me
Great review Arlo! U r the best! And I LOVED all the references! So funny and perfectly timed!! Do that in future reviews
You know as a first video to watch for you I kinda love your style of reviewing the game and the fact you are using a puppet to deliver your review. having never watched one of your reviews but hearing you referenced by other youtubers it was kinda refreshing to see something new I hadn't seen before. thank you for finding ways to keep reviewing games exciting. new subscriber right here.
If you played Woolly World before Crafted World. It suddenly makes Crafted World so much worse.
Well I did this I played Wooly World because Crafted World came out O did like Crafted World but not my little brother just because of lack of graphic textures he's young so he doesnt think about gameplay first.
I do think that Woolly world blows crafted out of the water
I played woolly world before crafted world and I liked crafted world leagues more
Woolly world is a lot better
I... disagree. I'm sorry, but I disagree.
I often think: "Arlo is the most convincing and seamless puppet work around..."
Than I remember: "Arlo isn't a puppet"
I just got a Yoshi’s crafted world ad while watching a yoshis crafted world review and playing yoshis crafted world on my switch.
Yoshiception.
DOWNT. That made me laugh so much😂
I think it's a reference to Po's fight against Tai-Lung in Kung Fu Panda, but maybe Arlo is in a DOUWN'T mood today.
@@hps362 Ohhh. I forgot about that.😅 You might be right
almost at the end of the game trying to get 100% completion and I’ve never noticed any drops in graphical quality
man I think I need some new glasses
No. It's just you are not bothered about graphics all the time
He doesn't really explain it well and he's not entirely correct in how he interprets what's happening anyway. If you've ever played Xenoblade 2, Splatoon 2 or Super Mario Odyssey, sometimes when you rotate the camera in an intense moment, the resolution will drop deliberately. It works two fold. First, it maintains 60 fps in an intense moment and second, the lowered resolution creates the illusion of motion blur.
Yoshi's Crafted World does this too at times, but in particular they use it to draw focus between the foreground, middleground and background as you aim your eggs at something. If you haven't noticed this, next time you play, stop and aim an egg at an object in the background. You'll see what appears to be a focusing effect, which is actually a change in resolution. It's kind of a cheaper, smoother way of doing this effect; using dynamic resolution. Also, the resolution has a larger-than-normal difference between docked and undocked.
Still, I think it looks great and I've had no real complaints. Oh. Also. Arlo says he doesn't know what material Yoshi is made of and complained about it. He's clearly a plushie!
@@DeltathRiylaan don't even get me started on handheld mode. I rarely wear my glasses while in handheld mode and I never realized how bad xc2 looks handheld until I put my glasses on 100 hours into playing the game mostly in handheld.
@@spellwells It was EXACTLY the same for me with Xenoblade 2! Hehe. I never wear my glasses either in handheld. It gives me a headache for some reason with the screen so close when they're on, for some reason. 😭
SUCH GOOD PUN INTRO!
Woosh indeed.
I was worried about the difficulty, but since I LOVE collectibles and the style of the game I think I’ll be picking this up. The review was very informative and entertaining as always, Arlo!
Usually I dont mind your lack of experience with games prior in the series but I was pretty shocked that you didn't play woolly world... woolly world is hands down the 2nd best yoshi game, and was a true successor to the Original. The music the variety of stages, the bonus levels, everything was filled to the brim with great game design and amazing gameplay. So this being the same studios second go, I was extremely disappointed at how far they declined...
A lot of people didn't play Woolly World because it was on the Wii U. It's a shame they didn't port it to the Switch instead of the 3DS. Also. I think Crafted World is better in almost every way.
@@DeltathRiylaan it is a shame and I haven't played it yet, so maybe I should try it, but it really doesn't look even closer to woolly world as far as gameplay... and also the most common complaint I hear about crafted world is the music, and in woolly world it was all so amazing. That would be a tough change
I do think that Woolly world blows crafted out of the water
Not even 20 seconds in and Arlo just made me laugh.
Same
I really wan a switch for this game.... I love yoshi, he is the best and cutest character
I know I’m a year late but I just got this game for Christmas and it is very fun and you should 100% pick it up (unless you have not played Mario Odyssey then get that instead)
@@34turtle how long is the game?
@@thatwaver8309 I think it is 5 hours minimum
@@34turtle damn bruh is it worth it then
@@thatwaver8309 yeah you can get some good time about 25-30 hours out of it (it’s only 5 if you do the bare minimum to complete the game)
I'm not super far into this game yet, but I am LOVING it so far! It makes me excited for the rest of the game to hear you speak of the variety of it. Doing a let's play of it and having a blast!
Hey Arlo great review enjoyed the whole video and say thanks to Kane for me. Greetings from the Bahamas.
I love how he keeps throwing shade and says “AHEM”
I feel like "exploshi" should be the name of Yoshi's final smash.
I swear, the clever wordplay Arlo uses to introduce each game in a review only gets better and better. 😊
Every time I see the arlo scale I can’t help but chuckle especially the 1 rating
Woah! Arlo still makes Game Reviews!!!
Why did you think he stopped...? Also, it's spelled whoa.
Nah.
"It`S sPeLt WhOaShI!"
I, the almighty Biggie Cheese, approve this video.
*I approves*
You edited your comment, so I now feel the need to edit my comment so it makes sense. However, some things are simply better without context.
Oh crap nobody better do anything stupid or biggie might release his wrath on us
Me cat chumby
....who?
When you joining Smash Biggie??
Yoshi’s Island map theme. Oh the nostalgia 😌 Great review. Oh! And the blue Yoshi is fitting.
Arlo, you are so fun and whimsical and colorful and blue. Thank you for doing what you do.
"Hello my Egg Pooping friends!"
Haha.
Switch sound of the year goes to
“DON’T” by arlo
I'm so glad you enjoyed the game, I've been playing it also and my only gripes were the exact ones you mentioned.
I would REALLY recommend that you play Yoshi's Woolly World if they ever port it to Switch or if you feel like playing in on the Wii U, they put as much love and care into it as they did Crafted World.
Just watched doki doki and was very happy to relax to this thank you arlo
Woah Arlo is your throat fine? You're sure a-hem-ing a lot this video
I've got some cough medicine!
It's grape flavored!🍇
I’ve got some butternut squash flavored medicine
The "person" who controls Arlo has a different voice, so when he speaks in his Arlo voice I think it hurts a little? I'm not so sure
This review is 1% review and
*99% paper puns*
first 40sec of the video is gold. this is why I subscribed.
I'm glad you gave it an almost perfect score, I'm literally only like 6-7 levels in and I've been playing for four days now. There is so much to do and it doesn't feel padded at all, it's lovely and just such a wonderful experience. I'll hand you that the resolution is a tiny bit disappointing, but I think I still prefer the smooth framerate. As always, great review!
Nintendo really have *crafted* an amazing game with new *cutting* edge technology! The *art* style really *drew* me in. It's a pretty *out of the box* idea!
I'm not sorry.
Dont be
*Raises one eyebrow*
Please leave
@@johnwarosa2905 No, never.
When I bought my copy, it was definitely in the box.
Maybe it's just my knitter bias showing, but I really preferred the visuals in Yoshi's Wooly World.
I like the way everything looks more in this EXCEPT Yoshi himself. I think yarn Yoshi is cuter than plush Yoshi.
I know this video is from earlier this year, but that intro was fantastic!
You get my like from the intro alone with this one, buddy. DAYUM did you knock it out of the park.
2/10 Shocking lack of tax evasion
What's the tory behind this?
@@DarkspineBowser czcams.com/video/Oc8vrGjyqes/video.html
Probably because it's a dead meme
Wouldn’t that make it better to you people?
This joke isn’t fun at all.
Finish the game before you review. You need to get past Yoshis existential crisis in prison before he undergoes mass tax evasion. Jeez people just review a game before they finish it drives me crazy.
0:46 play this on .25 speed
this is yoshi slowly sucked into oblivion
Yoshi is just gone!
Another addition to my backlog of Nintendo switch must buys
Thank you for this video! Thanks for your time and your work :)
Will you review cup head when it comes to switch?
Arlo you probably wont see this comment but you should do a review on the pro controller!
And this review segues even nicerlier into my purchasing the game. Any 6 or 7 game from Arlo is worth the buy. Thank you for your content, wasn't planning on picking this one up but now I just gotta :P
"Doooon't!" I swear, the Arlo switch intros get me every time!
“Hello my egg pooping friends”
10 seconds into the video and I’m already dying
Also this game was one of those games that exceeded my expectations, wasn’t surprised at first, but it ended up being a great game that felt like it was made with a lot of passion from its developers. Happy you really enjoyed it
Wait... So you haven’t played Wooly World? You should definitely play it sometime!
I’ve been waiting for this one!
I've bought it and have t got far yet, thanks for the review arlo! I'll have fun playing and I hope you do too.
STAR FOX ZERO WAS GOOD THANK YOU VERY MUCH
Woolly World has the better OST and amiibo content.
This is fact.
I (and almost everyone) can agree with this. But I will say this:
Crafted World has a better artstyle and better creativity/ideas than Wolly World (IMO). I can't say much on the level design though since I haven't gotten the game yet.
Well, a lot of people either A, don't have Amiibo or B, hate Amiibo. So that part doesn't matter much. And for me at least, I don't play for the music. Though I certainly prefer good music.
I see the game is on sale for Mar10 day and I was thinking of buying and I wanted to hear your review and after doing so, I think I might buy it!
Your voice gives me life. Keep it up!
4:18
Could someone tell me what he’s talking about? I don’t really plan on playing the game.
I think he meant the "Be Afraid of the Dark" level that subjectively turned the game into a horror game.
ZinC Podzzz It’s probably the level “be afraid of the dark” (as mentioned in the previous reply here) where you’re being chased down by a creepy sock puppet wilding a axe down a dark alleyway, also to mention that the information boxes have pretty creepy messages for a kids game, it’s like what a little child would experience if they had a nightmare after watching a scary movie (we all been there before)
I played the game and I didn’t even know what he was talking about😂
About the music: The composer for Woolly World left Good Feel shortly before Crafted World to become freelance, so the soundtrack for Crafted World was kinda cobbled together. It's a shame you seem to pass over the Yoshi games with great soundtracks and play the ones with crap music...
Will he come back? I wish so we can get bops like in woolly.
I got this game for a $1 from Target. I would have gladly paid full price for this game. It is such a chill game.
I just discovered this channel; and just saw this adorable video game! I only thought the only gosh I switch game was the yarn one too!! So I’ll see if my wife wants one of these adorable games for her switch
7.8/10
Too much yoshi
You can never have too much Yoshi.
How can you complain about the Wii U and never played Wooly World?
So far Wooly World was more enjoyable to me than Crafted World
This comment is silly. You can have an opinion on a system without having played literally every game for it.
Looks like an improvement on Woolly World, Thanks Arlo! Your 6/7 might tip me over to buying the game!
It's a downgrade lmao. The music of Woolly World alone is 100x better.
I just want to say that I played co-op with my daughter this weekend and had a lot of fun having her be the lookout/sharp shooter when looking for the extra collectibles from the robots with her Yoshi on my Yoshi's back having me focus a little on looking for the things but mostly making sure we didn't get hit and collecting eggs for her to use. That mechanic works really well if you're playing with younger kids that might not be as good at traversing the levels.
yoshi's tax money went into this game, be grateful
"Yoshi's Crappy World?"
I love that you named this "Yoshi Exploshi"!!
I believe these Yoshi are needle felted. That’s why the texture is so fine
Hello my birth giving friends lmao
The game is alright, that’s all.
"yeah, well, you know that's just like.. your opinion, man" - Dude
You know, this game is what I would describe Arlo as, filled with child like glee with fun little skits jokes, and a family friendly tone. Keep up the fine work, my muppet man!
From what I’ve played of Yoshi’s Crafted World “Go Go Yoshi” it was so creative.
