I really wished Nugget-o and Lily-et was different than what we actually got.
The Lily here is much different than the Lily from the previous games. She's curt and blunt, she only appears when we find her in the tree, she's wearing a bright blue dress for some reason when in the last game she was wearing a hoodie to hide better? She's suddenly concerned about Nugget when he's about to die (despite walking out without much of a shout) but seems so annoyed by him every other time -- which WAS reasonable for when he prevented her from getting information with Scippio, but not the whole mission! And she's so noncommittal about Kevin maybe dying when in the previous game she was distraught she couldn't save the others.
And Nugget is super strange as well. He's always been weird, and some of it we could chalk up to goo, but he wasn't the type to actively chase Lily. While he liked her, he was too nervous to give her anything in the first game until the player helped, and (I may be wrong, it's been a while) in the second game, he didn't breathe a word about his crush besides the name "pretty Lily". But here he's correcting her to say Nugget Cave of Love, he's actively trying to rope her into Romeo and Juliet, it's just so strange. And not to mention the fact he didn't think about digging the nugget cave because there were no "suitable spots" even though he did it later. Why would he not want a nugget cave? There was a shovel right there, could he not have been in conflict with the bunny trying to get it??
Maybe it's just my biases speaking because those two are my favourites but I wish the whole mission could've been done a little differently. I wish the play that they had picked was relevant to the plot, instead of just because out-of-character Nugget wanted it. I'll probably write a fic about this later because I think it could've been so much better
