The Mysteries of Conker's Bad Fur Day

I am going rogue from Rare for a video...the next one will be Rayman 2. But we will come back to visit some other Rare games.

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.

"The powers that be" I always saw as Greg's "bosses" as he says, "I'm just doing my job" These are some great theories and questions, haha. Great Video, man!

This game needed a sequel!! Hate that Nintendo just let Rare go like that!

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.

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.

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.

The panther King when you first meet him I always thought he was creepy and the way he acts and talks when you meet him again that he's not that bad it's just the first meeting when they break the table leg it's a little creepy I wonder if anybody felt the same way

Gregg’s scenes are my favorite part. Fantastic parody of the Grim Reaper

Cooper also has a cameo in Conker's Live and Reloaded, where he throws up into a toilette.

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! ❤

I just like how done with most of the NPCs Conker is a good chunk of the time. It’s pretty relatable if you’ve had to do annoying fetch quests before.

I used to think there must've been some cutscene or puzzle I somehow missed or forgot doing when I saw Marvin come in at the end all stitched up.

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.

The development/greenlighting of this game is also a mystery. But yeah, playing this growing up I thought about these, especially that lone villager running away, almost as if that was something accidentally left in after Conker stops being a bat. Also shouted out your channel in the chat of a Banjo Kazooie livestream.

I always wanted to look at a video where somebody's not dying in Conker's bad Fur Day I wonder what will happen if you beat the whole game if you don't die once

Here's a mystery: how did all of the events in the game take place in one day? Or was it actually just one day? Conker got knocked out quite a few times in the game, during the day and the night.

If squirrels can get away with as many lives as they can, then why can the army squirrels?
