Graphics help tell the story or give the game charm, they should not be the focus of the experience, but merely a pleasant cherry on top of an already good game; doubly so when it comes to Mario. We already know the story, we already understand the gameplay, there's absolutely no reason in the world to complain about perfectly charming graphics just because the game isn't utilizing the full power of the system it's on. That doesn't mean you can get away with the bare minimum, but a game like mario has always been about solid platforming and level design, no mario game (with the plausible exception of super Mario RPG) has ever been about stretching the boundaries of its respective hardware. Frankly, if I'm going to complain about anything regarding New Super Mario Brothers 2, it's going to be about what I expect to be a shortage on levels. given the inevitably huge sales this game will get, it wouldn't kill them to take the time to add more levels, it'll still make a monstrous profit. Graphics whores bother me. |
@paragraph 1. I don't like the graphics, they are underwhelming, Nintendo could have done a better job. I think that's a fair statement.
@graphics being the cherry on top. I'll make you a game just like mario with great dynamics, and I'll make the main character a piece of Shit with a red hat, running across levels that look like their taken from a Chinese ripoff of mario kart. We'll see how much you enjoy it.
@bold. Yes, we will continue to butt heads because you do not cease to misconstrue my PoV. I realize the gameplay may have its flaws (not enough levels), I realize the importance of that. When I ask for a AAA game, I ask for it in all aspects. Sorry if my standards are a little higher than yours.
@the last sentence. You can imagine how many comebacks I can come back with. I'll spare you the shame.
