I've only really played world, 64 and galaxy 2 in my life. World and 64 were super awesome and I have very fond memories of them, 64 in particular. I remember enjoying galaxy 2 but that's about it, it wasn't particularly memorable for me and I couldn't really tell you much about it now.

I wasn't fussed about Odyssey (ok I would have still got it) until I heard they were returning to a sandbox 64 style, then my hype levels went through the roof. I'm excited y'all.

Though a really neat game, Super Mario Odyssey is an utterly underwhelming adventure for every long-term Super Mario fan in existence. Unless Cappy brainwashed you. In that case, you are a satisfied zombie customer now. No, seriously, only a zombie would find a healthy challenge in this pleasant but disappointingly easy Super Mario Walk-in-the-park. Sorry - Odyssey.

Wait, how are some people playing this game already? I thought it wasn't supposed to be available until midnight?

Some websites such as the one I order from send out copies early to ensure that they arrive by release date. Oftentimes this results in getting the game a day or two early.

I completed the storyline in about 13-14 hours, but I've still got about 600 moons to go and some kingdoms I haven't discovered yet. Game is awesome but I think BotW just edges it for GotY for me.

Only complaint so far is it is a bit easy. Most of the little side moons i breeze through without a sweat, hopefully the later levels are more challenging.

Post-game is where the challenge is

Bullet bill tip - it changes direction according to the screen, not the direction it's facing. So push towards the direction you want to go on screen. It's totally counter-intuitive.

Is there something I'm missing with regards to platforming with a podoboo in Luncheon? I found the part leading up to the boss, and the boss itself, incredibly frustrating. There's obviously no depth perception because it's not like it's a 3DS game, and your shadow is invisible between platforms.

That said, everything else has been wonderful.

Are those the fireball things? If so I had a bit of hassle jumping into the rotating things because I'd keep hitting the rim and dying.

Speaking of cascade kingdom (post game spoiler)

I see on the map the X to show a moon is at both ends of the powerline next to the Odyssey but for the life of me I don't know how to get them. I've climbed to the top, ground pounded all around, I can't see any moons hovering above them. Without telling me what to do, are there actually moons to be had or is my map bugged?

I might talk to the parrot dude and see if the name gives any clues.

I feel like I've scoured a lot of the kingdoms head to toe and then I look at the moon list and I'm still missing like 30+ moons. This game is great.

Is there a moon in Cap Kingdom for lighting all the lamps? I noticed that the game was tracking their state so I assume so. There's a lot of them though, I thought I had them all but nothing happened.

No

For anyone else having trouble with the bullshit that is Picture Match :

Just stick post-its or something similar to your screen to line up your parts

It's the harder ones where everything disappears that I can't do :negative:

Regarding the Deep Woods, gently caress that moon that has you shooting all of your coins into a plant for a few minutes. That wasn't fun at all..

I feel like I've been all over every map head to toe about 50 times at this point but somehow I'm still missing two warp paintings and a bunch of hint art.
