Message: [QUOTE="X y b e r - S k u ll, post: 398345, member: 235510"] I definitely agree on the points you made about Mario 64. That game still to this day is the gold standard when it comes to 3D platformers, like it's actually insane to think Nintendo got it right on their first try and people are STILL taking lessons from that game almost 30 years later now. Just a shame Rare themselves couldn't take the right cues from that game for BK considering, in their own words, the final version of BK we got was directly inspired by SM64. Banjo's movement options just cannot ever compare to how fluid, yet tight and satisfying Mario's move-set in that game feels. I feel it was more of "1 step forward, 2 steps back" kind of deal between BK and SM64. Where I think BK improved on it was removing the monotony of exiting and re-entering levels to complete the next mission, whereas BK lets you do it all in one shot which is genuinely a better way to do it, it's just a shame it comes with a lot more stiff and slower movement. Still a decent game though like I said. You'll never hear me calling it a bad game by any means, I just don't think it's this masterpiece Nintendo-tubers seemed to have brainwashed everyone into thinking it is over the last 15 years or so lol. I think it's interesting you bring up DK64 because I think the biggest problems with BT come from the success of DK64 and them trying to replicate that through Banjo. I'll have to disagree with you that DK64 was better planned and developed, that game is even WORSE about certain things I dislike about BT than BT itself is, to the point I can literally only play that game now with the mod that let you switch Kongs on the fly using the D-Pad (And even then I can barely will myself to go through with a 100% completion run).
