    Half the reason fighting games do seasons for DLC now is that it gives them a chance to better balance the game

    Its much easier to work the bugs out of a smaller and then incrementally larger roster than an enormous one from the jump

    Plus it provides a good break to make the large sweeping changes the roster might need between seasons

    Well I did my good deed for the day.

    Was on the train home from class with a friend, who has an xbox but doesn't play a ton of games. He mentions that he got his partner a switch for christmas cause his partner really like Mario. So I say "Cool, I take it you got him the game too?". To which my friend replys "Oh ya. They had that new mario party game so I picked that up". Cue me getting this distressed look on my face and proceed to tell him about Odyssey. Long story short he sounds like he's about to trade the game he purchased for Odyssey and I think I just single handedly saved his relationship.

    When all you know about somebody's game preferences is that they like "Mario" I'm never recommending a bad minigame collection over the actual good Mario game on that system. I've seen what mario party does to relationships.

    I am his savior.

    Super Mario Party is a better Mario Party game than Super Mario Odyssey is a Mario platformer.

    That sure is the most unique take I've seen about both Super Mario Party and Odyssey.

    That sure is the most unique take I've seen about both Super Mario Party and Odyssey.

    To be clear since my attempt to make it pithy may have muddled the meaning,

    Super Mario Party is among the best games in the Mario Party franchise, taking what worked from the previous ones and changing things to make what didn't work better.

    Super Mario Odyssey on the other hand is really underwhelming compared to the full breadth of Mario platformers. It's got a high quantity of content but at the expense of a tightly-crafted experience, preferring novelty over compelling design.

    Within their respective roles in the Mario franchise, Super Mario Party stands out against its peers while Super Mario Odyssey is frequently overshadowed by its.

    Odyssey is brilliant, no matter what you compare it to. Being the best Mario Party only required the game to not be an utter trash fire.

    I haven't played Mario Odyssey, but Super Mario Party is a very good game.

    I wouldn't rank it as the best Mario Party, but in terms of group/party games that came out this year? It is spectacular.

    I appreciate that there are people who've had great experiences with the Mario Party series but I never once have

    I also understand longtime Mario fans' criticisms of Mario Odyssey but for a general non-fan such as myself I found it a fairly delightful experience

    Couldn't disagree harder on this. There's very little about Odyssey that's brilliant. It is at times, at most, briefly clever, but even then it undermines that very cleverness by making absolutely everything an isolated little experience that never really builds on itself or anything else in the game to lead to something greater or more complex.

    Mario Odyssey is a good game and Super Mario Party is a good game.
