Forums - Gaming - DKCR too difficult?

Faxanadu on 20 December 2010

I read some reviews of DKC Returns and most state it is rather difficult. That surprised me, as so far I did not encounter major obstacles.

I just finished world three though, so my question: is it getting much more difficult after world 3?

I did not get the feeling of a significant diffculty ramp up between world 1 and 3.

I'm not sure. I get the game myself in a few days. However before I played Super Mario Galaxy I was told by several Wii fans that it was incredibly hard. Not sure what game they were playing though because it isn't.

People are just newbs.

they said the same about Demon's Souls, i remember someone crushed his controller because of it.

The secret levels are somewhat challengin, but the true difficulty lies in the Time Attack mode and the Mirror mode.



Above: still the best game of the year.

I just looked at some videos from the secret levels. They seem a bit more timing based and less slow paced. Looks more like it.

From world 4 on it's all just memorizing patterns. Once you beat a level the 2nd time is easier sure. But it can get pretty frustrating in world 7. Be sure to enter with plenty of balloons, getting thrown out of the level over and over again gets old fast.

Don't bother with co-op from world 4 on, unless your co-op partner just likes to sit on donkeys back and shoot the occasional banana. The game is not made for 2 people running around.

Thats what I figured. Started in Coop and did world 1 that way. World 2 and 3 were much easier when I did them alone.

omg Wii fans suck @ games XZ

On a more serious note, I think the levels with the barrel rocket (Crowded Cavern, Mole Patrol) are kinda hard, world 8 is definitely harder than any other but the real challenge begins within the 1-K, 2-K, 3-K... levels. They are a pain in the ass. Time attack, try to get the gold medal! Mirror mode too is pretty difficult since you have only one heart. 

The game is probably not the hardest, but out of the 4 DKC it is the hardest and it's way harder than any Wii game Nintendo has produced (NSMBW, Mario Galaxy 2...)

Those are your comments, not mine. I said some Wii fans said it was hard. I don't get how your spinning that to all fans.
