>97 metacritic

Is the first Mario Galaxy one of the most overrated games ever? I found it completely mediocre and forgettable from start to finish. My main complaints are the absolutelinearity, lack of exploration, and lack of challenge. Most levels are a series of micro puzzles on floating balls, you move from floating ball to floating ball until you reach the star. Galaxy 2 was a bit better in level design and not as dumb and repetitive, but still was hurt by the lack of exploration and linearity. The first galaxy also annoyed me a bit with the cutscenes it had, the story was complete nonsense anyway, so I'm glad they removed the story altogether from Galaxy 2.

In the end, neither game was as good or as fun as 64 or Sunshine, or even Banjo Kazooie.

What's your opinion on Mario Galaxy?
>>
I liked it.
>>
>>338492105
I also didn't flat out dislike it but it seriously wasn't "3 points short of perfect". It was an ok game, 7/10 being generous.
>>
>linearity and lack of exploration

It's a fucking platformer, it's supposed to be that way.

>>338491960
No, because it's actually good.

Gtav and bioshock infinite are better contenders for most overrated

SM64 set a standard which was not topped until SMG, which was then topped by SMG2.

Thus it is hard to discuss SMG as some kind of pinnacle of gameplay when it was almost immediately usurped by its successor.

for a platformer it sure lacked platforms

just floating balls and gravity gimmicks out the ass

Lack of exploration is not a problem. The game is designed around the linearity. Sounds more like a personal problem you have with the game.

Bait
>>
If you prefer your 3D platformers open with exploration that's fine, but the game was designed to be linear, sounds like it comes down to preference for you.

I agree on Galaxy being overrated, but that comes more from a lack of challenge than anything else, which Galaxy 2 stepped up a bit.

Controls were shit especially walking around a planet with holes. The game was pretty much one long tutorial. Galaxy fans are so retarded that they had to release tutorial dvds

Perfection, in every area, from beginning to end.

>>338493561
>platformer doesn't have any subgenres
It is a platformer but more specifically it's an adventure-based platformer (with a hubworld), as well as a collectathon.
>>
>my main complaints were the absolute linearity
there have been 2 nonlinear games in the entire 30+ year history of mario, you fucking doofus

mario galaxy has great level design. interesting areas, interesting mechanics that slowly layer on top of one another and increase in complexity as the game goes on. almost every stage, something new is introduced, there is barely a dull moment. you say they're not challenging but the later parts of galaxy 2 are far harder than anything 64 or sunshine throw at you - and besides, when has mario been about challenge?

you sound like you want a different game series, OP, and it's not mario's fault that you have shit taste

Both Galaxy games are the most overrated games of all time. They are by far the worst 3D Mario games, providing the least movement options. That combined with the floaty nature of the game makes them drags to play.

The scale you provided was out of 10, not out of 100. If you meant to rate it where a point is out of 100 then you should have said 70/100.

Alright, retards.
The first guy said "3 points short" in reference to 97/100. That is 3 points short on a 100-scale. Now for those of us who passed 3rd grade math, we know that his rating of 7/10 is equivalent to 70/100, which is 30 points short. His math is spot on and it makes sense when you think about the statement.

That being said, the OG "3 points anon" can't write his way out of a cardboard box and yeah, it was a poorly made sentence, but his actual point still stands.

Learn to do math and learn to write better. This is why the Western world is crumbling.

You didn't state in your original post that you were talking about the 97/100 metacritic score, nor were you replying to someone talking about it.

Were you literally 7 years old when Galaxy game out? Do you know anything about how Mario levels are (usually) designed? For the most part, you are encouraged to run full speed ahead and use your acrobatic moves to beat the level. Mario is known for his running speed as well as his jumping prowess. For a really long time it was hotly debated on whether Mario or Sonic ran faster, which is why they appear in those Olympic games together.

Galaxy having the levels separated by planetoids with floaty gravity goes completely against this principle. You run fast then jump, great! But now you orbit around the little ball you're on. And you have to stay there until you solve the puzzle or kill the enemies. Where the fuck is the fast?

I completely agree with you. The game wasn't challenging and exploration did not exist as it does in 64 and Sunshine.

Also Mario feels significantly slower/floaty in the Galaxy games than 64 and Sunshine, which fits the setting but doesn't make for great gameplay.

Throw in all the sub-shit you want to help you sleep at night, it's still a platformer, and to this day still one of the best ones BECAUSE it went sandbox format instead of railroading you.

Neither SMG1 nor SMG2 had to railroad the player to do what it wanted, Nintendo just chose to make it that way because they thought the players were too stupid, I guess. Even though SM64 already proved that wrong.
>>
>>338498547
>and to this day still one of the best ones BECAUSE it went sandbox format instead of railroading you.
I don't fully agree with this, but I respect your opinion. To me, platformers at their core are about jumping from A to B in a generally linear environment, but if you prefer open-environment platformers that's fine - it doesn't mean everyone has to agree with you and that what you didn't like so much is overrated.
>>
>>338498537

>>338498813
but linearity would only be better if the platforming itself was better and it's hard to argue that for the galaxy games because mario floats and moves like shit.

A screencap can help a lot. It's not exact proof but most regard it as close-enough, especially if the cap is provided quickly.
Nonetheless, the opinions and speech/typing of posts makes it fairly easy to tell it's likely the same anon speaking.

>>338498950
In your opinion, most would disagree with you and there's nothing wrong about that.
>>
>>338498547

This is actually the opposite of a good opinion. In fact, the only levels in SM64 and Sunshine that are still fun to replay are the Bowser levels and Fluddless levels that focus entirely on linear platforming, while the rest of the game is a slog to play through again after you already know the layout and the novelty of the "sandbox exploration" is gone because you aren't a kid playing it for the first time anymore.
>>
>>338491960
You're absolutely correct, but the nintenyearolds on this board will try to beat you sown with the same old arguments of "It's ok when Nintendo does it. " and "Having no difficulty doesn't make it a walking simulator."
Unfortunately for these posters the only shred of dignity that they have left is clinging to the well being of a childrens toy company.
>>
>>338491960
Galaxy is way way more fun than Banjo Kazooie. It doesn't follow the Golden Standard of Non-Linearity, but the levels are a lot more involved and interesting.

Nice shit taste you have there. Develop some critical thinking, and work on your retarded hyperbolic words and maybe next time we can talk about why your prefer for open world games doesn't make the amazing game that is Galaxy "completely mediocre and forgettable"

I remember being crazy hyped for it and then after being so disappointed that I replayed sunshine, which before galaxy I didn't really think it was that good, but I ended up enjoying it way more.

I was dumbfounded when later I saw Galaxy getting game of the year awards left and right and it was around then that I just started to ignore review scores.

Says you - that is all completely your opinion. The fun, the things you like and don't like.

All I know is, SM64 has relatively quick-to-get Stars instead of SMG's railroaded slogging, and that combined with finding new ways to the destination are why SM64 still gets love.

Yes. The only thing it did better than SM64 and SMS was the soundtrack.

The gameplay was shallow and simple compared to both predecessors, and especially compared to SM64.

The environments were linear and forgettable after the god-tier world design in SMS.

The visuals were alright but they weren't fully realized due to the Wii's graphical restrictions.

It's usually because they played SM64/Sunshine as a kid, so when they play SMG as an adult they feel it's too easy - failing to realise SM64 and to a slightly lesser extent Sunshine are also easy.

I had as much substance as your "arguments" did. Saying something is bad, no matter how you word it, tells nothing about the game. Better criticisms would reference some specific levels or mechanics. I can't be bothered going into that detail over Sunshine since I don't really care for posting hit opinions, but since you care enough when it comes to SMG I'd be happy to see what specifically you didn't like in SMG? Or is it really just the fact it's a mostly linear format?

>>338502235
In your opinion, I don't see much a difference between SM64 and SMG persoballyy, both are incredibly easy. Sunshine has a fee tricky areas, but not necessarily in the good way.
>>
>>338502360
I don't get how one silly aspect of the game that's only used in like 2 stages completely invalidates the fact that the world design (not the level design, necessarily) is extremely creative and coherent.

Yes, which is not the same as me saying that's the sole reason you dislike it. I never said that since you've already repeated multiple times in this thread the vague reasons on why you apparently don't like the game.

I wish Nintendo would quit the home console market and instead release its IP on multiple platforms.

Imagine a Super Mario Galaxy HD 60fps remake for the PS4 minus the gimmick waggle controls.

I'd pay full price for that. I love Nintendo games, but cannot justify buying another dead Nintendo console just to play the 3 great Nintendo games on the system.

How much custom do you think Nintendo are losing out on by not going multiplatform?

Just think about it.

Wii U has sold ~12 million
Xbone has sold ~20 million
PS4 has sold ~40 million

That's 60 million potential customers than Nintendo are missing out on. When will they see the light, /v/?

isn't that the point of a forum? sharing ideas? i mean if i say "galaxy is easier" and someone disagrees with me, not much can be said there (although i don't think that person has played both games recently and/or is being honest). however if someone were to argue that the galaxy games are easy but still have other strengths then i'd be open to that.

I don't get this criticism. All Mario games are somewhat linear, while still giving you the option to tackle levels within a galaxy randomly.

Only the galaxies could be described as linear, as they required a certain number of stars before opening up.

>>338505887
>I believe Nintendo would benefit financially from exiting the console market
I doubt this given they'd have to compete with games on multiple systes as opposed to selling games on their own systems. Which, despite poor system sales, has still been working well (with Wii U titles selling very well). But I wouldn't care much either way honestly, you just could've picked a better example than a fucking redundant SMG remaster as your example.

>>338506064
Good. You've learnt since last time.
>>
>>338505980
When we are talking about people rating games and using those scales, it really doesn't. Why would there be a 10 point scale and a 100 point scale? People use both in different ways to translate different meanings of a game's quality. This isn't strict math we are talking about here you fucking retard, we are talking about arbitrary point systems to equate a game's quality. They aren't the same.
>>
>>338506318
>Going from a to b isn't good level design

I do believe you are just shitposting at this point.

It's how you get from a (start of level) to b (star end of level) which determines the quality of the level design.
