Enough time has passed to settle this. Taking everything into account, which is the better game?
>People instantly forgot about Kirby Air Riders after begging for it for 20 yearsNever listen to the fans
>>735950379haven't heard anyone talk about mariokart world in months. crossworlds still comes up here and there tho
>>735950379Crossworlds is better in terms of gameplay and mechanics, but Mario Kart World sold and performed better otherwise. It depends on which factor you care about.
Has World gotten anything post release? Sonic's on their, like, third DLC and fifth free update wave.
The one that doesn't require a new console to play
I'm sick of both at this point but I had more fun with Crossworlds than MKW.

Both games are fun and worth playing, but have significant issues that keep them from being as good as possible. The open world tracks in Mario Kart are not fun to race on, but the developers really want you to spend most of your time there. They made a good game, but do everything they can to stop you from enjoying it. Aside from the open world making the game worse, they don't do anything to make the most of the good parts of it and it is entirely up to the player to get anything from it in free roam. Sonic just has terrible balance. The driving mechanics are fun, but it is way too lopsided in favor of offense and the catch up mechanics are too strong at keeping everyone packed too close to make it even worse. The collision physics are also terrible and the most damaging attack is if someone lightly taps you and causes you to grind into a wall for five seconds.I have about the same amount of time in both and overall, I'd say Mario Kart is fundamentally the better game. However, I would probably still pick Sonic over it because it at least feels like Sonic's flaws are genuine developer mistakes rather than intentional malice towards players.
MKW is just fucking boring, dudes.Nintendo isn't even trying to turn things around.
>>735950579It got an update that forced people to play the intermissions and an options update that lets you pick between loud and normal.I know right?
They're both shit but at least Sonic hasn't went radio silent and isn't getting new content
>>735950447Sonic has had plenty of new content at least, mario kart world has essentially been abandoned by nintendo.
>>735950379I don't know.I only got Mario Kart World so I can fiddle with Rainbow Road.When Pauline gets added to the roster, I will drive on Rainbow Road as her.
>>735952923Okay, Pigric.
>>735952923That was my experience when I played the game with my brother. It doesn't even feel like a race because everyone is so spaced out on the wuie ass tracks
>>735953181Who?
>>735950379>All star racing transformed >>crossworlds>mk world with 8's pool of actual maps > mk8 > mkworld
>>735950428The racing itself isn't particularly good. Just like the original.
>>735952983>between loud and normal.Is that seriously what they called it?
>>735950379>>735950447>>735950482>>735951868None of them can replace Need for Speed.
>>735953710This. But I would change Sonic Racing Transformed and CrossWorlds. I like CrossWorlds a lot more than Transformed.I couldn't care less about all those meme characters like the youtuber fag or Danica Patrick (even if I liked choosing her sometimes for her kart). I was ok with Ralph but they should've chosen Vanellope instead, she's the fucking racer for fuck's sake.CrossWorlds have the better roster for A SONIC game. Lots of Sonic characters and we're getting the usual Sega reps with all the constant updates. The more time goes on, the better CrossWorlds keep getting.That's my opinion of course, you don't have to like it.
>>735950447Probably because Crossworlds is constantly doing events and releasing dlc while Mario Kart isn't doing anything really, and probably won't for a while.Mario Kart doesn't really need them to get people to play it though.
>>735953928Yes.
>>735950447Sonic was released unfinished and has live service elements. That's the only reason you hear about it.
>>735950579>sonic got content removed from the original release only to be sold back to youembarrassing, how we had gameplay trailers for Megaman before the games release but was only just unlocked in the game recently
>>735950579It got extra modes in battle mode
MK world doesn't feel like a race because nintendo are fucktards who designed it like that with big open mapsBut crossworlds also doesn't feel like a race because you either pick some faggy gadget combo and frontlead the whole time making it glorified single player or sandbag to get trucks/drillsSo you either get fucked by the dev intentionally or unintentionally, so I'll go with sonic. At least it can be fun sometimes and the music is good

Speedstorm beats both
>>735950447I hate live service shit
>>735950379MKW>>735951908this>>735953568Don't mind him. He's autistic.
>>735954793>>735954649I'm trans btw.
>>735955708forgot image
>>735952160And you wonder why no-one really falls for your shitposting.
>>735955882Amy, you forgot to paint your eyelids too, you silly girl.
>>735955972That's clearly Rouge, dude.
>>735950379I like Mario Kart more, but Crossworlds was fun from what I played. I will say it was incredible how the more autistic Sonic fans were on such a high horse when the game was new only for it to be plagued with just as many problems as World had and nobody really talks about either game.
>>735950447World is unironically the worst Mario Kart game but it's still better than Crossworlds.
>>735956176Super Circuit and MK 7 are the worst ones ANon, regardless of your shitposting.MK 7 didn't even have a VS mode so you could have fun with the individual tracks, you had to do grand prix or time attack for that.If MKW launched without a VS it would easily end up being the worst.
>>735954052Crossworlds has Miku and Transformed has some gay fat youtuber, but the boost mechanics were better and you could dodge EVERYTHING. Not that you would, but you could. Also, crossworld feels like it has disproportionately more item spam
>>735956061Crossworlds has levels of item spam infinitely worse than MKW.
>>735950379MKW, somehow. It's shit, don't get me wrong, but I can't think of a single good thing about Crossworlds. Have to even play that game with music muted because even that part is unbearable dogshit.
>>735953972Apples to oranges.
ceossworlds completely annihilated MKW in track design, skill, content, characters, menu UI, music, etc. It's not even a contest. Plus, we got hoverboards. Radical. mayn.
>>735957361One thing I appreciate a lot from crossworlds is how it has actual customization with the badges, allowing you to do actual builds like slipstream stalker, the beyblade menade or ADHD permadrift spamAnd like that other anon said, it migu
>>735950379ring racers > air riders >>>>> both of those
>>735950379I didn't get MKW because I didn't like MK7 or 8 and I don't expect to like it just because it's MK but le open world which is the biggest meme I've heard. The tracks don't look fun either since they look so fucking wide, like am I even going to bump into other racers at that point. I would also HOPE the items are better in this game than previous since they were so fucking boring. The additional trick stuff seems okay but not enough to entice me.I did get KAR and that is a good game, but not a racing game exactly. It's more like the battle mode in a racing game. I think it's all pretty great, anything I could have asked for in a sequel and more, like the car customization is nuts, but I do feel its one flaw is that it could've used a second city trial map. Scaling up the map from the first game probably would've worked. It's otherwise a high quality game that I would say is "better" than Crossworlds.However on that note, I have played Crossworlds much more than KAR. About 70 hours vs 230. It's clearly a lower quality game, but it also feels incredibly replayable because of the whole gadget system. Changing your gadgets basically changes your whole gameplan and can even change how it controls. The tracks could be a little better, and I could use more of them, the items are also maybe a little too powerful, but in total it's a fun ass game. Further bolstered by having so many good mods as well.
Sonic Crossdresser Racing is a huge flop. Stiff feeling, bad tracks and filled with mtx shit.
>>735958539but someone booed at Mario...
>>735950379SRB2K
>>735950379I liked the character variety in Crossworlds, but the actual game seemed pretty boring honestly. Not to mention if youre gonna play a mascot racing game on PC...All stars racing is still there.Mario kart world added actual tech like driving on walls, charging speed with jump, rail riding. Im not a fan of the "driving from A to B tracks" but outside of that, i find the track in world better than the mostly generic courses of crossworlds. There may be nostalgia bias for older tracks thoughbeit.
>>735950428nobody begged for it
>>735950428Air Riders is a City Trial game, not a racing game, Sakurai just deliberately decided to focus on the racing part instead of the part everyone played for some reason
>>735950379Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
>try the sonic kart demo>not allowed to rebind keys>uninstall and kneel for mario
>>735950379>Mariofags sell running through walls as a feature>Sonic has been doin that decades ago>Japan says Sonic is the one copying Mario I hate Japan
Wall jumping raised the skill ceiling and later patches made the game perfect already, Sonic can't compete at all.
>>735959746>tranny delusions
>>735950447because world is a complete game, shitnic is a DLC battlepass shitgame
Crossworld gimmick is weak. Each track has 2 laps and reuses a lap from a previous course.
>>735950447>crossworlds still comes up here and there thoCrossworlds has a season pass and FOMO unlocks via Splatfests which would be why, it doesn't have much to do with the actual game itself.
>>735950379by what metric?
>>735960187It isn't really a problem except in Grand Prix where the last race is a rehash of the previous three in the cup.
>>735950379I played both and hated both, but in terms of which one I would rather pick up and play right this second, it would be Mario Kart hands down
>>735950379World, definitely
>>735950379Mario Kart World gave me this, there is no contest.
>>735957361>track designDude, crossworlds’ tracks suck
>>735954851not yet, it's going to eventually though
>>735959556so one is a group of autists mindbroken into worshipping a corporate mascot even if the games are shit, and the other just care about decent games and would move on if the games became shit?
>>735950379Crossworlds of course!
>>735961023>Dude, Ubikiketendiehesda's tracks suckFTFY.
>>735961118>schizo gibberish but anyway, yeah crossworld's tracks suck donkey dick
they both suck but mkw sucks less where it matters
>>735961118>Ubikiketendiehesda'sThis is fucking incomprehensible, what are you on about
>>735960949She's the only reason I have to play that game every once in a while.
>>735959661Did you make sure the mario demo let you rebind too?
Crossworlds would be the GOAT if its items weren't so oppressive.
>>735950379Reasons why Sonic is a better gameSonic added updates to make the game betterMario added updates to make the game worseI rest my case
>>735950447because theres nothing to do in open roam. >but muh stickersreally? at least with sonic you can earn the copy and pasted ai skins for all racers, tickets for customization, super sonic, and the retarded crossworld festivals. both games have okayish levels but i feel with mario some drag on a little too long
>>735954052>CrashThe fucking microtransaction situation in NF was nuts.
>>735966650Do... Do zoomers think that 39 hours is a lot?What am I missing.
I haven't played crossworlds but looking at the gameplay it looks like it's extremely stiff, slow, and very boring mechanically everyone hates MKW but it's fucking better than 8, I don't care how many fucking tracks you have when the game FEELS like shit to playMKW is the best feeling mario kart mechanically since double dash, and that supercedes everything elseMKW is also technically cheaper than crossworlds if you bought the switch 2 bundlecrossworlds also has censored rouge, so there is LITERALLY no reason to buy it
>>735950447With Crossworlds being on PC, you can have multiple screens to engage with social media while you play the game.You can't do that in Mario Kart World (which I prefer).
>>735967557That you'd only be allow to play one level (electron Alley) but hey, keep coping that NF wasn't as garbage game that nobody but a small group of autists played.
>>735951908Kirby Air Riders>>>Mario Kart World>>>>Fast Fusion>>>>Power Gap>>>>>>>>Sonic
>>735967825>fast fusionwhy does NO ONE talk about this
>>735967819the only thing that pains me about nf is we will never get a pc port. ive just been emulating the switch version all this time
>>735968049If you do get a pc port, it'll be just like the Call of Duty games meaning:Requires Activision AccountRICOCHET Anti-CheatBoot Protection - Requires both Secure Boot & TPM 2.0And if you get a sequel, it'll be based on Crash 4 just like art Beenox showed in their anniversary. Expect nobody to give a shit.
