Personally I really liked the train system, if you can get past the times you use the train and the somewhat slow beginning meant for newcomers, then I think you're really going to enjoy the game. The boss battles are the real highlight for me personally, as they were surprisingly more difficult this time.

I've said many times before, it doesn't matter if you don't have a background of Japanese culture, it's easy to understand the concept of Yo-kai, ghosts that cause life's many problems for people. Maybe it doesn't appeal to adults that much, but it has captivated most children across Japan. And it certainly has gotten so much love in the West with children too. I've met many young children who dearly loved the game.

Honestly, I think a collaboration between PKMN and L5 would be needed to grab the audience YW needs. There's already the barrier of pessimism of YW being a PKMN clone, so Nintendo needs to address it to be successful
