Just finished this as my first Donkey Kong game and let me just say wow. I was shocked at how meaty this shit is. I genuinely got some challenge playing this I'd honestly unironically say it's harder than dark souls.
I always thought Donkey Kong games were baby mario shit with a monkey but I was wrong. DK is a fucking beast it's also super refreshing to play a Funkey Kong right after all that and whoop the games ass. I have a new found respet not only for Donkey Kong but for nintendo as a whole.
Despite marketing Dark souls is not that hard most of the time.

using dark souls as a standard of difficulty is pure concentrated reddit
Jaxon Nguyen
I have no clue how anyone found this game even remotely hard. Compared to dkc2 it's a piece of piss
Cooper Sullivan
>I have a new found respet not only for Donkey Kong but for Retro Studios as a whole. ftfy. Also best song comin thru youtube.com/watch?v=95HuSMQSUVo
Carson Ortiz
DKC2 is a harder game but also substantially shorter so you can still breeze through it in an afternoon in spite of all the deaths as long as you're not doing Lost World stuff.
I think Tropical Freeze's difficulty stands out for more people because its levels are fucking massive, death tends to set you back a lot further.
Brandon Morris
Anyone else like Returns and Tropical Freeze more than the original trilogy? I have a lot of nostalgia for the originals but replaying them I just think the new games are better platformers
Brandon Young
I really don't care.
Michael Garcia
I like the levels in TF more so I'll agree on that I havent played returns in forever so cant remember that one
Wyatt Robinson
yeah I wasn't a donkey kong fan before retro's games, I had played rare's games but found them vastly inferior to smw and yoshi's island
Cameron Diaz
How come I loved DKC 1,2 and 3 but don’t like this DKCR at all
Why don’t I like any new things anymore
Christian Adams
More than 3 anyway.
Who the fuck green lit of mice and men lenny gorilla?
it's almost like difficulty is subjective you daft faggot
Austin Taylor
No he doesn't. Anyone who appreciates Tropical Freeze for the masterpiece it is, is an honorary epic 4channer.
Noah Perry
Tropical Freeze is a very impressive game and my favorite platformer in the past decade but 2 barely edges it out for me because it doesn't have any low points, it's tight the whole way through. When TF is brilliant there's nothing else like it but it's got walls like World 4 that just kill my motivation to keep playing.
Returns is solid. It feels like a Donkey Kong game trying to do the Mario thing.
Hudson Anderson
It's easier, but it's still hard for a modern platformer which is why it's notable.
Ayden Edwards
The new games have better gameplay, the old trilogy has more SOUL. I hope they bring back that darker atmosphere to the 3rd game, and I hope there will be a 3rd game in the first place.
Evan Williams
the soundtrack is so fucking good. david wise's talent is being wasted by not having more DK games. when the FUCK are we going to get a third game?
I wish Metroid was postponed just so Retro could make another DKC
Adam Lee
I'm really hoping they were already working on it when they had Metroid dropped on their plate, I mean that was years after they finished tropical freeze. Also Miyamoto said that they're ready to work on more than one title at once years ago.
Logan Gonzalez
>Anyone else like Returns and Tropical Freeze more than the original trilogy? I don't find them very comparable. There's a different overall "feel" between the originals and the newer games, both just happen to have Donkey Kong in them. I end up liking both for different reasons.
I want to like this game but DK controls like a drunk refrigerator.
Camden Campbell
This. I hate that you can only actually play as Donkey Kong in 1/3 of the DKC trilogy. At least 2 still had Diddy, no one wants to play as this literal who
Ayden Carter
>it's harder than dark souls. dark souls isn't hard so what the fuck does that mean
Ethan Cook
I always thought it was retarded too. DK is only in the first game, and then in 3 none of the characters in the first game are even playable.
Oliver Powell
Unironically Nintendo's most underappreciated game
Juan Bennett
Why this game is so good yet nobody barely talks about it?
David Cruz
I think it's harder than dark souls also. There's some tough bosses in frozen dong
Matthew Richardson
what is there to talk about
Zig Forums is full of shitposts. how can you shitpost about this game? you're too much of a tard to use catalogue view so you never see threads for good games that are on page 3, you only look at fucktarded bait threads that have 200+ views and then you ask "why don't good games get threads?!"
Leo Morgan
Now that you've beat that go play the first two Donkey Kong Country games, they can be absolute bastards at times but they're incredibly well designed.
