I also played it recently, and it's more than some shitty levels later on, 80% of the game is a fucking mess. Worst 3D platforming levels ever in a major platforming game. The thing that saves it is the Mario charm and setting.
Huh interesting. Sunshine is the only one I can't bring myself to finish. To me, it's just not fun. I think the controls aren't great, the setting is boring (what ARE those citizens supposed to even be?) and the water mechanic is clunky as hell. For me, it's just a complete slog to play.
But Bubsy ain't a major platforming game. I'm talking the big stuff, like Mario, Rayman, Banjo etc...
Mario Galaxy is a much simpler game than the previous 3D Marios and the trend continued with 3D Land and World that kept making core mechanics more streamlined to chase after the 2D Mario audience. Odyssey made Mario's movement deep and satisfying to master again and hopefully they keep expanding on traversal options in the next games while making basic platforming more challenging than in Odyssey.
Yeah. Ive been trying to beat mario sunshine foe the past 19 yrs. Ive 100 percented every other 3d mario game but i always give up on sunshineHuh interesting. Sunshine is the only one I can't bring myself to finish. To me, it's just not fun. I think the controls aren't great, the setting is boring (what ARE those citizens supposed to even be?) and the water mechanic is clunky as hell. For me, it's just a complete slog to play.
I never knew it had hardcore fans.
I really wish they’d sell Bowser’s Fury as a separate game for £19.99 on the store. I really want to play it but I didn’t like 3D Land/World.
It's way better than Odyssey. Odyssey was boring and dull.
That's exactly what they did with Galaxy, and 3D World. They limited camera movement in both games to make it easier for people to play.
The basic translation is that the next 3d Mario will probably be open world.
Miyamoto wants the next 3D Mario game to ‘further expand’ the series | VGC
The success of Odyssey convinced the designer that 3D games can appeal to a wide audience…www.videogameschronicle.com
Speaking during a Q&A following the publication of its latest financial results last week, Miyamoto said that the success of Super Mario Odyssey had made it clear that the company was succeeding in its attempt to make 3D Mario games playable by a larger audience.
When asked about the differences between 2D and 3D Mario games, Miyamoto explained that the New Super Mario Bros series was designed to create a Mario game that was accessible to players of all skill levels, because the 3D games weren’t at the time.
“Let me explain by describing the background for the development of the Wii game New Super Mario Bros Wii, which was released in 2009,” Miyamoto said.
“At the time, it felt like each time we created a new instalment in the Super Mario series – which by then had expanded into 3D – it became more complicated.
“After the release of Super Mario Galaxy in 2007, the goal was to develop a more accessible 3D Super Mario game, and the result was New Super Mario Bros Wii, a basic side-scrolling Super Mario game that even new players could easily play. That later led to the release of the even simpler Super Mario Run game (a mobile application released in 2016.)
“When we develop software, we strive to incorporate new elements, but at the same time we want to make it easy for even first-time players to have fun.
“Recently, people of all generations have been enjoying the 3D Mario game Super Mario Odyssey (released in 2017), so for 3D Mario going forward, we want to try expanding further in new ways.”

And the next game will have Mario voiced by Chris Pratt! LFG!
The frame rate a d resolution was horrible though. They couldn't release a game which ran so bad.
