I kinda wish Nintendo would offer digital downloads for higher resolution textures. Not talking like 4K, but something higher than what's in the game. It's pretty obvious that one of the ways they keep file sizes down is heavy texture compression.

Just have a disclaimer that performance may be affected.

My biggest gripe was punching fucking fifty times to move like ten feet

Barb said the same thing when he was playing, he kept commenting about how ridiculous it was that the terrain required so many hits. I literally didn’t even finish the demo because it seemed so fucking stupid

my friend let me borrow it and i just can't get into it either. i'm barely 20 minutes in but i've put it down in that kinda way where i just know i won't be picking it back up. 3d platformers aren't that fun imo.
>>
>>736389053
I felt similar but it actually gets better as you go. Usually it's the opposite but in this game the early levels are the weakest

Bananza isn't a 3D platformer so why it solely be about 3D platforming like Mario?

None of those things are bad. Why are you pretending you played the game though?

i play games that are good
i'm astonished that a game by the Odyssey team feels this fucking bad to play
>>
>>736392574
Yep, the camera is horrific at times and it's lacking precise movement. Very janky at times.

played the game with my gf. she got bored by the time we hit depth 500 or so, but we also collected all bananas in each layer. she came back for the resort level which she loved but quickly bounced off again after that. I gotta say I burned out too. in the end we/I only made it to depth 1200.

I think the game's biggest problem is that it doesn't explore its own core mechanics in a meaningful way. there was that one very short branching path where they introduced a blue/pink material where whatever you destroy on the blue starts appearing on the pink and vice versa but this was literally only used in that 5 minute section and the only other mildly interesting terrain we encountered was the one that made you fly up while holding it. that's it. and finding the same kinds of bananas hidden in all the same kinds of places just gets stale. it also doesn't take long until you become completely immune to the game's casino effect of showering you with gold every 20 seconds. and while donkey kong can do some cool jumps like jump into surf into surf cancel into double jump into midair roll, there is basically next to no level geometry where platforming actually becomes a thing.
super disappointing game imo, but i guess the voxel based destruction system is interesting.
>>
I thought it was decent, but it wasn't as good as either odyssey or tropical freeze and I think I would've preferred a new entry in either of those. Didn't bother with the emerald whatsit, should've been free like luigi's balloon world.
>>
>>736393283
yeah that's the other thing, from all the footage i've seen the game never seemed to actually do anything interesting
all you really seem to do is throw chunks of dirt at every enemy and smash holes in the terrain until you get to the terrain you can't smash through and then you move on
but i couldn't even make it to any meaningful combat or platforming because on top of the amateur hour gamefeel, literally one minute into the demo i was already bored of collecting gold because there's not even any UI juice for picking it up
everything is worth some floating point value of gold so you don't even get the chunky mental feeling of a solid +1 or +10 gold, and there's no overhead or in-world popup showing the value of what you pick up, you just happen to glance at your total gold every once in a while and think "huh, it sure did go up by some vague amount since the last time i checked... maybe 35 ish? i guess?"

i figured surely i was wrong and got a bad secondhand impression of the game and i wanted to try it myself to give it a fair shot, but it turned out even worse than i imagined in ways that i still can't believe are the product of the Odyssey devs
the voxel system is neat thougheverbeit and i hope they can put it to better use in something very very different from Bananza

finish the sentence anon you can’t just drop a dramatic “HE” like you’re about to expose the deep state of banana physics and then vanish.

Inertia would be fucking aids in a game where you walk around. Sorry you are used to being raped because your movie games and walking simulators have to make simple movement feel more special. But there is more to do in this game.

I really wanted to like Bananza but there’s nothing really memorable about it. The worlds aren’t that interesting or creative, they’re just wide open spaces where you punch the ground. It’s like Minecraft but you can’t craft anything. There’s hardly any exploration besides just punching shit. It’s like someone felt the need to give Mario 64 a lobotomy. What was the target audience for this? YouTubers? What happened to Nintendo?

Maybe you guys will know. Between Kirby Air Riders or Mario Tennis Fever, which should I get? Note: I only play single player.

I disagree. all the animal forms are memorable. the end was memorable and kino. and there's tons of great locations like the food area , the poison forest, the final area. tons of exploration for the collectibles. the games mechanics are perfect and DK feels amazing to play. music is fantastic. anyone hating on this game is just outing themselves for having trash taste. its still the best game on the switch 2
