The backtracking and huge worlds just feels overwhelming, and some levels like Terrydactyland are just plain unpleasant to explore thanks to the visuals and music. I loved Tooie as a kid, but as I get older I have a lot less patience for it.
PIXEL PUZZLE PIECE BANJO UPDATE
In my next update we'll get through some murky waters and avoid getting chomped. Thankfully, it is a game for me, and so much more. Overall, I found TTC as immersive and pleasant as I remembered it to be if someone is playing through the game for the first time, and they still aren't enjoying themselves after this level, it is clearly not a game for them. I also had a surprisingly tough time finding my groove on Nipper's claw attack patterns I may or may not have gotten a life lost on that one. Thankfully, there are only a few sections with required swimming, as the rest of the time you'll be fleeing to the shore to avoid Snacker. Unfortunately, it's an N64 game which means swimming controls are mediocre. It's one of those little touches that showed how Rare would go above and beyond. The lighthouse is one of the most awe-inspiring sections of the game, where you can climb to the highest point and not even hear music, just the sound of wind and waves. There's just enough to do that you can run around and explore freely, but never so much that it feels overwhelming or padded out. I always describe Banjo-Kazooie as a game where each world feels like a compact little sandbox, or amusement park, and TTC exemplifies that perfectly. Oh, and the shark that swims in the ocean and tries to eat you every time you go in.
PIXEL PUZZLE PIECE BANJO CODE
The music, the vibrant island atmosphere, the cheat code sand castle and the introduction of flight make this one of the most memorable sections of Banjo-Kazooie. This is a level twice the size of Mumbo's Mountain, and for my money, one of the best levels in the game. Hope there isn't a level that's particularly rusty. I forgot a few things like getting the Beak Buster before going to the Witch Switch and that you have to leave one of the spinning heads next to Mumbo there to access the Honeycomb Piece, so I ended up having to go back and forth a bit. Still, it's a pleasant enough level that introduces you to the game nicely enough. A legitimate ding on Kazooie is its underuse of the transformations, as the termite transformation is really only used to get a Jiggy at the top of a mountain both in the level and outside it (and a Honeycomb if you aren't skilled enough to get it without it). jarring now, to say the least, and mostly acts as a way to turn the player character into a smaller animal that can navigate certain terrain a bear and bird can't, and be small enough to go through holes. Here you're met with Mumbo, a character whose portrayal is pretty. It's surprisingly short, but perhaps that's a good thing as otherwise it might just feel like an overextension of the same type of setting as Spiral Mountain. Spiral Mountain acts as a tutorial for the game's basic movement mechanics, but Mumbo's Mountain is really more of a tutorial for how you will actually play the game and interact with its worlds collect Jinjos, get moves from Bottles, interact with NPCs, etc.
