Two small treats from tonight  8) :

The thing I most love about DK is that there always seems to be something new that is possible to achieve...there... just a bit beyond your current level of skill. Keeps me coming back.  :)


P.s. Phil is gonna love these so much.

Hi all

Was just practicing level 1-1 (quite poorly it must be said) and got stuck in bottom right corner. Was expecting to die but ended up bouncing off wall and over fireball.

Why is it there are times when I expect to be hit by a barrel but then when I blink, I'm still going?

I am not exaggerating when I say that is one of the three best barrel boards I've ever seen.

You really think so? I definitely didn't think it was that amazing! :) There's always so much luck involved with these sorts of situations that it's hard to say what exactly is skill and what isn't.

What other 2 do you have in mind?

I watched several times.  Two things in particular stood out:
  • The uninterrupted parade of absolute chaos.  I rarely survive most of those predicaments, let alone all of them.
  • The obvious PPP required by the pair of 3rd girder wall jumps, or perhaps its close cousin FPP (frame perfect precision).
Get outta town!   ;)

Haha, I just re-watched.

One thing I noticed is that I think I am very biased against the WBs because of all my WBH experience. I felt almost no threat from all the WBs at the time, that I hardly even noticed them. For me, the biggest obstacles were those fireballs -which I feel is very luck-based, and which would make sense of why I initially viewed it as mainly just luck. But... yeah... there were way more WBs than I had initially remembered. That would probably add to the HYPE for many people. ;D

If anything, I could at least use this as a platform to say, in all seriousness: PLAY THE ****ING WILD BARREL HACK!!!!  ;D

Seriously, if you get good at the WBH (i.e. able to pass 1-1 like 30-50% of the time), you will feel WAY more comfortable on levels 3 and 4 of normal DK.

not quite as pro as some of the vids in this post, but I was shocked to make it out alive from this:
