DKC Atlas Forum

Why do you play the DKC series? I like to speedrun myself, play for entertainment, and play through my favorite levels. You get to pick your top 3 choices.

I just play the games since they're classic platformer games.

Plus simply to find everything in the games...

DKC has the best graphics for the SNES. It has great gameplay, music and a variety of levels!
I like to play them because they're fun.

I would like to play against my friends, but my friends don't like to play DKC.

One of us ought to add 'I like to discover glitches, and work out other unusual ways to play the game'. That would be my #1 by a long shot.

Otherwise, I like to discover things I've never found/noticed before, when I play DKC.

Yeah, but if I add that answer, would the poll restart?

From what I know, you'd have to restart the poll if you'd like to add another answer...

The thing I like to do the most in DKC is discover glitches! (Who DOESN'T like the feeling you get inside when you discover a glitch?) but since that's not in the poll, I play them to entertain myself. In fact, I liked to complete them all a million times so much, that I hadn't bought a videogame (or almost ANY other thing for entertainment) for 6 months!

Every few months, I like to spend a week or two playing through the series just because its fun and it makes me laugh.

the first option...but the option "i'd like discover glitches and etc" that qyzbud said, is a good option too

Um... Because it rules? Asking someone on DKC-atlas.com why they play Donkey Kong Country seems strange to me.

I play the series because it has that emotional, thought-provoking quality that nearly every other game lacks. I like to think of us DKC fans as the romantics of the twenty-first century; That is to say, we believe that truth is found in beauty, emotions, and spiritual enlightenment. Not a fat plumber in overalls.

Hmm... best graphics on the Snes. Check.
Characters I love more than any other because they're laid back and awesome, and not humans. Check.
Best.Music.Evar. Check.

For everything else, there's the master check.

That's pretty much why. I just really, really love them.

I play them just for the same reason I play any game: entertainment.
