What have they done to my Dong...

I do hope this game has a lot of levels and gameplay depth to it. The only slight concern I have so far is the gameplay footage thus far seems heavily about destroying stuff. Hope there are plenty of fun 3D levels with traditional enemies. Weird, but some of my concern is the lower price tag of $70, when it seems all other remotely new first party titles are $80. Hope that doesn’t mean it's a smaller game in scope.

I did notice that the game is only 10GB, while Mario Kart World is like 23GB.

DKC Returns HD for Switch is 8 GB, not much less. And that's an 2D port of a Wii game. Would think 3D games in general would use a lot more space. But then again, Mario Odyssey was only like 6 GB and it was a huge open world game, so who knows.
