Literally not what I said,


The only thing you mentioned was how it looks:

It's like a movie that once had cutting edge CG in 1997 being viewed today.


It wasn't until you got called out on it that you decided to throw up the defense of it having bad controls and pacing issues. So you're pretty much trying to retroactively claim that it wasn't actually a good game when it came out.

The controls are fine. They were perfectly adequate for navigating the game world back then (and doing some pretty impressive maneuvers, in fact) and they still are today.

The only issue I have ever had with the controls of SM64 is how finicky it can be to get the camera in the position you want at times, which is something myself and countless others complained about back when it first released too. But you're acting like there's been some kind of monumental leap in platforming controls since then which is just objectively not true. Pretty much the only change that's even noteworthy since the release of SM64 is that many platformers these days have more than 8 directions on their analog stick. Also using a second analog stick for camera movement instead of the C-buttons, but camera control is still an issue today, so even that hasn't changed much.
