It'll be a get after my working hours at least. Will be fun to cap off the week like this under the torrential rain we have today

After the heat wave I've been in for the past week or so, I would kill a monkey for torrential rain. 

But yeah, I'm picking up the game in about an hour and I'm very excited. 

I mean it was all heat and humidity before yesterday's weather as well.

Thankfully, that has finally changed today !

Btb, I finally got the time to play the first layer of the game and my first impressions are :

- Seeing the game being this smooth even with all the destruction and action is quite a joy with DK at the helm. (Strong rumble really emphasizes that feeling)But I'd say he surprisingly feels more loose/slippery than I initially thought he would be. Moveset wise, his moves settled in pretty easily.

- The mines and Baboon town were a first delight quite perfect for the introduction since it emphasized heavily the basics of the moveset.

- Nothing except for Odd Rock's introduction has really sunk so far in the story. Need to see more of VoidCo.

- Lagoon Layer is an immediate step up exploration wise, love the overall colors there and the collecting aspect of fossils, gold and junk.

Anywoo, strong first impressions !
