Can’t say I’m entirely surprised by this. It’s time to go full circle in this terrible franchise, I guess

Oh MAN that’s also the reason I flew out there. And then it was like “surprise bitch have fun fighting a hinox while naked” lmfao

YEAH like... you run down a narrow hallway, no big deal, come to the end and BOOM HUGE ROOM FULL OF LAVA, BETTER FIGURE IT OUT QUICK LINKY BOY, haha. So many shrines have those “OH SHIT” moments, I really enjoy them.

Yeah, when I was finding Major Test shrines (and even Moderate ones when I only had 3-4 hearts) I just noped on up out of there at first. Then it was so satisfying to come back and wipe the floor with those things.

There’s one shrine where you go down a long hallway and it just DUMPS YOUR SORRY ASS OUT into a huge room from above and you gotta like... glide around it. I really liked that one, haha. So many of them are just so well done and very cleverly designed.

You sound like someone who hasn’t played the game at all

Hold on to ‘em, for sure. Eventually you’ll get to the point where you can grind out guardians for parts for more of them and then you can build up a good stock.

It literally doesn’t matter whatsoever what his lines in the game were, he’s chosen to espouse some really awful opinions about how the world should work and Playtonic is well within their rights to scrub him from the game for them.

I think it’s a solid move from their standpoint. They’re selling a game that’s meant to be all-ages. It’s going to draw in people who are nostalgic for Banjo-Kazooie, but also draw in kids who just want to play a colorful platformer.
Playtonic extended the VO offer to JT based on the knowledge that he was a huge Banjo…

Just be sure to pick it up when it releases!

100% correct. this is a move from a marketing standpoint that makes complete and total sense

3/10 for emoji use

No idea, and given that the trailers have indicated that the voices are imitating the Banjo-Kazooie grunting instead of actual words, I assume it was just meant to be an easter egg anyway.

Good on them. I had no idea that he was even voicing anything in this game (though I’m not surprised - seems like a bunch of indie devs have turned to YT guys for voicework in order to get them to hype the game), but as someone who backed this super hard on Kickstarter, I’m glad they opted to do this. It’s nice to see…

Yuck.

Baltimore is so harshly segregated in its neighborhoods. People look at overall statistics and will go “oh what a multicultural city” but the breakdown is suuuuuper segregated.

Hampden. Lived there for about two and a half years. It’s nice, but you definitely have an overwhelmingly white population and while the area puts on airs as an artsy fartsy hipster paradise, a lot of that is lower/working class whites who have been there for generations. Heard my neighbors yellin various racial slurs…

It’s super weird. But his area of Baltimore (my old neighborhood incidentally) is SUPER WHITE and definitely has a lot of people who kind of live in their own bubble. Maybe he thought since NYC is so much bigger he’d be able to go on more of a spree before he got caught? (but then again he only killed one dude so...…

This dude is from my old neighborhood in Baltimore, so this is kind of interesting but also not surprising given the amount of white trash in that part of town.

Not just younger people, but white people in general just don’t seem to get the conflict over Cosby. He was never the hero (especially to other people in the entertainment industry - he was in many ways a trailblazer for the black community in showbiz) to the white community that he was to the black community. So I…
