I always hated Tooie. It just felt all over the place. Kazooie was a long shot between two trees, Tooie was a shotgun blast to the face. Just big, messy and sh*t everywhere.
I have no idea where you got the idea DK64 'killed' this genre. The genre is still there. Gaming on personal computers and a lot of the events which led to computer gaming becoming more popular, is what we really need to look at. You are only analyzing a small fragment of an cultural shift that happened in the late 90's, and you got it dreadfully wrong. When PC prices came down with the advent of the mini-tower, and console prices started going up due to market complacency and greed, a hole in the market started to form. Sega also failed with marketing their Dreamcast, which didn't help the matter for consoles, while at the same time, Nintendo became morally purist about things like blood and gore, which limited their mass appeal. It also made game developers disinterested in releasing games on Nintendo platforms, because it would have involved extra work censoring the games after the fact. Consoles would take a backseat to the PC, until Microsoft invented the Xbox. Nothing got 'killed', in the way you described it. The remake of Ninja Gaiden By Team Ninja was a 3D platformer, so was the console Prince of Persia series, Portal, Uncharted, and i'm going to ask this next question bluntly; How in earth, did you leave out the Zelda series, or God of War, for exploring this concept that DK64 all on its own, outright killed the genre. Those two series along with some of the Mario games kept that genre very much alive. In the words of Kratos to Thor from Ragnarok; Be better...
I only played banjo kazooie when I was a kid because my parents couldn’t afford to buy the sequel. The first time I played tooie was when the game came out for Xbox arcade. I don’t like it much. The points made here is the reasons I don’t like it.
When I was a kid, I had a friend who's Dad loved beating N64 games. I used to watch him play and he really would never say a word. He was very focused the whole time. This game was the only game I ever heard him scream curse words throughout the house while he was playing and after he was done.
I don't hate it, I love it. Everybody I know loves it. Only the internet seems to bash it relentlessly, this trend started around 2012 and I don't get it. I'm on a playthrough right now after decades and it still holds up, It has so much variety it's unbelievable.
the games must evolve in difficult and features. tooie did awesome in those aspects. would you like it to be like the far cry saga, which is basically the same game over and over again? well, definitely not me. both BK and BT were awesome and i enjoyed them a looot when i was a kid. good memories.
The fact that this challenge is too hard for someone that was playing Pikmin 1 with four buttons on his controller speaks volumes. And on top of that, even strongmanlin admitted one of the tricks is too hard so he needed to defer to someone else! 🤯
I don't understand why people hated the backtracking so much. That's what you do in all RPG games, especially for side quests. I enjoyed it. It not only made the worlds and collecting feel connected, but made for a great and interesting challenge. The worlds were big, but what else did you expect in a sequel? The only downsides to that are making some of the worlds hard to navigate, but again, that's part of the challenge.
I have a feeling you are going to hate me for saying this... but I think it might be somewhat possible to beat pikmin without down on the joystick if you manage to cause a mass pikmin extinction every day. The 1 pikmin sent out after that should tottally be available for use.
The ds lite was my first handheld console, and at that time of 2011, games were becoming fairly cheap as the 3ds has gained some momentum, followed with the wii games too, was plenty games out there by hiw common it was for people to have the good titles and of course, plenty of shovelware, but past that there was alot of deals to be had with loose used games on ds, nsmb was about 6 loose, snd so on, got a 2ds in 2015, great great jump in what i could do on it, finally had a working touch screen, had the world wide web, had a camera, had a customizable ui, had a social media to share screenshots of games and ask and disscuss about games, or just, draw art, the menus were beautiful, (as the wii u is too) tons of features that made sense, and the wii u had likewise menus and features, really digged how they handled gamepad and wiimote gameplay with backwards wii titles, nintendo had good features, and eventually, had bargins, like the 2ds, and nintendo selects titles, first parties for 30 bucks was plain great, now for modern, online became paid in 2018, wasnt a change i liked, played splatoon 2 alot then, Animal Crossing New Horizons was a game i waited awhile for, one ive been wanting since i got new leaf in 2016, on the launch day of the game i played it a good bit, stayed up late to download it, it was good for the first month, past that, its pretty stale if you dont have any humans to play with, why?, because theres nothing to do, the villagers are predictable puppets that are overly friendly no matter what, not really anything to do but rot on the island, do the same things you did as early as the first one on gc (or n64 for japan), compared to animal forest e+, it seriously falls apart in gameplay and things to do, a updated n64 game beats the latest and greatest of the franchise, the game didnt even have seasonal events at launch, it took many uodates to even get a fraction of what new leaf had, i can say, this game was far from ready, its like they let them make the textures and setting first, then had them rush for everything else, its just a bad game, Nintendo isnt the Nintendo i knew. Not with this switch era, of course the mainline stuff like your marios and your splatoons and your side stuff like luigis mansion was pretty great, but the sports titles were, rushed, pokemon, rushed, the hecking ui even looks rushed and they just went with flat minimalism to cover it up, and a good bit of the ui is just web based, most noticable is the eshop, its barren and lifeless, just products in squares to buy, no music, no seasonal get ups, nothing, Nintendo is truly over for me, id hope they get their act together next time.
"do they know you're Canadian?" American here who watches quite a few Canadians: i've known the moment i heard him say sorry and tomorrow because i say it that way and i picked it up from other Canadians i watch 😭
@@GBDupreeI know there are two people who run the channel. But I’m pretty sure that’s Dan’s voice narrating his own challenge. Idk I could be wrong though
