I know that there is a lot of room for interpretation in much of what has been said about this game, I just wanted to get this opinion out there before anything was pinned down. Regarding the minecart sections, I did not dislike the minecart sections from DK64, but I think it would have been much mo...

I think that most people would agree that Banjo Kazooie is a far superior game to Donkey-Kong 64, and in preparation for Yooka-Laylee's release, I went and replayed both of these old platforming gems. I also got my hands on a copy of Conker's Bad Fur day, and I might be referencing that a bit throug...

We all remember how awesome it was when Mumbo came out during the end credits of Banjo-Kazooie and revealed Banjo-Tooie and the stop n' swop, and personally, I'm hoping they do the same thing here. I know that a lot people have already posted that they hope a stop n' swop like mechanic is being plan...

Tooka-Laylee. I'm calling it right now. The sequel shall be dubbed Tooka-Laylee.

I like the fourth wall breaking as it was used for those cheeky lines in Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie, but let's please not have another L.O.G situation. The way it was used so heavily in Nuts and Bolts just completely butchered the opening.

Keeping with tradition, I definitely think there should be some clothes, at least on Yooka. I love the Hawaiian shirt idea, and I even think giving Laylee a hat might not be so bad either. The comments from NPC's and the functionality brought from the backpack just enhanced the original games so much.

The best voice mumble was Rubee from Banjo-Kazooie's Gobi's Valley hands down. And I agree that the mumbles from the original games were by far the best.

A full set of nine worlds! Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie set that standard, and it would just be a shame to fall short of that now.

I highly agree with the concerns expressed in the original post. To me, nine levels is standard for a Banjo-Kazooie game, and the spiritual successor shouldn't have any lower standards. I get that these levels expand, but it's the major thematic differences between the worlds that makes them so much...
