Was Cranky the ultimate bro for keeping Pauline away from Mario?

This is my 1-Up girl
There are so many directions they could take with the story. I really hope Koizumi wasn't too busy because I have very high hopes and am going to be disappointed if he didn't write it.

>Captain Toad falls victim to the Sirens
Anyone else think the level-design looks like garbage? I saw almost no real platforming in the trailers, I don't want Mario to be some pseudo open world running simulator. Also all the real-life stuff like cities and dinosaurs is fucking boring. I want tighter levels with interesting setting, unique enemies and challenging platforming instead of this xbox-huge bullshit they showed us.

No, because it doesn't. Thanks for trying to de-rail the thread.
>>381298204
Did you ever play 64 or Sunshine?
>>381298204
well, they don't show us anything from mid-end game. Also, just like sunshine, there are specific challenges created outside of these worlds which you need to finish to get moons. These challenges are platformy :)
>>381298204
From what we've been shown you can get all of the moons through regular platforming without using the gimmicks.

No to everything in your post. It's just a simple story of mario saving peach. Again.

Have faith in Koizumi.

>Sunshine had Mario being accused of being a thief and covering an entire island in graffiti. Bowser Jr. is introduced and believes Peach to be his mother.
>Galaxy has Bowser interrupt the festival to create his own Galaxy. Mario meets Rosalina and learns of her pasts. The Toad Brigade assembles and aids Mario
Nigga fuck you
>>381298204
I think that the worlds are too large. Why the fuck does a Mario game need worlds so large you need a scooter? But those parts mostly look like filler between the actual levels.
The Bullet Bill level looks extremely slow, simplistic, and dull(like /v/), and the fact that you beat the new wriggler in a tank is off-putting.

>Bowser is going to marry Peach
This shit will literally never happen
>The Bowser/Peach wedding is being advertised all over New Donk even though Pauline is the mayor and could easily stop the ads
It's a hostile takeover you moron, the city's being attacked
>>381299054
Uh oh, someone's already triggered
>>381298204
It looks like how sunshine did it.
Large worlds to have fun dicking around in and then lots of little secret entrances to pure platforming.
>>381297128
Cranky Kong is in this game?

I think it's different for a Mario game because normally there's one central hub with sub-sections that lead to self-contained levels. Whereas Odyssey seems to have several mini-hubs that seamlessly transition into more traditional platforming areas. Whether it'll work out remains to be seen, but I expect that the more "complex" areas will be later in the game and probably optional.
I hate Mario. I like Luigi. Green is my favorite color so when I was a kid I always wanted to play as Luigi. I did not like Luigi's mansion. I wanted something like Sunshine or Mario 64, but with Luigi. Luigi was then in SMG, but you had to beat it first as Mairo.
I understand Mario is the mascot, but give Luigi a traditional game. Super Luigi U was a fucking joke. Those Mario games sucked.

i hate mario because he is racist

Bowser is gonna use his top hat to posses DK and steal every princess.

>By playing Mario and collecting one-ups you force him into a never ending cycle
>>381299712
I liked Luigi more when I was younger but now I've grown into liking Mario more, for whatever reason
>>381302254
>the only way to save Mario is to end the cycle of rebirth by sucking ass at the game
I was goddamn Buddha when I was a kid.
>>381299712
Go play mario 64 with luigi hacked in.
>>381298204
There are plenty of paths that lead you to linear platforming sections in the demo. New Donk City is the most hub-like level, with no enemies in sight during daytime. You go dick around and explore and can find moons, or hidden entrances to short platforming challenges, just like Delfino Plaza.
>>381299385
OH that Pauline. Damn Mario deepezt lore
>>381298204
go back to mario galaxy pleb
>>381298204
Looks like the Sunshine formula honestly. The only difference is the levels don't have big walls surrounding the play area
