Was anyone disappointed in the bosses in this game? They didn't feel all that inventive and there only felt like there were a few. The snakes were cool, so was the weird thing that turned into a bunch of little things and you had the double cherry, and the final battle was cool. But i remember in galaxy 2 i was constantly blown away by the sheer number and variety of bosses. Off the top of my head i can think of there was the pirhanna plant, the rolling thing you fight with rock mario, the dragon boss, the crazy bug on the leaf (my favorite), fluzzard, the other bug you fight with cloud mario, the robot you fight with the drill, that giant robot you fight with yoshi, the giant tower you fight with cloud mario...i think i might even be missing some. anyways theres like twice as many bosses and they are all different. i love sm3dworld but it just can't compete with galaxy 2 in terms of bosses. galaxy 2 absolutely destroys it in this category

God this theme is good. Glad someone got it on YT
I think we're better off without having some cool thing walled off behind a requirement which is honestly exasperating.

I disagree but I found out you get
the last 5 character stickers, which isn't necessary and fun if you get them.
In Mario games it's very easy for me to play them forever so it's never a bother personally.
So, what, you hide behind cracked walls and occasionally swipe at enemies every so often? EXCITEMENT
I'm thinking like a 3d, platforming version of rampage where you attempt to destroy the mushroom Kingdom.
Then the Mario crew comes. How long can you last?
Forever. Just don't stand on a POW block. 😉

Yeah get the green stars from easier levels....
I was four short and manged to get them from the first two worlds pretty easily.
I beat the game a few days ago and it is a really amazing game and I'm now
Anyways, I'm just wondering if this was just me but did anyone else find the eight main worlds pretty easy? I'm usually pretty terrible at games to be honest but I probably got 65-70% of the star coins and I did die a ton (mostly in multiplayer) but I never felt like the game was difficult, especially the final boss. Maybe it's a good thing that this game didn't infuriate me at all, or is it just that it the main worlds are all pretty easy? Well, either way this game is still fantastic.
going through the first bonus word (Rosalina is awesome).

I finally beat the final Mystery House. Moving onto the final part of the game...
.
Man, you guys weren't kidding with Champion's Road. ffff
Seriously... the amount of deaths... so sad.
At the risk of being called weak again, I completely agree. I really don't see the fun in it.
Incidentally, I decided I am going to try
Champion's Road

Peach makes it a little better, but I'm still dying.
I'm going to have to repeat this Champion Road course 4 more times afterwards too

Uh huh...
Lol, Euronymous back from the dead.
Me too? It just doesn't feel right playing a Mario game without using Mario.
There is one level you may need to play as peach.

I've been trying THAT level for 3 hours a sitting, can count on one hand how many times I've got to part with the plants a little after the 2nd star. I don't know how some of you do it, let alone do it after only a few hours of trying... I saw a youtube clip of someone beat the level and wanted to throw my controller at my computer in disgust.
Super Mario World is also really easy to complete.
The difficult content in Mario games is reserved for some of the green stars, and some of the post-completion content.

I asked for this very thing in my post-play survey.
Hm, a compelling argument!
lol. At least make the most of the new ideas they introduced in SM3DW. I think double-Mario is really fresh and change the way you do platforming quite a bit.
What survey?

Has anyone else seemed to not get Mii ghosts in their levels when replaying them?
I've had network functions and Mii ghosts turned on. But I've never seen any ghosts show up in my game, when I go back into a level again. Oddly enough someone else on the same console, when loading their save file, gets Mii ghosts regularly.

I figured that was the "right" way to do it.
Needless to say the last part had me questioning that decision many, many times.

I just finished the
Also adored the moodswing block level. My palms were sweaty during that entire thing, but I ended with 3 stars and the stamp, felt great to beat it.
Cat Bowser level. Fantastic way to end the first part of the game, since I quickly saw this journey had just begun.

I'm still unable to do it. Those darn beat blocks... And even when I make it past that, the plants part gets me.
best way to play the game, imo. the other characters are fun, and provide certain advantages, but the levels are balanced around Mario. you get the most consistent and satisfying level of challenge.
