Is “”dishonest”” the new word for “shit”? Like that’s definitely the worst star in the game, but how the fuck is it dishonest?

The 1UP in the Whomp Fortress castle

Define "dishonest" in the context you're using it

How were you suppose to know?

You FUCKING CAN'T.

You can see the seam where the wall breaks away if you're paying attention.

why not just grab the star through the seam then

You can.

> the hint straight up tells you to blast into a wall

Bad game design then.

You only need 75 of the 120 stars to get to the final boss, so having a few obscure stars among them is fine.

this
same people shit their pants over the skutualls in OoT when in fact there was no need to collect all of them and got the adults wallet just for collecting half

70*

0* Unless you fuck up DDD skip

game design where you have to kill yourself on purpose in order to restart after you messed something up is really stupid... mainly happens in old games

They really should ban fake outrage threads

the entire level is a wall

Why does the sound for breaking objects in SM64 have that loud annoying “boing” noise in it?

is there any level in SM64 where you can get the level into an unwinnable state where you're no longer able to collect any star?
they reuse the same levels and most of the stars are obtainable during any 'mission' anyway

Hey wait a minute! My copy of the game doesn't look like that! The personalization meme must be true.

probably not, i wasn't talking about sm64. it's pretty well designed

>"blast away" hints that you have to use the cannon
>the only wall that you can shoot into the cannon is the one where the star is
NOOOOOOOO WHY ISN'T THERE A CUTSCENE THAT TELLS ME WHERE TO GO

brainlet the wall you need to blast away is right in front of you and is textured differently

This board is fucking trash reddit is so much better.

I didn't know what this meant until this happened to me

There's a floating platform you can see behind the wall. So at some point you will try and do it, probably clip the wall and break it. I'd argue this is GOOD game design.

You're basically admitting you're retarded or have autism

Its funny that this star was so easy to me when i was a kid, i didnt even knew how to speak english, but i just send mario blasting to walls cuz i thought it was funny.

explain

i got all 120 stars with a friend when we were 13 armed with nothing but a dictionary since neither of us spoke a lot of english so you can believe me when i tell you i'm not trying to help op's case here

but on your average crt at the time i really don't think it was that noticeable, pretty sure we just kept guessing until we hit the right one

I still remember the commercial that actually showed it.

Because fun, fuck you

what's the point of adding crouch jumping to the game? is there any reason to ever not crouch jump instead of regular jumping?

I don't think at any point in the game you could actually jump upwards and so far away from your position so you wouldn't think it was even possible

When you get in the cannon it is the only wall visibly blocking line of sight in a very noticeable way.
