Personally i liked DK2 the most since it fealt more like a dungeon and less of a animal den.
Seriously how many non humanoid creatures you had in DK1?
The beginning wasn othing bus spiders beatles flies and those tiny demon things... maybe a warlock or two when you get a library.

In DK2 your dungeon is more of a dungeon manned by humanoid creatures (instead of being an insect hive) but also gets new rooms that make the place feel more alive... like the casino (that's also capable of making you money).

Oh and this thread is in the right place.
If you want to make a thread in Other Games then it scould be about a game... and i refuse to call Dungeon Keeper Mobile a game or acknowledge it as one.

I liked the original better, because it seemed to take itself a lot more seriously. Also, the narrator guy didn't sound like he was mocking me :P.

Thats actually one of the thing I liked more about DK1 - all the non humanoid creatures. Warlocks and libraries are boring, insect-hive/animal-den ftw.

Although I remember the first person mode in DK1 being a sea of incomprehensible pixels.

I actually preferred the humanoid creatures. Made me feel like I had cronies and disciples rather than running a zoo for the curious. That's actually a BIG gripe I have with WTFO now. It's monsters, while unique, seem uninspired. An ugly thing that pounds an anvil with its face to make stuff. A monster that help but remind of a Chrysalid. A strangely proportioned goblin. There's others, but nothing so much like the Dark Knight, the Torturer or anything iconic really.

Is the use of the Bullfrog emblem supposed to be some sort of sick joke on EA's part?

I liked DK2 more personally, I liked the narrator more for his snide cunning, and the creatures for being a little more fun in first person... Both great games though.

Yes, they are openly mocking the fanebase. Enjoy that.

I think its trying to stick the blame for it on a dead developer. Which would fit your description.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Or maybe that's one developer who is either stealthily saying "Sorry guys, I had to watch this happen too" to fans....or who is totally deluded in thinking this is an homage to the other games.

I'm not the only one that finds EA using the Horned Reaper, a literal demon to convince people to spend money on micro-transactions funny?

If it was the real horned reaper, it would kill you for not paying.

Horny didn't ask for payment, just gems, artifacts and bloodshed... Come to think of it he was pretty damn dworfy.

This makes a lot of sense.

On the debate of whether DK 1 or 2 is better, I'm really torn between them.
I like the "monsters" over the humanoids (Ok, mostly just the demon spawn ITS SO ADORABLE)
I miss the ghosts that were in the first game. (I loved those guys so much.)
I preferred when creatures got more than 4 attacks, unlike the second game.
I like the art styles of both.
The second one felt more... natural to me.

There's more, but then I'd be ranting.

In any case, this abomination needs to die.
