I've never seen a Mario Kart game forgotten so quickly
How would you fix mario kart world?
>>737630601Actual characters like K. Rool, Geno, Cappy, etc.
>>737630905>Actual characters>CappyThat is a literal hat
>>737630530It's just cause everyone is too busy playiahahahahahahahahahaha sorry I can't
So which is the best game, in the end? Mario kart, Sonic Crossworlds or Kirby air riders?
>>737630905>everyone still picks babies and bats because they have better statsincredible fix
>>737630530No including actual characters instead of mooks and no updates, we're getting close to it's one year of release and Nintendo has done nothing for it aside from small fixes. Bananza got its DLC just a few months later after release (granted that got some flack for possibly being cut content that you now have to pay for).
>>7376306011. Don't develop it as an open world gameor2. Have an extensive adventure mode in the open world with lots of things to do
>>737631310they're VERY different from eachother.
>>737630530>No new major content>Lack of more activities in the open worldMakes sense
>>737630530this game has genuinely fantastic visuals and sound, but a pretty awful UI and horrific balancing that just feel terrible to play. I have somewhere around a thousand hours in 8/8D and never play World cause it just feels like shit and doesn't reward you for getting any better.
>>737631787If only there's a way to get all three on the switch 2 at once through a physical sale or something.
>>737630601The main thing for me is that they should let Knockout Tour rallies be customizable. They made this big world with all kinds of paths, and you can only choose one of eight starting points with the same route every time. You should be able to pick any course as a starting point and then pick other tracks in any sequence, as well as being able to have a rally be randomly generated.The game genuinely feels incomplete without this feature. Should have been there day 1. Hopefully it gets added sometime in an update, though my hopes aren't high.
Considering how long the wait for it was it really did come and go like a wet fart. I'm not so sure even a DLC pack would win people back
MKW is the best Mario Kart, try going back to 8 after World and you'll see. The feel of the driving and trick system is too good.
>>737632259That's what normal racing mode is
>>737630530It hasnt, its jut that 4channers dont have S2s because they are poor
>>737631310Air Riders
Stats entirely tied to cart. Character has no bearing.The majority of items causing you to stop dead when they hit ruins the race pacing and makes winning feel like losing. Most shells and bananas should only slow you down and cause a temporary loss of control.With the popularity of "Build your own level" Mario games, I'm confused why they went for the open world thing instead of giving players a level builder.
>>737631723>2. Have an extensive adventure mode in the open world with lots of things to doThis. The open world feels tacked on, which is insane considering it's the selling point of the game and the main reason for the glut of intermission tracks.
You people dont like videogames you just like bitching about them
>>737635165It's what normal racing would be without the constant interruptions to select the next course, and the awkward single laps of destination courses along the way.
>>737635438A trackmania kart game could be fucking amazing come to think about it.
>>737630601>all linear trackscan't be fixed
>MK Wii was an influence for gamers for an entire decade>MK 8 and World: *crickets*Welp
>>737630601It can't be fixedIts mid
>>737630530nintendo is dead as fuck. once millenial virgins die out, nintendo is done for. they millenials will be buried in their nintendo labo cuck coffins.
>>737636175Half the post in any Mario Kart Wii thread is how much people hate ItThe other half are zoomers nostalgia cumming over their first Mario Kart(which is one of the worst Mario Karts)
>>737636053Real tracks exist but they would rather peel back their own fucking fingernails than let you drive on most of them outside of local/private multiplayer gatherings. It's insanely greedy to not only have a mode dedicated to linear courses (which is absolutely fine) but also force them to be the bulk of the tracks in the supposed regular Grand Prix mode.
>>737630601New mode without transition tracks, it's just that simple. The open world challenges are good and the trick mechanics are fun. Most I've played a Mario Kart game since Double Dash and 7
>>737630530i agree and i bought it. DLC is going to be a soft relaunch, calling it now.
>>737636363lollmaoYou people are sad as fuck
>>737631310unironically crossworlds
>>737630530>the 1% hardcore bootlicker fanbase buys the slop>honeymoon phase over, realize they wasted their money, time to cope and damage control online instead of playing the overrated and overpriced mediocre slop on their bricks
>>737630601regular tracks only8 players maxitem and kart rebalancing
>>737631723It already had ?-blocks, P switches and coins what more do you need?
I'm really curious to see how sales have held up post-bundle. I wonder if that's maybe why they've started doing more sub-MSRP variable pricing recently and not just because of Tennis Fever.
>>737630601Delete intermission tracks and boring ass open world.
>>737636363Nintendo will do fine. Pokemon, however, is the gigafucked IP when the millennials are gone.
>>737631310unironically mario kart
>>737639158On the one hand, I don't like how many mooks they filled MKW with. On the other hand, I respect Nintendo's restraint from turning it into reddit's Smash Kart wet dream and taking MKW back purely to the Mario universe. I'm going to eat my words if there's DLC, aren't I The crossovers from MK8 were a mistake and only happened due to WiiU floundering and pre-launch uncertainty for the Switch anyway. Notice how they knocked the crossover crap off with DX's DLC, which started well after the Switch was an established gigasuccess.
>>737630601Custom karts, game modes and tracks, a campaign The game play and openworld are solid but there is nothing to doIf Niggas are going to copy forza horizon they could do it right
>>737639775Personally I'm fine with them simplifying customization back to just picking a whole vehicle for multiplayer. But having parts like 7/8 would've actually been way better to have in an open world mode with actually varied missions and shit.
>>737630530>flagship launch title>no post-launch supportReally weird choice
>>737630530lol fishbone rapes your larp picks
>>737630601No open world No intermission tracksChallenges are now it's own modeEmblem editor like DS "will never happen"
>>737639664My problem with the MKW is that they added this shit>>737640084 instead of actual Mario characters who actually have personality like Geno or whoever from other spin offs. Some people might get over it but I'm not.
>>737631310I like them all but I've given CrossWorlds the most time. Air Riders is great but it's best played in a group with friends. Also this >>737631787 they're all so different that there's not much overlap aside from all three being racing games
>>737631310CrossWorlds.
>>737630530I was shocked I got bored of it so quickly. I played each cup ONCE and then never touched the game again. No desire to.
>>737637025I recall it was a top seller on the eShop last month so I'm sure it's doing fine
What were they thinking with those intermission tracks bros
Who the fuck is playing baby kart games in 2026? Why did arcade racers die and this abomination of a genre survives
>>737640065what do you mean? they added Bob-omb blast just recently.
>>737640320LARPing as a retarded rosterfag isn't a good look anon, pretend too long and your brain will end up stuck that way.
>>737631310air ridersand it's not FUCKING close
>>737641972man, i love air riders, but i can't understand what kind of autism you need to have to think these webms would make the game look good to someone who hasn't played it before. Like that video is just visual noise and mess for anyone other than the person playing the game.
>>737631310CrossWorlds.Got the game at release and was amazed by how much fun it was compared to MK8DX or CTR:NF which I had played so much already, didn't even think that was possible. Then I got a Switch 2 a few months later and was pretty excited to finally be able to play World, only for it to feel... just OK.It's not bad, but it's not even as good as 8DX is/was, and I'm not even talking about less tracks or characters, I mean compared to base MK8DX. I don't know what it is but there's something missing in the game, and aside from the fun new animations and costumes, I'm not feeling like it's a real upgrade from 8DX.I'm still holding hope there will be some kind of DLC expansion (free please), and they add more characters, more costumes for everyone, especially those characters with only a couple or even just one, more karts and bikes, and also more REGULAR tracks and options to customize our races like we really want. About the open world I don't really know what else they could add to make it feel more alive and fun to drive around, so I guess they could do whatever they want with that.
>>737640084>larpwtf does that mean in this context? are zoomers alright?
>>737643043Live Action Role-Play, it means you're pretending to be something you aren't like a bunch of fat kids at the park hitting each other with foam weapons. really outting yourself as a zoomer yourself by not recognizing it because the term is from the 80s.
>>737636175Funky Kart Wii was the worst fucking MK game ever made, the item spam was horrendous and it was insanely unbalanced, the tracks sucked to.
>>737643043"larp" is a term that's recently seeing resurgence, mostly as a "no u" from zoomers and lefties against the term "tourist" mainly being used by right-leaning millennials
>>737630601Make the items actually stop people. Fix lightning to affect everyone for the same amount of time>>737635438The items are too fucking useless and are essentially baby tier shit. Need to bring back MK64 style hits.
>>737631310Air Riders >>> World >>>>>>>>>>> Crossworlds
>>737640320>Genofags not satisfied by being raped in every Smash thread now go to Mario Kart threads for more rapeKEKAROOOO
>>737630530Really? I find mario kart to get a few momths of discussion at launch and then mostly die out outside of dlc. Like this just feels like the norm.
>>737641972I have no idea what's going on in this webm other than a bunch of particle effects.
>>737641972I played a ton of Air Ride as a kid but this webm is actually making me question if I really want to buy this game or not. wtf is even happening here?
>>737630530I won't cap with you famalam. It came with the bundle I came with. I played one Grand Prix and the transition tracks are 100% as bad as everyone has complained about, I haven't touched it since. What the actual fuck were they thinking?
>>737631310Crossworld is the better kart racer. Air Riders is kind of its own thing
>>737630601It's fucked on a fundamental level, they should just cut their losses and start working on the next Mario Kart now and get it out before the Switch 2's life cycle ends.
It was a bad idea. they should just leave the game behind and make a proper Mario kart 9
MKW sits in an awkward middle ground where it takes just enough skill that you can actually get rusty at it from not playing it for a while and so without doing your drills, you're kind of out of the competition against anyone competent on a couple of tracks, but the tracks opposite to that are really poorly designed tracks with a lame gameplan.It's deceptively hard to come back to and have fun with, granted you have basic awareness of what it takes to win the race, and you're not on board with Nintendo's wild, long, straight ride, by Mario Kart standards at least.
>>737630601Intermission tracks can be turned off.Its that easy
Mario Kart 8 was just like this, kind of lame until it later got a bunch of updates. People will care about it in 4 years when it's got double the tracks and a bunch of new characters and karts and modes.
>>737630530shit balancing, acceleration is the only stat that matters which is why all of the races are filled with bats and babiesshit ranked system, once you hit 8500+ you are required to place first every single race to climb 2nd or 3rd to break even
>>737630530WHY DIDN'T THEY DO A STORY MODE. It would make so much sense to do a story mode. Drive around the open world to each track, do some challenges, culminate in a race against an iconic enemy, unlock the enemy as a racer, go to next track, rinse repeat, final race is a marathon against Bowser across the entire game world, iconic enemies enter into race to set you back as you enter their tracks, tagging Bowser back in when he gets behind, no rubberbanding, unlocks Bowser as a racer, finishes on Rainbow Road. Post game, find the classic tracks stowed away in the open world, rematches against the iconic enemies, unlock the classic tracks for multiplayer, game has like 64 tracks to race on now, final race against Dry Bowser across the game world marathon again, unlocks Dry Bowser as a racer.DOWNLOADABLE CONTENT. So much sense making. New DK Isle world, all Donkey Kong inspired tracks, more racers in the form of DK enemies and DK cast, new outfits for DK and Pauline, baby Pauline is a racer now. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING.
>>737631310Mario Kart World because its mechanics are so much better.
It's kino. Snoys don't even own their video games if they don't play them for 30 days
>>737630530Its better than 8 and that's all it needed to be
>>737650259I bet if you designed a video game it would be the most poorly construed thing I've ever seen
>>737630530$80 Slop
>>737655435Not having a story mode or any bullshit like that is the reason this game is a 10 and not a 9. You sound like a retard.
>>737656241ok, retard
>>737652782You are retarded if you think they can easily add new tracks like they could in MK8, they now have to add the new tracks to the dumb open world they added which will take up considerably more time than it would have for MK8.
>>737630530>I've never seen a Mario Kart game forgotten so quicklyI've never seen one so that's so shitty
>>737630905You had me, until>CappyWhy not Harriet Brodal for some more female representation?
>>737657485.......you're going to ignore how he's a genofag?
>>737631310Kirby > Mario & Sonic
>>737657364yet they snuck in dozens of classic tracks, and don't let you select them
>>737630601The open world is relegated entirely to a campaign modeOnline split into 2 modes, regular races, and "cannonball run"(which noone will play)
>>737639158Fun Fact: Kart DS is the only game to not have any toddlers.Because it’s a game for Men. Also Less is More. Thank you for reading!
>>737630601just add more obstacles and shit to the intermission tracks so there's more room for skill expression. Like the dinosaurs that show up during the challenges should always be there. Add some "Road closed, take this small offroad detour" spots to add more turns etc.
>>737642748Daisy Feet
>>737630530I would love to hear what their vision for this game originally was.....because I have a hard time thinking they wanted it to be about driving in mostly a straight line whilst being bombarded by shit constantly. Every new Mario Kart has always been about getting pelted by more shit than the previous game, but at least the older games had cool maps that's fun to drive, unlike World.
>>737630601My quick and dirty solution is to add an extra lap once you've reached the actual track in Grand Prix. It improved Koopa Troopa Beach, it'll improve every other track too. Who gives a shit if every race is an extra minute and a half longer? Also,>Add Classic Grand Prix. I'm not talking just three lap races, I'm talking 12 racers as well. Fuck it, maybe 8 racers. >Add more options to VS Mode. I'd love the options to choose all the tracks before starting the race, that way you can just go, go, go without the downtime of selecting a track between races. Being able to set the time of day and weather seem like features that should already be there. >Add more Knockout Tours, there's no way they've used all the pre-exisiting routes.>>73763142This will always be a problem no matter what they do. If people want to forfeit their self-respect by playing as Toadette in the Baby Blooper or Swoop on the RobHog so be it. May as well add a sheep character with the best stats.
>>737657838What "cool" maps could they even add? The shitty Odyssey levels? Shit from the movie?
I'll say it every chance i get. All Cup Knockout Tour! 30 tracks, randomly ordered with the only rule being "it ends at Peach's Castle->Rainbow Road", only 1 person eliminated each race so the rainbow road race has 3 players.
>>737658629What's your problem with odyssey
>>737630601I feel like the only person on /v/ who cares about battle mode.8Deluxe fixed the atrocity that was 8, but then World basically got rid of it again. No shine runners? No bombs? No choice between balloon points and elimination? Maps too large and lazily placed on race tracks with borders? We could have had some cool modes utilizing the open-world as well. Literally some PUBG shrinking map stuff.
>>737659695>No bombsthey added bombs like a month ago.
>>737630530I only have like 10 hours on it.>>737630942>>737635373Canned bot reply.
>>737656241But if it did that's a good thing and nintendo is based for putting it in.
>>737657682If your main is not part of the default roster, you need to work on practicing your gratitude.
>>737630530Wait til you hear about Nintendo's flagship 3D mainline title "Super Mario Odyssey"
>>737630601cut the base price by 25% and add more knockout tours
>>737657516Bro it’s 2026, SMRPG is 30 years old, it’s time to stop the dumb unnecessary Geno hate.
>>737659695>mario kart battle mode battle royale in the open worldholy shit this would actually be really good
>>737630601Add a “classic mode” where it’s 12 players and only laps on tracks. That’s all they’d need to do. Literally. But they refuse to because muh Japanese hubris
>>737659695>>737660352seriously if they did this i'd buy the game almost immediately even though it's almost a hundred fucking dollars
>>737630530Because the devs aren’t trying to keep it relevant. Just look at Kirby Air Riders and Sonic CrossWorlds that are constantly holding events that give you special goodies.
>>737640084>>737644776There is nothing that better exposes someone as a midwit than seeing a character's lack of relevancy as a measure of both the merits of that character and that character's fans. Every character not named Mario, Luigi, Peach, Toad, and Bowser could have all been subjected to the same fates as Geno or Wart And what do ya know, look how that turned out? if the higher ups didn't like them enough to grant them industry plant status. Yoshi? Another forgotten sidekick like FLUDD or Cappy. Birdo? Another SMB2 boss gone to the sands of time. Daisy, Rosalina, and Pauline? Video games are primarily played by boys so why include more girl power representation when we already have Peach? Every character is subject to the personal whims and arbitrary legal access of a bunch of old, out of touch Japanese dudes and letting them decide your tastes and place in the world is stupid.
>>737659145Ugly woke trash
>>737631310air riders racing mode is pants on head retarded, literally nothing can compete with rick and scooter, ricks ultimate ability you get once per race is a star combined with a golden mushroom, then the spider chicks is like 1 red shelli felt bad playing it, the 85% of NPC aggressively bland people at launch like default mii users in mario kart 8 made it grating as well, fuck those clowns
>>737630530>forgotten>new posts whinging about mkw on /v/ constantly
>>737631310Crossworlds is the better pure kart racer, Air Riders is the better party game, Mario Kart is a jack of all trades, master of none situation.
>>737666272>Crossworlds is the better pure kart racercrossworlds is fucking garbage, mkw destroys it in terms of mechanics and driving and course design
>>737666382Nta but I prefer the driving in CrossWorlds personally, being able to carry your drift into another turn and keep charging it is great and I'm glad it's become a staple of the Sonic racers for this long
>>737630530It's so fucking dogshit...............
>>737631310Crossworlds
>>737631310air riders mogs all of them
>>737661208Air riders and sonic crossworlds both are pretty much dead online unlike mario kart world though.Mario Kart World is what people come back to.
>>737667196>sonic crossworlds both are pretty much dead online No it's fucking not lmfao
>>737665917This thread hit page 10 and almost got archived because of how little people care about MKW now
>>737631310crash team racing
>>737667196Sonic CrossWorlds is loaded with players during festivals.
>>737667293Just looking at the Mario /v/eekend threads constantly dying should show how little anyone still give a shit about it.
>>737637001Substance. That's the same shit as finding Koroks in BotW.Mario Kart World doesn't have anything on the level of BotW / TotK Shrines.
>>737667565you want... shrines? in mario kart? how would that even work?
>>737667196I find matches in literal seconds in Crossworlds
>>737666919Nobody cares what asshole you are
>>737667643>/v/ IQwhat about simpsons road rage style missions
>>737667330>I wonder if anyone is playing onl-
>>737630530The open world was a complete waste of dev time and money and the track design is horridIt's nice that they tried some new things but those new things only hurt the game in the end.
- The interconnected tracks were not a bad idea but they went about it the worst possible way.- Game should've had a lot more tracks.- The character select screen is criminally bad
>>737667196Air Riders just has too many online queues and most people are probably playing in custom paddocks.CrossWorlds isn't dead because it has crossplay>>737667768You seem to since you replied
>>737630530>Removed inside drift because metafags weren't using it in MK8>Every match is filled with sweaty tryhards who only play the bat and know every race course inside and out and jump around the course like they're spiderman or something>Remove my main for random filler minions for roster padding>Costume distribution makes no sense, the baby characters get like 3 outfits each while a mainstay like donkey kong gets a single fucking outfitYeah, I'm not coming back to MKW. I'll keep playing MK8D and wait for the next Mario Kart.
>>737631310Sonic and Kirby are great
>>737652675Nintendo are fuming because the mechanic they feel so proud is vehemently rejected.
The quiet sadness of MKW lobbies
>>737667940By retards yeah
That reminds meHow alive are MK8DX lobbiesAdn does it look good on S2 and not like an upscaled mess?
>>737667425You know it's really sad when a Wii U game had more threads talking then a Switch 2 launch title
>>737630601>let the players play without intermission tracks if they want without needing to use Groomcord for private lobbies>never release that fucking stupid patch thay forced the intermissions in the first place>make the open world with the missions part of a big story mode with character interactions and light boss races like Diddy Kong Racing>immediately greenlight update/DLC tracks that aren't connected to other tracks and let the players know they're in development>car customization, albeit just letting you swap pieces of cars between each other for some customization features>jukebox with playlist you can customize in races>have missions available for the player every week they can use to do character unlocks or gain new stickers/costumes/paint for their cars>run events every now and then that let you race on the open-world zones they make resemble the old SNES tracks to let them become permanent unlocks for variety>ban Shortcat because it'd be funny>>737631310I'm not going to definitively claim Sonic Crossworld is better, it certainly has its own problems, but I'm enjoying it a lot better than I did World post-patch. Very good character, vehicle, and stage variety that's fun to play on. Last Sonic racer I actually enjoyed was Riders, so that's pretty sweet, feels like coming home kinda.
>>737668432Lobbies are still full for the most part, mostly because there's only 12 racers compared to the 24 in worldIt looks more or less the same with very small changes, the load times are much faster though.
>>737667838>>Every match is filled with sweaty tryhards who only play the bat and know every race course inside and out and jump around the course like they're spiderman or somethingReminds me one of my first races trying online. I got greeted by one guy using bat and doing all those crazy jumps skipping parts of the track. I only play a couple of races offline every once in blue moon, so I don't really know every track and shortcut that well. Took me some effort to even stay close to him but managed to fuck his ass and steal his 1st at the last second.https://litter.catbox.moe/t33o6fprzgluyx1b.mp4Did like a couple more online races and noticed I was always getting matched against people with high ranks doing the same kind of shit, so I turned back and never played online again.
>>737630905>K. RoolAlright, I can kinda dig it, Mario Baseball had him, and some more cohesion with Donkey Kong is apprecia->GenoBahahahahahahhaha unc
This is the best mario kart game I've played. Better than the one on switch and better than the one on N64 and better than the one on 3DS./v/ is fags. You guys also hate new DOOM which is also bad ass. Knockout Tour online mode is fun as fuck. I'm going to go play more of it.
>>737667052This is basically just the gamecube version if it had online and few cosmetics. It's a bit of fun, but there's no reason this couldn't have been released on Switch 1 for like $40.
ironically mkw is better now than it was at launch with bagging being nerfedunfortunately despite having 50 characters with lots of variety to choose from, featherweights still rule so you just see babies, the bat, and nabbit ad nauseum in lobbies. you're a bowser fan? sorry. he's total shite and if you get hit once by something (you will because you're huge) everyone just laps youalso nintendo still insists interconnected tracks onto you, even after changes
>>737630601they actually developed it in a way where it can't be fixed. the best thing they could do is remove all the tracks, edit them, and make them all intended to be 3-lap
>>737669873because you forgot to include the fingerless glove gauge, double nigger
>>737657364>You are retarded if you think they can easily add new tracks like they could in MK8, they now have to add the new tracks to the dumb open world they added which will take up considerably more time than it would have for MK8.They don't *have* to do shit. They could absolutely make the DLC levels without open world. It's their game, they don't have to follow any pattern.
>>737631310>So which is the best game>Mario Kart?No>Sonic Crossworlds?No>Kirby Air Riders?No>SBR2KWhy, yes, of course it is.
>>737669420pretty much any game could be on switch if it had significantly worse graphics
>>737670405>significantly worseI already bought a Switch 2. You don't have to lie to me.
>>737670539Using mario kart world as an example of switch 2 graphics is asinine because it was a switch 1 game they moved over (they said this themselves). A lot of the assets/lighting/etc. are clearly made for the switch 1. Kirby Air Riders would need massive downgrades to run on switch 1. It would probably be 30fps with drops which would be miserable in that game.
>>737630601add more shit to the open world detail wise so every road with 30ft wide lanes doesn't feel the same. Put more of a certain car in some areas or just narrow the lanes.Also add tracks that already have traffic like picrel as part of the road, it's kind of baffling that wasn't done already.
>>737630601Literally all it needs is a classic grand prix option which is just 3 laps. They obviously don't want to do that but they're gonna have to.
>>737670640>it was a switch 1 game they moved over (they said this themselves)You clearly don't understand how game dev works
>>737630601Make the open world not an empty "who gives a fuck" part of the game.More dedicated tracks, remove the straight line "intermission tracks"Make progression of unlocking characters/karts/outfits meaningful and somewhat challenging Better kart customization than "sticker you can't fucking see"
>>737670817midwit post
>>737670914the irony
>>737670947they did the same with bananza tooi'm curious why YOU think this isn't what happened when they've done it twice and publicly admitted it both times
>>737667838>Removed inside drift because blah blah blahGood. Just ruined cool bikes.
>>737671018I never said it didn't happen lol
>>737671018>publicly admitted/v/iggers are such self assured retards its honestly amazing

>>737630530it's just total shit and not because of intermissions, the whole game is fucked, you could play well in 8 and 90% of the time place top 3, in world the dominant strategy by far is to sandbag for better items in the last minute to fuck everyone who played well and blitz past them to the finish>but mario kart was always-not like this, shut up fag
>>737670817>You clearly don't understand how game dev worksThey literally said it themselves man. They said it was being made for switch 1 and then they moved it over to switch 2. Obviously they improved some elements, for example the water is way better and there are more racers, but it's not nearly as big of an improvement as an actual Switch 2 built game would be. You can even see this just from the file sizes. Donkey Kong Banaza is actually smaller than Odyssey which is nuts for a next gen sequel. Mario Kart World is a bit bigger at 21gb but this is still surprisingly small for a major switch 2 game. Kirby Air Riders is 25gb and that's a much smaller game with way less content, it's just the difference in asset quality.
>>737668493Yeah.......
>>737655435sounds bad ass, I wonder if they will do story mode in a DLC
>>737630601more harmonica
>>737630530Really messed up the roster. The horrible roster is why I didn't bother with Mario Kart World. They seriously filled the roster with worthless non character mooks so to Hell with Nintendo.
>>737635373I'm poor but I have a s2
>>737635550Why does EVERYONE seem to hate the open world aspect?You realize we haven't gotten any extra content yet? MK8D was supported for like 6 years post launch.Jesus fuck, what do you want?No, characters can be added easy.Tracks are the heart of the gameYes, 3 leg tracks are retarded as shit, I want 3 lap shit for EVERYTHING. >I hate knockout because I'm retardedFuck you, they tried something new with a kart racer. An open world has never been done like this and I'm DAMN SURE if anyone ELSE tried it, it'd be shit too, according to you fucks.
>>737630530this shit was so ass it turned me into a simfag
>>737672038We did give it a chance, and we thought it was shit after playing it, the game is simply too flawed in it's game design.Not everyone wants to play knockout forever when most people bought it just to play the normal races like in every other mario kart that came before it.
>>737630601Wouldn’t change a thing. It’s a weird spin-off for a stale series. They had to change it up. I think it works.
>>737672038>extra contentHave they promised or even teased anything? Is it retarded to expect a game to be good on release?
>>737672038Mario Kart 8 had it's dlc announcement 6 months after the game came out, it's almost been a year since World came out and there's still nothing but tiny updates for it.
Nintendo fucked themselves over with the open world gimmick since it makes adding DLC courses way more intensive since they have to update the whole world map to accommodate them or otherwise have them be in a completely seperate mode from the base game tracks
>>737672038holy fucking victim complex
>almost a year without real updates or dlcTbdesu right now I would prefer if they just use the "World" name in their favor and say "surprise, World was just a spin off, here's the real Mario Kart 9/10", with regular gameplay and better balanced items and characters.
>>737673595The open-world concept should have made it simple for them to have something like weekly races, they would just have to set the start and end points. They could get fancy with it and have some really creative courses. Braindead Nintendo meanwhile does absolutely nothing to try to keep the game active.
>>737673662I would rather have another round of Mario Kart 8 DLC+Switch 2 upgrade pack and they just never acknowledge MKW again
>>737630951?
I honestly think MKW is a lot better than most people (including myself) gave it credit for, especially in terms of raw driving mechanics, but the game's rubberbanding is so overtuned it's not even fucking funny. You should never have the rubberbanding beat you over the head and scream at you that the CPU like it does.
>>737673825Nintendo would never do that, that would be like admitting that MKW's open world failed and Nintendo would sooner let Mario Kart die than do that.
