Also fuck journos for throwing 9/10s at this game and rewarding bad game design again and again and again

lol you advertise youtube videos for free

buy an ad, faggot

>>712670281 (OP)
journos are single handedly killing this medium or they already did. something they simply refuse to do is factoring in how derivative a new game is. you can literally make a 1:1 copy of dark souls or castlevania sotn and they give you minimum 70%

tendies going insane lmao

yes anon i'm sure you organically ran upon his video with half a dozen views uploaded less than an hour ago

>>712670640
Yes because I watched a bunch of videos explaining how shit the game is, as I stated in the OP

>>712670281 (OP)
Buy an ad faggot.

>why are journos like this?
You people do realise they give positive reviews in exchange for free review copies, right? The score was given before anyone involved even played the game.

>>712670413
Also indie slop.

>>712670413
I think journos are being ignored by more and more people. Their reviews follow trends more than they did before, they tend to avoid giving low scores to games people like or are excited for. Video game journalists are becoming irrelevant now that everyone has direct access to clips uploaded by devs, their favorite streamers with advance copies, Brazilian leakers, etc. tons of ways to see what a game is actually like rather than reading one guy's review.

>>712670863
i almost wish it was this simple but a bunch of games made by big companies do get low scores

The game could look like this if not for the pointless open world no one asked for and makes tracks boring af to drive.

>>712670281 (OP)
The funny thing is that tendies secretly agree the game is bad. For months they said that we will be able to disable the garbage transition roads because obviously that's what you would think because they are this shit. Now turns out you can't. You have to be lucky to not get them online. Tendies also said every costume getting a character slot is just for the demo because obviously it's fucking retarded. Turns out it wasn't.

>>712670281 (OP)
This guy has some good points. Make Mario Kart like Forza Horizon but don't include anything that makes the open world or online worthwhile. No radio control was funny. Mario Kart radio stations would go so hard. Also the clips he showed are so empty and devoid of players. Not even a full lobby. When I watched streamers play this like a week ago it was filled to the brim with players.

>>712671384
tendies just switch up like automatons though, they now say that the 2 minute landing strip intro tracks are actually le good

Okay but what do you personally think about the game based on your direct, first hand experience with it?

>>712670281 (OP)
It blows my mind that Nintendo somehow applied the open world meme to a fucking kart racer.

>>712671940
Game is average, and I mean that in a genuine way. Tech is amazing, the techniques are inuitive and time trial is genuinely skill intensive and fun. Grand prix is ruined, I gave 24 players a chance but you spend half the race getting hit by items. Sure Mario kart was always chaotic and volatile, but it was managable most of the time. I literally watch people go in reverse to get a lower place so they can get a gold shroom, it's so fucking dull. Intermission tracks are universally hated, most people at higher points like 8000 just pick random.

Nintendo Derangement Syndrome.

Lmfao OP, you realize advertising and begging for views is against the rules right?

op my man, ur accent was bothersome to me and i stopped watching

Not watching your video OP

Since the video triggered you tendies so much here are some more shitting on the game that you can whine about and try to downvote or get deleted (after they've gottena million views) :-)

Not watching your friends videos either OP

This is my first time finding out that you only get 1 lap of a course in Grand Prix and I genuinely can't understand it

>>712673381
game is not true open world and all tracks are dumbed down boring straight lines

>>712673381
it's mid and there is no reason to buy switch 2 until zelda. rewarding nintendo with sales right now is why gaming sucks

>>712671063
That looks like dogshit. You're kinda stupid

>>712673603
This, picrel is what we want

>>712673667

>>712673381
>Grand Prix / online isn't three laps of a track, it's two laps of straight lines in the open world and THEN the last lap is the actual track
>Open world is empty, only thing to do is small challenges which the game doesn't even keep track of (think Koroks in BotW/TotK if they didn't show up on the map)
Those are the big ones. There's a lot of little things but those two are basically in every video.

>>712671063
Why would I want my game to look like that?

>>712670498
why do pedos project?

this is how cartoony games supposed to look like: bright contrast colors. nintendo games look just like any other ue game with ugly desaturated filters

>already seeing bots online
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>712670281 (OP)
I bet a lot of the post-launch content will be the smaller tracks from the older games, there's no way they make another open world. Everyone is going to be saying that this is the greatest Mario Kart ever made in a couple of years.

I haven't played Mario Kart in ages. What's the point of the grind rails? You just hold A and they take you through that section of the course? As if most of these tracks don't look like straight lines enough already.

>>712676869
This game is incredibly technical and the grind rails in many sections of tracks are amazing at cutting time and giving you a lead. However this game is a disaster online with 24 players, trying anything cool often gets you killed.

>>712671063
Looks like shit, like you had HDR on and converted it to SDR. I assume you want something like this. I don't, at least not on this hardware. I'd rather have 60fps, plus I think the character designs are better in MKW.

>>712673741
MK is open world

>>712676869
It's a skill-gap thing, that and the wall riding. You can get a lot of speed boosts and pull off some crazy skips with both. I thought it was a gimmick at first but after playing it, I can say it's not.

>>712676550
I'd usually get a bot or two in Knockout, even on launch day. I think it's people just quitting, obviously people are playing Mario Kart.

>make a technical ass game
>shove in 24 players for pure retardation
>make all intermissions straight lines
i've never seen a game that could have been so great be so bad.

I liked this one better
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0HkpJhebpA

there literally isn't a single well designed track in this game. all boring giant lines with space for 200 players which lead you to a single giant curve which leads to another 20 seconds of a straight line.

>>712680307
The driving speed feels like that of a walking chair so even if the tracks were good you would still move at a snail's pace. No way other Mario Karts before this were that slow.

>>712670640
kek

>>712680307
last week I was thinking great ? ruins was pretty good and then after racing on it a couple times I realized its basically just a fucking circle too

>uh, here's something you should be MAD about, about Nintendo!!, says some guy on Youtube reading from an AI generated script
>meanwhile, people playing the game are having fun, and not complaining
ok

>>712673741
You can't say Nintendo doesn't know how to do circular shapes and than have clear rounded elements inside the same image. Looks at the sign on the bottom, yo ucan tell what is and isn't an artstyle choice. Heck even for the grass parts, I've seen gamplay footage of perfectly rounded turns on other tracks like Rainbow Road.

>>712670281 (OP)
unironically soul vs soulless

>>712670281 (OP)
I tried to watch this but couldn't get past the retard-tier accent. Just listen to how he says highway.

>>712680307
I think time trials is okay but the rest need help. I'd imagine this game will get updated over the next few years so I hope they modify the current maps to add a little more variety and emphasis on utilizing the wall, rails and other tricks to give players more advantage.

Also, I hope they adjust some of the the items that make front leading pointless despite riding the front of the pack on one of those straight lines for 2 minutes. Sure, comebacks are good for casual games but maybe reducing stun duration would be good since players can lose like 10-15 positions easily, especially with stacked items (particularly in knock out mode)

>>712670281 (OP)
I don't disagree with the complaints over the 3 laps thing but it's dumb how so many people keep mentioning the "competitive" scene with fucking Mario Kart. I don't think I could ever see Mario Kart as truly competitive but even ignoring that these people are aware Nintendo has made the games less "competitive" for years now like when snaking was removed after post-DS.

man did they hire literal children to do these time trial ghosts they are so fucking easy

LISTEN

who even plays 3 rounds race games? This is so old and boring.
Just like with the ATB in final fantasy, nobody like round based battles.
We want action, right into the action.
