I kinda wanna play this now. Also, I think where there was a treasure chest by the bridge with the Jinjo, there might have been a Shock Jump pad hidden under that...

So how are you supposed to open the chest? What if you fired eggs at it?

C-Euro posted:This hack rules so far but yeah I do not miss the original Note collection rules at all. IMO that was one of the best changes going from the first game to the second one. I though the original note collection rules were because they didn't have SRAM space to store them. So they were papering over that fact. You'll note that in Tooie, notes are almost always found in nests (groups of 5).

EDIT: Also, Banjo-Kazooie uses a 4-kilobit (yes, kilobit - that's .5KB) EEPROM to save its data. Banjo-Tooie uses a much bigger EEPROM - 16Kbit (4KB). So that's an additional consideration. SECOND EDIT: DK64 also uses a 16Kbit EEPROM for saves. Quackles fucked around with this message at 21:54 on Dec 3, 2020 |

This game is amazing, but there are a few pain points later on. • Tricky platforming challenges like this • Heavy (perhaps too heavy) use of whipcrack vines and clouds of bees (which interrupt Banjo's moves and can only be killed with the Wonderwing) • A few bottomless pits in some particularly obnoxious sections - which can make you lose an entire level's notes. May I recommend busting out the save states? Just in case. (I did.)

Oh man, I beat the game on version 1.2. It's good to know that 1.3 is out. Btw, looking at the patch notes, it seems 1.3 also fixes a few other unfortunate pain points later on, so I do recommend getting it. But yeah, I'm looking forward to once you find Mumbo in Castle Town.

The last 5 notes are in the Temple of Time 2nd level. There's a hint about how to get there in the dungeons. Also I admit I loved the Rickroll If you sit around there long enough, it segues into Robo's theme from Chrono Trigger.

Nice job finding all the notes and jiggies in Death Mountain! A few tips: • Conserve your golden feathers! You're going to have to do that trick you did with the bees again later on. • Fun fact: If you update to version 1.3, that steep slope you had to slide down twice becomes climbable with Talon Trot. A number of other pain points are fixed. Cythereal posted:Agreed. The hack is really impressive and I'm enjoying the LP a lot, but holy gently caress does the game itself look unfun to play. It's not unfun, but you have to like exploring and poking your nose everywhere. At the start, each individual world took me about 1 1/2 hours to clear. By the end of the game, that figure had become closer to 2 or 2 1/2 hours. There were a few obnoxious bits towards the end, notably situations where you can be in trouble if you run out of golden feathers or eggs or Mumbo tokens. I used save states and GS codes to get past a good number of those... Quackles fucked around with this message at 11:12 on Dec 24, 2020 |

Wow, congrats on getting the ice slide thing and the bees at the top of that Talon Trot ramp in one try! In the latter case, I kept getting interrupted before I could go into Wonderwing and the bees killed me. (The 1.3 patch removes them.)

I think the idea with Bird Cliff is that you're supposed to only dodge the birds (there is enough time to go past them if you wait for them to do the 3-snap and go quickly afterwards, I think).

Nice job so far! For the tenth jiggy, check the large pipe just by Jabu-Jabu's tail. If you could somehow destroy the Whipcrack on top... For the green Jinjo, don't overthink it. Stand to the right of the pipe, then jump as hard as you can. It may take many tries. I've recorded a video on how to get the Jinjo, though it took me about ten more tries than are shown.

Wow, nice job with the high dive! I admit I just used save states  I'm just going to make a note that there's still a Mumbo Token in that pipe in Zora's Domain, just in case you need it later. And yeah, Lake Hylia and the Water Temple is meant to be the 7th level, not the 6th.

Nice job with the climbing tower! There's another Mumbo Token hidden in the upper left corner. Regarding the race, it turns out jumping while using the running shoes (not counting the trick where you can keep them longer) slows you down just a hair. So it's best to run all the way. (I had to figure this out to get the Mario Kart jiggy.) Seriously, though, Mark should add, like, 3 seconds to his timers. The ferris wheel jump with the Running Shoes is wack, and it's a pity the wheel is subject to the alpha bug. (The struts of the ferris wheel are being treated as having a transparent window between them - but the layers for alpha are... drawn out of order or something. So Banjo and Kazooie are covered up by the window. I'm not a graphics expert.) So yeah, bleh. I used savestates for that. ...I'm sorry if the Mumbo Token signposting is getting annoying. I'm just trying to save you a certain annoyance where I didn't have enough later on. Quackles fucked around with this message at 02:36 on Jan 7, 2021 |

Quantum Toast posted:That ferris wheel seems like it'd be reasonable enough without the graphical glitch (and maybe one more jump pad near the top). I think that door is one of the pyramid doors in Gobi's Valley... and I suspect it's easier to get through when the door is vertical, rather than horizontal.

I predict the forest temple is gonna be 4+ episodes to get everything. Also, I honestly enjoyed Grunty's Revenge. Though, I did get it from a friend for a very favorable trade, so I didn't spend '30 quid' for it or any such. That might be coloring my interpretation.

Geemer posted:That climb to the Dark Link room is such a pain. I never found another way to get up there other than try a dozen times with the talon trot. Same. Note that the waterfall pit is not a warp pit. If you fall in there, you lose all your notes and have to start the level over! Sadly, as far as I know there's no alternate route to the other side. PS: Don't forget the Mumbo Token on the flagpole!

Procrastine posted:I'm not ashamed to say I looked up the intended solution for the slope room when I played this. It involves knowing about a weird quirk of steep surfaces where starting a backflip quickly after landing lets you jump off without sliding, which lets you get a bit more height than Talon Trot jumping and barely reach the ledges. Very well telegraphed, thanks Kurko I'm sorry, what? I had no idea. I'm calling that bad design.

Someone mentions the 'intended' way to get it upthread, which I think isn't worth your time. I got it with a pair of frame-perfect Talon Trot jumps. Save states were involved.

Niiice. One thing I think the game doesn't signpost properly is that on that path of stone columns, the bottom-most stone has a hidden switch on it. There's probably a hint for that, but I never found it.

Wow, nice job on having enough gold feathers when you got to bee-guarded Shock Jump pad! When I played, I had run out of gold feathers and had also used up all the ones in the level. I refused to exit the level and lose all my notes (you have to get to Mumbo's by riding that carpet, and some notes are only available either while transformed or once you've done stuff while transformed), so I ended up GameSharking in more gold feathers instead.

I've found that the author usually (not always) tends to group notes in clumps of 5. So, a good rule of thumb is, when you're getting the notes from a location, "Did I just grab 5 notes from right around here?" Of course, that does require you to be paying attention to distribution each and every time you collect notes, and it occasionally doesn't hold. So it's a bit of an ask.

So, remember how Brentilda said there's a hint in the green tent as to the flight pad switch? It took some doing, but I finally found it.  Here is Banjo in the back of the tent. If we go into first person mode...  ...the hint is behind the crate! I didn't find that even though I combed the game world really carefully. (I also didn't notice there was a boulder enemy at the top of the waterfall even though I was up there as the broom a lot.) I give this one a verdict of Hey, That's Not Fair. Also, to get deeper into the Temple of Time, some of the columns can be climbed. There's a hint to this in the dungeon, I think. Quackles fucked around with this message at 02:12 on Feb 4, 2021 |
