After now having beat Mario Odyssey, my take away is that the best analogy for why the previous 3D games are better is that they are like a watching a great collection of YouTube videos, whereas Odyssey feels like a long TikTok doom-scroll.
After having almost beat Mario odyssey after 7 years of initially beating it, I do have to say it was a lot less impressive than I once considered it, especially after playing through the other Mario games in recent time. More in the thread ⬇️

Odyssey overloads you with constant dopamine supply through the insane amount of moons and cap mechanics, but is very shallow, it’s the only 3D Mario that is completely built around being for children, and in that way is a 10/10, for anyone above the age of 14 it’s an 8

And while the movement of Mario is really well refined, I just wish the game utilised it more through level design instead of overusing scripted cap sequences. All in all still a great game with a lot of heart and artistic creativity 8/10

Why is Tekken 7 ranked currently either goyslop Eddy, Alisa and Chloe mains with 3000+ wins but still green rank or high ranks that one and done regardless of the outcome lol

You can tell Rivals players have jumped ship to Deadlock with how braindead the takes on the TL are now, I’m seeing Lash get ranked as harder to master than Grey talon 💔💔

TMM is wrong about a lot of things but he is undoubtedly right about one thing, if you’re someone that hates Tekken 8 and constantly criticises others for liking it, while you yourself play it almost daily to this day, you are most likely mentally unwell
Tag 2 hype is so funny to me because most people who say they love the game and point to reasons such as great movement, neutral and creative combos don’t utilise any three of them in their actual gameplay 😭😭

Most of them are just 8 slop consumers that blindly follow the T8 hate and tag 2 hype bandwagon (yet still play it all the time), regurgitating the opinions of the likes of Phidx and speedkicks (of whom I do see genuine and logical appreciation for tag 2)

Links awakening remake is easily the most conflicted I’ve ever felt about a game. I adore the story, visuals, progression and exploration, but the controls and unintuitive direction are genuinely dreadful. The later caves especially are simply unfun.

The controls are at times pretty awful since it’s very clear it was intended to be played on a d-pad which makes using the analog stick a lot more clunky. The combat while at times brilliant have incredibly low moments also especially with the platforming.
