Assist mode is great. My daughter has really been enjoying the game a lot more. Shes even finding things I havent found in my file. Great game.
Well done nintendo.
Well done nintendo.
Im early into the game;
Sometimes when Im in a room that has fire on a torch or whatnot I can extinguish it with my hat. When are are out I usually hear a noise or chime as if something is unlocked but I never see anything.
Im in the sand area.
Minor gripes:
If there one thing I feel SMO is lacking, that would be some more RAW platforming, I finished with 360 moons, and haven´t delved into the postgame content yet, so hopefully that can feel the gap.
Thanks for sharing your toughts. What other 3D platformers have you played?So this is the so called "Nintendo magic"...
The following thoughts come from a lifelong Playstation-only player, having it´s first 3D Mario experience ever.

Gaining new moons is fairly addictive, but since some of the ways to obtain them start repeating in every kingdom, some of the inicial surprise is lost unfortunately. Hopefully we get a SMO2 with even more variety.
In that same vein, I feel the boss fights with th Broodals are certainly are not up to par with the rest of the experience, not only they are just too easy, but again, the variety is lacking.
100% all the power moons this morning before went to sleep. Took 100 hours or more (based on the game timer on profile page). Also grind enough gold coins to max out Odyssey's tank to 999. Had about 9900+ coins before I started that last moon level and when the challenge was completed, I was down to 5400. With 10 coins per death, you can calculate how many times I died doing that level.
Wow well done!
I finally caved and bought a switch last saturday just for Mario (and botw later) and I'm having a blast.
I only have like 70 moons or so and some of them were a bit eye rolling easy but it's kinda nice if I think about moons as a normal collectible more than this special item that stars used to be.
I was stuck on a moon this weekend. One that apparently is considered one of the harder moons of the game.A breathed a wonderful sigh of relief when I finally finished it. Actually... I threw my controller and jumped out of my seat lolJump-rope Genius in Metro Kingdom where you have to do 100 jumps without failing. It took me like 50 tries at least.
So, I'm actually really hoping there aren't any ultra frustrating challenges like Champion's Road from Super Mario 3D World. I still have yet to beat that level :/
Just wait until you find the 100challenge in thevolleykingdom.seaside
One of the few moons in this game that I consider to be legitimately garbage.

That moon is super easy ifyou play in 2 player mode and just use Cappy.

I'm exploiting the crap out of that
Am I the only one who finds the forest levels ugly as hell? The grass looks like something out of a gritty shooter, not Mario.

Not as ugly as the Metro Kingdom. As much as I enjoyed it, it's absolutely hideous in every regard. The clashing art styles are just too much. I hope we never see proportioned humans next to Mario again.

So I just beat that Dragon Boss last night and it was awesome.
I wish the rest of the game was harder like that boss was for me.
I really do not understand why there isn't a hard mode for Mario games, especially one like Odyssey when the main campaign is extreeeeemely easy???
Thank you. IMO the story mode serves as a primer/refresher/newcomers for those who has never played a game of this genre, hence why some of the moons are easy. The game opens up significantly after story mode is complete. I had anxiety whenever I had to go into a moon pipe (not the regular green pipe), levels in those pipes gets significantly harder as you progress up the latter kingdoms.
And if that doesn't faze the hardcore-seeker, the reward from the very last secret kingdom makes the game even harder. Not gonna spoil what it is.

And i just realized that bossis not fightable on the mushroom kingdom
i think some of the post game moons should have been on the main plot, though they are easier to find, like the the hat ghost or the bunnies, while they would be easy to find and discourage exploration, whats the point in throwing many easy moons after bowser?

does anybody know what the other painting on the wedding hall is? the broodals?

Oh definitely, but I attributed it to Donkey Kong nostalgia more than anything. Oh, and the music of course!But that festival was awesome!
Again, I enjoyed it very much, but I still think it's ugly for the reasons I previously stated. The framerate and resolution probably made it worse for me as well. Set side-to-side with something like the Luncheon Kingdom, it just doesn't look as good.I thought that was the most fun level in terms of style something so different and out of the box.
This. I thought it looked terrible and ridiculous. Then I played it. Turned out to be so much fun. Then the ending I could stop smiling.I thought that was the most fun level in terms of style something so different and out of the box.

I love this game. I did wish for more challenging platforming. The end game is delivering there though.
Has there been any talk of DLC? Id love to see a DLC kingdom or two, or more of the challenging moons or something like that.
Or even an Odyssey 2 kind of like Galaxy 2 where there was mostly just an expansion on the mechanics / concept strung out into another game.

Regarding the possibility of future additional content, there's something interesting about the "compartment like" design of some portions of games like Breath of the Wild and Odyssey. In the case of the former it's related to the modular design of Shrines and in the later the Challenge Rooms.I hope we get a Galaxy 2 style sequel or plenty of DLC, I have not beaten it fully yet, but I know I will want more .
