Ok, lets settle this once and for all. Which 3D mario is the best? Dont forget to vote and reply.
strawpoll.me
Galaxy 1 didnt have Yoshi
World is objectively the worst
Odyssey is too easy.
64 aged like milk
Sunshine was never good.
Galaxy 2 is the correct answer. Fight me
I've got more nostalgia for Galaxy than it's sequel but 2 is objectively the better game.
I didn't like 2 as much, even back then.
when I first played galaxy fucking around in the hub world with the flight powerup was the funnest shit. 2 is fine game wise but nothing beats hubworlds. Wish more games did em
It's early but it looks like Zig Forums is actually right for once.
I always group them together in my head as the greatest mario game experience ever made. I guess that's kind of cheating but whatever.
Smh at Zoomers voting for Odyssey. Shitty bosses and way too many pointless filler moons.
The first time through the game is great and almost every level is beautiful, but I'd much rather be collecting stars, where everything has substance
Galaxy 2 was the start of Nintendo ereasing creativity from Mario. The lore is gone, the level select is a pathway and the levels are back to arrangements of blocks. Prove me wrong. Please.
The game itself is amazing and nothing else matters you stupid lorefag retard.
Lore is also a great part of a games experience
>level select is a pathway
doesnt matter, the levels themselves are important
>levels are back to arrangements of blocks
this happened in galaxy 1, then reverted to natural spaces in Odyssey
I hate to say it but I do feel like Galaxy 2 is a less cohesive and beautiful experience than 1 because of the lack of lore/hub. But Galaxy 2 is objectively better in pretty much every other way
Both of the games are just "Gimped 3D Mario running through floating obstacle course in space." 64 beats it easily
>the fucking whore that voted for World
That's not even remotely true for most levels, you either didn't play the game or you're lying.
64 is excellent too and that's ok
Mario has less than half of his movement which surprise surprise is one of the core fundamentals of a 3D Mario game which makes it a direct downgrade. The only thing galaxy fans have is "Muh lore!" And "Muh artstyle!"
>64 gaining ground
Cant say I blame people. Its one of my favorite games ever made. Its just handicapped by
>we dont know how cameras work in 3D space yet.
Galaxy 2 is just a mission pack sequel with a much worse hub world. Sure, it added Yoshi, but, eh, my heart is telling me to play Galaxy 1
It's not objectively better. They may have different strengths, but SMG2 destroys the progression and has none of the open areas (which was lacking in 1 too, but at least it had some)
>playing the vastly inferior, brainead unchallenging game beacause of "muh spectacle"
Are you a game journalist by any chance?
64 > 3D land = 3D world > Odyssey > Galaxy 2 >= Galaxy 1 > Sunshine
>Odyssey being voted as third worst
How come Zig Forums is so based today?
Galaxy 1 is the best one.
>putting world and land 2nd
The only redeeming factor for 3d world was the co-op.
Was going to go with my gut and say 64, but Sunshine perfected the formula. I can't give it to another title.
Sunshine.
Rate my taste
Galaxy 1 = Galaxy 2 > 64 > Odyssey > 3D Land > 3D World > Sunshine
ya, closest thing to a consensus answer here
Galaxy 2 > 64 > 3d World >Galaxy > Sunshine > Odyssey
Patrician comin' thru
galaxy voted
it felt more cosy than 2 probably because of the hub world
64 is a product of the limitations of its time, the only people who like it are losers desperate to recapture their childhood.
Sunshine is functionally better than 64 but the level design is attrocious.
Galaxy would be the peak of the series if it weren't for Galaxy 2 improving on its flaws, Galaxy 2 is the perfect 3D Mario experience.
3D Land and 3D World are fine as their own thing, they are a pretty successful blend of the 2D and 3D Mario gameplay styles without sacrificing the feel of either, they only lose points because having such a small scale right after the Galaxy games makes them look less impressive.
Odyssey isn't even a 3D Mario game, 3D Mario is not and has never been a collectathon experience, yes you get a tally of stars/shines/grand stars/goalposts but the way you collect them is fundamentally different to that of moons, previously those things would be awarded one at a time for doing long courses and completing complex missions, in Odyssey you get one every few minutes for doing meager shit like ground-pounding the correct tile or hitting the dove and winning an iPod, it's brainless and completely devoid of any satisfying platforming challenge, and the soundtrack is an abject disgrace after the soundtracks of the Galaxy and 3D Land/World series'.
I was about to disagree with what you said about odyssey's soundtrack because jump up super star embodied so much of the early switch lifespan hype and fun, but then I realized that steam gardens is probably the only other track that left a lasting impression on me.
based galaxy 2 bro
3D World > Odyssey > Galaxy 2 > 64 > Galaxy > 3D Land > Sunshine
