banjo-tooie is a metroidvania if you think about it

jokes aside, a worthy sequel to BK despite the differences in tone and some things that haven't aged the greatest. one day i'll beat the final boss on the original version the cheatless way. fps controls are hell on a n64 controller.

probably also worth mentioning that this game introduced me to the concept of death when i was like. 6 or 7. yes, young gen was scarred to the point where i didn't play this game for a week after witnessing bottles the mole die on screen. thanks, rare!
