I think he's just one of those guys that is the equivalent to a grumpy old man: He hates everyone. But if there WAS a reason, in DKCR you find him at Stormy Shore, when he was breaking apart a ship. He probably saw the Kongs as more victims.
I love this level...don't really understand why some people rate this the most difficult level in the game. 2-k and other k levels are much more challenging.
I remember getting donkey Kong country for xmas when i was about 14 and being totally pissed off that the games was so easy that i beat it in two days. Oddly enough my gf bought dktf for this Christmas and i have been loving it.
As someone who is playing this game years later this is still one of my favorite levels it’s got all the right music and tension to make it one of the better ones. Certainly makes up for some of the more bland stages in the game
There’s not a whole lot of them but I would say some of the stages in the savanah toward the end before the boss aren’t the best. Also I never really enjoyed the beehive level in juicy jungle.
@@tigershark272003 you mean Cannon Canyon 3-6 and Twilight terror 3-5, or you are including bonus stages too. I can see why you think that though I don't think the same. I really like the cannon angles in Cannon Canyon and I love all the Rocket Barrel stages too because of how much is happening in them. I really can't see why you would dislike Beehive Brawl tho, level is top tier with its uses of honey and climactic ending
The Faker Actually no those are the ones I actually like it’s the two bonus ones that aren’t that great. Scorch and torch is one of my favorite levels and the music is great too!
@@tigershark272003 Yeah, Rickety Rafts is my least liked level in World 3, but I still really like Bramble Scramble, the level has a unique spiky plant-ish aesthetic going on, and imo, it's constructed in a very creative way. It is one of the non eventful ones, but world 3 has more than enough of those so a level without an event is acceptable
In the parts where Squiddicus attacks you,is the music that plays a remix,because it sounds familiar.I know the regular music is a remix of Lockjaw's Locker,but is the Squiddicus music a remix of that too or something else?
Pulpodioso es tan picado que siguió a DK a toda una isla lejos de su hogar para acabarlo en su cumpleaños. ¿Qué te hizo DK? ¿Ver como habías destruido un barco en la playa?
i r8 ir8 8 8/8 m8 Not really though. I give the stage more like a 4/8. Meh. Awesome music and visuals, but it wasn't very fun. The puzzle piece in the first octopus race section was annoying.
I'd say average difficulty level - try the Dark Wold on Super Meat Boy (World 5 - Rapture / Dark World) thats hard, and in this game hard is 6-K (shit is annoying) lol the only thing annoying about this level is the very end part and that last puzzle piece.
yet this has been critically acclaimed MANY (and I do mean many) lists consider it one of the best platformers of the last 2-3 years (and) one of the best for Wii U - granted I'm older (much older) and I've been playing platformers for 28 years but honestly I didn't have a problem after a few tries like anything LOL @ people who think a game is a joke b/c its hard you think THIS is hard ? Shit try Super Meat Boy I'll show you a hard 2-D platformer...well this is more of a 2.5D platformer easily one of the best I've played in recent years I agree with the majority maybe its not for a little kid. But I wouldn't take points away b/c its "hard" lol thats the joke if anything. There are much easier platformers hell even New Super Mario Bros might be easier, or let them play Mario Kart 8 or something. Even Shovel Knight if a game is too easy I loose interest quick.
The music theme when you are above the water in this level is amazing!
Lockjaw Saga is Fanservice ;)
I love the music above the water too! I also love the music inside the water, it sounds really cool as well.
@@gr8nessgd0767 sounds like you just love all the music
Every song in this level is perfection. Hell, this entire game.
When I saw that kraken I was like good to see you old friend and swam away like a mad man with the middle finger out
Same damn did it sure feel good
This is one of the harder non-temple levels especially so if you're collecting all the KONG letters. I might even consider it harder than Shoal Atoll.
Shoal atoll is not really hard, just long. The first puzzle piece can be tricky though
I wouldn’t say shoal atoll is hard, it just takes a while to figure out
@@thefaker4751 this level on hard mode is probably harder than any of the K levels in the game. 2-K with DK only might be a tie
Ah, 2-5...
Good old memories
If you listen closely to the music before the octopus attack, it is the shiphold theme from Donkey Kong Country 2
It sure is. Good old "Lockjaw's Saga."
Well it still is based on the shiphold theme when the octopus attacks. It's just a manic chase rendition of it.
Almost started freaking crying hearing Lockjaw’s Saga again.
He's back, and he's pissed
One of the better levels but also really hard
Squiddicus appears in this level. What does he have against the Kongs in these recent games?
I think he's just one of those guys that is the equivalent to a grumpy old man: He hates everyone. But if there WAS a reason, in DKCR you find him at Stormy Shore, when he was breaking apart a ship. He probably saw the Kongs as more victims.
Dashie probably paid him off to go after Donkey B!tch@$$
@@MetalMouth54321 or he was mind controlled by the tikis :/
@@Paradoxe_0
And yet he's attacking here despite the lack of Tikis.
@@Teknanam “Actually the tikis are here because of the fire level in world 3,the falling statue Tiki appears,and they attack the snowmads” 🤓
I love this level...don't really understand why some people rate this the most difficult level in the game. 2-k and other k levels are much more challenging.
2-K time trial made me bleed, and then 3-K time trial made me bleed more.
Matt S yeah the factory level in world 6 is MUCH worst
I don't think anyone says it's the hardest, just that it's one of the best.
Bro all temles r ez on hard mode
@@Oneiroclast
Yooo my man Squiddicus' still pumpin' after DKCR! Good for him
5:03
That timing tho
I rate Irate Eight eight outta eight, mate.
LOL
if you listen when he comes out of the water to kill the octopus, when he hits it three times, wither storm roars are heard, search it up.
It's that stupid squid again. What did we ever do to you?
+TheInfernityZero Octopus :P
His name is Squiddicus, though.
I'm also always wondering about that.
he just pissed that king k. rool hasn't come back yet, thats why he smashes ships that aren't k. rools'
4:54 NICE SHOT!
Envy Homunculus he wasn’t controlling it
the music at the start of the level is my favourite. i wish it played more
If you listen closely, you can tell that it is the shiphold theme from Donkey Kong Country 2
I like the octopus I wonder whats he got against the kongs.
they aren't Snowmass, notice how he destroys all ships except for the snowmads'
Dude’s just a Grade-A hater. Tiki Tong, pirate, penguin, monkey, doesn’t matter to him.
Ya'll need to stop complaining of this game being too hard, just git gud!!!!
U guys would definitely h8 dkc 1-3 for snes
I remember getting donkey Kong country for xmas when i was about 14 and being totally pissed off that the games was so easy that i beat it in two days. Oddly enough my gf bought dktf for this Christmas and i have been loving it.
Fr
It's too hard, I've been stuck on this level for ages and it's no fun
I was stuck on it for 2 years :(
Git gud m8
It's dk it's supposed to be hard
I beat it at age 11 after 1 hour, guys-
Dixie For Smash Ult.!

Bland stages? Can you give examples of some in this game?

He sounds like dry bowser 4:58
A true nightmare in Time Attack.
I somehow managed it to not find one of the puzzle-pieces of this level.
People thinks its an octopus, but no, its actually the kraken
In the parts where Squiddicus attacks you,is the music that plays a remix,because it sounds familiar.I know the regular music is a remix of Lockjaw's Locker,but is the Squiddicus music a remix of that too or something else?
+Bowser Koopatron Yes, it's also a remix of Lockjaw's Saga! :)
***** Ok,thanks.I thought it was a remix,& now I hear it more in there.1 of the awesome underwater themes.
If I can make a Super Mario Tropical Burn then for this 4th world called Deep Sea Cove, instead of a giant octopus, how about a giant squid?
Pulpodioso es tan picado que siguió a DK a toda una isla lejos de su hogar para acabarlo en su cumpleaños. ¿Qué te hizo DK? ¿Ver como habías destruido un barco en la playa?
How do they get dixey to swim fast with kong?
It is a little hard to spot but on 1:50 I think you can make out a slight visage of Squiddicus's shadow, waiting for the Kongs. Far on the blue rock.
I can’t believe I’ve just beaten this level in hard mode first try
i r8 ir8 8 8/8 m8
Not really though. I give the stage more like a 4/8. Meh. Awesome music and visuals, but it wasn't very fun. The puzzle piece in the first octopus race section was annoying.
I was Stuck on this level for over 2 years💀
Ok i did it. my hands are sweating and i hated it but i did it.
At least the music is good when it takes you weeks to beat this level.
Enguarde should've been brought back for this game. 🙁
Absolutely
I freaking hate this level man. I don’t enjoy water levels in DKCTF I fear about drowning everytime I hear the beep noise.
I HATE ALL WATER LEVELS PERIOD
Top tier music
Lockjaws Saga 🔥
Damn that shit was so fucking hard
You missed one of the puzzle pieced 😂.
Everyone who says that this level in hard mode is fun hates good games
??? Sounds like a mega skill issue
@@madduxnagel6935 sounds like not playing this game on hard mode
The end is driving me insane
almost sounds like the margwa from black ops 3
Someone agree with me that this level is pure nightmare. Much more scary than two levels ago when we witnessed a murder from a hoot by a gill
I'd say average difficulty level - try the Dark Wold on Super Meat Boy (World 5 - Rapture / Dark World) thats hard, and in this game hard is 6-K (shit is annoying) lol the only thing annoying about this level is the very end part and that last puzzle piece.
6-K wasn't that hard tbh
@@44bigfreeze God in hard mode with only Donkey Kong Is super hard!I Lost more than 100 lives!(Sorry for my bad english I'm Italian)
Difficult? Buy a PlayStation and try to complete the very first Rayman lol
i can't get through this shit
This is an awesome level but the puzzle pieces suck
😲
only thing i hate about this game is how doofy they made donkey kong sound
***** He's a cartoon gorilla, he's gonna make cartoony sounds. What I hated was Sakurai giving him kaiju roars in Smash Bros.
Kong sounds alright, Kong likes to smash. Kong don't have time for your criticizing.
Donkey Kong's name basically means Stupid Monkey. So he's not exactly meant to be the most epic character.
I mean, he didn't sound too serious in the older games either.
This game is a joke. Ridiculously hard for the audience its targeted towards. My 6 year old cousin cant enjoy this game.
yet this has been critically acclaimed MANY (and I do mean many) lists consider it one of the best platformers of the last 2-3 years (and) one of the best for Wii U - granted I'm older (much older) and I've been playing platformers for 28 years but honestly I didn't have a problem after a few tries like anything LOL @ people who think a game is a joke b/c its hard you think THIS is hard ?

"This game is hard so it's bad"
Donkey Kong Country games have always been hard as fuck, didn't stop them from being my favorite games as a kid.
croxzy1 well then u didnt play dkc 2
i was 7 when i got it. it was hard as fuck but i made it and i was 7
This game is a cakewalk compared to literally any NES game
The 2 hidden puzzle pieces when youre running from him are ass lol
