      I was in a store long, long ago when Gamestop was still the place to go and an older woman asked me about a Mortal Combat game. “Is this a good one? It’s for my grandson.” I said “How old is your grandson?” Her “Eight years old” So I told her about fatalities and the rather tough learning curve on these games. Maybe not the best for an 8 year old kid. I suggested a Crash Bandicoot game instead. Lol.

    The "popping plants" leads me to believe a dev screwed up the Level of Detail (LOD) settings for them: you've got a set of distances that govern what to show depending on how far away the camera is, right down to "show nothing" for when you're really far away. It's like they somehow got the distances for the highest and lowest LODs the wrong way round or something, so the bushes get LESS complex as you get closer.

    This is so weird to me. You feel so SMALL playing as any of the Kongs. Like, the trees are towering over you, the monsters are generally your size, eve the bushes are proportionally larger than you. Like, that's WEIRD to me. King Kong, and presumably his mom are supposed to be towering giants who live in a tiny world, they should be able to look over tree tops and cross rivers in a single step, the only thing bigger than them are the monsters that want to kill them. But, everything here makes it feel like you're a normal sized gorilla, even the distance off the camera makes you feel small. WHY IS KING KONG SMALL?!

    So, here's the thing: the rights for the original King Kong novel were never renewed, so they are in the public domain. Anyone can make an adaptation of King Kong as long as they somewhat base it on the original novel. I believe the title "King Kong" itself is off limits because it belongs to the original movie, but those rights expire in 2029 too, so we're bound to see even more adaptations in the near future.
    In any case, the reason this game was made on the cheap seemingly out of nowhere is because it's very likely _not_ licensed.

    Personally, I don’t think it’s the worst because it’s somehow entertainingly bad. There’s some stuff to laugh at (the worm, piss lake, and Kong’s walk) and I kinda liked the leap mechanic. What I consider worst is that there is nothing good about it, no entertainment in any sense. There are minor stupid things in the game to laugh at, depending on the sense of humor.

    One of the BIG differences in care in how the Peter Jackson's King Kong and this one was made is who the publisher decided to hand the project to. Ubisoft handed it to one of its OWN subdivisions, so a lot of money would be invested tso it would be made properly. This one was handed to some subcontractor in Chile so it could be made for as cheap as humanly possible. Not saying that developers in Chilr are any less competent, but I'm willing to bet they were paid like crap and not really given what they would need to succeed.

  • @bleach8888
    @bleach8888 Рік тому +2

    The best way to describe this is as follows. If you were a predominantly ps2 game player, and were known for just playing ps2 games, didn't tell me this was a ps5 game, I would justifiably assume this was a ps2 game. It looks, plays, and acts exactly like one. It even has the generic ps2 3 button gameplay. The one that was actually made for the ps2 looks better then this, (I played it on the Xbox 360 though). Also, I just got to the first boss fight, and they got the enemy wrong. That's not the species that wiped out the kongs, either it was too hard to animate them without back legs, or they just didn't do the 2 seconds of Google search to see what they looked like. That's a mistake so simple to get right I have to assume they got it wrong on purpose because of animation problems. I think they just used pre-made assets and didn't care at all about what skullcrawlers looked like. They're called skullCRAWLERS, for fucks sake, not skullwalkers. This is clearly a pump and dump game they didn't care about at all, and no one working on it knew nothing about the Kong universe. I'm not sure how they got the rights to make this game, I would have told them they couldn't release this even after they finished it no matter how much money was lost, just to save the Kong brand.
