Mario Odyssey looks far more ambitious than the already ambitious Zelda BoTW

Forget about it.  Mario fans never want to believe their favorite can be outdone.

Ir rather that you dont have arguments to write back and so you just pull "cant argue with blind fans" ridiculous argument?

I could argue with you, sure.  But it'd go in circles.  We're clearly on opposite ends and if you look at this thread, most who don't have a hype boner realize this is just the next Mario game and not a series makeover like Breath of the Wild. 

Think of a 30 second first look of these two games.   In 30 seconds, Odyssey looks like a Mario game.  In that same time, BotW had most people asking "this is Zelda?"  

I could make the argument that using the possession ability to solve puzzles and the world being "ginormous with endless goodies and exploration" by saying the words "Banjo Tooie."  While you don't possess enemies, you use Banjo and Kazooie's abilities and transform into other forms to solve the puzzles of the world and collect jiggies.  And the worlds are so big that the N64 couldn't handle them, even with an expansion pack.

So I'll take your bait this time, but it's just to let you know there's no point in going on arguing - we're not going to change each others minds.  Odyssey is creative and sure to be content rich, but it's not a genre defining, series REdefining that BotW is.
