The bosses were definitely an improvement over returns, though i disgress there was a little nitpick i didnt like.

In Returns, your main target is the Tiki's, so after beating a boss, you get a cutscene of them getting rekt before the Tiki comes out, meanwhile in TF the last hit on the Viking bosses goes directly to the multi hit because they are your primary target.

What? The characters are the Snowmads. They invaded all the islands and you're kicking them out.

Given the fact that the bosses had the insignia on them, I assumed they either came with the Snowmads or were recruited by them which justifies kicking the shit out of them

Wait till you get to the polar bear. Best boss fight + music in game and possibly any 2-D platformer.

I laughed hard when he faked me out on one of his attacks and I jumped right into it.
>>
>>257787280

The Snowmads are clearly taking over various islands and forcing them to be of use.

Mangrove Cove seems like it was the most newest Island before yours, based on the bermuda triangle with a shit load of wreckages.

World 2 is a massive woodland area housed by the Owls who are getting a shit load of Wood from the tree's as scene from the minecart in the mill

World 3 is where they use said wood from World 2 to build their ships and catch fish to use as food and weapons.

World 4 seems to be some underwater ancient electric powered rocks that's a still a mystery what's going on

And then World 5, where it goes from a Fruity jungle to the Vikings taking all the fruit, smashing them into juice, and then freezing said juice to make more Ice and giant popcicles for some fucking reason.

World 6 is where they took over DK island and made it their new home. Personally i fucking love that every single level is a different world from DKCR
>>
>>257787659
>>257787864
I know the bosses are associated with the Snowmads but those guys aren't exactly helping to take over DK Island. DK is basically beating up neutral characters.
>>257788007
I just assumed they have been living on these islands these for quite some time if they managed to build all this shit.

I love that this credits version of Stickerbrush Symphony is better than the one that plays in a couple of the levels.

>>257789403
you don't know what you're talking about. They're better in every way, freeze actually has better music than all rare dk games, and the level designs in both of them blow the original trilogy away which was mostly extremely simplistic platforming.
>>
>>257789649

Agree to disagree. Outside of the rocket levels, I feel like the retro games were dumbed down. I think Dong Freeze has the 2nd best soundtrack, with Dkc 2 being first.
>>
>>257790431
better question is why the fuck is a blowfish on their side?
>>
>>257790465
to me, they feel even better. Rare had a pretty solid feel with the first 3, but there's a level of momentum and stickiness when moving DK around that really adds to the platforming, making it weighty but satisfying. And I do love how momentum really matters in this game, building up momentum for a really long jump in some areas is really satisfying.
>>
>>257790523
Do you mean World 2?

>>257786643
The bosses are probably one of the best things about Tropical Freeze. They just feel like actual boss fights compared to Dong Returns' bosses

ironically, some of the boss fights are easier to co-op than the levels because you can actually see both players

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?

That co-op was a tertiary point of development time compared to the single player?

Maybe it's the fact that they couldn't reuse background and environmental hazards and get away with it like Rare could. For example, Rare reused assets to make small bonus barrel rooms. Retro just straight-up copied and pasted them.

It doesn't matter if they saw the issue you blockhead, the game was not designed with two players in mind. Fixing those issues would have involved a hell of a lot of work on top of the single-player, even changing how entire levels are scripted, and that's too much work for a game where co-op is just a throw-in.

While we're on the subject of DKRC, how many times have you finished Mirror Mode? I've finished it three times, once on the original game, twice on the 3DS, and am working on a fourth time also on the 3DS. Jagged Jewels is a bitch, though.
>>
>>257795897
I also wasn't a fan of how most of the puzzle pieces were hidden. Either you had to collect every banana in a specific area (which was kinda tedious since there were bananas fucking everywhere and you would have to stop and check each area to find em all) or you had to complete a bonus room, all of which were, once again, collect every banana in the room, and they were all copy pasted so you would have to repeat them often.

But at this point I'm just nitpicking, the game was amazing.

They were definitely more interested in making a unique identity for their game as opposed to being the rare games all over again. I commend them for that. They did a great job. I just wish both the kongs and the tikis/penguins had more personality.

it doesn't have to be the same level of bloated, just a huge 3d platformer

That probably has to do with keeping realistic hitboxes with their prerendered sprites and shit. The boss sizes weren't retardedly significant at least.

>>257805683
K-Rool is only about twice as big, and the only XBOXHUEG boss was the toucan bird head thing.
Donkey Kong never fought any boss in DKC2 and DKC3.

TF and W101 are definitely biggest Wii U must plays at the moment. Between 3DW and MK8, I say it comes down to personal preference. Are you desperate for a good 3D platformer, or do you want a good multiplayer game?
