    Fun fact: During the begining of the game, if you refuse Bottle's tutorial, but continue to talk to him in that exact mole-hill, he will get annoyed and eventually delete all of your save files.

    Hey AntDude, quick correction for you. The facts about Grunty that Brentilda gives you for the Quiz Show aren't random, they are different depending on the save slot you are using. So it is the same selection of three answers every time, and which one ends up being the correct answer depends on which save file it is tied to.

    One note on the Banjo Kazooie level design that I just noticed playing back through on the switch is how genius it is that the notes respawn. It causes the levels not to feel empty on playback, but the best thing lies in what Ant Dude pointed out... It gives dying an appropriate weight. If you die, you lose your note count. That makes it so that you don't want to just make silly mistakes and take damage.
    The game pushes this further by not respawning enemies. This is important because almost every level has hazards. Sharks, piranhas, freezing water or hot sand, something that will give you damage if you make any mistakes. This means that if you just go and kill all of the enemies then you actually put yourself in a position to not be able to make any mistakes... Unless you die and then you have to start over on getting notes. Lol It incentivizes you to get everything quickly and on the first run especially when there are puzzles that will take your health on the first miss.
    It's an ingenious design that I didn't notice the first time around.

    The Banjo-Kazooie experience can best be described as like having a three-course meal at a restaurant.
    The first three levels are the starter. A tasty appetizer that only gets you excited for the rest.
    The next three levels are the main course. That's where you get the real meat and potatoes, fulfilling and satisfying.
    The last three levels are the pudding. By now you're quite full and a little tired, but you can still manage another nice offering.

    I like the challenge the N64 gave with the notes not being permanent. Whenever I go back to play this game, my rule is to collect Jiggies first, and hunt down all of the notes last. Also, especially for Rusty Bucket Bay, you collect the most dangerous ones first. If you die, at least you weren't only one away from 100.

      I also recently got my hands on Grunty's Revenge! It's kinda easy so far, but it's a lot of fun! Just pull ip the level maps so I can find my way around, and we're good to go! I'm pretty sure this was made before Banjo Tooie? Or maybe they were in development at the same time? One of them pulled from elements of the other, that's for sure. I love the 2-d Grunty and Klungo fights, it's so nastalgic to the era that I largely missed out on due to it being mostly before my time.

    *AntDude PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE play Kameo: Elements of Power!*
    This game is a launch xbox 360 title game made by Rare dating back it's development history in the early 2000's until finally being released on the Xbox 360 in 2005 to high praise by critics.
    Also I'm going to do a *non -spoiler detail about why this game is so underrated and needs more attention:*
    This game is tragically underrated due to a long development history and Microsoft making them change the game when it was nearly complete for the original XBOX (some people were super lucky to find the debug version on an XBOX console and put it together in a playable ISO that needs a softmodded XBOX (original) to play) Starting life as a Nintendo GameCube, before being made for the XBOX after the Microsoft buy-out before finally being released on the Xbox 360 (although there are rumours that there was concept for Kameo originally being on Nintendo 64 with some screenshots of early gameplay footage to support this)
    Not to mention, there is a lot of hidden/lost lore in this game that almost no one knows about. Because of the rushed development, Rare used an official manga, 8 episode podcast, an official website and the Prima Guide to help fill in the details that they couldn't put into the game due to all the rushing and changes.
    Essentially, Kameo was changed so much because Microsoft wanted to appeal to Call Of Duty gamers, instead of letting the game be itself, and having an appeal to The Legend Of Zelda gamers. Originally in the N64-GameCube phase, you would catch up to 60 Elemental Creatures as babies, train as them to grow into their adult/warrior forms (taking a nod from Pokemon) with Kameo (also called Ariel, then Kai)controlling them, as well as being able to have them fight beside her in combat.
    Eventually it changed to 12 Elemental warriors with the art and story changed to become more mature (despite Kameo still being a 15 year old Elf now, yes they changed her to an elf, despite having her fairy wings still) with the story having a focus on responsibility and priority. The characters had so much charm and charisma that Rare is well known for, as well as Kameo having a purple dragon sidekick (Meepo) who played a crucial role in capturing the elemental babies, while Kalus had her own dragon companion Kreepo and the two shared an intense rivalry.
    Meepo was designed as comedic relief to bicker and interact with Ortho but despite this, the story had darker hints to itself as well (some carrying over to the modern 360 Kameo) and a plot involving Farron.
    With the XBOX version nearly complete, came the announcement of the Xbox 360 and wanting a launch game that could potentially be the Xbox's mascot, Microsoft made Rare change the game again for the 360 while making some aspects more mature to appeal to COD players. While the game was received with excellent reviews from critics, it's sales wasn't enough to convince Microsoft to go ahead with their big plans for Kameo, which included a full feature film on the big screen and canceled Kameo 2 in order to make Rare work on Kinect games.
    Over the years there have been petition after petition to get Kameo 2 made, however with the recent uncovering of the hidden/lost Kameo lore (because the game barely skims over it) a reboot would be the best case, with the lost lore included.
    Personally, the XBOX version is my favourite and I wish they had stuck with this and just transferred it to the 360 without all the changes and dropped plots, while keeping in the scrapped characters.
    Also there is a Kameo discord server, so if anyone is interested in seeing this lore, we have it all on there and it will be available for people to join on the *31st of July:*

    Am I the only one who loves the game show portion of this game? We see in the prologue that Gruntilda is waiting in the transformation machine and for the whole game I was expecting to bust into the room and stop the transformation from happening or her intercepting me beforehand and initiating a boss fight.
    The very last thing I expected was for her to create a legit game show with Tootie as a price.
    Also I love all tasks excluding the Gruntilda trivia. The sound and visual questions really feel like a proper test if you paid attention and reward those who explored the worlds thoroughly. And the battle games are the closest this game offers to a boss rush. Usually failing a task is not as critical if you collected enough extra honeycomb pieces during your journey. However there's also a lot at stake on the skull space, making these tasks extra tense.
    Not to mention Banjo really is relentless. Gruntilda willingly handed over Tootie and fled out of fear. And yet afterwards Banjo and Kazooie return to her lair with the sole intention of killing her.
    If the game show replaced the final boss of this game, I'd dislike it just as much, but considering that it has an awesome "post-game" final boss I absolutely dig the concept and execution.
