The greatest platformer of all time is British-made
I played this on Gameboy but it was just too hard for me.
>>729371357Diddy's Baby Oil Quest
>>729371357>British-madeYeah, and it's Yooka-laylee
>>729371387just go back to level one and farm dozens of lives
>>729371446Replayee is actually pretty good and solves a lot of the issues of the first game. It's still not the best platformer ever but it's crossed the line into being respectable. The worlds still don't largely have strong enough theming, with the casino level being an exception. If more levels had the personality that the casino one did then the remaster would go from being a 7/10 to an 8.5/10.But the original? Fuck no, and I enjoyed it more than a reasonable person could have. Way too much empty space in levels, and the unlocking gimmick(while fun in concept) means playing through a ridiculously empty world until you unlock the upgraded level, which is also still too empty but not as much so.
>>729371702I meant the original, it encourages you to explore the other levels too but "modern gamers" aren't up for that
>>729371357Too bad angloids aren't able to produce anything halfway decent now. They were on a roll back in the 80s and 90s.
>>729371357Does nobody play this game past the first world? The last half of the game is boring dog shit.
>>729371357I liked SMB3 better
Stickerbrush Symphony was mid. Yeah I said it.
>>729372702Mining Melancholy is way better
>>729372702Agreed. Now Stickerbush Symphony on the other hand... Yeah that one is way better.
>>729371357DKC2 is great, but going for 100% is really annoying, holy shit. I'm doing my first 100% run and I kinda regret it because it lowered my opinion on DKC2.
>>729371357I prefer the soundtrack and fast-paced horizontal levels in DKC1
>>729376748Just my personal opinion, but this is also why I prefer DKC1 to DKC2. The levels in DKC2 feel like they were designed around the hidden stages and bonuses. I don't like that at all. I prefer the bonuses and hidden states in DKC1, which were added after the levels were built. The same goes for the animal levels
>>729376748Really? I had a lot of fun exploring but back then I was a kid.I guess I can see an adult "just wanting to get over it" becoming annoyed at all the secrets stumping their progress, but this game had some smartly-hidden secrets.>>729378902Most in DKC1 were too easy, a few do stand out and I think hiding a bonus inside a bonus was a mean move.
>>729371357True
>>729376748After replaying DKC2 so much, NOT going for 100% just feels boring to me.
>>729371357SMB3 is Japanese though
>>729381010
The atmosphere whiplash between this game and 3How do you go from Crocodile Isle to...Canada
>>729381079>play dkc2>love it, 10/10 game>realize I'll have to look up where all the collectables are with a guide>decide to skip going for 100% as a resultdid I make a mistake? i hate looking shit up
>>729381617The first time I did it, I found most of the secrets on my own by just paying attention and using Cranky's hints. I think there was only two secrets I couldn't figure out and had to look it up.
>>729372702Stickerbush. And fuck you, it’s great. Anyway forest interlude was better
>>729372108sounds like you got filtered by the second half of the game
>>729381375DKC1 = A New HopeDKC2 = Empire Strikes BackDKC3 = Return of the Jedi
>>729371357Imagine a timeline where Rare didn't get bought out by microsoft.
>>729385062The Donkey Kong Country series is a masterpiece. Every game in the series is great, but things went downhill for Rare even without Microsoft. I didn't like GoldenEye 007 or Perfect Dark, I thought they were trash even back then. Star Fox Adventures is another garbage game that, for whatever reason, is beloved by a very dedicated fanbase. It was literally lightning in a bottle, and they couldn't recreate the moment.
>>729371357Is not?... Wait, rare is bri'ish?>dkc2Best ost ever
>>729371398kek
>>729372702pizza tower won't like it
>>729371446>>729371840>less content than the thing it's supposed to be a spiritual successor to>also runs worse and lacks basic features done multiple generations prior>"exploration" boils down to Kazooie if it took five notes and separated them as much as possiblelol
>>729389439Did you just call me Pizza Tower?
>>729371357I'm playing it for the first time. Toxic Tower is CBT.
>>729371357>The greatest platformer of all time is British-made
>>729371357A true 10/10.Replayed the DKC trilogy a few months back, and it's crazy how much better DKC2 is than DKC1 and 3 -- which are already fantastic games.1 feels kind of hollow, 3 has Kiddie Kong and feels just weird tonally.
>>729384848DKCR = The Phantom MenaceDKCTF = Attack of the Clones(they both suck)
>these logos pop upkino incoming
>>729391213Take your meds, tranny.
>>729371702the only thing replaylee does is make stuff easier. what a gamer you are
>>729393030>"I like this game.">TRANNY TRANNY TRANNY TRANNY TRA--Unironically, meds, now.
DKC is platformers for people who hate platformers. It was the Cinemashit of its time.
>>729371357Not even in the top 20 on the SNES
>>729394536*Not even in the top 40.These are all better:Super Mario World Super Metroid Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island Super Castlevania IV Contra III: The Alien Wars Super Turrican 2 Sunset Riders Demon's Crest Umihara Kawase Lucky Luke Kirby's Dream Land 3 Ganbare Goemon 2: Kiteretsu Shougun McGuinness The Adventures of Batman & Robin Hameln no Violin Hiki Hagane DoReMi Fantasy: Milon no DokiDoki Daibouken Sparkster Magical Pop'n Mickey to Donald Magical Adventure 3 Ganbare Goemon: Kirakira Douchuu The Magical Quest Starring Mickey Mouse Pop'n TwinBee: Rainbow Bell Adventures Nangoku Shounen Papuwa-kun Super Adventure Island II Disney's Aladdin Super Turrican Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts GS Mikami: Joreishi wa Nice Body Skyblazer Nosferatu Majyuuou The Great Circus Mystery Starring Mickey & Minnie Prince of Persia Plok Super Bonk Joe & Mac 2: Lost in the Tropics Marvel Super Heroes in War of the Gems Congo's Caper Go Go Ackman Run Saber Fuck donkey kong and fuck mega man.
>>729394428You wot? DKC wasn't the hardest platformer for the SNES, but you can't seriously say something like SMW or kirby were harder games.
>>729372108The first world is the least interesting in the entire game, what nonsense are you shitting out?
>>729394536>Yoshi Island>Kirby Dream Land 3>Batman & Robin>Doremi Fantasy>Magical Quest>Adventure Island 2>Super Ghouls'n Ghosts>Plok>etc etcAs expected, you have to keep this throwaway line to a vague "20 games are better than it!" because the moment you make a real list, it's extremely obvious that you're just delusional (or has a serious case of nostalgia goggles) if you think those are better than DKC2.It's not even like I hate all those games, I can enjoy a 7/10 but they really aren't better.
