I don't really like Mario. I realize now that it's probably because it's a kind of game that no matter how much work I put into it, I will never be able to do, and the mainline games have literally nothing else to offer but 2d platforming gameplay, but I just.....don't like it? It's been 37 years of the exact same plot. No notable changes to the premise, gameplay or rhythm. Even in Mario 3D World, which didn't have Peach be captured and instead had her as an ally alongside Mario, the over all story is like, exactly the same you're just wandering around these kingdoms trying to save whatever.
This is just a gripe against this kind of game altogether, not Mario specifically, but I do not like how there's only one way through. I'm not talking about through the map there's shortcuts and stuff, I'm talking about in an individual level, you don't really have options. The full extent of your options are: go in this pipe or don't, go on this upper platform or don't. That's the only way your gameplay experience can vary from anyone around you. And many levels don't give you options at all. The fact that if you can't do something that's it, you're just done with the game REALLY bothers me. But Mario can literally only progress by running forward, and jumping over obstacles in his way. That's it. There's no creativity, there's no variation, there's no thinking even, you just. walk in a straight line for the duration of the game.
It's not that I hate the Mario franchise or anything, but how it's still a profitable property is beyond me.
... There uh.
There are... parts. All over the scooping room. And blood.
Their parts. Casing and wires and bits of endoskeletons everywhere...
They're... gone? They're gone. They have to be, I don't know what else could have happened. They're gone. Why can't I comprehend that? Why won't it stick in my mind? I'm not upset yet. Why am I not getting this?
There's nothing else that could have happened. I don't know why it happened but they're gone. I don't know where the blood came from, or who it belonged to, but my siblings are gone.
They're...
...
Caly? Are you still here?
Yeah.
Okay. Alright. Good. At least... I still have... someone...
Shhhhhh they will hear you...
Hear what?
wait. my nightmares about him have stopped?
