Some of the assets look like they were straight up lifted from the UE4 marketplace. It’s like the game can’t quite decide what it wants to be.

>Short campaign
>Unrewarding gameplay
>Stupid hat gimmick
>Mediocre stage design

Could have been worse but I was expecting much better.
Mario 64 2 when?

>Cites Mediocre stage design
>Wants Mario 64 2.

>>short campaign

Maybe if you rush through it, sure, but I got over 35 hours with the main campaign

None of that matters, it's a mainline Mario game so it's good.

>featherless t-rex
I could imagine you made this thread just to say this.
It got a chuckle out of me

This. do you even know who mario is? it's like suggesting Godfather 3 or Indiana Jones 4 isn't coherent.

desu it is a little baffling how such an otherwise wacky and forward-thinking game ended up using a scaly rex

T-Rex are way too large to have had feathers. Something that size would generate more than enough body heat that feathers would more likely harmful than helpful.

>doesn't know feathers don't work the way fur does and actually help animals cool off
>hasn't heard of dilong, guanlong, or yutyrannus
oh honey

What 64 pulled off with it limitations was amazing.
What do you have in SMO? Fucking first stage is just a spiral to the top. 64 had a spiral to the top but still had more of a stage to explore around it.
O's dessert stage is just a fucking empty bumpy wasteland. 64's dessert is condensed so you waste no time traversing nothing.
64 had awesome water stuff. O's water world is one giant fucking pool.
New Donk City is pretty cool. BUT 64 has like an entire game of cool stages.

>jarring mix of real animals and cartoony characters
This was intentional to make you feel like you're adventuring into the unfamiliar, and the graphics are still good.
>naturalistic settings mixed with blocky platforming elements
This statement is misleading. Sure, they are in the same game, but the blocky platforming segments are sectioned off from the rest of the level for quick challenges.
>sonic rings
lol what?
>featherless t-rex
how is that an issue? Are you grasping for straws at this point?
>switching between 2D and 3D
And it works fine
>that last part
try harder next time you shitpost

Just because they're not as effective at trapping heat as fur does not mean that they trap heat at all.

In English, Einstein.

You already made this post

>featherless t-rex
Why don't crocs have feathers?

a t rex wearing feathers is like you wearing a jacket in the middle of the summer in arizona

it's hot enough already, you're gonna fucking die

The Lost Kingdom Theme is so fucking good. I like the New Donk City theme but it reminds me too much of bacano even though bacano was good. Just feels weird,

>Stupid hat gimmick

Fuck off.

It's colder on a second floor than in a first floor, so your analysis makes no sense, retard. A T-rex is taller than me so him wearing a jacket makes sense. This is why astronauts wear those white suits in space so they can protect themselves from the cold.

Those white suits are only like 1mm thick, ya dingus, your shirt is better at keeping you warm.

If Sonic did this, they would've been mocked relentlessly for their blunder.
Oh wait, that already happened.

It is stupid you fucking baby.

...

Reptiles don't generate body heat.

Dinosaurs weren't true cold blooded animals.

Says who? I didn't know we had people that saw them in person.

>>Short campaign
I hate this meme.

It takes way longer to 100% Odyssey than it does 64 or Sunshine.

You might already know this but dinosaurs and now birds are warm-blooded, feathers weren't just for keeping a body warm.
Dinosaurs aren't reptiles.
Correct.
I wonder why? Maybe it's because they're not dinosaurs.
Archaeology.

Is this copy pasta>?

This is copy pasted shit.

Says the square cubed law. Nothing can be that large and run around and not generate shittons of body heat.

Get over it, fags. There will never be a Mario game as good as Mario 64...mainly because of how revolutionary it was bringing Mario into 3d and also because of nostalgia.

I too wish Nintendo could top Mario 64, but they never will. That game was a literal masterpiece so stop trying to compare.

Genuinely didn't know this.
I stand corrected.

You should go to /agdg/ and make a team for a true spiritual sequel to SM64.
