For every one of those videos though one could post like a hundred about why Galaxy is good. I do agree with you on one thing you mention in another post though; Mario 64 is the best, easily. However, isn’t liking that game, since it’s even older, not just because of ‘nostalgia’? Then you’re in luck, because Galaxy barely uses motion controls. Just to activate the jump stars and as a way to quickly grab the Starbits. And if you play the Switch version there’s even less of it! |
When we talk mario 64 we have to consider the hardware and time it released with 3d gaming being new and all. It's way ahead of it's time and mario 64 still controls great, with a good amount of exploration and platforming challenge. 7th gen was not limited by hardware or games being new to 3d.
The only thing i hear about how mario galaxy being great is that it's creative, and the hubworld and story being great. They ignore the fact that running around a sphere and doing brain dead things to shoot to another sphere kills platforming, or how mario is sluggish with very floaty jumps. There little to no exploring or secrets in the game, which is a staple for mario games. So basically no exploring or secrets, mid controls with very little great platforming levels so running around spheres and doing brain dead things makes this best game ever.
