Soulfulness is in the eye of the beholder

is this the new (You) farming tactic

try harder nigger

Shills

Ok

I think it has plenty of soul

What is the definition of "shill" to the types of people who make these posts?

What a disgusting opinion, OP.

fuck off

Shit thread.

Shit post

If you can’t accept constructive criticism then you don’t belong here

That's okay. Time to fix your thread.

it is

Look it's not the games fault it's Dracula's slave.

of course it's soulless why would I want ghosts haunting my game?

>constructive criticism
>with meaningless, nebulous buzzwords
Maybe next time you should also say how it "lacks charm" or isn't "comfy."

We need an "Essential Soullesscore" image. It'll be top tier bait.

Op

We need to know what games you think have soul

Not every game needs to be Dark Souls, asshole.

Posters like you removed from this board would increase its quality.

I need to play the other 3d marios before I get Odyssey.

What's the best way to play Super Mario 64? I'm about to hack my 3ds so it's possible to hit up the DS version but idk if it's inferior or not

OK. You have an opinion. That's fine.

Now... EXPLAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Game is easier than the original Spyro on PS1. Odyssey is babbies first platformer.

Soulless is officially a buzzword, well done.

I think it is probably a fine game.
But I watched people play it and it doesn't seem anywhere near as challenging as 64 or Sunshine.
It seems that the largest challenge is esoteric puzzles to get moons that many would not even recognize as a puzzle because of their optional nature.

Holy shit how dead is your inner child OP

Were you molested as a kid?

Don't fucking bump the thread

projecting pretty hard there 'eh

...

>soulless

I never want to see this word here again unless someone is talking about abel's ultra 1

actually, fuck abel, I never want to see this word again

We really need a PSA on posting with sage. 75% of the newfags don't know how to use it and 20% try to convince you it doesn't work.

Only someone with no soul would say this.

wow that's just soulless

Whatever gets them those (you)s

>[Insert Switch exclusive here] is souless, barren, lifeless and empty
>muffled BING BING WAHOO in the distance

this, save for a few parts the game is so simplistic and easy it gets boring.

These images sum up nintendo fans so perfectly. How can they lack so much self-awareness that they think showing off Odyssey's in-game normiebook photo filters is helping their argument? This shit is extremely cringey.

now shop the whiiir post in the background

64 was challenging only because everyone at the time was terrible at 3D platformers, having zero experience with them. Sunshine was retarded easy except for the parts where you couldn't use FLUDD. Try harder.

it's a requirement of making an open-world "sandbox" game

Back to fixing your shitty thread.

>the largest challenge is esoteric puzzles
There aren't any really difficult moons. There is even a hint system built into the game and the locations of post-game moons are marked on the map.

this would be a valid criticism for any recent mario EXCEPT this one
miyamoto's mario lacks soul, koizumi's is jam-fucking-packed
try playing the game you fucking shitposter

I wanna bounce my fat hairy ass on your cock and drain your balls into my unwashed colon forever.

I wanna cut your fucking dick off and make you eat it like you do with your father's sperm

That's pretty gay bro.

Well, of course it doesn't have a soul. It's a video game. Games don't have souls.

I think it just has terrible art direction and music. its sound design and polish are ridiculous though, but those two later things just make the first two things that much worse.

Sure thing my dude

>stop liking the thing i dont like

>Terrible art direction and music
Literal shit taste detected.

I think OP is dickless.

But you can't have my hole mods. It's for real men only.

this thread reminds me I still haven't played galaxy 2.

>this would be a valid criticism for any recent mario EXCEPT this one

Not OP and while I disagree with OP, the director of Odyssey is the same guy who directed 3D World. 3D World is definitely not on the same level as NSMB stuff.

bestiality and gay sex yum yum come on boys lets go.

video games are so fucking sexy anus get penis boy fat dog knot.

A game cannot have something that it cannot possibly have by definition and doesn't even exist in the first place.

I really don't understand why they made it so easy.

To get to the ending, a game should at least offer SOME resistance. I am far from the best player and I don't recall a single time where I had to try hard to get through an obstacle.

The tick-tock clock is a good example of what I wanted. Not insanely hard, but you have to actually try.

The mods are faggots

Shit mods ruin Sup Forums

I know exactly what you mean and I completely agree. Peach's castle was a nice touch but everything else is grim.

Oddysea really shines after the ending though, you literally experience only like 30% of the game, 70% of the really amazing content is the post content, but I am sure your autism is holding you back from keep going.

Except all that content was funneled into the rest of the level. Still hurts as a lorefag, tho

I was specifically talking about the main game though.

You may like that all the challenging stuff is at the very end but I do not.

Hell, even in Sunshine you had to go through some nice challenging levels without FLUDD if you wanted to beat the game. In odyssey you literally won't die once if you are competent.

No, THIS is soulless.

>really shines after the ending

maybe they can put that shit in the beginning instead of wasting my time.

>people call out the spamming of "nintendo games have no soul" thread
>the spammer's response to this
>"fuckin shills"

MY SIDES

While Sunshine still holds spot for one of my favorite games, you're vastly over estimating how difficult it was.

Yea it kinda is especially those awful looking pipe levels. Looks like some unity engine shit. I think it was rushed out for christmas

Anything Japanese that isn't tainted by western influence i.e. anything Nintendo/Crapcom.

Are you this desperate for (You)s?

Is souless different from lifeless?

I think I finally understand guys. I finally figured out why people call Super Mario Odyssey "soulless".

You have this Mario game that's doing new stuff. You can possess enemies. You can run around a realistic metropolis. There's a lyrical main theme a la Sonic Adventure. This should all be exciting stuff, but once you get into the game it just becomes the same old shit once again.

Don't get my wrong, I love Mario 64, Sunshine, and the Galaxies, but after being outright spoiled by the level design and creativity of the Galaxy games, going from that to an 800+ Moon scavenger hunt is the worst shit. Mario can possess enemies this time around, but the story does absolutely nothing with this fact. This just isn't natural. If this was about literally any other character in fiction gaining the ability to slip into peoples' bodies freely they'd go a least a LITTLE BIT into the ethics of doing so. Mario just seems like an asshole in this game no joke, and nobody seems the least bit afraid of him. Its disingenuous, and combine this with all the self-aware throwback shit sprinkled althroughout the adventure, and BAM soulless video game.

No, that's 3D World.

That said, I'm struggling to latch onto anything in this game emotionally due to the ending. Especially with all the goddamn marketing buildup of what SHOULD HAVE BEEN some plot advancement for once in 10 goddamn years.

Give the halfassed not-Zelda the GOTY, just to spite that shit.

So it's a buzzword that means nothing?

At least you don't think this game is shill-less.

But did you find Rosalina?

Everything clashes in the visuals and the music should be a bit more upbeat and catchy. I mean its a mario game not BOTW

>Everything clashes in the visuals
Everyone that posts this just convinces me more and more that this board has no concept of what clashing visuals are.

>If this was about literally any other character in fiction gaining the ability to slip into peoples' bodies freely they'd go a least a LITTLE BIT into the ethics of doing so
that's not why people say it's soulless. mario games aren't supposed to get philosophical, are you fucking kidding me? mario games are great because they focus on the gameplay and keep story to a bare minimum. in odyssey you can possess things with the hat, and it's only intended to be simple fun, because it's a video game and not a movie. it's not supposed to be thought-provoking because that kind of thing doesn't enhance a mario game, it only muddles it

They renovated it.

you, have cartoon humans next to sims, next to indie polygon characters, realistic animals, and classic mario enemies.

People gave sonic shit for doing this across multiple games and mario goes and does it all in one and somehow it gets a pass.

The game looks as though nintendo were trying to create a bunch of new ips that didnt work out and just said "hey lets just slap them into mario to speed up development". It's really that fucking bad and posting screens of the main characters won't change the fact that all this stupid shit exists in the same game.

>being this autistic over a fucking mario game

It's more of how many artstyles there are in the game. That's a legitimate criticism when you're talking plastic palm trees contrasted against a goddamn scaly fuckass and gritty stonework.

I don't care how much you try to rationalize it in a world where golden coins hover in midair and so on, it's artistically jarring to any real life audience.

People gave sonic shit for doing it across multiple games because sonic did it like shit. We have sonic, a giant cartoon hedgehog, tongue fucking a human girl. Meanwhile in Odyssey (It's literally in the title for fuck's sake) we're traveling around the world visiting unique locations each that are meant to convey how different they are.
>How many art styles
The art style throughout the entire game is consistent aside from ruined kingdom. The same textures and quality models are used throughout the entire game. This all sounds like nothing more than shitposting.

If I travel around the world im not gonna see cartoon midgets and polygon people though. Think of how much better it would have been if they did the world traveling idea with a consistent style and throwbacks to old games that don't get any attention. Oh wait that could take some actual effort nevermind

>aside from the Ruined Kingdom
>LEMME JUST MOVE THESE GOALPOSTS A LITTLE

Lost, Shiveria, Volbona, and Mushroom are cartoony with simple textures and bright colors.
Cascade, Bonneton, Cloud, Tostarena, Bubblaine, Lake, Bowser, and the Moon are moderately detailed with duller colors than those.
Metro and Ruined have decidedly less color and are greatly detailed by comparison.

You are out of your mind to even think about calling this shitposting when you're over here committing logical fallacies and not even making the small leap that literal children can deduce.

should I start filtering soulless?
The fuck does that even mean

WTF

...

What's the worst argument?

Defending a game as "fun" or shitting on it for being "souless?"

>It's a poorly-made Nintendo bait thread
>Nintendies go all-out taking it
Every fucking time. You fags need to realize that you don't have to reply to these things.

This is a shitty thread.

They both have different souls.
Actually I don't see the difference can you elaborate with gameplay vids or how you came to this conclusion.
They both look good to me

>throwbacks to old games that don't get any attention. Oh wait that could take some actual effort nevermind
How is reusing an idea more effort than coming up with a new one?

Tell me about this new meme of calling nintendo games soulless.

>Think of how much better it would have been if they did the world traveling idea with a consistent style and throwbacks to old games that don't get any attention

How many games do you need to play that stroke your nostalgia boner before you accept that you're not a child anymore?

you've succeeded in getting plenty of (You)s
