Also, on the topic of rankings, where would our XIV players place their Warrior of Light on a ranking of series protagonists?

As a Dissidia player I would like to rank Warrior of Light last he sucks and is boring

I don't think I've ever been this angry at a star in a Mario game, from getting to it to the actual challenge itself. This is absolutely awful.

I'd say Locke's been looking the weakest of the 3 VI characters but it can go either way

hey fun thing I found out, if you get on the last boat before the island too early, as it's making its turn back to the island you can slide off into the water! Awesome!

The only issue I had with the camera was that I couldn't turn it if there was a wall/object on the way, and so the visibility was pretty terrible at times. I got used to it, but it made some stars (like the one with the secret coins inside the pyramid) artificially painful when they were very simple. My other complaint is that I wish they had fixed the distance tech limitation from the 64, where objects disappear with distance, but that distance is like... nothing.

I had a lot of fun, though. I did realize a lot of very lazy stars (like in Tall, Tall Mountain, about 3 stars are just "climb to the top", lol), which makes me wonder why people complained about Odyssey's throwaway moons. You could probably get all stars in 64 super quick if they didn't kick you out of the levels and make you redo the same thing over and over.

This I can agree on! It did dawn on me while going through Big Boo's Haunt like "wow 3 of these stars are literally just beat the big Boo" which I still enjoy doing, just funny to see that they technically copy and pasted a bunch in slight variations. And yea the draw distance limitation can be annoying at times.

I wouldn't say Seymour is a top 5 guaranteed, top 10 should be pretty safe though

---

so you....turn the camera

But anyway, yea having just done 120 stars in 64 there is nothing in that game as frustratingly slow and aggravating as getting Yoshi to that one island. Not even the red coin shine itself, just the amount of time you have to sit and wait for the stupid boats and potentially slipping off because Yoshi is so floaty and having to start over

spray slide is fun but long jump is just way more on the fly useful I think

And I guess some people will just never see eye to eye on the camera, I feel bad for those that have that much trouble with it

Sunshine's controls are a lot more fluid, the camera is better, and there's never a point where I think "That death was bullshit." In Sunshine like in Mario 64.

Funny enough I actually think Sunshine controls TOO loose. And things like missing the long jump really hurt it in my eyes

Camera I've said earlier is the one thing Sunshine has objectively better than 64, but I also still never had so much of a problem with 64's. When you know how to use it 64's camera is actually surprisingly manageable.

And actually I think Sunshine has more bullshit death situations! Maybe not "cheap" per se, but when you're doing the red coin switch for Hotel Delfino for instance, if you run out of time the game treats it as a life and bumps you out. First tine doing it I knew I wasn't gonna get the last red coin because I forgot how to get to the room where it was, so I thought "alright lemme just make my way back to the switch and I'll pop it again when the time ends" and then Mario just keeled over. Why not let the player just hit the switch again, why is it treated as a death situation? Same with the Balloon roller coaster ride, if you don't get them within the 3 loops the game just kills you arbitrarily and kicks you out. And to a lesser extent, touching the water oncr in that red coin lily pad one. In 64 whenever I died it was because of my own fault, sometimes some wonky camera work contributed to that but ultimately I fucked up a jump or movement so that was on me. Sunshine has way more bullshit setups for things to fail you I feel.

I'm up to 61 shines (66 if I cashed in my blue coins I have) and yea I really don't know how someone could put this above 64. Like it's still a Mario game so it's still enjoyable but geez there's some really not great stuff in it.

it's more the whole "having to redo the unclogging with Yoshi" that irks me. Like sure I didn't realize that I got to that island with Yoshi having only 1 life remaining so partly on me but it should absolutely saved that you unclogged it so you just need to swim back to it and jump down the pipe

---

You were the cancer, that's all you'll ever be

Imagine having to spend all that time getting Yoshi hopping from boat to boat to get to that one island to unclog it, only for it to be a red coin water = death shine that if you game over on you have to unclog it again

Sunshine got me done for the night lmao, this game has some really dumb shit in it

I can't believe Aerith survived when literally all 4 of her supporters vanished, damn. What a relief.

Not sure she survives if Nanis doesn't go with her in that deal... what a bro

I mean it's still Aerith/ a key FF7 person at the end of the day though. Knew people like you and whoever else were waiting to snipe her safe so she wasn't in any super super terrible danger

He kind of picks and chooses when he does, early in the contests he usually does to get as many 7 people along as possible. And now that we're getting near the top he has to start cutting his losses

So I completed 120 stars in 64 and started playing Sunshine, first time I've ever played it. 31 Shines so far so I've played a good chunk to make some observations

• one of the first things I said was "wow I miss the long jump" and I still miss it
• FLUDD is fun enough, spraying and sliding around places is cool
• I suck at the spin jump
• when you get the fishbowl helmet and have to swim underwater, I honestly hate it and actually think controls worse than Mario 64's swimming controls. Why the hell can you only really control going up and down and pretty much just hoping to fall/fludd up into where you need to go instead of being able to control actually being able to, you know, swim around. Unless I missed something with it.
• Pachinko star is indeed wonky as hell although I could have had worse luck with it

Overall, yea definitely would never put it above 64. It has a fully controllable camera but that's about all it has on 64, and the camera in 64 still doesn't really bother me all that much outside a few spots. Sunshine's fun though, and very weird at points which is cool.
