Rayman 2 was so different from all the other 3D platformers at the time. Loved it while growing up

The developers told us why Banjo is mounted in the Cock and Plucker. The Rare Development teams were separate in separate barns. The teams in these barns were very competitive with eachother. Mounting Banjo on the wall was a jab at the barn that developed Banjo-Kazooie.

Finally there's someone who still make videos about conker

The biggest mystery to me are the other portraits in Count Batula’s mansion. The big portrait in the dining room is Batula’s forefather, (Also watch Jiggy’s overthinking it video where he theorizes that Conker is more than just a squirrel) but the other squirrels in the portraits aren’t even mentioned. One of them looks red like the forefather portrait, and just like that one, it looks like an old Twelve Tales render of Conker but heavily edited, while another one is this grey old looking squirrel who to me looked like he could’ve been some sort of scientist.

One of the best games even the characters are next level

When I first got to the fight with the giant teddiz robot with the girl attached on my playthrough, my immediate assumption was that the concept was akin to an anglerfish (more literal) or a siren (less literal), much like a context sensitive button, an enemy tailored to take advantage of the character, in this case Conker, the idea being to draw him in to take him out more easily. This seems to be reinforced by his own behavior during that sequence of events. To me, it seemed like they had grafted a sort of animatronic onto the larger 'bot and given it the ability to speak, along with a false persona, to back up the act it was meant to portray, like a sort of mechanical siren. Obviously, that's a very generous likening, as it's not like it was an animatronic of Berri or some other attractive squirrel, but in this case it was more sinister; a youngster seeming to be in trouble and needing an adult to save her, but turned out to be the bait for a trap, set for someone with a kind heart rather than selfish motives. Maybe I was completely incorrect in my on-the-spot assessment, but it struck me as kind of deep at the time; of course I may have been reading too much into it. Either way, CBFD had the best multiplayer on the N64.

The giant hands are the powers that be

Here’s a small theory I have, Conker is so upset about Berri’s death not because he truly loved her, but it was his fault that she died. First off it’s implied that Conker and Berri’s relationship is on the rocks with Conker constantly coming home late due to his time at the local pub, and the games manual commenting on their relationship not lasting long. Second the final third of Bad Fur Day deconstructs Conker’s selfish behavior a lot. He goes to batula’s home for an inheritance he gets turned into a bat and only gets $100 out of the whole mess, joins the army to have the country indebted to him? The only reward he gets is PTSD from the War. So at the end of the game Conker gets a gaurentted chance to revive berri and he only thinks about himself leading him to lose her permanently. I think it’s pretty accurate considering in the planned sequel Conker would’ve moved on from Berri by the end of the game and would’ve found a true companion in Bunni. But that’s just my take.

It make me feels so upset that the sequel got cancelled when Microsoft sold Rareware! I would like the sequel is coming and i would like that the sequel is about when Conker gonna do his quest to revived Berri. Poor Berri! She doesn't deserved to gets dead murdered and turned into a cyborg and joined the dark side in the cancelled sequel, and poor Conker since he doesn't deserved to gets forggoten along with Banjo.

@@jiggylookback It’s something I think about when reading the planned story for OBFD in that Conker realizes he has true friends in Franky, Fangy and Chambert after getting killed due to his love of Money (and a plot by Greg and the Panther King.) where the 4 of them escape the afterlife together with Bunnie in tow (Who we actually see Conker developing a relationship with) and eventually the ending of the game has Conker essentially burying his past mistakes by actually working together with the Panther King and both metaphorically and literally putting his relationship with Berri behind him by defeating her. It’s kind of why that I feel the idea games ending wouldn’t have hit so much harder if Bunnie didn’t randomly become a Zombie at the end, let me explain 1. It doesn’t make any sense considering the rest of Conker’s Allie’s and Conker himself are also undead, 2. It hits so much harder that Conker is finally putting his past behind him and moving on even planning settling down with Bunni but right when he’s about to find happiness the Clone Berri essentially brings his past back one last time to haunt him.

If i remember right, the Live and Reloaded multiplayer has cutscenes at the end of the rounds and one of them shows the squirrels shooting a bazooka at the weasel doctor (back then he was a tedy general) and he loses both of his legs at that moment. So at least that mistery is solved or retconned by Live and Reloaded depending on how you look at it.

I like that alternative Time Line theory about Banjo and that gives me an idea. Grunty doesn't merely settle Tooty's looks. She wants to destroy all of Spiral Mountain so she starts a war that goes on for years. The good side is lead by Ugly Tooty, Sgt. Jamjars, Humba Wumba, and Mumbo Jumbo. Bottles ends up being the first causality.

These are some interesting theories! I had this theory that milk is pretty powerful in their universe. I mean, why would there be a war called the “Milk Wars” in the first place. Besides, Panther King sure loves milk, and I believe that’s because the milk gives power. Maybe this beverage makes one live longer! I also believe the Professor had gotten his hands on some milk, making him live for so long. Another thing that stumbled me was the Little Girl, but for a different reason. She says about her being Conker’s daughter. I wonder if this is true or not, she does look similar to both Berri and Conker. I can’t wait to see more videos from you! ❤

So from what I know it just makes it so you don't get the cutscene of meeting grimm and no access to the extra squirrel tail lives due to not dying. The tails won't be displayed in any spots they normally are if you play on chapters mode and jump to a later level since it's a "fresh" save unattached to a main player save and therefore has 0 deaths in game (easy way to find out how this works)

Didn't see anyone comment this, so figured I may as well... The reason the girl's name is Regan is because she's a reference to The Exorcist. the whole head-spinning around, and the being a cute girl, only to start cussing in a deep/evil voice, that's all a reference to that movie. So, her being named that makes perfect sense. As to where the sources are from for her canonically having that name, no clue. Could just be a fan-name that stuck. Anyway, great video. Surprised there wasn't any speculation about what was supposed to be going on with the Windmill or where Conker & Berri's place (or the Cock & Plucker, for that matter) was supposed to be in relation to where the game took place...

Prior to the release of Live & Reloaded its not explained which village the villagers who raided Batulas mansion came from since there isn't one in the N64 version but there is one in the Xbox remake which makes more sense. Also I think the squirrel who commits suicide is female Im pretty sure of it. I also wonder what the origins are of the Dragon God in Uga Buga are and what Don Weaso, the weasel mafia boss, was doing in the world of the game to begin with. Like how long had he known the Panther King and owned the Rock Solid dance club and how long he knew Berri as well. Also the Xbox remake of the game contains an additional though inaccessible passageway in the Windy area. That could actually be where Conker came from the Cock & Plucker since there are no areas in the N64 game leading either to or from the C&P. Ah well. Great video though
