it's a mediocre continuum-like

>>9771760
I prefer superior hyuckformers like banjo kazooie to yahoohoppers like mario, thank you very much.

Are 3D platformers even made anymore? This is a big fish in a very small pond.

Yes

Banjo had charm. Mario 64 was an easy going game though

>perfect the formula in 1996
>throw it all away
hmmm

>>9771760
I'll take croc on psx or Saturn thank you.

so much this. you get all these bright fun playground like levels. then all of a sudden you get to the basement and you're in actually fucking hell.

Neither it, nor anything else on that God-forsaken pile of Nintendo garbage console, are even contenders.

Mario 64 is one of those games where the more I play it, the more I like.
I honestly didn't even like it that much at the time. Rare's 3D platformers completely stole my attention during that gen, but Mario 64's high skill ceiling means the more you put in, the more you get out of it, and you don't get that so much in Banjo.

What's going on here?

With that camera? No thanks

>>9773067
The camera is wholly adequate. Complaining about it is so 2017.

I actually prefer the later levels, Idk I find the first 4 levels all pretty mediocre.

because they're more challenging? the level design really isn't much better is it?

>>9773067
In certain levels it was a bit annoying but I'f that's what puts you off playing it then you should git gud

I really like the chubby-cheek Mario design, makes him feel like a classic cartoon character.

>>9771760
Vexx is probably one of my favorite platformers.

filtered beta

it's incredibly soulful
feels like a bunch of dudes just spent some time coding the gamplay and building playgrounds then wrangled it into some sort of game
and it works
it can't be replicated because now everything is touched by a chain of "professionals" who saw off every edge

>>9771760
If you repeat something enough times, people will start to believe it.

>>9771812
Not as many as there used to be, but there's a few indie and middle market titles on PC. A Hat in Time is a pretty decent Banjo-Kazooie clone, it's better than Yooka-Laylee, though granted that's not saying much.
