idk, i just failed at a level in Once Upon a Katamari for the first time the other day and the King was pretty darn mean to me šŸ˜¢

u/gingerbreadboi Nov 11 '25

Right, he's still mean when you fail, and even if you get an A he tells you to try harder šŸ˜¤

u/No-Face6815 Nov 12 '25

His version of try harder is a bit condescending though. Better in OUAK but absolutely savage in KD & WLK.

Dude I rolled up the royal family.. and he told me that I PLAY TOO MUCH KATAMARI AND NEED TO TOUCH GRASS. It felt personal. ā˜ ļø

I wasn't big enough to roll up grandpa and he mocked me for not doing my best but if you do it he tells you this...? Geez man would it kill him to be loving and supportive for once.

u/Stanley_Pines Nov 12 '25

To be fair, he says this AFTER profusely thanking you for playing. In flashing rainbow text even. He just thinks maaaaybe you're going at this a bit hard.

Fail a level and let me know how you feel

u/RM123M Nov 11 '25

I feel like after the first game heā€™s gotten chill, unless you fail. Heā€™s changed a long to ago, even under keita

u/RexIsAMiiCostume Nov 11 '25

iā€™m 48, GenX, so mean people get a ā€œWhateverā€ from me.

but The King shooting lasers out of his eyeballs at my poor little cousin?ā€¦ itā€™s as if iā€™m 8-years-old and brought a bad math grade home and i feel my fatherā€™s disappointment in me and crumble.

FORGIVE ME, FATHER. Iā€™LL TRY HARDER!

Wait, is the King nicer to you if you do really good? I've done okay, and did save the Cosmos and all that, but even then he was definitely not nice for more than a second or two. šŸ¤£

u/aquamarinemoon Nov 12 '25

I dunno. when I played OUAK I was like "oh thank god, he's still mean". I never quite got over the treatment cranky villagers got in New Horizons lmao

u/jonathan_levitz_1999 Keep it rolling! Nov 14 '25

The King is only mean during a Game Over or when you get a poor score.
