Honest thoughts on Mayro Wonder?
>>736722791The abilities were cool. The special stages were fun and adequately difficult. The level gimmicks were hit-or-miss, but generally enjoyable. The art style is great all-round. The game doesn't overstay its welcome. I liked it and would recommend it. Picrel can eat shit though.
>>736722791It's a good game, that you play once then forget about it, like the other modern Mario games.
>>736722791It's alright, but way too easy with barely any challenge even in the last worlds. Even when you're doing all the secret levels, it only actually becomes difficult for the very last level.It's especially frustrating because even if you buy the idea that kids games need to be this easy (even though older Mario games did fine with more challenge), the game already has more than enough easy modes between skippable levels, unlockable powers and whole characters that are invincible.
>>736722791Nice art style and fun stage ideas, but the easy difficulty makes most of it very unmemorable. Also the badges are too unbalanced. A shame that the best boss fights are on the Switch 2 DLC, since they’re also the best Koopaling fights in the whole series.
>>736722791I just couldnt get into it. Something was just off for me.
>>736722791They blew their load with the first piranha plant song. That shit was 10/10, the rest of the game is like a 6.
>>736723751The ninja level was pretty cool
>>736723981I genuinely can't remember what level you're talking about which I think sums up why people don't talk about this game
>>736722791I can never play 2D mario after odyssey
I liked it but honestly it feels like after the NSMBslopification of the franchise, 2D Mario has lost all it's identity and therefore all the games have become forgettable >>736723049Basically this
It’s too much style over substance. Sure, some levels are good, but there’s too many wonder segments where you can’t even die. I don’t think Mario needs to be a hardcore game or anything, but even then there’s a difference between a game that’s easy and a game you can’t lose.
>>736722791Too easy, too handholdy with the backseating flower, and I got bored around 3 worlds in and only finished it because it's a short game. I legitimately can't even remember most of the game anymore, the entire game is moving through forgettable set pieces that leave no lasting impression because there's no real challenge.
>>736722791I was hoping for SMB3DW2, and got another NSMB game with a gimmick.
>slime levelkino>you become the slime levelAbsolute kino
It was fun. A proper DLC with new levels would have been better than Bell Park, which seems like it's just leaning into the worst stages in Wonder which were those weird little competitive/co-op team challenges.
If you didn’t play Bellabel park, you didn’t play the game
>>736730359Isn't it just minigames and Koopaling bosses for 20 bucks?
>first world is the best world, game is frontloaded as fuck>2 bosses, couldn't even be fucked to have a boss fight in every worldNobody would've bought this game if it wasn't called mario.
>>736722791I can see they put alot of effort into the presentation but for some reason it feels more soulless than ever, you could say NSMB was getting stale at this point, with Nintendo just going through the motions but to me Wonder feels like a mobile game presentation wise, getting Scarlet/Violet vibes. I didn't like the elephant powerup and how much it was used, even visually it looks stupid, this is the first time in a Mario game where I actively avoided the brand new gimmicky power up, in 3D world I loved the catsuit. Gameplay wise level design is hit or miss, badges are a good idea on paper but should absolutely never ever have been in a Mario game, Mario games are one of the rare platformer series where the rules are clearly established from the beginning and then the game expands on that with level design, Mario should not have equippable abilities.
I managed to force myself to play for 5 hours before finally giving up. I like platform games (I've put in 500 hours on Mario Maker 2).It's a game for very young children.Playing Mario Wonder is basically like watching that Barney show. I don't know how some adults actually manage to do it
>>736731812If you think that’s bad then play bananza. There’s a reason it’s called fetus game and a reason that tendies hate seeing it called that.
>>736730389>>736730297They also added 60 challenge levels akin to NSMBU challenge mode. Plus 14 that are boss rematches but with harder conditions (one hit you die for one version and one where you just fight a tougher version)
>>736723751>They blew their load with the first piranha plant song. That shit was 10/10, the rest of the game is like a 6.I thought the King Boo Opera was better than the Pirahna Plant song one.
>>736732174>They also added 60 challenge levels akin to NSMBU challenge mode. Plus 14 that are boss rematches but with harder conditions (one hit you die for one version and one where you just fight a tougher version)Is it really that good? Cause I'll considering buying it if it is.
>>736732430it's actually worth the money, it's a good upgrade
It's a good game to play with your gf's kid.
>>736732430Yeah. Some are actually quite tough too, I was surprised. They also added new dual badges you can unlock that give you two different badge abilities at once which is actually something I wanted from the base game
