Second try for Polly in Monster Prom (failed the first time) and even got her secret ending :toot:

But also :confuoot:

I'm pretty sure there's multiple event chains that result in secret endings per character

Yeah the end screen shows there's like 1000+ different interactions and events and stuff.

Becuase I've gone for both Polly and Miranda so far though, I have seen the scene with the goths every time :v:

it's starts off quite strong but the level gimmicks get less and less fun as the game goes on imo

the atmosphere in dkc3 is cool but the game chops your movement in half by never letting you build up as much momentum as dkc2 and getting rid of the higher bounce when you hold jump and it locks a ridiculous amount of content behind some really obnoxious collectibles that you'll never want to be assed with getting

I think DKC3 is probably the weakest of the original 3, but I DO like how every single level in 3 has some unique gimmick that isn't really repeated in other levels. The first two do something similar but not quite to the extreme degree that 3 does.

I think the monsters care about both your stats and your relationship with them for the final check. So if you spread out your stats Polly is more likely to reject you than if you pump Fun. I think. It's not really clear.

I put a ton of fun into my stats and got like 28 so I had no issues with Polly in that regard but I also think I answered all her choices correctly. I tried for Miranda and I'm not sure what stat she wants but I assume charm. I got a lot of charm but I hosed up just about every interaction with her so I failed there.

I tried for Miranda again and somehow accidentally got LIAM interested and NO THANK YOU. I took myself to prom

I never played any of the adventure mode maps in Hyrule Warriors back on the wii, anything I should know in advance of diving into those? Should I go ahead and complete the story first?

Story first is probably a good idea, the early adventure map battles are doable with low level characters but they ramp up quick and expect you to be decently leveled.

Once you're past the three way split in the story mode I think you have all the items, so it's just character unlocks past that. Though I think there may have been some character specific squares in adventure mode.

the banana birds are dumb but iirc the only thing locked behind them is the true ending which is just a cutscene, which is also the only thing you need DK coins for

I maintain that the original DKC games are extremely unpleasant in terms of aesthetic and audio (the music is good but the sound effects are horrid). Its why I never wanted to play them as a kid.

that doesn't even get you an actual ending

you need the bonus coins to get the levels in the lost world so you can get all the dk coins

you need the dk coins to get the gyrocopter

you need to get the gyrocopter to get all the banana birds

you need the banana birds to actually get an ending and not just have another random fight where k. rool escapes after fighting him again and again

Its release period suggests EA wanted it to fail. Possibly to make it easier to acquire Respawn if you want to get :tinfoil:.
