Ending sequence had me smiling the whole time. What a fucking great game. Onto post-game now!
Definitely the worst one, IMO.
Speaking for myself (although I suspect this is the case for most who finished it quickly), I primarily followed the main story path in each kingdom, and then moved on. I did take many detours to collect other moons, but I definitely didn't fully explore any of the kingdoms my first time through. I kind of regret that now, because playing the game like this makes it fly by really quickly (and also without much challenge). There isn't much "main" content in each kingdom, you're off to the next one before you know it. But if you're trying to do most of what you can in each kingdom before moving on I don't think you have to be afraid of the end coming up too soon.
Just rolled credits, ran around the new unlock area. What a fantastic game. Incredible from start to finish.
Just want to say the Wooded Kingdom music is amazing.
I felt like Wooded Kingdom was a breath of fresh air after Sand Kingdom. Lots of opportunities for neat platforming stuff there, while Sand Kingdom was really boring and flat.
I got to the Metro Kingdom and a certain sequence was just so good but I can't figure out why I loved it so much.
DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT MADE IT TO METRO KINGDOM!

The whole festival sequence somehow made me feel emotional in a way I rarely do in videogames but I can't figure out why as I have heard that song a dozen times or more before I even played the game and I was used to the brilliant 2D mechanic by that point. But somehow it all comes together for something that felt magical. At least to me.
Take a look at the flying ships with the binoculars in the Cap Kingdom. You might find something... peculiar ;)
I feel like my experience with Zelda BOTW and this game were backwards, in that Zelda starts of strong but got weaker as it went on, where as Odyssey starts off good but get's great once you hit Metro Kingdom.
So my personal best in Jump Rope is 55 and I'm not sure I'll ever hit 100.
It's infuriating being so determined to do something so minimal lol.
Damn these Moons.

What about that made it so amazing.
I talked about it a few minutes ago but it gave me the feels. Which I rarely get when I play games .
The main story of the game is very short. I feel that even shorter than Mario Galaxy because of the possibility to skip story scenes if you get enough moons.
How's everyone playing the main quest of the game? Playing it in the relaxed way, trying to search for moons and advancing to the next kingdom or absolutely clearing it before moving to the next one?

Pretty much letting my attention/interest drive me. Sometimes that ends up meaning getting every moon. Other times, I just follow the critical path.
i'd search a lot of nooks and crannies, but not every nook and cranny. i got like 20-30 moons and most of the purple coins in each kingdom before moving on.
it's impossible to absolutely clear before moving on, and it's impossible to know which ones you can do or can't do, so it's best to just hang out in the kingdoms for a little bit and movie on. come back after Bowser.
Anyone have some tips for getting the moon for hitting 100 at the jump rope? Once I hit 50 I always mess up. Tried a few times and can't get close at all :(
It felt like a celebration of Mario. It also felt like a celebration of you, the player, being thanked and cheered on for years of believing in Nintendo. Combine the overwhelming positivity with fireworks, an extremely upbeat vocal song and main theme playing (which is usually reserved for the final boss victory lap), and you've got yourself a truly memorable moment. And then you actually get to watch a fully animated concert of a band you recruited. So cool!
After I get to the fastest point, I don't watch the rope anymore. It's easier to just follow the rhythm than anything else.
I'm not really sure myself, either, haha. It just comes together in a fantastic way.
The fireworks, the anticipation it builds by showing you the 2D rooms in the distance from the beginning, the song, the DK homage, the dance at the end... maybe even the way the city sort of looks 1980s-y? Whatever it is, it works really well.
Several hours in. This game is magical in the best Nintendo way. Also, I've felt off trying to jump in the last few 3D Mario games. Odyssey feels perfect
Man, these purple coins are going to be the death of me. Always three or four left in each world, nowhere to be found...
He's actually the easiest one of the bunch. When he inhales before doing his spin puke move you can just hit his cap with yours and jump on him before he can even do the whole thing. Just hit him before he starts pukig and jump on his head while he's spinning.
When he does his moving around under his hat just avoid him and do the spin cap move to get rid of as much puke as possible.
Do I have to manage 100 in volleyball as well for the second moon? That is way harder than the rope one.
Decided Cascade Kingdom would be my first post-game dive. Maybe it's the music or the layout but I love the level a lot, definitely one of my favorites. Also found a couple of areas I completely missed the first time through. The sense of exploration is fantastic.
finally, got all the moon, except the one in the final secret hard level, it's very long so i tried only two time, will do it tomorrow!
i feel you man, even after getting all the moon, i'm still missing two coin in new donk and three in seeside

Just got to the ground level of New Donk City and it's absolutly bonkers. This game will move so many Switches this holiday season. Wish the music was as memorable as 3D World, though.
Recent Mario Games have done a good job of making for a memorable finale. I thought the ending was the strongest part of 3D World and 3D Land, and I really like the Final Bowser stages in the Galaxy games.
That's my only complaint about the game till now. The music kind of fades into the background. Except Wooded Kingdom, which is awesome! Still nothing on the level of Hisstocrat but I am still early in the game so I hope there's something good.
i really hope we get a full OST that has some of the more obscure music. The music when riding a livewire in Bowsers Castle keeps playing in my head, but you only get to hear it a few times and in small breaks. i need it on my phone
Yup. It sucks too, because the whole process takes so much longer.
For a guy who doesn't play a big role in the game, I really liked Jaxi's backstory.
Also it's possible to get all the purple coins in the Sand Kingdom on your first visit? I left it with a few coins short, I should get my Bowser amiibo to help me track them.

Are the costumes that are gradually unlocked post-game RNG? I got a hat and then didn't get the costume to go with it on my next hat unlock
This game is crazy good so far. It's refreshing. 3D World really didn't grab me, so Galaxy 2 was the last time I enjoyed a 3D home console Mario game
Right now I'm just finding all the moons I can without killing myself, then moving on to the next area. I kind of like that the Switch doesn't have a trophy system. Makes it easier to not obsess over finding everything in every area.
Also I've made an executive decision that Mario will wear a sombrero for the remainder of the game

I hope we do as well. "Jump Up, Super Star!" actually did pretty decently on the iTunes Charts when it was released so hopefully that encourages Nintendo to release the entire ost.
Hmm, shouldn't be. Always goes hat -> outfit. I have them all now and it never changed, which one is it?
you can enter the Odyssey through the tail pipe. neat little easter egg
yeah, it does certain unlocks at certain moon counts, hat then moon, and it's not RNG.
Sweet Jesus yes, I need a soundtrack release. Listening to
Bowser's Kingdom
I unlocked some kind of samurai shirt, and the next unlock was Bowser's wedding hat (but not the suit)
Maybe the samurai shirt doesn't have a hat to go with it?
Just beat him. I didn't realize you don't have to wait for him to choke before jumping on him. Super easy. Thanks
