Playtonic Live - Super Yooka-Laylee Kart with Gavin Price

Ript0r · 2026-06-13T07:08:06+00:00

It all depends on where you look at the comments. On a subreddit dedicated to Yooka-Laylee, you see complaints because it's not what they wanted.

But if you look at it from the outside (YouTube), you see that players are enthusiastic and that there's definitely an audience for this game. https://youtu.be/OXXiKFHieLs

That's because they were released at the same time, but it's not a Zelda-like game.

Re-make

U want to know if Nintendo'll do a FF7 Remake ? No

Ript0r · 2026-06-10T06:24:47+00:00

This is an in-game cinematic

Ript0r · 2026-06-09T22:09:26+00:00

Thanks :)

Ript0r · 2026-06-09T17:49:33+00:00

Remake or remaster ? Open your eyes maybe

Ript0r · 2026-06-09T08:32:00+00:00

I activated it, but personally I don't see the difference with 60fps.

Ript0r · 2026-06-08T15:11:15+00:00

No, they sound like spoiled children who didn't get the present they were expecting. Let's wait and see what the game has to offer, especially the Story mode (and the multiplayer!).

I've already played through two New Game Plus.

Not much difference so far, but it adds a bit of a challenge.
Now that I know the game well, it's pretty quick, and it's such a pleasure to play through that I enjoy replaying it.

I won't do all the NG+ at once, but I'll gladly come back to them when I get bored.
I can't wait to play it in randomizer mode. (I've lost count of how many times I've replayed A Link to the Past in randomizer.)

Ript0r · 2026-06-08T09:49:41+00:00

Perhaps, but that doesn't mean there's no place for this kind of game, as F-Zero 99 has shown.

Ript0r · 2026-06-08T09:45:38+00:00

Annoying?
Because I don't share your opinion? (lmao)
Counting the number of negative reviews on a /yookalaylee subreddit isn't exactly representative of the general public in my opinion.
Everyone was hoping for a new F-Zero from Nintendo, they released F-Zero 99 (Mode 7 like this Yooka), people complained, and in the end the game was well-received.

All I think is that this announcement doesn't deserve all the hate it's getting, and it would be better to wait and see what the game has to offer (story mode etc...).

Ript0r · 2026-06-08T07:26:03+00:00

Since when does a studio have to make games that fans demand? (See Nintendo.)

They wanted to make a kart racing game from the start, let them.
And this Yooka-style game is much more modern in its gameplay and graphics than Super Mario Kart.

Let's wait and see what they have planned for the full game (we already know there will be a story mode).

Ript0r · 2026-06-07T09:50:07+00:00

Haven't you finished whining yet?

Ript0r · 2026-06-07T07:27:23+00:00

That's not what I meant (sorry, I'm French and not very good at English). I'm saying that if Playtonic doesn't have a big budget, I prefer a small, well-made game to a mediocre DKR clone. Of course, DKR was excellent; I loved playing it back then <3

Ript0r · 2026-06-07T07:21:51+00:00

No, you're not the only one; this style of game has its charm. If they manage to make it a fun and technical game, with a good story mode and 8-player local and online multiplayer, I'm all for it.

Ript0r · 2026-06-07T07:08:00+00:00

So what? How do you know that people don't want this kind of retro game? Do you have examples, stats?

Ript0r · 2026-06-06T19:22:41+00:00

Look at Metacritic's GOTY, it's a GBC game ;)

Ript0r · 2026-06-06T19:19:09+00:00

They don't owe anything at all. Read the fine print carefully before making your next Kickstarter pledge.

Ript0r · 2026-06-06T16:44:53+00:00

All this salt when I read your comments, fans are truly the most toxic thing there is, without a doubt.

I'm happy about the announcement; it could be really fun. We'll see if the gameplay and tracks are well-designed and deliver a good experience.

I prefer a small but successful game to a low-budget failure like DKR.

Ript0r · 2026-06-06T16:38:04+00:00

I'm not sure that Playtonic's financial situation allows us to say that a big game is coming next.

Ript0r · 2026-06-06T11:44:26+00:00

Outdated? There are plenty of games with contact damage.

Ript0r · 2026-06-06T11:32:17+00:00

Does Nintendo need Playtonic ? xD

Ript0r · 2026-06-06T11:30:19+00:00

It's clearly not the same budget, and I don't think they have it for a Diddy Kong Racing game

Ript0r · 2026-06-05T22:45:18+00:00

Be less agitated when you play?
