By my standards it is bad. 80% based on customizing vehicles and creating them = I am not interested in that. I enjoyed using Kazooie to fly, shoot eggs, whack enemies with her wings, and so on. As it is, all we will now get, is Kazooie using a wrench. Now if it was 20% vehicle use, that'd be fine. After waiting so long for a new BK and having them alter it like this is a let down. If they had another traditional Kazooie game in the pipeline for the near future, fair enough, but they don't. Not to mention, no whimsical Mumbo magic now..he is a mechanic...why not make a new franchise, or attach this concept to something like Jet Force Gemini which it would suit better.
And as you said, as opposed to using Kazooie, we use vehicles...so how is that Banjo Kazooie. It may as well be Banjo: Nuts and Bolts. Kazooie is essentially redundent. She also appears to have had her wings clipped. A character is essentially removed from a duo and made...next to nothing...in favour of using cars and planes, it is pretty different really.
Also, from videos I have seen, I see Banjo in a vehicle, which shoots off and then bounces around...it looks terrible. It is as stupid at Perfect Dark Zero's ragdoll physics - you die and boune around like rubber.
Also the fact remainds Rare could easily have made it more exciting for all by restraining the vehicle aspect to 20% at least, if that percentage it is enough for a watered traditional aspect present in Nuts N Bolts, it'd be more than enough of a percentage for a new aspect added in the form of vehicles.
If people enjoy it fair enough, but there is going to be a lot of let down people that could also have been enjoying it. Sadly Rare are dead-set on being creative and ground-breaking and thinking of themselves, and not their fans, which can be read within their interviews, with how often they refer to themselves.
