Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts | The Completionist

I still can't believe I haven't done a Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts review until now. While it may not be the Banjo-Threeie that fans may have wanted, the way they addressed the drastic changes fits well. Our heroes have gotten fat and lazy over time and L.O.G. (the Lord of Games) sets the stage for all the new challenges. The gameplay may be completely different from what we expected, having to focus nearly all on vehicles, but the charm of characters and the world still is there with it's Rare flair.

Thank you for a thorough review of the game and giving it's newer mechanics a chance.

With or without Banjo Kazooie context.

[@supermairo88]

I feel like Nuts and Bolts would've been beter recived if it was an Og ip. Most of the hate twards it is probably due to it's timing and the conditions it was released in. I haven't played it so I can't say if it's good or bad but this is just my theory. Feel free to add imput or share your own theories.

[@CyberSurferXD]

Honestly the marketing didn't help either. The "Banjo's Back" campaign got everyone excited... only to release what's essentially a spin-off title. It'd be like FromSoftware advertising another Dark Souls, only to then release Dark Souls: City Simulator.... actually, on second thought I'd totally be on board for that~

[@jude_illusion]

Loads of people who say it's shit have never played it themselves. I mocked the game a lot, but upon actually playing it I had a blast! It's a really fun game, even if it's different from the rest of the BK games. 0/10 for the cube nose though.

@@romainbayer9098 I'm pretty sure the Banjo-Kazooie games are the sort of thing that any conventional wisdom on how things could be changed to make them "better" would only ruin what was already there. Or, worse, be good but still hated for being different. But, seriously, critically thinking about it in general, platformers and collect-a-thons both make terrible candidates for full-on remakes, cause the only way to change them is to make it different in either layout or gameplay mechanics, and you might as well be making a totally new game installment in the series at that point.

This game gets an unfair rap. It’s a good game, but the biggest problem is that isn’t the 3D platformer that people wanted.

[@thoraglp3946]

I mean what made Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie to the games we love. Well the style, the characters, the gameplay, story, the worlds, etc. And one of the most important things is gameplay. You can have the best story ever, but if the game blows so much I don´t wanna play it. We all had expectations for this game. We all waited years for any news and we got one: Banjo is back. The trailer or teaser with no hints that this game will include this wierd car build game. And imo this game is still, if you don´t compare it to Banjo games, a bad one. The worlds are large and have so little in them like they feel pretty empty. They lack so much character when you see them and think back to the likes of Tick Tock Woods. The tension of fights like Gruntilda and other bosses isn´t there. All in all i tried playing Nuts and Bolts and I still hate it. It´s not a great game imo. If you take away all the things giving you nostalgia noone would recommend this game. Only the music of Kirkhope, the characters somewhat safe this game. If you take them away this game is just a bad car game. It´s great they tried to change things, but why would you completly remove the core gampley that so many loved. Look at the 3d mario series for example. You collect stars and it´´s a platformer, but they change the formular each time by the right amount. Mario64 (the classic), Mario Sunshine (more movement obtions, Yoshi as ride,etc). But taking the gamplay that we all love is just plain and utter stupidity.

[@bcrossfire1219]

It doesn't help that it was the only new game the series had gotten for years, and it was basically selling itself as the third big installment of the franchise even though it was clearly spinoff material. B.S. like L.O.G. showing up and pissing all over the collect-a-thon elements that helped make the series popular to begin with did not help matters. It's one thing to be an ill-timed spinoff, but this Beak Bombed right past bad timing and crashed head-on into poor taste.

I must be the only person that ever actually enjoyed this game.

As someone who absolutely loved this game (in silence for obvious reasons), I'm happy at least one big youtuber gave it a good review. I tried to get into other build-your-own games, but none of them really did it for me.
