Is multiplayer crippling Mario 3D World's level design?

This is a clear case on confirmation bias. You wanted a Mario Galaxy game, you didn't get it, so now every aspect of the game is automatically horrible.

I actually would have preferred something new and exciting over another Galaxy game, or at least a bigger, more intriate Maro 64 styled design.

People repeatedly say they want something new from Nintendo, yet then they fiercely object to any change and trash any game that messes with the formula.  At any rate the levels are decidedly not generic or autogenerated in any way....... unless the auto generator Nintendo had magically made levels that perfectly accentuated World's features.  And again, raft levels. 

I've been open to and happy with most of the changes Nintendo made to their games.

The levels didn't anywhere near perfectly accentuate the features; there were too many barren areas, basic enemy/obstacle placements, lack of or overly simple patterns, etc.

Please show me these big barren areas your're telling me about.
