Отзывы пользователей
Banjo Tooie was my childhood. I absolutely loved that game, and still do to this day. There is just something inherently fun about collecting and unlocking stuff that seems to have translated into my love for metroidvania games today. So back when I head that a spiritual successor was in the works, I was absolutely stoked. Of course I bought it first chance once it came out, played it and... got so frustrated with the game that I stopped playing in world 2.
Now I wanted to give this game a fair chance again, and actually play through it. And not just that, but 100% complete it. And exactly that I did. So now, after having seen everything that the game has to offer, I have to say that I do not like it. Near the end it really hit me, realizing how so many things in the game are just unfinished.
There is too much wrong with this game for me to put into words here, but I will try to give a quick summary.
Now, not everything in this game is bad. There were things in this game I genuinely enjoyed, and a bunch of pagies were actually fun to get. But all that is quickly drowned out by the issues that you do run into. It sadly does not really matter if 90% of a game is great when 10% of it is utterly frustrating.
Here are (most of) my issues:
1. The Camera. My god, the camera. This is definitely the biggest issue. The autocam is... not good, so I quickly switched to manual cam, which is better. Sadly often times your camera is stuck in auto cam anyway, for instance while you are flying. Other times the camera object just clips through a wall or the ground and gets stuck there, giving you a super weird viewing angle. And that happens often. I want to be able to look around as I am exploring, and see more than just the character. The camera is generally too close to the character as well.
2. The controls. The game feels really weird to control. It is genuinely hard to explain it, but a lot of mechanics just feel strange to control, almost like you are on ice or something. Flying especially is weird, where steering left and right just turns your character left and right, instead of making you fly in the direction you are pointing in. Walking is fine but pretty much everything else feels unsatisfying or even frustrating in some way.
3. Now, this is something that I don't even know how to address, but I struggled with knowing where my character was in relation to other things, especially while in the air. The dropshadow seems hard to see a lot of the time, and when you are in the air it is really hard to tell if you are in front of, behind or directly above something. This was not super bad, generally, but a lot of moments of a little bit of frustration still add together quickly.
4. Some pagies are really, really frustrating to get. Such as stuff that is reliant on the game's weird physics, especially while on a strict timer. Some of them just take too long to get, like the race in the last world. The minecart levels are also really frustrating in later worlds, to a point where I just cheated my way through the last one because I wanted to get it over with.
5. Speaking of cheating, the only other time I cheated in the game was during the last boss fight. Now, I would consider myself a pretty calm guy. But... my god, that fight is just plain bad. By which I mean that it is just genuinely terribly designed. Nothing about it is fun. Especially with the issues I mentioned before, where it is hard to tell where you are in relation to other things + the terrible camera. I also had wished to see a fight that would cleverly use the mechanics that you already ran into during the game in a satisfying way, where you'd have to use a bunch of them in different ways to deal with the boss. That would have been super satisfying. But instead it's just a couple of phases of mostly the same stuff, where it is also strangely unclear what you even have to do. They also, for some reason, decided to make that bossfight WAY, WAY harder than the entire rest of the game.
6. The game does not respect your time. There are no warp points or anything. So if you want to go anywhere in the game, you have to walk. No teleport to certain worlds, and no teleport to certain areas within worlds. There are also certain points where dying means you have to start from the very beginning again. Having additional respawn points would be very nice (which is an issue I had with Banjo Tooie as well). Some collectibles are also absurdly hard to find. Like, really, hiding a couple of quills right at the entrance of the world, which you have to break free with the transformation, which you can access at the other side of the world? It is just a waste of time and does not feel satisfying. Overall the game should have made sure there were less moments that felt like "Ugh, finally I found it, jesus christ" and more like "Hey, there it is! Nice!". It is also beyond me why the progress in worlds is not saved with a lot of things. If you collect a pagie, that is saved of course. But if you, for instance, collect a pagie piece, that is not saved. Collecting a ghost writer is saved, but then doing part of a bigger task, like giving one of five snowman their hat, is not saved.
7. This is a bit of a strange issue, but the worlds feel... too big? I'd rather have smaller worlds that are interesting and easy to traverse than a huge world where I spend a full hour circling around trying to find that last quill that someone decided to hide somewhere in a hidden nook around the edge of the map. May be a bit nitpicky though
I have seen they are working on a remake of this, and that did look somewhat promising so far. At least they are adding warp points, and it sounds like they did make some good changes in regards to causing less frustration and wasting the player's time less. So... if you were thinking about getting this game right here... maybe wait for the remake?
If all you want to do is casually stroll through the worlds, get what you want and not worry about everything else, and never ever fight the final boss, then this game is pretty decent and I am sure you will have fun with it. If you want to do anything else, maybe keep your hands off of this one, and see if the remake is any better.
I'm in Moodymaze Marsh and losing the will to play.
Brimming with the charm of classic Rare, but not so much when it comes to gameplay.
Listen, I love Banjo-Tooie. So when I say the levels in Yooka-Laylee are too big (before you expand them), it's serious business. This game peaks at world 1. Places are so big that you can easily pass by NPCs.
Many challenges can be sequence broken (maybe?) too easily,
The last ball/seed puzzle in Moodymaze Marsh is ridiculous. Pushing the ball through the windy maze is bad. Very bad.
Streamlining learning new moves with Trowzer is nice....when you can find him.
The enemies are recycled through the whole game, and aren't satisfying to attack.
I appreciate the effort that went into this, but the results are all over the place. There is a lot of fun to be had, but also a lot of frustration and confusion.
I think the game is definitely worth considering in its own right 80% is about right on score, but enjoyment is definitely higher. It captures some of the magic from Banjo Kazooie: music, character designs, jokes, puzzles, maneuvers, etc....as the original developers of that game worked on this game too. If you enjoyed that series you will probably enjoy this series. I'm really glad they brought this to PC, instead of heading over to the console only route. Game runs well and looks good overall. The 'Cashino' is hands down the best book world in the game!
The remake is coming in the near future and based on all the Dev commentary it is shaping up to be a pretty good expanded and revised game. I appreciated their candor and responsibility when talking about some of the issues this game has...so I was kind of aware of some of that before buying.
Cons: camera angles/lack of control, lack of custom keybindings, swimming and flying mechanics are bad, not having skills will block game progression quite a bit as a limited number of worlds total does not give player anywhere else to go to try their luck if they end up stuck on a challenge. Not enough environmental variety (these are still very large worlds to their credit...but if you don't like swamps you might have to deal with it for a bit lol. Quizzes block game progression (no quiz = no access to the next world), quills lose their purpose once you have all skills (with a small quota exception at the end), Scale of game is sizable but is not fully filled with challenges, collectibles, etc. sometimes you really feel like the devs wanted to put something at a location but decided not to...perhaps in favor of time or focus elsewhere...example: there is an entire water area that you will move through in the ice book world that has next to nothing going on save for some alien jelly fish and a few access points to special areas...exploration feels a bit fruitless in those situations...but you know I still feel like doing it anyway lol.
Altogether I understand why the Developers want a second crack at the game, and I wanted to support that development. I am confident they will have an excellent remake this time around. Mind you, I still enjoyed the game for what it was, cheers! Whether you wait for the remake or not is up to you.
banjo-kazooie but better
I'm reviewing this before Yooka-Replaylee comes out and the wave of (justified) angry fans make my opinion be marked as bomb review.
The devs did a very poor job on this game. I had to use a game save file just to skip the intro because it crashed the game every time I tried to play. The graphics are generic at best, the puzzles kinda boring but the main issue is the lack of enemies. Most of the maps feel like a barren wasteland and 90% of the enemies are the same with different skin. Even the first levels on BK had more diverse enemies. How about enemies that:
-throw projectiles
-fly
-come from the grownd
-charge at you at full speed from far away
-use elemental attacks to hit you
See? Is no that hard to think some variety.
I bought this game pre-release, and even bought the sountrack expecting to hear that blessful tune calle jungle challenge from David Wise, but they didn't bother to include it.
I put my hopes an dreams on this company back in the day and I got nothing but dissapointment. Now the devs are going to re-launch the game with some improvements and charge full price for it. They say the original owners will get a dicount but what's the point? Graphical improvements, better animation and more puzzles won't make the maps feel less sterile.
I own many games on steam which had some relaunches and remastered versions over time including small indie devs that trully care for their playerbase and put said re-releases for free to all their game owners. And then you have playtonic, expecting you to pay for the same boring game once again.
If you really want a true platform experience check a hat in time, frog gun, or even some small but fun N64 like platforms that are avalibe, because the Rare we all loved died long time ago. It's spirit isn't at the current Rare or at Playtonic...
its better with a controller or just playing on an xbox fyi
pc is good too
i love chameleons and bats
yay
Bought for coop. Found out coop means the second player can basically spectate as a bumble bee
If you can manage endless puns, then this game is your retreat from "Spyro". It's a level-adventure game where you collect items, fight monsters, unlock abilities and find things within stages. Some of the jokes are a little bit adult humor, however game overall is pretty kid friendly. This game came out years ago, I actually played it for awhile on the switch. It does have co-op multiplayer.
"HEY MA! THEY ACTUALLY MADE BANJO-THREEIE BUT ITS MEDIOCRE AND THEY REPLACED THE BEAR AND THE BIRD WITH A FREAKIN' BAT AND LIZARD THING!"
If you like Spyro The Dragon, then you will like this game
I'm not sure what the top positive review for this is on about but I can guarantee you that this game DOES NOT have the same magic as Banjo-Kazooie, the characters are NOT funny at all, they are actually extremely annoying and I have no idea how this is the same composer because the music is mediocre and not memorable at all.
But most important of all, this game is BORING. There are few games that I have regretted not being able to refund and this is one of them, I really wish I had played less than 2 hours to be able to get my money back. And I got it on sale.
While the visual charm of the Banjo Kazooie games is there the gameplay is lackluster
Besides the god awful camera in this game, Yooka-Laylee is a really solid and underrated 3D platformer! I highly recommend it if you’re into that genre.
Plus, it makes me wanna try out Banjo-Kazooie!
A decent game, fun but annoying too. looking forward to remake.
Not entirely playable. Controls are mostly fine however when speaking to NPC's both selecting "Yes" and "No" act as "No", so I cannot buy anything or start any challenges.
i actually already have this game on switch but it's controls feel a little messy and thought i'd come over to pc before Replaylee comes out here and the switch succesor whatever it ends up being named to see if i can see how good ~~(or bad depending on perspective but i digress)~~ the controls are here which switch controls seem a little better compared to pc but maybe it's just me not being used to mouse and keyboard funnily enough i actually was working on my own BK/YL characters around when Replaylee was announced though more of an origin story then an actual game but i'd love to try and make their own game but that's future me's thing
ugly ass graphics
This game is pretty good, the only gripe I had were the Dr Quack quizzes which were quite annoying so I had to look up a guide for them.
I only got an hour in before i lost interest. Would i bail on Banjo as well if i were to try to play those games again? I don't know, but this just did not hook me. It felt like caricature - all the same general pieces as Banjo, but just not that fun for some reason.
Fun game. I beat it. Too short.
Missing just a little bit more of everything. More worlds. More character dialogue. Needs a little bit better map design. A little bit more and it could capture all of the Banjo Kazooie magic. If Banjo Kazooie was 10/10, this is 7.5/10.
Just fun! Excellent homenage to N64's Banjo!
Yes
Everything is annoying
not good
Mediocre at best
Wtf is with the hate against this game? From actual Banjo-Kazooie fans too, yikes. Game is great! Has the same feel and magic as the original Banjo games, not as many worlds but you can EXPAND each of the worlds, so they became like as big as 2 worlds back in the old games. So it cancels that issue out lol. Characters are funny, graphics are actually pretty nice, and music is from the same composer. Honestly, what's not to love? Game doesn't have THAT bad reviews, but it deserves even more positive ones, so here's mine.
good
I find it tedious and chaotic trying to figure out where and what i’m supposed to be doing next.
Difficulty is definitely higher than I expected.
If you have kids that get frustrated easily by games, I definitely do not recommend this game.
For what I played, it’s well optimized and looks very beautiful.
Worst.Camera.Ever.
Yooka-Laylee is a spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie.
So if you are a fan of collectathon 3D-platformers then you should enjoy this.
Just keep in mind to make sure you collect as many "Pagies" as possible especially before the last stage. New stages dont unlock if you dont collect enough Pagies. And for the last boss you need 100 Pagies.
Im personally not a fan of games that dont allow you to progress unless you go back to collect a bunch of stuff.
Loved the Banjo series. A great spiritual successor to the Banjo games of old (minus the Jinjos, lol)
A soulless remake of N64 platforming without any of the heart of the things it was inspired from. Worlds feel massive, empty, copy-paste assets sprinkled about, and direction is difficult to find.
This is not a critique mired in nostalgia, A Hat in Time captured the joy of that era and kept me going until I 100% it. This I dropped in 2 hours. It's clear platforming and collectathons still have something to offer me, this one was just not good.
Now they are remastering or re-releasing it again, to what end? I dunno, to take more of your money rather then actually breathing life into their first game? I'm skeptical to hand over any of my hard earned money to them now. It's clear the developers are missing the heart to make a product they want to stand behind.
I had a really fun time playing this game a while back. I didn't experience any problems, and it used to be a nice game with great potential. Sure, it had its problems with some of the levels beeing way too huge, and players loosing track of their progress, but overall it was a very fun experience. I can see that people are still struggling with these problems, but instead of fixing them, the developers decide to release the fixes as a brand new game.
Adding a world map, challenge counter, fixing the controls and adding some other additional content doesn't justify the release of a new game. This should've been patched into this original game, instead of beeing released as a "remake". It kinda makes me frustrated because "Yooka and the impossible lair" is one of the best 2D platformers I've played, and I had respect for Playtonic as a game studios.
I played this game years ago on a rinky-dink laptop that could barely handle the game. Regardless, I tried to enjoy it as much as I could. Eventually it got to a point where it felt aimless and I completely lost direction of where I was supposed to go. Now I see they're remaking the game and ignoring all the bugs that riddle the original? Feels weird and greedy. This game is something I really wish I liked but it ended up being boring and confusing.
I really do love this game. It's not perfect but I enjoyed every second of it, and after having beat it some months ago really want to play it again! I'm waiting for Replayee to do that though...
It was like re-living the old banjo kazooie!
Just skip the final boss and the rest of the game is pretty enjoyable
The game can't be updated due to "CONTENT CONFIGURATION UNAVAILABLE" error in Steam!!! The game's Discussions section is full of complaints about this but the developer doesn't move a finger to fix it! Steam support's usual recommendations (clear cache / change download region) also doesn't work as I only have the problem with this game - all other downloads are fine.
What worked for me was to uninstall the game completely and then reinstall it as recommended by Pausitive. I was hesitant to try this before because I didn't want to lose the game forever in case the download problem would never be fixed...
Anyway, I was finally able to update the game and get it running but I wasn't impressed with the wonky camera (or PoV - point of view) movements when there is an object nearby. This makes even the simplest moves so much harder. I might be able to get used to it later on and will update the review if I do.
Feels very janky, like the environments are too large and without barriers, instead of the tighter focused N64 areas of Banjo Kazooie.
If you loved the Banjo Kazooie franchise, this really does scratch that itch surprisingly well. There's a lot of homage to the games of that era, with a lot of new and innovative stuff as well. Really fun game!
I love this game so much. It's a wonderful spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie with great music, nice graphics, and fun gameplay. The rextro mini games could use a little rebalancing though.
This is a great game for those who liked the old N64 Banjo & Kazooie games from Rare.
really makes you feel like a Yooka-Laylee
Feels just like a game from 1997!
Game Refuses to install and developer never looks at there "Discussion" page.
This is the Rare game we always needed in our lives, shame I found it years after it came out but it's a genuine treat.
I love the idea of level expansion as well, wild that this is the only platformer I've seen utilize it like this, excellent all around!
An N64 style "Collectathon" platformer made as a spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie by the same team! If you loved those games, chances are you'll like this one too. If not, then it simply isn't for you.
