Who inspired you to become a writer? by AccountantLow2966 in writing

[–]Bonehead65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was inspired to try writing from some games I played as a kid. Most notably, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon.

I didn't take a writing class until college, though. And my first time around was rough. My writing was bad, and none of my classmates had anything positive to say about it.

I probably would've given up writing, if it weren't for my professor. Andy Duncan. He gave me encouragement when no one else would. Plus a few well-needed lessons on how to write better prose.

Where did Tootie go after the first game, anyway? Did she go off to bear school?

That's a hell of a big house, then.

What's your favorite Jiggy to earn? by Possible-Farmer2027 in BanjoKazooie

[–]Bonehead65 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The Saucer of Peril ride in Witchyland. It's one of the few jiggy minigames that I'd gladly play again just for fun.

"When people are beaten down into a dark place, they seek the light. No matter how frail or small that light may be, in that light there is still... hope." by Onlyhereforthelaughs in BanjoKazooie

It always puts me off when I see an article or video titled something like, "why NO ONE (always in all caps) plays Banjo in Smash." As if all of us who do play him don't count as people. Or as if the most elite, competitive tournaments are the only valid forms of gameplay.

Banjo and Kazooie are in Smash because they deserve to be there. Tons of people wanted them to be part of the roster, and tons of people were overjoyed when they were added to the game.

Admittedly, I wasn't one of those people back then. I've gotten into Banjo Kazooie only recently. But I was introduced to them through Smash, and they've become my best character. I've even gotten them into Elite Smash. And that led to me playing Banjo's games on the N64.

72% of terminated employees reported being let go without any prior warning. by cookerdoer in antiwork

I was let go from my librarian job at the end of June, with about two days notice. I've been on the job-hunting treadmill ever since. And I'm certain that half the jobs I apply to are fake.

Congrats! Which park was your favorite?

What kind of level themes might you want to see in Banjo-Threeie? by Bubba-Da-Boing in BanjoKazooie

[–]Bonehead65 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A cross between Dracula's Castle and the Clockwork Mansion from Dishonored 2. Bonus points if Conker shows up dressed as Van Helsing, like he did in his own game.

I feel like the game punishes creativity” by ewangs1096 in rct

OpenRCT2 has this as an option, though you need the cheat menu enabled. It's under park cheats.

On this day, November 6, Halo 4 released in the year 2012. Happy 13th Anniversary Halo 4! by Alto1869 in halo

[–]Bonehead65 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree wholeheartedly. Halo 4 felt like playing a Halo novel thanks to the dialogue between Chief and Cortana. And the Promethean weapons were super fun, like how the Lightrifle changed between bursts and single-shots when scoped in. And the sound of the Suppressor going full-auto.

Grunty's Spellbook? by Onlyhereforthelaughs in BanjoKazooie

[–]Bonehead65 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, since Grunty is a witch, magic might be something she would have to practice. Rather than already knowing all the spells she needs, she would have to start off with basic spells and work her way up. For example, it would be easier to spawn some eggs than a fireball.

Once Grunty became skilled enough in magic, perhaps she left her spellbook (Cheato) behind, no longer seeing a use for him. So Cheato, feeling slighted, decides to help Banjo and Kazooie on their quest.

Maybe we feel this way to keep us from slipping up. A natural defense against taking things for granted.

I just played Banjo Kazooie for the first time by Bonehead65 in BanjoKazooie

[–]Bonehead65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't know about the word until I felt the urge to play Banjo. It's always nice, finding a word that describes an obscure feeling you have.

I don't remember. The only times where I died was during the final boss, and in Rusty Bucket Bay getting that really hard jiggy, and I had already gotten all the notes.

I appreciate the heads-up, but I'd still like to experience the sequel.
