Imagine if K. Rool never came back and these guys really were the main villains of Bananza. Would they be hated as much as the Tikis and the Snowmads?

No. It's a very low bar but they show far more personality than both of the evil groups in the returns games.

I remember when donkey kong country returns first came out, Anthrit put a video on youtube "wiping my ass with donkey kong country returns". He used the actual disc of the game and showed shit on it before he mailed it to nintendo. The original video had since been deleted, and a censored version was uploaded where he said it wasn't the actual disc and there was no shit. A few years back I looked on google and searched for reuploads of the original, and was able to find them. Now google search deteriorated so much, that to even find the reupload, not the uncensored version on an obscure forum post, you need to use duckduckgo or yandex. Internet is dead. That video is how I feel about bananza though, even though it has K'rool.

It would all depend on what Void did with the Bananium Root transformation, they could have easily pulled off a Buu to Majin Buu scenario where he could turn into an actual threat, and I think this team could have pulled it off, but still glad they went with King K Rool.
Poppy and Grumpy for sure can be main stay side characters though. Grump could be the more antagonistic friend of DK and for Poppy Kong Candy could use a rival in the "Who's sexier" contest

They're better than Tikis because they actually have personality.
They're better than Snowmads because they actually live up to their designs.
Saying that, Tikis would've been cool as furniture, while I wouldn't mind the Snowmads being subordinates to the Kremlings.

I think people would be upset not because void co is bad but because there's so much crocodile imagery in the enemies. I think people would feel baited by it and it would sour them on void co even if I think they that are good and void probably has the best boss fight. They would definitely still fair better then retro's big bads.

I feel the same because there's really not much to k. Rool in DKC yet people say he had more. The fake out credits were cool but other then that he just throws his crown, jumps around and has cannons balls fired from the sky. Not much of any personality to gleam from him there but the design wasn't bad.

The Snowmad bosses at least were a lot better and more memorable than the bosses from DKC1. No idea why people claim they had zero personality and presence when their intros had all kinds of charm and threat and their fights were pretty tough and had awesome themes. Meanwhile DKC1, while the boss theme was also awesome, we had two giant giggling beavers, two giant buzzard heads, a giant bee, and a giant enemy-spawning oil drum.

I like Void Co. a lot. Though I wish they were hired or funded by K. Rool or something instead of K. Rool being sealed. Void Kong has great personality and he does the awesome trope of throwing a tantrum when he realizes heโ€™s losing and just spams while you beat him up. Grumpy Kong is chill and honest and Poppy Kong is just funny like Candy Kong. The sexy Kongs will forever be hilarious.

Broodals are not tiki tier. They are much better than the koopalings and fit the rabbit and moon motif of the game great. It's just fun that Bowser hired wedding planners that are contracted to kill you. Better them than tbe koopalungs any day.

I agree. People only shit on the snowmads because the leader is so generic, him being a generic angry fat walrus. He doesn't even talk.

Bowser and K-rool look cool and grew a personalities over games.

Otherwise, the snowmads as a group (especially including their bosses) were actually really cool.

That's the thing, though, K. Rool started as just a generic fat angry crocodile and was derisively compared to Bowser. It was only after the second game that he developed a personality. Bowser too was just a generic giant turtle who didn't even appear in the sequel and took forever to start getting an actual personality. It's unfair to criticize Fredrik for not having a developed personality in his debut game when they were in the same boat.

Donkey Kong isnโ€™t really that big in a lot of games. I think heโ€™s supposed to be 6โ€™1 while hunched and 7โ€™ standing up but they always make him smaller for game design or something. Even in Bananza, heโ€™s barely bigger than Cranky.

Fredrick just didn't stand out. In the 90's, K rool absolutely did and it stuck. Frederick comes off as a discount K.Rool. Most of Frederick's attributes from his sailing persona to his attacks as a final boss just felt straight ripped from K.Rool.

They didn't even give him something memorable and self identifiable like K.Rool's fake kredits.

It's not a leak, people noticed their voice actors are in the credits of Mario Kart World and they don't voice any known character. But I feel like it's possible they might simply voice some of the regular enemies you can select as racers rather than being credited for Void/K. Rool in advance. We'll see.

The reveal was supposed to foreshadow Bananza release for the Switch 1 but something happened during the development it took them 7 years to finally show us what they were hinting with K. Rool being in Smash.

I'm tired of pretending that the Tikis weren't based. Anthropomorphic tropical musical instruments that hypnotized the local fauna was a great concept for DKC villains, and it was a better explanation as to why DK had to fight so many enemies in his home turf, compared to the Kremlins seemingly taking over the entire island and even building fucking factories overnight, and all the animals siding with them over the king of the jungle whose giant face makes up for 1/3 of the land.

Frankly Donkey Kong never needed a consistent villain, Kremlins were only good in DKC2 and I welcomed the new games doing something different. I fucking wish Mario could fight someone else other than Bowser for the first time since Super Mario Land 2. But retarded Smashfags just had to bandwagon over K Roll so hard that they convinced Nintendo to bring them back.

I like that despite Grumpy having a face turn at the end and redeems himself by fixing some of the damage they caused, he still doesn't hate Void like Poppy does. He respects that Void worked from the bottom to the top, and that Void saw enough value in his own work to hire him, Man just wants some appreciation for his efforts, and by the end he finally gets it.

They are alright, Void is better than Fred if only because he has a personality.

But they would still be hated because only the DK franchise was denied their nemesis and recurring enemies for some retarded reason. Every Mario game game has goombas, koopas, piranha plants and bowser as the last boss, every Kirby has waddle dees and Dedede or Meta Knight as a bossfight somewhere. Every Metroid has the titular creature, ridley or some returning enemy.

Only DK has to reinvent itself every fucking console since the gamecube.

My autistic idea to connect the two was that the Snowmads were originally a peaceful conglomerate of different arctic species until K. Rool and the Kremlings (after losing Crocodile Isle, both the DKC2 AND DK64 versions) ransacked their original home island to become their new headquarters, forcing them to become more militaristic and were eventually driven out entirely as the Kremlings completely dominated their homeland, thus leading to them trying to take over islands to call their own.

So if anything my idea would have the Kongs chase down the Snowmads but eventually realize K. Rool is the real cause so by the end they form a truce to reclaim their original home from the Kremlings.

Admittedly, I'm not too much of a fan of making the Snowmads THAT sympathetic. It would be better if the different arctic species had a peaceful, if strained relationship. Maybe even some hostle relations the Walruses and the Owls But the Kremlings come in and force them to get along, eventually forming a brotherhood around defeating the Kremlings and being Arctic animals After K Rool is defeated, the Snowmads try to absorb the Kongs into their group, and when met with the slightest of resistance, they attack. This way of thinking makes them understandable as villains, while also being arguably MORE sympathetic generational trauma or whatever therapy-speak is used nowadays

my personal autistic idea was
>K.Rool reeling after his latest defeat, comes across the Snowmads
>disguises himself and challenges their leader (Bashmaster, aka the polar bear) to a duel
>wins and assumes control of their army, orders them to attack DK Island and steal every banana they can find
>none of them are happy about it or understand why but you gotta do what you gotta do
>during the final boss K.Rool tears off the walrus disguise after a fakeout ending and reveals himself
>after realizing they were tricked, they willingly leave (but still dislike DK for kicking their asses)

I do like the Snowmads, all their designs are really good and I like the species variety. It's just Lord Fredrik himself who sucks.

Anon, that's the joke. Cranky thought it was K. Rool but it wasn't as he was stuck underground.

That seems kinda misleading. If that was the case I'd figure his dialogue would be that he made a mistake. K. Rool also said that he survived eating mushy bananas during the time he was trapped which would have to come from the hoard since banandium gems (probably) don't expire.

What the hell man, this game is a love letter to Rare DK. I hope all the doubters ate their words.

Who exactly told me? I didn't go on 4chan often til a few days ago. It was precipitated by seeing all the 10/10 reviews of DKB, and feeling like I'm in bizarro world, even searches of bad reviews being suppressed on google/bing/derivatives, and having to use yandex to find them. I went down the rabbit hole, and they always inevitably take you to 4chan. I thought the game was dogshit from personal experience without having read any bad reviews. No one "told" me, I just wanted to find like-minded people in a climate of dead internet theory coming to reality and eshittification of everything. I know 4chan has bots and astroturfing too, but at least there's some semblance of a discourse.

You can make Fredrik work, he just needs something to make him unique. That's the idea around my post >>716231603(here) Make him a stoic, serious leader who believes he knows what's best for everyone. With resistance being met with strict punishment. I imagine a bit around Fredrik never smiling due to his tasks being too heavy. Or him telling the Kongs to get used to the cold alluding to him conquering Kong Island after defeating K Rool. It also comes down to his supporting cast. Like make Skowl the owl boss initially work with K Rool because he knows how to stroke the old Owl's pride.
