It's actually so much better than Mario 64 it's unreal

They're different games and both good for different reasons.

No, it's legitimately terrible, a total slog to play, and its only appeal is exclusively as an autistic toolbox for speedtroons and romhacks.
>absolutely atrocious camera constantly getting stuck on terrain, spazzing out, facing the wrong direction, refusing to go where you want it to
>slippery and inconsistent physics, especially underwater, snow, or on slopes. Not to mention Mario turns like a fucking boat and ricochets off walls like a fucking bouncy ball
>2D Mario's momentum and physics work in a 2D environment where you always have a perfect view and perspective of the action; it's significantly worse in a 3D environment where you are constantly fighting the camera and there are fundamental limitations to perspective/depth perception
>these momentum and physics are especially egregious when the movement is relative to aforementioned awful automatic camera that refuses to go where you want
>constantly boots you out after every star and makes you retread each stage a half dozen times all the way from the beginning of the stage with a tiny stupid piecemeal change
>a dozen frivolous jumps with dial a combo system for platforming is just extra abstraction bullshit that further separates the game from feeling like a natural extension of self
>overall level/enemy/hazard design are extremely basic and boring, mainly as a result of the extremely open-ended movement combined with the dogshit camera
>constant easter egg hunt for random bullshit grows old very quick
>artstyle is just very bland and the whole game lacks charm and character
It feels like a glorified fucking tech demo for 3D movement. As a game, it is just awful.

OP is the same person making these threads.

This, he's also Eric, and Auster, and every other boogeyman the schizos drummed up rolled into one

>dial a combo platforming
every time it makes me chuckle harder
