Why is everyone upset that Game Overs don't exist in Super Mario Odyssey? This is a sign that Nintendo is adapting and deciding to switch up the formula. Having no Game Overs is a modern requirement for most games these days.
Bloodborne has 0 Game Overs. You die and respawn.
GTA has 0 Game Overs. You die and respawn.
Now Nintendo is finally bringing Mario over to modern times. How is this a bad thing?
John Kelly
Yeah it's fair instead of wasting lives you waste your money
Nolan Morales
if you get game overs at Mario you're fucking shit at video games
Hunter Fisher
I haven't Game Over'd in a Mario game since Sunshine. They practically didn't exist anymore anyway unless you suck that much at Mario.
Bentley Phillips
>you waste your money
That you do.
Justin Murphy
Also, Game Overs didn't do anything in 3D World except bring you back to the title screen. You kept all of your progress.
GAME OVER is extinct.
Gavin Sullivan
I'm fairly certain the only thing a game over did in Mario 64 was put you back outside. There's very few instances where levels actually had checkpoints, I think.
Mason Ward
...
Isaiah Jackson
Tell that to the Crash remaster.
Daniel Jackson
Game overs haven't even meant anything for a while now. In 64 it just puts you back outside the castle instead of barfing you back out of the painting
Jack Robinson
A respected industry legend once said that game overs are a failure of the game designer.
Caleb Miller
too bad Beyond: Two Souls was a failure
Parker Brown
>Wahh Nintendo added easy babby mode >Literally every recent game that has done this has also added completely fuck hard segments or a batshit insane post-game mode
Yeah man Donkey Kong Returns was SUCH a cakewalk with that OPTIONAL super mode
Let me tell you, all of the special world in 3D Land and World was just total babby shit, oh man
Asher Edwards
shots fired
Alexander Parker
And that game is literally older than half the posters on Sup Forums.
Wyatt Sullivan
>fuck up >get sent back >fuck up multiple times >get sent further back there's nothing wrong with this
Anthony Cook
Yeah people are jumping the gun when they haven't played the game, lives themselves are a relic of arcade times.
Carter Ramirez
Champion's Road was fantastic.
Liam Cook
And that's why it got a 6/10 folks.
Gavin Allen
There weren't any gameovers is Wario Land 2 and that was still a fucking excellent game.
Chase Nguyen
Doesn't the Crash remaster let you save whenever you want?
Jackson Price
It's a remake of an old game. They're just staying true to the ancient game design as much as possible.
Jeremiah Hall
>HAHAHA RAYMAN LEGENDS DOESN'T HAVE LIVES WHAT IS THIS BABBY SHIT
It's amazing how much I btfo'd my friend with how torque-wrench-on-your-dick hard Legends and Origins was.
Nathan Lopez
Champion's road is literally the only difficult level
Wyatt Hill
no game overs != no punishment. People are silly
Daniel Brown
>Now Nintendo is finally bringing Mario over to modern times. How is this a bad thing?
You're right that game overs aren't necessary, but games need some kind of repercussion or tooth. Otherwise they don't feel alive. I'd say you need something at least like a game over screen.
Getting rid of game overs is bad if it's just an example of over-sterilizing games, like when Ubisoft made a Prince of Persia that had no dying or repercussion at all. This is a formula for the least exciting game possible (but there's still "muh comfy", right retards?).
Isaac Lopez
Dying over and over again and having to respawn at a checkpoint is enough punishment.
Having to start a level all over again isn't fun and becomes a chore.
Levi Davis
Kys nintenbro
Aaron Ward
It serves no purpose but to waste your time.
Logan Butler
Well I needed reasons not to be hype for this after 3D World and there it is. I dont know how people enjoy games this easy, where is the fun and engagement? I fail to understand that
Cooper Peterson
Maybe instead of game overs, there should be another form of punishment.
For example, if you die, you usually respawn at a checkpoint.
If you die too many times, you lose that checkpoint. Die even more and you start at the beginning but still keep all of the items you have collected.
Another way to punish gamers is to maybe add more enemies each time you respawn...or a special enemy that only attacks the respawned character.
Brody Sanchez
so is starting from a checkpoint instead of close to where you died
Benjamin Gutierrez
I will never understand why you faggots sperg out over something that doesn't affect you
>Oh wow this totally optional block that beats the game for me and fucks up my save file like a bitch is RUINING MY EXPERIENCE
Did you whine and moan about the easy modes in older games too? Probably not, you probably weren't around back then.
>Ugh I can't believe Mega Man 2 has a NORMAL and DIFFICULT UGH
Jayden Phillips
You have to be 18 or older to post here.
Jonathan Thompson
I am reasonably certain that I haven't gotten a game over in any Mario game since the 2nd one (the Doki Doki one).
I don't know if it even exists in Super Mario World and I play that all the time.
Lincoln Perez
WHAT IF EACH TIME YOU FALL OR GET HURT, YOU JUST INSTANTLY RESPAWN IN A BUBBLE.
NO DEATHS, NO LOST COINS OR LIVES, JUST RETURN TO WHERE YOU LEFT OFF IN A BIG BUBBLE
Leo Reed
>people already complaining about how this will apparently lead to a weak young generation unprepared for life all because you can't die in a video game deja vu
Blake Brooks
When a game gives you a piss easy option in place of the usual gameplay, it gives people a conscious feeling that they're taking the hard way out on purpose and it feels like shit.
Carson Mitchell
how the fuck do you game over in mario usa the slot machine barfs up lives i had like 9 by the end of the second world
Ayden Cook
PUT ME IN THE scegsjanm
Jace Stewart
>You don't have to walk a slightly longer distance every once in awhile if you fuck up? COMFIRMED CASUAL-SHIT NINTENBROS BTFO XD
Brandon Ramirez
They should also get rid of dying as that would really make the game flow better like Gone Home. I was so disappointed when I played Crash and I "lost." This is definitely a step in the right direction though.
Nolan King
Nintendo should justg remove controls all together and just make it a movie with play, pause and fast forward controls. It's essentially the same thing and playing modern mario games anyway
Liam Lopez
Get over it fag. I've stomped the shit out of Bayo and W101 on the hardest difficulty and if people wanna play it on baby mode, I'm not losing any sleep at night.
I'm afraid you have autism.
Nathan Cox
was this actually a thing in 3D World? I only played a little bit of multiplayer in that game and I don't remember it bubbling dead players.
Nolan Walker
>Having to start a level all over again isn't fun and becomes a chore.
If the game isn't a walk in the park loaded with filler, and actually has some depth, it can be really satisfying to make multiple attempts at a level and eventually succeed (in other words, you experiment). Losing your progress can be frustrating, if not crushing in some games, but the threat of lost progress is exciting, and if you do lose, you can try some new ideas out next attempt.
If you can't do radically different approaches each time, there's still satisfaction in playing through a level more gracefully and aesthetically than the last time.
Evan Cox
It's been a thing since New Super Mario Wii.
The fucker didn't mention if the last person alive also dies or bubbles, you lose.
Adrian Flores
If someone fell and still had lives, they would bubble back up. Only if another player was still alive though.
Jose Edwards
they would but Sony already patented it
Brandon Lee
It wasn't funny the first time m8.
Eli Cox
But this is the future.
Bubbles forever. No losing.
Sebastian Powell
Just saying it's less fulfilling that way. You do you, faggot.
Ryder Martin
Oh fuck
Mason Martinez
Game Overs are relic from the arcade era and should have been removed a long time ago.
Blake Collins
Super Mario Bubble World confirmed for 2019?
Hunter Rivera
the time has come
Bentley Stewart
>"I'll say what that one guy said again for (You)s!"
Brayden Bennett
That requires at least one person playing to not fuck up Plus, you eventually run out of lives and run out of bubbles
Christopher Miller
You faggots don't play the games you whine about. Those games get so fucking stupid bullshit hard towards the end, and sometimes even me and my friends need to bubble up to bullshit our way through jumps so we're not all bouncing off of each other and killing ourselves.
But maybe the person who wants to play it on super babby easy mode doesn't give a shit. Maybe they WANT to just fart through the game. Who the fuck cares? Why does it affect you?
You know how many pussy bitch games like mobile shit and gone home comes out, but yet we still seem to get shit like Bayo and Dark Souls? I thought easy games were gonna make hard ones suddenly stop existing?
Parker Bell
It might be useful to not think of it as punishment, but the fact that you have to put something on the line to get something back. The "game over" screen is just a form of your character's life being on the line, to a point where you might have to restart the entire game (which will never be outdated, despite what OP "thinks").
>If you die too many times, you lose that checkpoint. This would work well in an open-world game, or anything where you need to control territories. If it eventually took you to a fail-state (a game over screen) it would be better, otherwise you would just deform your save file more and more. Ideaz.
Joshua Smith
>Nintendofags defend this
Matthew Cruz
Why is this even news?
Games haven't been using the arcade standard for ages.
Caleb Green
Game developers need to actually understand this era in the first place before they go beyond it like it's some relic. Arcade game design is still some of the most exciting shit out there, and game-over screens aren't a small part of it either.
Jason Gonzalez
Only games that need game overs are arcade games.
Jaxon Jones
Game Overs should mean "Your time is up. More money please."
It completely makes sense in arcades.
In a home game you paid $60 for, Game Over isn't a proper term.
As mentioned, another form of punishment should take over.
Maybe getting raped could return to gaming.
Landon Baker
And I despise it when a game enables someone to do that so effortlessly, without encouraging them to actually challenge themselves. Hard games still come out, yes, but games as a whole have gotten much easier to market to the masses that have latched on to the genre in the last decade, this much is true.
Leo Wood
Game overs haven't existed in Mario in a long time now, with how the games hand you extra lives like syphillis in a brothel
Jonathan Thomas
I still have yet to see how this affects you, you absolute faggot
>but muh cashuals
Wyatt Diaz
souls series doesnt have a game over, whats your point?
Ayden Lewis
GOT EM
Leo Hernandez
Did you even read the OP post?
Tyler Rogers
The conscious effect it has on ME knowing the game is dumbed down for this reason. Difficulty modes are one thing, but when there's some kind of Looking For Raid shit in my UI or anything similar present in a game that I'm looking for that kind of hardcore experience in, it's demoralizing.
Andrew Cook
nope thats a repost of a earlier comment on a thread thats just sad reposting
Kevin Roberts
Devs should just add a mode that has game over stuff just to appease the fags who enjoy torture over fun. That way the people who enjoy fun are happy and the people who enjoy torture are still miserable, but slightly happy.
Owen Cooper
Do Game Overs even fucking matter in any modern Mario game? About as pointless as 1-ups at this point.
Carter Phillips
no whats the point of reading
Ethan Anderson
>Why is everyone You mean all of two people shitposting about it?
David Fisher
>Game Overs should mean "Your time is up. More money please."
Actually, good arcade games are made to be beat on one credit, unless they're some cynical piece of shit that deliberately fucks you over. Metal Slug turns into shit if you credit feed, 80% of the excitement comes from getting further and further in hostile territory that can throw a threatening surprise at you (only because you can get a Game Over). It's about making games exciting, not about how much the games cost.
I still like game overs a lot, they're just an extreme form of repercussion and they're exciting. Anyone that writes it off is just being retarded.
Jackson King
game over never did anything in Mario 64 other than make you have to walk the 45 seconds back to the painting inside.
Ryan Foster
>Oh no this game is hard, I-I'M NOT HAVING ANY FUN
John Phillips
@382977083
Thanks for the (you) DEEL DOE MAN.
Dominic Sanchez
you already made this joke
Mason Flores
Game overs are a dated mechanic. You don't ever see them in modern games and when you do, they're hardly a set back.
Mason Powell
If you call that torture, you must be some kind of irritable little fag yourself.
James Richardson
how could you be so exceptionally retarded
Jordan Bailey
Ever since 7th gen started I've constantly read on the internet about people complaining about casualization.
A lot of times that indeed was the case, however sometimes it was just something DIFFERENT which people criticized at first.
Evan Jackson
You literally made this joke earlier today and it wasn't even good then.
David Taylor
Game overs are just the loss of all progress. How will such a universal, general game design tool ever become dated?
Chase Morales
If the new Crash Bandicoot is anything to go by, they're just a formality. >game over >wanna start over from where you were but with 5 lives instead of 0? They also better lent themselves to games that didn't have saves.
Jordan Ross
@382977373
Oh yeah daddy, more (you)s for this irritable little fag!

Standard progression for nintentards. >Mario 3d world is hot soggy linear shit that no one likes >"Mario 64 was never good anyway!" (It is) >Nintendo doesn't host an e3 conference last year >"E3 is dying, it doesn't matter!" (It isn't) >Nintendo gives you infinite lives in Mario >"Lives are a dated mechanic!" (They aren't)
Jayden Harris
That's really does sound like a you problem. You might actually have autism.
>it's demoralizing It's a video game. How can a video game demoralize you?
Blake Sanders
People are actually triggered that Odyssey doesn't have a game over screen?
Adam Cox
Given how the worlds look to be designed, I'm not sure how much of an issue this it. It's checkpoint based, but even if it wasn't the world is so open that there's no real trouble getting back to any specific point.
Charles Perry
You don't lose progress in 64 or Sunshine, game overs were meaningless there.
Lincoln Taylor
samefag alert
Andrew Kelly
When you get invested in something you like and it's dumbed down to the level of your typical middle of the bell curve dumbass, then it makes me feel like my experience is being insulted. This is not something only I feel either, ask anyone who played, say, World of Warcraft back in 2004 what they think of the game now. >You think differently from me so you must have autism Fuck off
Ian Wood
>I need to cast a billion useless spells and abilities or else it's not h4rdc0r3 enough for me

Well maybe NOW it does, but not so back in the old days of WoW
