No but the complaint about New Donk City looks pointless and still many people back it, the only reasoning behind it I heard is that it looks weird when we're talking about a game where a Plumber becomes a T-Rex... |
It doesn't matter how crazy the world is, that doesn't mean the design of the world, it's feel and character aren't of any note. Whatever the gameplay, abilities or mechanics are that doesn't mean something can't feel out of place, especially with a game with as much history as Mario.
Mario games generally have a certain feel and style. They don't have realistic representations of real-world creatures, DK's design is a mario-esque twist on a gorila. As a Koopa is to a turtle, and the Penguins in sm64.
When instead of "mario-izing" creatures, and leaving them as realistically proportioned and designed creatures (like the dinosaur in the odyssey trailer). It just doesn't feel very "mario" to me.
It's a small criticism about a small part of the game.
DK, Koopa's, Penguins, Yoshi's, Cheep Cheeps. They're all characters based on real world things.
That dinosaur isn't a character. It's a dinosaur. As the humans are humans.
