This game is literally garbage tier. Shitty bland unmemorable levels, crappy elevator music pretty much just some bad background noise, horrible controls having played Crash Team Racing just before... This is the worst Mario Kart and one of the worst racing games I ever played.

Went back to my Gamecube and tried out Double Dash to see if I remember wrong but nope, Double Sash controls are soooo much better! Better levels and gameplay and music like WHAT?
Modern games are degrading it is unreal, already had to sell DK Bananza and now selling this crap too.

Not sure if you are being serious here. As there is far to much context and nuance in this post. I simply can't take it all in.

How many hours have you put in?

How many hours have you put in?

My play time shows I have over 100 hours but I'm sure some of that was doing circuits, online, or idle. The bulk would just be open world exploration.

Just a troll. Throw on your ignore list and watch for his name to appear in the Ban list.

Epic........ 50 hours in and nowhere near any of that. I don't know what the fuck I have been doing with my time lol...

Damn!!! Nice job!

Damn!!! Nice job!

I had to lookup six P-Switches most of which were really obvious but when I explored the map, I usually took the same rotational pattern which made overlooking them easy to do and incredibly shortsighted on my part. I did have to lookup about 40 Peach Coins which actually meant redoing them all as the sticker rewards for those are random (uh) so there is no easy cross reference and a good handful of those coins are hid incredibly well which made me feel less bad for "cheating".

Welp, I suppose that I figured out my 3star woes.

I have 3stars on 3 of the cups, but the rest are proving extremely difficult. I have been struggling with Flower Cup, Wario Stadium. It turns out that the CPU is using a banner overhead to grind on in the late stage of the course. I don't know how to use that banner, and I am not interested in the wall riding stuff to that extreme and common usage. It's why I don't go online and race; I have no friends to race with, and people are going to be wall riding and taking insane shortcuts so I won't ever have a chance at winning. I still might take a crack at online, content to languish in the middle and rear of the pack. Maybe I can make some online friends that way at least. *shrug*

I unlocked Mirror Mode and all the costumes, so the insanely ridiculous Kamek characters are all that's left. I figured that I'd simply unlock those over time as I worked on 3stars in all cups, but it looks like those will be undoable for me. So...I guess I'm done with Mario Kart World already? That's really fucking lame. Oh well. I have DK Bananza to start so I am covered as far as having something to play.

Thanks for reading my vent. Happy Karting!

The latency issue is really starting to annoy me. I ran over someone with the big mushroom, and they were still going full speed as if nothing happened.

Okay, I'm done mentally defending this game.

Besides the online lag where you visibly see a player being hit, but nothing happens. The random power up power you get, (ie. having the bullet power last certain ammount of seconds. Boomerang usually allows 3 throws but i was only able to throw it once (this happened twice tonight) . The "intermission" race into one lap of the main course.

This shit is straight ass and its getting frustrating. I feel like the rules apply randomly to anyone.

I may just go back to Deluxe 8. Its not perfect, but its far more entertaining and fun than this $80 heap of trash.

Not giving Kotaku clics, so I haven't read the details.

But the AI doesn't really need nerfing. What the game needs is to give the leading human driver a chance to get good items once in a while instead of coins, bananas, green shells and the rare blowhorn. Even the triple green shell would be a godsend when the AI is inevitably going to throw you the three red shells when you're in sight of the goal in the last race of a tournament. At that point they can even make the AI more competitive.

There is a new update for the game.

I loved Mario Kart 8 on the Wii U and Switch. But after playing world I just can't go back. The add on courses kind of ruined it for me as their quality was so jarring compared to the original deluxe content. Once you can free roam in this awesome Mario themed landscape all in awesome HDR....( Once you have your settings all correct ). Anything else seems simply mundane.

[LavitzSlambert]

I have yet to return to this game after playing a couple cups and some free roam. This is the fastest I've been over any Mario Kart game, with basically no desire to go back to it except maybe as a party game with friends (but honestly would greatly prefer to just turn on MK8D or SSBU). They bet the whole game on the tricks and I hate it.

 

[Hudo]

I fucking hate the blue shell.

The blue shell hates you as well

 

[Luipadre]

Good, more update and content needed, because the game is really lackluster.

 

[Daniel Thomas MacInnes]

Well. Ya know, if anyone out there is truly unhappy with the Switch 2 & Mario Kart, I'm more than happy to take it off your hands. My 5-year-old loves it. Frankly, I should have started saving up a year ago.

Nintendo actually nerfing the broke ass AI is something I never believed I would actually see
