With the next 3D Mario coming out next year (surely) I decided it was time to replay this game for the first time since 2017, just to see if it still holds the same place in my heart the way it did back then..
And it's just hard to believe how good this game is, it's the dream sequel to Mario 64, it does almost everything right, it's as perfect of a 3D platformer as it gets, like the only minor thing I dislike about it is the motion stuff, and I wish it had a hub world as good as Sunshine's, but that's it.. how do you top this? Is such a thing even possible?
How can you do another New Donk City festival? Or another Peach's castle? Or another Ruined Dragon? Or another you now control motherfucking Bowser himself?! These are some of the most magical moments I've experienced in gaming, hell I didn't think a game would make me feel like a goddamn kid again in 2017, and nothing I've played throughout these years came even close to beating it, and it's hard for me to imagine how they'll top this.
So the question is, are we looking at another 3D World next? Like, a great game, but ultimately pales in comparison to its predecessor? Or are you a full believer in what's next?
