Only watched the intro but he's 100% right about Odyssey, so I can only assume he's right about DK

Odyssey was just OK, the thing with switch is most people took a 15+ year break from Nintendo (Wii was just a weird fad, galaxy didnt sell well) so it felt fresh. The whole genre is tired if you’re an old not to mention kid-friendly and always chasing the dragon of the godlike Mario 64.

Wii was just a weird fad,

Outsold PS3 and 360. Second best selling Nintendo console after Switch (excluding Gameboy/DS).

It was kind of like PS1. Huge console sales, lowish game sales. Galaxy sold 12m, Wii sold 100m. Galaxy 2 sold 7m.

Odyssey was just too easy, it barely felt like a game, more like a theme park ride. I watched some DK Bananza on YouTube and it looks similarly easy imo.

Been watching a few Twitch streams of this game, it's the most boring shit imaginable, you are literally just running around smashing shit, there's essentially zero resistance or effort.

I could tell it was low-effort as soon as I saw the environments. They look like something out of a lauch Xbox 360 game. I was thinking Kameo: Elements of Power. And they aren't designed for precision platforming. If it wasn't attached to a major nintento license, it would be a 6.2/10.

I wonder sometimes where all of the goodwill even comes from. The SNES library on the Switch online gives me the exact feeling I had contemporaneously which was like holy shit this is like 60 hours of cumulative first-party content to cover an entire gen and not all of it is great. Even for most of the SNES gen I was like "jesus christ next Gen will be so much better." Nintendo was outshined by 3rd parties on the SNES moreso than any platform imho. No one else says this.

And then N64 came and their 30 years of Humiliation started. So I wonder if that's why the fanboys are so passionate. Just because they Lost so many gens. A passionate af cohort of Losers.

A video game “critic” monotonously droning on that his Ape Smash video game is no fun and represents the dawn of Idiocracy is too meta for me

This is good.

I like the author's "conspiracy theory," that the current trend of gaming has to do with the lowering of the global IQ.

I thought this game looked like shit and I'm glad to see someone who agrees.

Couldn’t get through the whole video. Sounds like some edgy dude trying to get clicks.

Bananza is a fun game tho. It’s a 9/10 3D platformer.
