Why does everyone dislike this game?
>>
It's good but not as good as 2 and that makes people ornery for some reason.

Ignore them. It's a fine game.
>>
I hear the opposite. A lot of people like the game.

But all agree that they should have replaced kiddie with Donkey.
>>
I thought it strayed too far from 1 and 2.

I think it might be my favorite one. I think the reason people dislike it is because the style is changed quite a bit, and it isn't like how it was in the first two.

after 1 and 2, expectations were high
SNES was already on life support, so the bar was set even higher
as an attempt to stay fresh, the developers added gimmicks and changed the traditional methods to more RPG-ish ones (this wasn't inherently a bad thing though)

As a result, the game was very different. I doubt anyone actually truly HATES it, it's simply the worst of the three. All three are amazing games, still.
>>
Kiddy Kong is slow, cumbersome, and visually unappealing. The new animal friends of this game are lame (Looking at you, elephant)
>>
>>3218491
i've been playing this one lately because i never 100%ed it as a kid, so anyway my opinion is right. basically i think it's a visually wonderful game with tedious/uninspired gameplay. Most of the bonuses are just sad, i still don't know what the point of the dk coins are, and i have like a million useless bear tokens. there's a lot of lost potential here, one of those games where if just a few things were different it would be top 10...thanks for the thread, i've wanted to bitch about this game, i'm still at like 83% completion... gotta suck it up...

It's a perfectly fine and enjoyable game on its own but when you put it up against the first two it's definitely the weakest of the trilogy, like they used up all their ideas in the second game and were scrambling for ways to differentiate the third.

No DK, and the cool character with 90s tude was replaced with a screaming overgrown baby. Kinda lame

The settings went from tropical to fantastic to summer camp. Kinda lame

The music went from some of the best and most memorable tunes to ever grace the SNES to just meh. Kinda lame

I think they should've went for DONKEY KONG WORLD. Multiple 'worlds' spanning the globe. You start with DK, and beating each world unlocks one of your fellow kongs from imprisonment. Levels are big and multiple playthroughs are encouraged as there are plenty of secrets only certain kongs can reach

But you know what? At the end of the day DKC3 was fucking country miles better than that abomination that was DK64
>>
>>3220065
>New animal buddies weren't as interesting or useful as the ones from DKC1 and DKC2
It still got Squitter and Squawks which are a way better than the awkward to control Winky and the mostly pointless Expresso. I'm aware DKC3 didn't use Squitter and Squawks as well as DKC2 did, though (level design wise).

>Far more collectathony than the first two
I understand that collecting the banana birds were simply a painful task, but other than that it still uses the same formula as the previous game. What else makes it more 'collectathony'?

>Every level felt the need to have an overt gimmick and half of them sucked
You mean level features? Whatever you call them, they aren't really a bad idea. Games like EarthWorm Jim 1 and 2 are all about gimmicks and they are still good. I don't think they sucked either.

>Soundtrack is the weakest of the three
True, but that's like comparing your average skilled hockey player to Wayne Gretzky. In other words, it's an unfair comparison. DKC3's soundtrack has several memorable songs in it, even if it isn't as great as the others.

>Bosses were a step back from DKC2
What? How so? The bosses are one of the things DKC3 is usually considered to have done better than its predecessors.

Anyway, when talking about DKC3, people often focus on its flaws without even giving a chance to what the game did well. Think about the overworld, for instance. In DKC3, you were allowed to navigate wherever you wanted using one of the provided vehicles, and even find a secret here and there. It offered a lot of profundity and was a major improvement over the simplistic map navigation the other games had (even if it wasn't necessary). It also had the trade system with the brothers bear, a saving system where you could save whenever you wanted, and it was a longer game.
I agree that DKC3 might not have been as good as its predecessors, but I think it's a lot underrated, often having its strong points obfuscated by what set it apart from the other games.

Replacing Kiddy with Donkey would just be a cosmetic fix. The game sucks because you can't play as Diddie.

Still a good game but by far the weakest showing of the trilogy. Very disappointing.

Newsflash, people on the internet in general and especially on boards of low quality like this one are usually idiots and know they can get away with spouting this bullshit just because they can. Doesn't mean that's also what the majority thinks of it.

Donkey Kong Country 3 is a fun game but just like Yoshi's Island, a lot of fans were disappointed that it was not what they expected. That and only that is the sole reason why it's called "the worst in the trilogy". Those who actually did play it like it and even those who don't won't say it's really that terrible. Just not the same league of DKC2.

Bullshit. DKC2 was not what people expected after DKC either, as it marked a drastic change in tone and atmosphere. It was good though so it was a positive surprise.

Nobody dislikes DKC3 just because it was different. It is disliked because it was not that good. It was a let down, a negative surprise.

they weren't as bad as the early levels in dkc3

also after beating dkc2 the early levels aren't what's on your mind, it's all the great levels you went through during the course of the entire game. so naturally that's the level of quality you expect after booting up the sequel

Which is the same can be said for DKC3. DKC3 has some very innovative and fun levels and actually trumps DKC2 in a lot of aspects.

that's what I was getting at, but unfortunately a lot of people's reaction to the shitty early levels is to turn the game off without giving it a real chance

Dixie always made me feel funny. Even though she's basically Diddy with lone yellow hair I was a stupid kid. When she crouches she almost looks like she's presenting, like I a monkey in heat, and the fact she has knee pads, but not pants, only fuelled the fire. Not to mention Candy in 1.

Then they redesigned Tiny and and things got too weird. Good thing too or I might have gone full fur instead of having a healthy anime fetish like I do now.

>>DKC2 was not what people expected after DKC

Oh really? I heard from almost every place on the internet (so not only on this board) that people played the first game and actually had expectations for it because they were blown away by the first game. Same thing that happened when SMB3 and SMW released after people played SMB1 or SMB2, same with Sonic 2 after the first Sonic game became incredibly popular. Heck, every game sequel had some sort of hype going for it just before it got released that goes for both retro and modern games. Just because not every single person loved the hell out of DKC1 doesn't imply AT ALL that there were no high expectations. Yes, people were amazed at the improvements - I was one of those guys 20 years ago - and even if there were a few guys who didn't care about the first game at all they were at the very least interested in the second game. That being said, the same thing can be said about the third game. A lot of people had already switched to the playstation or the N64 and those who left had no idea.

Besides, this thread alone proves my point that most of the shitposters haven't even played the game or beat the first world of DKC3, let alone beat the final boss. Sure it's not like they are forced to beat a game that they don't seem to like but if you're just gonna give it up that quickly while not even giving the rest of the game a chance then that says more about yourself than the game. I could play the Midgar portion of Final Fantasy VII and say it plays like shit and give up after the first reactor. I can have good reasons for doing that or nog but I can be pretty sure that a lot of FF VII fans would give me shit for not giving the game a fair chance. See where I'm going here?

It used to be my least favorite game out of the trilogy when I first played it but despite that I still gave it more tries, I found out the game was more than the sum of its parts.

So much wall of text, just to harp on about one thing.

I didn't say there were no expectations of a good game with DKC2 or that DKC1 was disliked. That only happened in your head.

You claimed that the reason DKC3 is disliked by a lot of people is that it wasn't what they expected. You blamed the change in atmosphere for the hate it gets. That is nonsense. It gets hated on because it is objectively inferior to both its predecessors.

Like I said, DKC2 brought a very distinctive change in atmosphere too, it being much darker, brooding, spooky and gloomier with a very predominant pirate theme, ie not what people would reasonably come to expect after the almost serene, nature focused and very often downright relaxing atmosphere in DKC1.

It was a very good game though, so people liked it. DKC3 would've been received better as well, if it had been of higher quality.

It's terrible compared to the other DKC games. It has some nice parts to it and the controls are still tight but its flaws are so glaring, they can easily ruin the whole experience. The OST is way too bass heavy and can be really annoying, the character design is blindingly ugly, the new animal buddies aren't fun and the level design ranges from cumbersome to frustrating.

When I played it for the first time, I assumed that since it had the most complex overworld, and more gimmicks, it was automatically the best one.

It sold less copies, was made by a different team and is the only one of the three games that is wildly disliked (or highly controversial thanks to a few kooks with really bad taste).

Those are three indisputable facts that indeed make it so.
>>
>>3226539
>> It sold less copies

It was released in a time that most people switched from SNES to either N64, PC or Playstation. Besides, it was already the third game in the series and people weren't really impressed anymore by pre-rendered 2D games in 1996. Besides by that logic every Mario game is better than any Donkey Kong game because they sold more than any DKC game.

>> was made by a different team

False. The composer for DKC3 was one of the main ones from DKC1 (E. Fischer) and some tracks were from David Wise. Sutherland, the brothers Mayles and all the rest were involved with it as well.

>> the only one of the three games that is wildly disliked or highly controversial thanks to a few kooks with really bad taste

Can't say the game is wildly disliked, especially not compared to let's say Zelda 2, Super Mario Bros 2 USA or stuff like that. I also don't see any evidence about the last part of that sentene.

>> Those are three indisputable facts that make it so.

More like, "those are three claims I write here to make it look like it's real and proven even though it's all pulled from my ass". Listen man, I don't mind it that people don't like this game as much as I do and if some disagree with me than I would at least like to see some honest impressions/opinion and not some flaming bullshit that any kid could think up on the spot.

Anyway, no one else who can support evidence that DKC3 is "objectively inferior" to the other games in the series? Or is this seriously the best you guys can give?

I was so disappointed by it when it came out.

It was visually dark and aesthetically unpleasing as a whole, it didn't play especially well because it was early 3D, it wasn't at all what people had hoped for coming from the first three DKCs, and it just plain wasn't that fun. The multiple kongs with their own unique stuff gimmick was a bit interesting and it had a neat rap at the start, but it wasn't very good. The whole thing felt pretty uncoordinated too as the maps were poorly designed.

Those newer games, the 2.5D sidescrollers, those are what people really wanted. Better late than never, I guess.

There's literally dozens of good points on this thread already. The thing was a big colectathon sustaining itself on half-assed gimmicks to mask its blandness, the art style was gooofy and uninspired, the backgrounds lacked animation and effects, the soundtrack had only two or three good songs, it substituted Diddy with that moron of a character making it slow-paced in the process, the level design was mediocre and failed to effectively integrate the animal buddies the way DKC2 did, let alone the fact that it replaced Rambi with that stupid elephant whose only abilities are to pick up barrels (something the kongs do better) and shoot projectiles (something squitter and squawks do better), and don't even remind me how the game forces you to go through a marathon of that pointless Simon says minigame in order to watch the true ending which was cringeworthy to say the least.

The list just goes on and on, but I think all the people on this thread have made the message clear already.

Love the game. Played it again recently on Virtual Console and it holds up well. It's great adventure platformer.

Really funny when people lament the lack of Donkey.

The Country series was meant to revive Donkey but he was completely overshadowed by the graphics, music and superior new characters like Diddy and Dixie.

It's a step down from 2 but still good. It gets more shit than it should really.

I was so erect when I discovered the lost world as a kid for the first time.

That still doesn't make the game "objectively inferior" as >>3224832 said. It only says that there are a lot of points that you and the other posts you're referring to that make it less enjoyable TO YOU. Just like there are a lot of things in this game that are actually great about DKC3 TO ME, like the deep bass in most of the OST, the variation with Ellie the elephant, the North American atmosphere and the feeling of adventure because of the optional bear visits and unlocking the lost world of this game, Krematoa.

I can perfectly understand that you don't like the Simon Says caves, that you probably would have liked it more if Diddy or Rambi were still in it and to be honest, there are some things I personally don't like about the game that aren't mentioned in this thread - or as far as I am aware of right now - like how the hitboxes in this game are more unreliable to me than in the prequels and it could have a lot less necessary dialogue. Compare the first 5 minutes of DKC1, DKC2 and DKC3 to eachother and I can perfectly understand why it would give a bad impression of the last game. It honestly did to me as well until I decided to keep playing.

I also believe that the level design is just as good as the second game while bonuses are easier to find in general. I can't say it's more gimmicky because to be honest, even the first DKC had some "gimmick levels" as well (Tanked up Trouble, Blackout Basement, Elevator Action are a few that come to my mind) while DKC2 also relied on it like in Windy Well and Hot Balloon Ride. It's definitely a part of DKC3 but TO ME it never gets tiresome even if it might get boring FOR OTHER PEOPLE.

Was it necessary to replace Diddy with Kiddy? Personally, I don't think it was so I agree with you and others on that. Diddy was alright in the other games and they could have just re-used Donkey instead. That being said, I don't dislike Kiddy for his design or his abilities. Water hopping was fine.

You're calling it a collectathon but by that definition, the other two were as well because the game kept all your progress and everything you found with a completion percentage even though there is indeed less to collect compared to the earlier games. Super Mario World keeps track of all the level exits you completed and Yoshi's Island keeps track of a lot of things, would you call those games collectathons as well? I am curious to know.

The ending was disappointing, I completely agree with you about that. Even more can I say that about the "true ending". DKC2's ending felt more rewarding while the ending of the first game was just good enough.

To make my long written opinion short, I just want to point out it's all just a matter of perspective. I am glad that you at least did your best to describe what you dislike about the game and how exactly. I won't convince you to think otherwise and I don't need to, that's a great thing about opinions. Thanks for the reply!

Oh shoot, I meant the true ending of DKC2 more specifically. The first ending is also pretty good though.

>Multiple 'worlds' spanning the globe. You start with DK, and beating each world unlocks one of your fellow kongs from imprisonment. Levels are big and multiple playthroughs are encouraged as there are plenty of secrets only certain kongs can reach
Uh you do realize you're talking about DK 64, right?

Look bub, you can have your opinion. I won't try to change it. Still, 3 would have been a lot better had it been Donkey/Dixie instead of Dixie/Kiddy. It's just how I and a lot of others seem to feel.

The music was good, but not as good. Level design was for the most part as good as 1 and 2's, but admittedly had weaker Squitter the Spider segments and the Parry the Parallel Bird segments weren't memorable or fun either.

I just can't understand what the point of the Parry levels are.

DKC3 just has a resounding feeling like they were just going through the motions and peaked at DKC2. It felt like a downward climb from that peak. I liked it, its still a good game, it just isn't as good and could have been better.

No, really, why do you lie? Neither Gregg nor Steve worked on DKC 3. So, why do you lie like that?

The music in DKC3 was boring and undercooked. It felt like demos of unfinished songs instead of being actually good

It was a game with bright colours and at the time early 3D was just called 3D man. I don't think you played it when it got out and just let memes guide your opinion.

I bought it when it came out. If you're just realizing some people disagree with you now, maybe you weren't looking at it clearly when it came out.

I'm telling you the reasons that you're giving off to dislike it are meme reasons from a youtuber or don't exist in the first place thus leading me to believe you never played it when it came out.

Which DK3 had the better soundtrack, GBA's completely new one or SNES?

The GBA one is trash with only a couple good tracks in it. The awful sound hardware didn't allow for miracles but Mr. Wise certainly didn't even bother trying anyway.
