mario 64 is a bad game - /vr/

Anonymous09/06/26, 09:46No.12801436Mario 64 is a bad game

So let me review this game as I experienced it as a child playing it when it did come out. Lets ignore the ultra fagots who go >AWCHULLY it is bad because I can not 2xTripple jump to get the unreachable star because the camera control's in my speed run This is a game made for children and I played it as a child. The game was so bad that I did feel cheated I did feel jealous of my friend who did have a SNES with real Mario games on it not fucken mario 64! For context I did play the NES mario before in another friends house (bootleg hardware they got from these bazaars) I also played some SNES mario at another friends home. And then I really wanted to get a N64. WOW what disappointment it was! At the same time I got a game boy before the N64. I also got Mario Land 1 and 2 and played them to death to this day they are my fav games in the mario series. And then there was Mario 64. WOW what trash game. First you are thrown into a world map and find out that there is only 1 door you can open. So you start the map and.... basically get fucked . I walk around and there is no explanation to what to do next I fuck around in the game it is OK I guess and then I do not know what to do to finish the level it is OK I guess. It turns out the big guy on the mountain is the boss so I go fight him. Here is the first thing I try and it is to throw him off the mountain. I mean it makes logical sense that should damaged him hard. However he comes back up and babels something. I try this like 5 times. And we get bad design, peak bad design instead of rewarding logical thinking or alternative or sensible options the game forces you into defeating him in the one way it dames to be the correct one and the correct way is the most ass backwards bullshit you can imagine. So I defeated him and move on. 1/3

Now it is important to note I am ESL and my parents got me the game in a language that I almost can not speak, so no I am not fucken reading a wall of text for that. I suspect other kids also did not read the bullshit wall of text because games have a hard time even today making adults read text in games.So the next world is wamps castle or whatever(I made up my own names for the enemies BTW I called them the flat ones) to the games defense this one is far more logical then the previous bomb boss. Before this the flat guys did slam and have a plaster on their back(showing a crack) and the only way to damage them is to stomp on them. The same is true for the boss. A far better level should have been made the 1 level.So I finish this and.... yea here the bullshit starts. Now the first map has a race to complete. and map 2 has to go to the top and we are fucked. Now the game turns into idiotic frustration. You need to collect the stars however you basically run from painting to painting to get all the stars it is tedious since often you have no idea what to do to get one. There is the obvious >Collect 8 red coins however that is a boring scavenger hunt and frustrating if you have no radar like in modern games and trying to find the last coin.Lets contrast this to Mario Land 2. You get a open map and can do any of the levels in any order you like. Progression is simple. You either move right or up to the end or defeat the boss.Loved the game. Real mario game VS what feels like a fake Mario game made by some bootleg company2/3

Mario never got the 3d gameplay figured out until Odyssey

The only issue it's the camera, Nintendo went through all the trouble to make moving in a 3D environment fluid but forgot to tell the camera to do the same

>it's another "I got filtered by a game made for children and I'm salty about it" thread it happens to the best of us, OP. Just jack off, go to sleep, and come back tomorrow with a different perspective.

I wanted a n64 for shadows of the empire. I eventually got a used copy of mario64 from blockbuster But it was disappointing until I played the DS remake

I'm replaying for the first time since it came out in 96. Going for all 120 stars which I never did before. I'm having a blast and once you just start trusting the auto cam the camera is fine most of the time. The only time so far that the camera was shitty was in Lethal Lava Land, in the pyramid climbing up the one pole to the little platform that had the spinning fire trap. The camera was just not showing me what I needed.As far as platforming and secret hunting it's been a blast.

I managed to almost get 120 stars in this game when I was kid that barely knew English, you might genuinely be retarded, anon, the "I'm ESL" excuse doesn't cut it.

If you're really going to do a post in three parts with reddit spacing you should make sure to at least, you know, write concisely instead of a long immature rant. TL;DR btw.

As far as janky 3D tech demo Mario games go, I thought Sunshine was more fun

The issue with Mario 64 is that it's basically empty, there's nothing going on really. You have vast, vast empty spaces with fences here and there, some hills, a bit of water maybe here and there. Platforming levels with just... black space as the background. It was clear that they were straining the hardware and couldn't put much into the game at once. But it also gives you a vast feeling of emptiness. The way you're corralled into these empty areas is insulting too.The control is fairly nice and fluid, I will admit. That's the best part of the game, maybe the only GOOD part. The plot as usual is fluffy meaningless Nintendo nonsense. The enemies are boring. You get those coins same as always.
