Incorrect. 20 years from now people will still remember how Nintendo was such a shitty/retarded company that they released a worse version of a decent game as their only launch title, and then proceeded to patch it for the sole purpose of making it less fun.

Yeah, it’s like they took all the soul out and replaced it with a checklist of marketable features. No charm, no innovation, just a bland husk riding on brand loyalty.

Absolutely fucking nothing of worth to the game itself except Knockout Tours. The only place the open world is actually used outside of a gorillion intermission tracks is the free roam, where you can do literally nothing of consequence as the game begs you to Press Start To Play, reminding you that you're not actually playing the game despite the fact this is the main draw of the game.

I didn't forget it.
But it's still boring straight lines only in any game mode I care about.
Online was dead for me after the first patch where they stopped us being able to get real 3 lap courses by selecting random.

It'd be so easy for them to fix, but hubris won't allow them to. We apparently have to like the boring straight lines.

Comparatively speaking, Crossworlds is a cheaper game to get than MKW since you don't HAVE to get a switch 2 for it.
However, it's still pricey, hence why so many people are waiting for a sale.

nta but when the store I bought my Switch 2 from restocked, they only had MKW bundles. I wasn't planning on getting Mario Kart but I also didn't feel like waiting to get a non-bundle just to save $50 so I said fuck it and bought it. I imagine if you didn't get a S2 on launch and waited until restocks then a lot of people's only option was a Mario Kart bundle

this could have honestly been cool if the free roam was actually good
hell Nintendo had over 20 years of open world racing games to look at to see what people like in them and they decide to make the most barren openworld you can think of
i would have been fine if it was a 2:2 copy of NFS most wanted with police goombas, stunt jumps and highway battles

the overworld is fine, it-s people that have had their attention span and idea of fun completely destroyed by the gaming industry's focus on achievements and collectibles. If people played NFS today they would complain it's useless and a waste of time because you don't get "anything meaningful" form doing it.

I like the game but the overworld needed far more content

boss battles, more of the very fun short platforming challenges (imagine the equivalent of champion's road but it's a long test of skill like the six already in the game), more hidden stuff like caves or underground areas and less fucking stickers

also the giant vehicles are a waste of time, the definition of a gimmick, there was so much more they could have done with them
