I feel like that bit's pretty unfair, but at the same time, now that you KNOW you have to kill those bats, it's not a problem, I guess? So, you end up getting killed the first time, since you had no idea you even had to deal with them. But what it DOESN'T tell you is that you need to kill the bats in the library first, or else they'll kill YOU. It's also pretty clear where you need to take it, since it's a pretty straightforward path. The scene starts you nearby one of the keys, which DOES clue you in on what you need. One part that I feel is pretty unforgiving is the keys part of the Spooky chapter. Part of me thinks that BFD is pretty unforgiving to newcomers, but once you know what to do, it's pretty easy. I've seen a lot of people recently complaining about the difficulty, specifically in the later half. Maybe it's just nostalgia, but I also know the game pretty well, so none of it is particularly hard for me. I mean, I love BFD, but I've played it a million times. I was actually thinking about it the other day. Like, there's a heck of a lot to process about this game, it's something special, it's Rareware at their most brazen and unfiltered, I'm sure it was amazing for the time, etc.īut I'm in no hurry to play it again. I also didn't find the game as funny as I thought I would, aside from the whole absurdity of various situations. The lava-boarding part literally drove me to drinking (which could have been my problem right there). I loved the shameless crudity of it all.īut the later half or so of the game, just being more or less shepherded from one overly difficult challenge to the next, was frustrating. I liked it best when it was building up and tearing down its own environment instead of shoving in now-dated pop culture references. I'm glad I played it, and I have a lot to say about it- I'd still like to write an essay about what it was like for a long time DK and Banjo fan who's had this chunk of the DKU missing from her brain to finally play this and see that familiar googly-eyed world come undone. I didn't have a lot of fun with this game.
