>>719632413Does it matter that nobody's playing if millions of suckers bought the game already? They'll buy the next first party Nintendo title too, it's just how they are.
Honestly it's an ass racing game even before the online changes.>Drift has barely any impact at all because they want to funnel you into the new gimmick by making core racing mechanics weak as shit>All of the actual wallriding is on-rails and speeds you up to a comical extent to make sure taking turn on the absolute outside of the curve is somehow viable>Input to start wallriding with the straight foward drift is AIDS
>>719632681It does if Nintendo planned for dlc
Ipen world in a Mario Kart game was always a terrible idea but since BOTW and Odyssey were home runs, they thought it would be a goldmine. Stupid.
>>719632413>>lobbies are emptyliterally a lie.
>>719634059I don’t know why people lie about that
>>719632769You think the cultists aren't buying the dlc?
>>719634059>>719634403ive noticed iteven top mk worlds streamers all say thatwhy do YOU niggers lie? So shitendo doesnt look bad?
>>719634501I’ve heard most people who actually play the game say the lobbies are almost always full, why are you lying
>>719634603>heardso you dont even play the game huh nigger? You worship shitendo but wont see the truth that ive seen with my literal eyesbut i guess that means that the top mario kart youtubers are lying too. Yes these “random people” aka famitsuniggers are more reliable than your own or the people that depend on this game for a livingdumbfuck
>>719634783Quit being so butthurt mario kart isn’t the flop you want it to be
>>719632413I wonder when we’ll see dlc
>>719634874i mean its literally losing to mk8d so yeah it kinda is
>>719635019It literally isn’t
>>719634603lobbies are usually half full. they yfill up around updates/events though. a bulk of the playerbase plays through discord lobbies to get better control of the map choices and race type.
8 is better, simple as.>more tracks>well chosen past tracks in case of remakes>better characters>no open world>no filler (in between tracks)Knock Out Tour is a good idea, but that's about it. You have giant tracks that seem to end too quickly.

>>719634059> tendie doesn’t know the difference between bots and humans being added to a raceIt takes ten minutes of watching someone stream this clusterfuck of a game to see why kart enjoyers have already gone back to 8. It’s a constant jump from one extreme to another - one minute you are getting nuked in the middle of the pack, another you are in front with a super wide road and nothing happening. One minute you are taking the arbitrary wall shortcuts, another minute you are driving in a literal straight line for several minutes. It’s a bad game. You can say it.

>why did mario kart worlds die?My group gave up on it after a single weekend. We played MK8 for literal years multiple times a month.World is kinda fun at best when you're doing the knockout race, but the "traditional" races are fucking awful and I cannot believe they got rid of the very traditional circuits that they've had in the game since MK1 on the fucking SNES. The bullshit "drive to the course, do 1 lap, drive to the next course" design ruined the game 100% and anyone that says otherwise is fooling themselves.Bring back traditional 3-5 lap circuits and the playerbase will skyrocket.

>>719637291Was genuinely surprised by how ass it was
>>719637235Same, I could have written that post. Nintendo is currently obsessed with open world and kiddifying everything beyond what was still pallatable to adults. All that World brings to the table is the Knock Out Tour, but that's it.>gigantic track on the horizon>get hyped>it ends quickly>"that was it?"That repeats so much during gameplayit's not even funny.
>>719637568>Nintendo is currently obsessed with open world and kiddifying everything beyond what was still pallatable to adults.MKW has the highest skill ceiling of any mario kart game though. The mechanics involved in the shortcuts and overall driving are absolutely phenomenal.
>>719637110I hate mario kart world.
>>719637806> highest skill ceilingThe meta is literally to wait at the start and NOT drive. Have you tendies even played this game?
>>719636923It only takes five minutes of play, but I doubt you faggot cheerleaders even lasted that long with the game yourselves.

>>719632751Wallriding is almost never viable unless your cutting a corner even harder than being on its edge. It's why the dk spaceport is so retarded because it has an area made for wall riding but since it's slower nobody uses it and just drive in a straight line. The only fast ability is the tony hawk grind but even that needs a few air tricks or a good corner cut to be faster than the real reason this shit sucks and that's just driving straight
>>719632413nintendo calculated the risks and knew their loyal cultist fanbase would buy the game anyway, even if it's $80 and was originally developed for the switch and then ported to switch 2

>>719636438>>719636374>>719636298Someone was absolutely stream sniping this fucker. That's God damn hilarious.
>Every map has its 3 lap variant>Game insists on intermission races when knockout tour is a thing>3 lap courses are fairly short on unmemorable, some recycled/repurposed from MK8D >No more vehicle customization I don't mind the intermission races every once in a while, but I don't think the open world gimmick was a good idea, certainly not worth the 80 USD tag price they are asking for it. It's clear nintendo wanted people to play these long ass tracks, but at the end you just end up driving forward on a straight line to the finish or to arrive to the lap course. I think they focused too much on the interconnection between the worlds and tracks and they sort of neglected the formula that has been in MK. Hopefully a future DLC adds better content. Ever since BOTW, Nintendo has gotten a boner for open world-esque games and the novelty of and open world MK wears off after a few hours. I fully expect the next 3D Mario to be more open world a-l-a Bananza.

You know Nintendo won the console wars when a game from the Wii U is selling like crazy 11 years after release.
>>719636298>>719636374>>719636438Man this game has 999 flaws but punishing baggers is not one of those (game is still a bagfest but that's another story)
>>719639264Bitch what are you talking about?This is the current world record:https://youtu.be/umECNTSFxTk?t=78
>>719640624Only problem is the console wars is just writhing around in a shitpit at this point while PC looks on and shakes its head.
>>719640827that's because shaking their head is more fun than all the games they buy but never play
>>719640624>>719640827"console wars"? You mean platform warring? Primarily from PC fanboys who think they're in Vietnam. Grand Theft Auto 5 isn't on a Nintendo platform and that sold for more than a decade like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. GTA5 was a console exclusive for years and Mario Kart games are console exclusives. GTA6 will not be available on the PC and Mario Kart World is a never ever on the PC. Think about who is doing the most schizo fanboy warring: PC vegans.
>>719632413Why are you so obsessed with nintendo if you hate them so much?
oh hey it's the pcvegan guy
>Oh noo mkw is losing players! Who cares?It's still a fun game, and that's all it matters.
>>719640827>while PC looks on and shakes its headLmao what are you talking about? PCfags participate all the time. You fags are no better.
i was fine with consoles as a pc user until each and every one of them started charging you for using your internet to play onlineif you still defend consoles you're a retarded faggot
>>719641126Epic Game Store vs Steam really should've been the indicator of how the average PC fanboy behaves. Steam Deck, Steam Machines, Steam VR all flopped but they have delusional fanboys fighting harder than console warriors. PC platform warring vegans.
>>719632413Honeymoon Phase ended quickly huh
>>719640457Do you have any actual proof that those are bots and not just little Timmy that named his account Timmy that is not just you guessing? When the game fills the game with bots they have the name of the character instead of a name

>>719641650Woah, you played your childhood game when you weren't a miserable console warring faggot and liked it more? Color me shocked!
>>719635956>how were we supposed to knowThe company has been on a downward trajectory in terms of quality for years, anon. They'll release a competent game, sure, but the new stuff rarely stands up to the expectations set by previous games. It's all about making low-risk products and delivering as little as possible.
>>719641542>I agree! Redditor said-
>>719641650post time trials times
>>719641753i'm 33. MK64 was my childhood mario kart and i don't even like it that much.

>>719632413It desperately needs more content
>>719641672Lmao, serves him right
>>719640487Have you ever considered that he just didn’t like the game? I didn’t see a single negative video or post about the game and came to the conclusion it was bad like 8 hours in.
>>719641835world is leagues more boring than 8.
>>719640457Bots keep character names, you disingenuous nigger
>>719632413Having 24 players makes the game extremely annoying. It’s twice the item spam of a typical Mario Kart game.
>>719641826Suuure.Tell me about the amazing time you had with base 8's battle mode.
>>719641757How is making a racing game that defies conventions and also includes a massive entire world a "low risk product and delivering as little as possible"?Serious question. The shaking up of the formula was a huge risk and the sheer size of the game cost them a fuckload to create. These are simple undeniable facts.
>>719641542>r/Fzero user talking about how much they like F-Zero and how good F-Zero islol
>>719632413>contrarian /v/tards at it againDon’t you ever get bored of hating on things others like?
>>719641835>Mario Kart Wii>boring and sterileMaking a claim like this only makes you look like you're arguing in bad faith.
>>719641931Good thing the vs lobbies are dead and you only have to race against 7 people on wide as fuck tracks designed for 24
>>719641882Don't reply to me 'caco, you don't own the game.Also shortcat's entire shit is that he's an agonizing hypocrite that is getting exactly what he deserves, glad he got stuck with a "bad game" for views.
>>719638983How did this become a meme?
>>719642012>reading comprehension
>>719641943the open world is pointless fluff. it has no purpose other than just being there for their big empty drive around mode where you get... stickers. it's embarrassing nobody called out how empty and unfun the game was during any point in development.
Online races should be 3 laps always, with the cross country segments relegated to knockout tours.Online knockout tours should give a randomized unique route each time instead of picking from 8 premade routes. Also give us the option to make custom tour routes for offline and private lobbies.
>>719642037Kill yourself faggot
Kek, it's over for tendo.
>>719642012>arguing in bad faith.As if this thread wasn't that already. You've got a retard crying bots who clearly hasn't played the game, people acting like vanilla 8 didn't have issues and people saying Mario Kart hasn't been good since their favorite.
>>719642142>No timestamp>No post number >eShop >Cropped Lmao
>>719642098No, it's there because every track connects to all the nearby ones in like 200 different courses. Driving around the open world is also pretty fun just for the sake of it.
>>719642242>Driving around the open world is also pretty fun just for the sake of it.it absolutely is not.
>>719641757Totally right, sis. Banking their console launch on open world Mario Kart and 3D Donkey Kong? Super low risk. Departing from their sales-declining Zelda formula to craft an open world game? No risk at all. Having a forty seven minute Direct dedicated to the sequel of a Gamecube game that barely sold a million copies? Negative risk, this company is just playing everything completely safe.
Guys I need help I don’t know which side to join :(I feel like there’s no right or wrong answer

>>719642493>toddler handwriting>plays Mario KartSeems about right
>>719642546i would rather play vanilla 8 for an eternity than play one more minute of world.
>>719642558As I thought. Can’t even take an L with dignity

So is this game getting DLC or not?
>>719642694How is that an L? A couple hundred bucks on a hobby is nothing to somebody that isn’t a NEET or works as a McDonald’s cashier
>>719642793Probably

>>719640827How anyone can still be a consolefag at this point, let alone simp for one of the corporations, is beyond me.
>>719642771I played the game for like a week at launch and then uninstalled. Why would I keep the game installed if it’s not fun? And if it’s not fun, why bother?
>entire thread full of faggot meltdownsI own a Switch 2, but OP is right. Nintendo dropped the ball with MK World by forcing one of the worst online updates in Nintendo history that could only be explained as “anti player”. They removed PLAYER CHOICE of what levels they want to play (traditional 3 lap courses, as has been the case for EVERY mario kart) to FORCE the player to play shitty straight line intermissions where 90% of them play the same. But they saw no one was playing them, so they removed that ability and then dialed it back in a patch. They should have just reverted it or better yet, WHY NOT ADD MORE CUPS TO KNOCKOUT TOUR? YOU KNOW, THE MODE BUILT AROUND INTERMISSIONS YET THERES ONLY EIGHT CUPS? But you FORCE people to play intermissions in the regular worldwide where over HALF of the time, the only choice you have is either gambling or selecting an intermission.I think the open world is fun to drive around in in single player, but they shouldnt force it for multiplayer lobbies just because they feel the player needs to experience it in the devs desired way. It feels anti player, anti fun, and extremely out of touch. We waited 10 fucking years for a new Mario Kart game and it seems half of those resources went into an open world nobody cares about, and now the players are being punished for it due to the dev’s insistence to play it their way, in other words:>ROOH GAIJIN WE PUT SO MUCH TIME AND EFFORT INTO OPEN WORLD YOU ENJOY GAME DIS WAY LIKE GREEN TEA WITH HONEY, NO SUGAR IS SUPERIOR NIPPONESE WAY
>>719642804So now you're attempting to justify the purchase? Lmao.
>>719632413I like it
80% of my time spent playing MKW was in the open world mode.
>>719642880>Le meme Reggie quote >Not posting play time Confirmed for terminally shit taste, and also a week seems too much for what you initially stated, X.
>>719642938Intermissions are based. As are knock out tour cups. Game has plenty of fun and content. Go back to Snoy or PC if you want to fuck around with hyper realistic movie games and air plane simulations
tendies defending this slop and totk was the final straw for me. they're absolutely delusional.
>>719642793The question isn't "if", it's "when". It's gonna need it pretty quick to keep the game alive in the longterm, they can't stretch it out like MK8DX.
>>719642938They don't force you to do anything, nigger, random matchmaking is not the only mode that exists, the only thing they did was fix the random button for it's intended use.Calm down, you're melting harder than the people you criticize.
>/v/ says I can't play tracks>join /v/ room>we can play tracks
>>719643092>World hater is the same faggot that spams TOTK daily hate threads.As expected.

>>719643338Suuure
>>719643338thanks for proving his point.
That's it. Tommorow we storm Nintend𐐬 HQ and hold everyone hostage. We tried to peacefully talk down consumers from buying garbage. But they don't listen. MARIO KART MUST STOP TOPPING THE CHARTS. NINTENDⵔ. MUST PAY.
>>719632413How long do I have a see this trend with increasing frequency over time to finally accuse all cultural icons are ran by people that are intentionally dismantling them?>Nintendo was always anti consumer thoughNot like this. Why are all companies racing to the bottom? When did console wars morph from Sony vs Microsoft to all game companies vs customer?
Wow everyone is an ashole in this thread lmao
>>719632413Still seething that PS5 is dead, Eric?
>>719643551next you'll say that you'll slit tendies throats or something like this
>>719642327This just reads as someone seething that the low-risk strategy managed to flop. I want to say Nintendo's killing it, but they simply aren't. >inb4 sales!Irrelevant, long-term. The Switch 2 is doing damage to the brand.
>>719643667So you concede they are staking risks?Congrats on proving that anon right.
>>719641382It's the ONLY modern Mario Kart, Anon. 8 came out over a decade ago.
>>719643285>>719643092>Eric and Uzzy are behind the anti console threadsAs expected. The Baldur's Gate 3 vs LoZ TOTK was a quasi board sticky from how much they shitposted to troll consoles. Now the troon creatures moved on to Mario Kart World daily hate threads. Sad lives.
The DLC has to be really good for this game to be redeemed.
>>719632413dont care. CrossWorlds ont was fun as fuck and will be the kart racer to play for the rest of this year when it launches

>>719643920This game doesn't need "redemption"A good booster course pack is always welcome though, hopefully with Diddy and Funky and K. Rool
>>719634938>>719643920I want to see Link, Splatoon, and Animal Crossing villager back. I want Captain Falco or Fox McCloud to be part of it. Nintendo All-Stars DLC group includes those characters plus a new open world (smaller than the main game) that connects those Nintendo IPs together.
>>719643760If you consider open-world anything to be a low-risk approach for a AAA studio, you are lost.
>>719643135Have some self-respect.
>>719643551Boy it sure would be hilarious if some assblasted falseflagging tendie got arrested for making threats against Nintendo.
>>719634783>youtubersA bunch of grifters that lie to your face for views and subs. Seems like you're one of the retards they tricked.
>>719643920It's not getting DLC tracks. It may get new characters/costumes, but they aren't going to "interrupt" their precious open world that they put so much time and money into. Nintendo would see changing layouts as rugpulling players from the world they've gotten used to.
>>719635956The switch era was full of red flags. The whole launch of the switch 2 was nothing but red flags.
>>719644416time to change your tampon, tranny.
>>719636298>OH NO THEY MESSED UP MUH EPIC GRIND RAILIN FUCK THIS GAME SHITENDOGood, you autistic tourneyfags deserve it.
MKW is such a confusing game. Why is there so much tech in the driving and well designed courses when the rest of the game is padded to make sure you're driving on the courses as little as possible?
>>719643760>open world slop>riskDo you have brain damage.
>>719644257Zoomers life consist of waking up to read AI generated summaries of things to be angry about on Youtube Shorts and TikTok (because they don't have attention span for concrete information or due diligence). My favorite part was a bunch of "I WILL BOYCOTT THE SWITCH 2, SWITCH 2 WILL FLOP, etc" YouTuber ragebait faces for weeks. Then on release day they all have a Switch 2 and a video to go. Zoomers brain will short circuit and not dig deeper about this behavior.Let me put it in way that ties this thread together nicely like a Christmas present bow: If Nintendo were to answer all the complaints about online lobbies a bunch of YouTuber and TikTok videos will be "hOw NinTenD0 SavED MarIOkart WORLD" with the same open mouth facial expressions like cartoon characters they make. 1 week afterwards they'll put out Steam Charts explaining how Mario Kart World is now doomed again, like this thread.Online discourse is so performative and boring as nothing but cheap entertainment for ADHD brainrotted illiterate zoomers. Nevermind how many bots are online these too. Nintendo, hell everyone else in the industry, should be doing surveys that target people by email address only for feedback from paying customers who login to their service with an account tied to the email.
>>719644504You are blind and stupid and you deserve the dogshit you're fed.
>>719642017don't run>>719640167
If they add little Pauline to the game I’ll play it more, I promise.
>>719644115>>719644538NTA but in Mario Kart's case the safe design decision would have been to make another good Mario Kart with individual, well-designed courses, like the many previous entries in one of their most reliably successful franchises, instead of a misbegotten mess nobody asked for where integrating the courses into an open world completely homogenises them and drains out everything that makes them entertaining. They pissed on the core formula.It was absolutely a risk, just a stupid and needless one. The fact they may have wrongly thought it was a safe bet due to open worlds' popularity (in other genres) doesn't change that.
World has made 8 utterly irrelevant. Cope cucks.
>>719643093But how are they even gonna pull that off? We’re not dealing with single courses, it’s a whole open world where everything connects which is a lot more work than individual tracks. Even if they go that extra mile we won’t see anything for years, and it’ll be a mere fraction of the base game
the dlc will be babby pauline and some costumes for characters like DK. that's all you nuthuggers deserve.
>>719644627In a perfect world, yes, that would be the way these companies conduct business. Any legit discourse is drowned out by a bunch of faggots competing for the hottest take. And it seems like it isn't just tiktok and youtubers. I've seen a million articles, posted by outlets that pride themselves on being the most legit and trusted sources for vidya news, saying the same shit that grifters have been. Regardless of how successful the Switch 2 is, or isn't, they've figured out that the easiest way to make money is to appeal to tard rage and autism.
When are they going to add the "give everyone shells, bananas and bombs, place them all in different parts of the map, and have a circle slowly close in on a random course" battle royale mode
Why does this game make people so fucking angry and hyperbolic. Like that Nathaniel Bandy guy having a fucking meltdown over it live on camera
>>719646274It all comes back to the price unironically. If they released it at $70 physical you wouldn't see anywhere near as much tardrage about it outside of /v/.
>>719646274it's a schizo game trying to pander to a new crowd and the boomer lap guys. Also Nintendo being smug as fuck and never admitting their mistakes.
>>719646518They need to put a muzzle on Doug Bowser, it wouldn't have even gotten quite as bad if they said nothing. That "wait til the direct, then you'll see why this is an $80 experience" comment blew up in their faces
>>719646738Did it really blow up in their face when it's sold a shit ton so far?
>>719646534>Also Nintendo being smug as fuck and never admitting their mistakes.which mistakes?
>>719645512It's less a risk than it seems. They needed something new for people to justify shelling out over a half a grand for it and not just stick with MK8. And they fell back on open world slop. Just making another regular safe Mario Kart would have been the real risk, because it would have had to compete more directly with its predecessor and would have needed to purely be a game good enough to spend all that money on.
>>719632413You know the answer.
>>719646816Most of those sales have been the bundle that gets you the game for $50 so yeah
>>719646518the game came with the Switch 2 literally priced at $50 so only actual retards and physical faggots cried over the price.
>>719632413>All the new tech is uselessI understand they didn't want babies or senior executives to lose because they can't do it, but it's easily the most fun part of the game it's fucking useless 95% of the time.>Item balance is brutalThis is especially bad coming off of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe because it had been thoroughly defanged throughout its life. In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, I'm being chased by a blue shell and get hit by lightening, the person who popped the lightening just did me a favor because I'll be invincible for the blue shell. In Mario Kart World you'll get hit by both and 12 racers will pass you.>Massacred Grand PrixI love the open world, and I love Knockout Tour, but they ruined fucking Grand Prix.>Just a complete lack of featuresHonestly this is the biggest mark against the game. I want custom Grand Prix in Verus Mode so I don't need to pick the track between races, I want to turn items on and off, I want to pick the time of day and the weather. Fuck it, let me pick the music too.>>719632751None of this is true but I honestly wish it was. Also you sound like you've played maybe an hour total and are going off of your early misconceptions.
>>719646857first and foremost: forcing players to play intermission tracks instead of the classic 3 laps. something that could be STUPIDLY easy to fix. if they are even relatively smart, they will announce an update in the direct with said fix.its not much, but this is what they could do to fix the game a bit outside whatever content they could add via DLC:>allow for people to choose if they want to play intermissions or full tracks>add a proper sound test mode because its a fucking crime not being able to listen to all that music.>add mook character challenges in the open world, like in the form of red pswitches or something, if you win the challenge, you unlock the mook without needing for kamek to turn you into the one you want.>allow for different colors and sizes for mooks.truth is, whenever nintendo is doing fine, they ALWAYS get greedy and arrogant, making decisions that seriously fuck over the players in every possible way (the 90$ prices and Game Keycards are the biggest examples now), and since the S1 did so goddamn well and is STILL selling, they arent gonna get humbled any time soon and will still make bad decisions with their games.
>>719647029Why is it topping the Japanese and UK sale charts then
>>719646518People were just as pissed, if not more so, over Nintendo sabotaging the game after everyone bought it because they're arrogant enough to think they can force everyone to like this retarded gimmick.
>>719647570i don't think normies give a shit
>>719647053Physical will always win. We will win when you die and your account purchases die out with you too. t. bought the $450 Switch 2 and not the gaydigital $500 Switch 2 bundle
ITT Snoys getting buttblasted that their spam thread backfired.
>>719647629I don't think normies are buying it, it's nintendo faithfuls
>>719646274Snoys are just sperging out because the Switch 2 killed the PS5. Nothing to see here.
>>719647530Its topping the US charts too.
>>719644026Why wouldn’t it need redemption? It’s total dogshit and not fun
>>719648295The overarching sentiment about MKW is that it is disappointing, intermission courses suck, the open world sucks, and there isn’t a lot of content. That’s why the game doesn’t have any buzz or players anymore. Thats why when you search for Mario Kart World on Youtube there are dozens of videos breaking down why it’s dogshit
>>719648853>Thats why when you search for Mario Kart World on Youtube there are dozens of videos breaking down why it’s dogshitWhy is your entire world view informed from YouTube Shorts and TikTok? You probably have left AI search algorithms turned on btw, which generate content you want to see not what the reality is. Turns out people are willing to live their lives in skinner boxes without having to play games, stay on that hamster wheel that YouTube Shorts and TikTok panders to. Dopamine fix ADHD zoomers.
>>719648853Yeah, just like there was overarching sentiment about the Pokemon Dex situation that led to Pokémon Sword and Shield breaking sales records. Fuck off faggot. PS5 is dead. Deal with it.
>>719648998>>719649010Mario Kart World just isn’t a good game. It’s okay to admit it, Nintendo isn’t going to send assassins to kill you just because you don’t like a Mario Kart g
>>719649104Mario Kart World is a success while PS5, Steam Deck and Xbox are all dead. That fact wont cause the Earth to blow up. Life goes on. Deal with it.
>>719649219It isn’t a fun game though. And if a game isn’t fun, then why bother?
>>719648853>He watches Youtube videos
Seething this much about Mario Kart can't be healthy
>>719649429You lost and got raped, Eric.
Is World bad? The trick stuff seemed really fun, but I don't have a Switch 2 yet cause no games or Xenoblade patches
>>719649680Yeah, it’s pretty bad and the online is already dead. Basically 70%+ of the game is driving on intermission tracks which are just straight lines, and with no opportunities to use your new moves like rail grinding
>>719649010>Pokemon Sword and ShieldImagine lumping a game in with SWSH and thinking it's a positive. These games only prove that inferior products can still succeed due to good will and marketing. Doesn't mean that it's a sustainable model, however. Not sure when the frog will notice he's being boiled, but he has to notice eventually...right?
>>719632413Fuck this trash game, console and the retard bootlickers who defend it
>>719650323Can you not play regular tracks in lobbies?
>>719650360Sword and Shield is awesome, that's why people bought it, Concord is shit, that's why its dead.
>>719650360Did you say something about Pokemon?
>>719650462You can. Don't know why that guy didn't mention that fact
>>719650462Sometimes you can. You will occasionally be given the option to select a traditional 3 lap track, and sometimes the random button will land on a 3 lap track. They’ve released some patches and tweaks so it’s a bit more balanced, but I would say like 7/10 races are intermission courses which is driving in a straight line and then finishing a final lap on the actual course. They’re pretty fucking cancer and unfun to play after you’ve done it a couple times
>>719632681>Does it matter that nobody's playing if millions of suckers bought the game already?Then Palworld won?
>>719632413>Kills your Kart Racer
>>719650736So I'm assuming in rooms or whatever and not worldwides which I assume >>719650742 is talking about. I ain't got no friends but I'm assuming there's some discord with rooms to join
>>719649680It's not bad at all. People are just mad it's really more of a party game than previous games in the series where the intermission tracks add way more random elements with all the players and items going off all the time and it can really mess up your placement for the final lap around the destination course.>>719650742I always pick the 3 lap tracks when they appear just to have some variety, but the intermission tacks are actually way more fun.
>>719632681>>719632413Nobody bought the game, it was packaged with the Switch 2 and everyone's a sucker for a discount.
>>719637235The worst part is Nintendo will never admit they made a mistake, they'll release Mario Kart 9 in a year and pretend World never happened, just deleting intermission tracks. And they'll want everyone to buy it again.
>>719636298this kike should be studying talmud or directing pornography
>>719632413My only complaint is that I can't join my friends in a random Knockout race.
>>719632413A dark day when a Sonic game and a Kirby game have more hype than a Mario game...
>>719651342I mean, is it really that shocking? Kirby Air Ride 2 is something a lot of people have been wanting for over 20 years now and any Sonic game that isn't hot garbage will be considered a blessing, especially by Sonic fans. Mario Kart is Mario Kart. It's fun but nothing to really get excited for nowadays
It's a really bad game that's why, the only people playing it still are just doing so because they have absolutely nothing else to play since the paperweight they bought has no games
>>719651342
>>719651342Kirby is always hype fuck you mean
>>719649507And who do you listen to, the voices in your head?

Why couldn’t they just have normal races but kept the wall riding and grinding? People would have fucking loved that, plus they could have made a couple knockout tour tracks which are just long stretches without making an entire interconnected world. Definitely not a good note to start the console on, but Bananza made up for it
>>719636438>>719636374>>719636298>this is the absolute best kart racing game ever made

>>719651705>Mario Kart is Mario Kart. It's fun but nothing to really get excited for nowadaysMKW is the first new mario kart in over a decade that’s drastically shaking up its old formula and launching alongside one of the most anticipated consoles in history. It should be making waves but instead everyone’s looking for something to replace it with. In that context it’s fucking terrible
>>719652480Now I understand why Nintendo loves the status quo. Everytime they try to shake the formula something goes horribly wrong.
there better be a good DLC with a new island or something or else im only gonna spend another $120 instead of $240 on Nintendo® products
>>719652480If you read the interviews, it’s just brutal. They really struggled during development to make driving in a straight line fun (their words) but it’s clear they weren’t able to pull it off
>>719652480>drastically shaking up its old formula by making everything worse.
>>719652480This is misinformation, they shake up the formula all the time for their games, just look at how much Zelda changes game to game. The issue is the way they changed Mario Kart was really bad.
MKW is a bad game. It'll been as the next double dash in a decade or so.
>>719653129double dash is a masterpiece compared to this sloppa.
