Board 8 > DKCR is absolutely f***ing amazing.

(+) Yeah! (+)

The game is beautiful, in music, graphics, and level design. It precisely nails how difficult a game should be. Lots of collectibles, but they're rarely obtuse to find and add both to challenge and exploration.

The few levels I played of DKCR were better than I ever remembered the DKC-series being. Retro Studios is a quality company, and hopefully Nintendo will continue letting them help in other series of theirs.

amazing game

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

I really can't imagine any other developer having a higher average quality of their games than Retro Studios.

Though admittedly, that list is short and 3/4 of it is one series.

4/5 if you count their MK7 involvement.

It won mine, and that's all that counts

Incredibly good video game

Just beat 5-K. Blast and Bounce (with all the jiggys). A bunch of bouncy tires and rotating barrels.

F*** that level.

pretty much

Tbh, I enjoyed it must more than I have Rayman Origins so far. The only improvement I would make off the top of my head is just formally getting rid of the very forgiving lives system.

Yeah, I agree that the balloons system is kind of silly. It only really serves as a banana coin sink and way to lose all your puzzle pieces on the K stages if you take a really long time.

Terrible game, DKC should have stayed dead so that we wouldn't have to deal with a fourth awful game.

that's only okay if you have a user name like r_spiders_link

it is also why we need a downvote system

I just legitimately do not have fun with DKC games and do not see the appeal of them.

I was about to explain why the game isn't good but then it would seem like I was on gerbil's side so nevermind, perfect game

'he says listen to my story this maybe are last chance' - ertyu quoting Tidus

The level design is really good, and the graphics are pretty nice with beautiful pre-rendered cutscenes. But the game is ultimately an extremely simple platformer, so that's not going to appeal to everyone.

Also, the only levels I found particularly difficult, barring mirror mode which is a pain in the ass, were Muncher Marathon and whatever the Cliffs extra temple level is called.
