I can see a Banjo Kazooie styled DK game, i think that would be awesome and adds another dimension to the IP.

While taking cues from Super Mario Odyssey of course. Odyssey set a new standard for open world 3D platformers. :)

What makes you think Odyssey was an open world? It was purely level-based. There has never been an open-world Mario game. (Bowsers Fury might be the first) 64, Sunshine and Galaxy are hub worlds. Odyssey is the linear level base. The levels are large like 64 or Sunshine but not in any way open world. The open-world refers to BOTW. Xenoblade X. GTA. AC Odyssey and such.
