Tanooki Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Or wait on a 50% off GoG sale and screw them for dragging this out. I know I'm mixed on it, but I loathe giving money out for bad behavior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Another game i'd buy if it were on a cart.....yeeeeesh. Well, you could buy it on a disc, or you could get it as a download. It's not on vinyl or 8-track, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanooki Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Travis it was supposed to come out physical for Switch and then didn't. I wouldn't hope much on it. Show them who's boss, go to GoG.Com and buy it, it's 50% off right now. No reason to wait on Switch or pay double for the same game as it's sleazy.

Logging in from my lunchbreak because I had to throw out my two cents. My Kickstarter pledge was actually less than the retail cost of the download. So why buy it again on GOG when I downloaded it last night for free? Yes it sucks that the physical version hasn't realized, and yes, I will buy a sealed copy if it does release at a later date, to show my support for the publisher. I kickstarted Shantae Half Genie hero and got the download code for Wii-U, and have a sealed physical Wii-U copy, and redownloaded it on Switch. Don't think I wouldn't do the same for Yooka-Laylee if it turns out to be awesome. Sometimes showing support for a dev/platform means more than just getting something as cheaply as possible, or heaven forbid resorting to piracy.

Tanooki Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I'm aware of that and I do just that, when it's warranted. But given they said they'd do something (physical), then reneged on it, I felt no reason to pay full price any further and may in the end not buy it at all. I've paid up in other cases when the developer follows through or even goes above and beyond like with the neat little extras Nicalis does when I could just download/buy physical a cheaper copy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanooki Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Good to know, kind of curious if it's a coincidence or intentional, but today it also went to a new high of 70% off on GoG.com down to $12 to buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flojomojo Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 70% off at GOG until the 11th Edit Oops, should have looked before posting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda Stardust Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) Today is the day...go get your copy before they are all gone! Today? Where can I get the switch version? I heard it was coming in August. It's not available on Amazon. I already have the download from kickstarter, just need the switch card for the shelf... Nevermind, found it. A bit high for an indie, but I don't care. Ordered. I'm such a collectard... https://www.limitedrungames.com/products/limited-run-13-yooka-laylee-preorder Edited September 9, 2018 by Kosmic Stardust 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 amusing, opinionated review by "Giles" of Llamasoft I felt 'compelled' to warn people NOT to buy this game. Finally it came down so low in price on the PSN store I got it ...First .. the first thing you'll look for is how to remove the audio dialogues and/or at least turn that volume to 0, this game has some of THE MOST HORRENDOUS/ANNOYING EVER "FAKE SPEECH" SOUND EFFECTS !! Trust me you would not endure more than 20 seconds of that then your ears will start to split, in disgust.Second .. WHAT THE HECK IS SO COMPLETELY WRONG WITH THE FRAME RATE/CAMERA ???!!!!As soon as you move, everything seems to go around 30fps or such an BLUR/JITTER AS FUCK this game is COMPLETELY UNWATCHEABLE/HURTS MY EYES !!!Third controls ... "do we need a game with 40 special moves ???" ...Fourth again camera .. "seems to have a - bad - mind of its own"Fifth objective / levels structure .. horrendous, to say the least ...Sixth .. cut scenes/dialogues .. TAKE ME AWAY FROM ALL THIS !!Seventh ... characters .. erm .. hum .. a snake in trousers ... erm hum .. other shit .. erm hum ...Overall : "EVERYTHING THEY SAID BAD AND MORE ABOUT THIS GAME IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE", THIS IS A VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY BADLY EXECUTED GAME.If you'd correct the camera, the frame rate, the ultra mega hurting speech, the controls, the level design .. "it could be something else" whatever you look at this game in the current state this could be a "textbook example to study about HOW NOT TO MAKE A GAME" It's .. 'the implementation of everything' where everything falls hard into pieces .. the idea could have been good, let's say the graphics "passable" at least it could have been acceptable if the game would have been fun to play, but it isn't, it's unplayable.What I really don't understand "what is so bad about the camera/movements" i suppose must be this "famous we do not vsynch the stuff is interpolated" or shit like that, whatever is it ONE OF THE WORST VISUAL EXPERIENCES EVER SEEN .. it's all a blur ...And I've been playing other stuff "it's fine", so it's not the TV or settings like that, it's really the game itself is shit.Moral : this game is really as bad as been told if not even more, don't waste your money, don't spend time trying to play it, if you can see it somewhere look at how bad it is and make a not "if i'd do a game i won't do what they done here".Pity "could have been something" as it is it's a shame. _________________Giles the billy goat "Baa" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda Stardust Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 It is a great little game. Similar to Banjo series on n64. Same 90s era single stick camera control. Reviewers overlook this a bit by comparing it to modern titles rather than the 90s era collectathon platforms which inspired it. Compared to period releases (ie other RARE developed n64 games), it holds up well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 He sounds more like a whining fool that doesn't get it making comments like that. The game was intentionally made to play and feel like an N64 game, even went as far as adding basically an N64 mode for visuals too. That non-review whine fest just goes too far with nothing to back it up other than troll repeating what other whiners said without explaining anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
