It's wonderful to see a modern platformer game that truly has the spirit of the classics I grew up with. Now I know Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze came out as well, but with a relatively new IP Playtonic games has done exceptional work. In a way, I do feel like this game was created just for me. Everything from the first Yooka Laylee game was polished and improved, creating a new game that has 20 levels with "B-sides" modes that change up the gameplay. With all the features, secrets, and charm Yooka Laylee 2 has, I can see this becoming a "forever game" of mine.
Let me know what you think about my Yooka Laylee review!

LIVE SHOW HYPE!!! Excuse that outburst, at first i was really confused why the next Yooka-Laylee game was a 2d platformer, and it wasn't until seeing this that i realized it's a DKC game. I was gonna sleep on this game until there was a half-off sale, and i might *still* not get it just yet, as I am still going through some secondary playthroughs of FE3H... But as soon as I finish that, I think I'll dive right in! Keep up the great work Jirard, you'll always be the best youtuber in my eyes!

Playtonic actually rolled out an update that makes getting the Golden Try less tedious. You now just flip a switch outside the Lair and you can access it bee-less at any point in the game. And they confirmed that you can get the Golden Try at any point this way, without starting a new save and going through the tutorial again.

Like, it was so bad, I literally had someone come into one of my streams of the game, telling me I should request a refund because I was sold something that was taken back. As if I backed the game exclusively for an incredibly insignificant easter egg, a cameo from someone I don't particularly care about. How was the actual game? I enjoyed it. It was a fun 28 hours.

@@briankeys5941 Alright, fair enough. The word is supposed to be "Reductionist", but I doubt that was enough to make me sound like "an HP Lovecraft character". Still, you're arguing my word rather than the point itself, which is kind of missing the point. You're not wrong; he does sit around playing games all the time. That's his job. That doesn't mean it's not _work_, and THAT's what we were discussing here. I'd say sitting for 62 hours on the same thing over and over again is pretty mentally taxing. And that's just playing the game. Apart from that, he does a lot of other things when it comes to running the business and producing the videos. Most of that has him sitting down, but the same can be said for more or less any office job. In any case, we might not see eye-to-eye on this and that's fine. I just think there's a bit more to it than what you're saying, but eh. I suppose it doesn't matter.

Even though DUSKMARE is still a feature in the game, you only have to play through A level on DUSKMARE to get the relevant achievement.

I feel like the cumbersome nature of the "Impossible Lair" level could have been fixed by introducing a choice system upon entering the level after the initial attempt. "Would you like to storm the Impossible Lair with the Beetallion? -YES! Let's go! (x out of 48 assembled) -I'll do it myself! -Not yet." Selecting "I'll do it myself!" would bring up some sort of prompt like; "Are you sure? It'd be much easier to get through it with the Beetallion at your back. -Yes! I can do it! -I'm not sure..." From there, it would restart normally if you die on the level.

The hate bandwagon for the first game got way out of hand, so I'm glad they didn't give up on the series. I thought the first game was great, and this one is too. Loving it. (I'd be willing to bet that most of the people that are still spewing hate over the first game never even played it... or they're just JonTron fanboys).

@PDIcomics 4 года назад

THEY HAD NO BUSINESS REMOVING JONTRONS VOICE JUST BECAUSE HE STUCK UP FOR WHITE PEOPLE

@huntercrunch94 4 года назад

PDIcomics I sincerely hope you’re joking.... if so, joke’s on me... but I’ll bite anyway. I fail to see how what he said was “sticking up for white people”. White people don’t need to be defended in the first place. He was just parroting white nationalist rhetoric. But I’ll be clear here. I don’t think JonTron is racist. I watched the interview where he said what he did, and in context it seemed to me like he was put on the spot with some questions almost poised to make him say something offensive. That being said, Playtonic was, at the time, a brand new first time developer. It was very understandable from a business standpoint why they didn’t want to be associated with someone who said the things he did. From what I understand, even JonTron understood why they removed his voice from the game. Also, he was making garbled noises voicing a character in a porta potty. Who cares?

Now this is just a suggestion, I love your show, but I've seen you end games with a "Finish It" rating despite how the game is and usually from a single sour spot. My suggestion is to maybe make it something like "Complete It minus the golden tonic". But then again, people watching the video all the way through would probably see your love and appreciation of the game and know well enough to do just that. And also, congratulations on the Nomination!
