Diddy's Kong-Quest

What? I knew the subtitle, but it apparently has taken 20 years to get the pun.

I think Donkey might be the honorific title. Like Czar or Caesar.

Since Cranky was Donkey Kong I and The current one is (was) DK Jr. At least according to the rich DKC lore where Cranky was the First Born and Diddy is the furtive pygmy.

Man, if you wanna talk about Aquatic Ambiance, hit me the gently caress up. Love that track.

I prefer Stickerbrush Symphony (The original, not the... thing Smash Bros claims it is) or Forest Interlude

Wave of destruction wherever DK goes? I didn't know that the director of "annual apocalyptic movie that causes people with scientific backgrounds aneurysms" made a video game.

I always thought the glacier was worse than kremcroc, that was a nice breather after barrels in a blizzard.

I really never got into 3 after multiple attempts. Just too much junk to plow through to complete the main game. Instead of plot coupons to unlock a bonus area, macguffins were needed to progress in the game. And then some other arbitrary event flag would need to be triggered to get to some other zones.

2's the best, the only thing they did wrong was the horrible mangled downgrade they did to Funky's theme.

So out of interest: How many people have not spotted the pun in DKC2's title in the 20+ years it has been out?

Maybe 10 minutes before ChaosArgate.

So, little fun thing the game shows but doesn't exactly tell. All the fortifications and kooky machines and such the Snowmads are building up into stages for DK to crash through? If you look carefully in the background on occasion, you'll see them cannibalizing their landing fleet for the materials. Basically, they're moving in and to hell with anyone in the way.

I can't remember if it was Viking or Mongol or something, but at least in Legend some warlord would torch their ships. No surrender or escape. If you want to get home you rip a boat out of some poor fools house or something.

Yeah, no probs. Started throwing together some lists. Grabbed ones I was already familiar with. I'll throw on new ones as I find them.

Stickerbrush has this weird thing for me. It seems like the barrels move in time with the beat (or it just mellows me out) so the shots are easier.

The Brawl remix of Stickerbrush Symphony is really weird to me because while it's a good song, I don't think it's a very good Stickerbrush Symphony remix for some reason.

It really rubs me the wrong way. It starts out great, starts hitting odd notes, then just implodes at the 1:30 mark.

Don't the originals need to hold the button to carry? Or did I just do that out of habit?

I was expecting the baseline from Stinkfist or 10000 days to kick in to the rhythm of the hut.

I am very disappointed.

So I started a fresh file of DKC3, because I already did a runthrough of 2 to play along with the thread. I am 100%ing as I go.

So much hate. All of my hate.

Nothing could convince me to do what you're doing. I think I've tried playing DKC3 3 or 4 times, but just can't enjoy it enough to see it through.

The only other game that got that much effort in vain was Secret of Mana.

What about Secret of Mana made you quit?

It's very hard to explain. Very simply I didn't enjoy its system. Any further explaination would need me to play it again

He was just protecting his home. The Tikis icing him like that was pretty severe. Hopefully once the Tiki-Kong relations thaw up a bit from their current frosty level he can come back in from the cold. Although I will admit that chances of that happening are bleak absolute zero.

Fixed a minor typo.

If DK is the champion (and presumably high priest) of the Moon Gods, does this make his island empire a theocracy?

In the same way North Korea is a theocracy. Just a cult of personality where everyone is too terrified of what he did to the cyborg elephants to call him out.
