I'm not surprised they're already well into development on their second game, but I highly doubt we'll see it being released within the next year. They still have to make the DLC for Yooka Laylee that they promised and the other Kickstarter goals as well. No one's going to care about those things if...

Hivory Towers is a masterpiece.

I really want to try doing a speed run of this game, but the thought of having to sit through around a half an hour's worth of cutscenes and dialogue is making me reconsider. I already know the story and have already seen all the characters' quotes, so they only serve to disrupt my gameplay experien...

I just played through the game again and the only mini game I had trouble with was Hurdle Hijinx. If a few challenges and your OCD about 100% completing this game are stopping you from playing it, you probably didn't like it much in the first place.

Tooie is widely considered to be the worst of the two games. Where did you get that idea? I mean, I guess its Metacritic score is a bit below Kazooie's, but if you ever poll fans of the series, Tooie usually wins, or at least comes very close. http://forums.playtonicgames.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&...

These are a few things I'd like to see in a future platformer from Playtonic. • No backtracking A cool staple to the Banjo Kazooie franchise is that you don't have to completely finish a level before moving on to the next. However, this should be done by the player's own discretion and not forced by...

Moodymaze Marsh Capital Cashino Tribalstack Tropics Galleon Galaxy Glitterglaze Glacier I really liked Moodymaze Marsh's aesthetic and music, and most of the Pagies were quite fun to collect. Capital Cashino was fun as well, and Tribalstack Tropics was a really good first world. Galleon Galaxy seeme...

I think more world variety is important, and if that means making the world smaller, then I think it's a good trade.

Nope.

Oh wow. I'm really glad they removed that voice, otherwise I'd be extremely triggered right now!

A 69 on Metacritic is actually a good rating. Most reviewers classify a 70/100 game as a good game, so the general consensus is that Yooka Laylee is a good game. Banjo Kazooie and Banjo tooie both have a 77 and a 73 score on metacritic (the hd ports), so this game is only slightly below those in ter...

So if I live in America, can I redeem my download code and play the game on the 10th?

Here's a comment I made on Reddit. For anyone who's feeling upset about the reviews for Yooka Laylee, check out the reviews for the rereleases of Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie. http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/banjo-kazooie http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/banjo-tooie Somewhere along t...

I always lol when people say Donkey Kong 64 is a generally disliked game... I mean, just look at all the critic and user reviews. http://www.metacritic.com/game/nintendo-64/donkey-kong-64 I think it's a fantastic game, but it definitely suffers in some areas from being overly ambitious. The back tra...

Yeah. I'm already a little upset that I pretty much spoiled the entire first world. I think I know the entire layout of it and where most of the Pagies are now.

I don't see this kind of game being a huge critical success, but I still think it has the potential to get generally favorable reviews. If it manages to get 75 or over on Metacritic I'd consider it a success, and as long as the game has the same genius level design as Banjo Kazooie, I think that's a...
