This game goes from a 9/10 to a 6/10 due to how fucking aggravating the camera is.

It's almost like the camera is fucking dogshit and Banjo Kazooie improved on it.

The camera is almost never actually detrimental to the experience. It provides new perspectives that enhance the 3D diorama layout. New challenges. You'll think I'm memeing but I'm not. It's a happy accident but most of these "bad" camera angles are part of what make the experience worthwhile in the end.

Wrong. The camera is actually damn decent for such an early attempt.

Specifically what parts are you having trouble with? The only parts that annoy me are pole jumping at the top of Lethal Lava Land's volcano and a few spots in Big Boo's Mansion

Nah it's just bad. Having to take a guess if i'm gonna die from something or not being able to see certain things like blue coins and having the timer run out just because the fucking shitty ass camera won't let you turn it 99 percent of the time isn't excusable.

>>5512912
the reason it won't let you turn it is because it's attached to a physical character you dummy

mario 64's camera is the one common video game complaint i see and just cant understand. i have NEVER had trouble with the game's camera, which is surprising considering how many early 3d games had such dogshit cameras. the camera provides all the angles it needs to provide and implements it in a fun way by making it a character.
maybe i dont find it bad because ive never really heavily relied on constant camera movement in video games and actually have some digital spacial awareness because im not a retard with an attention span of a ½ second.

The game literally has blindspots for no reason, it doesn't make the game more "challenging" not being able to see if you're going to fall off of a ledge or something is really fucked. Another example is the 5 secret coins you have to get in the pyramid, there's a part where you have to go to the very top, then down a sandwaterfall, below is a platform with a coin and below that is another platform. But because you can't fucking look down enough you're forced to just jump and hope you don't fall a billion feet and nearly die from fall damage. it's things like this why savestates need to exist.

3D games are shit and the number one enemy in them is ALWAYS the camera. NO EXCEPTIONS.
