Parasite Eve superior holiday game

Kiddy Kong was a mistake that should have been aborted

Fucking agreed. I just finished it yesterday. I feel like I finished it too soon. I usually play it around this time, but I was hoping I would end it on christmas day.
>tfw too good at the game now and everything is a joke and you finish it a few days early by accident.
I tried to play PE2 to continue the nostalgia train, but they made a HUGE mistake changing the gameplay to tank controls. I just can't stand it now.

Yeah should've just been DK instead. Be cool if the trilogy had every combination of the three Kongs.
Kiddy isn't the reason why the game isn't remembered as much as the original or 2 though.
>>321257926
What's that reason again?

N64 came out at the same time, and it was the third DK in three years.

I had them all and loved them all. I feel like no one played 3 and just have better memories of 1 & 2 since they were younger when they played them.

They'd only be a year younger though.

The music wasnt D Wise's and most people found the art to be worse. The world was open and im not sure but maybe the controls different.
Too many dks in a so small time + Different art and music+ different world map= People confused because it didnt fit their expectations.

It was one of the later games on the SNES.
But more importantly, It didn't have David Wise doing the music so the OST was noticably different and didn't match the country theme the game was going for.
The gameplay was also simplified.
best worlds
DKC3 is the best one.
It took me literally 19 years to realize this but I replied it sometime last year and it was the the undeniable truth.
Music is Diddy Kong Racing Tier but on SNES.
Art is beautiful, game is super cozy.
Controls and level design on point but its the DKC trilogy so that's a given
Animals are weaker overall but they do some neat things sometimes so there's a trade off. Best boss fights
get at me
I was stuck on ripsaw rage for the longest time
My sister saved up to buy me DKC3 for christmas one year when I was like 7, since I loved DKC and DKC2 so much.
3 was strange, while I was playing it my kid brain was like "I'm seeing the kongs but... all of this feels unnatural and off somehow"
It was a few months before I eventually noticed while looking at the art in the manuals for 2 and 3 that 3 just looks different and overall worse.
I did like some things about 3 but I couldn't shake the feeling it wasn't right somehow, that this shouldn't be what 3 is.

YOU are smalltime.

These two are way too similar. Mekanos should have been a de-forested area, there's no reason for the factory world to be so green. You could still have the giant tree level with the saw, but that would be the only green on the map. And it's getting cut down. More of a solid theme that way, and differentiates it from KAOS
>>321267541
I think that did that in the GBA remake
>>321269495
Too bad about everything else in that port
