With Switch 2 and presumably a new 3D Mario on the horizon, it's time for me to admit Super Mario Odyssey always felt a little weird (www.eurogamer.net)

It's the first Mario game in a while where I feel that a huge part of what the game offers is completely beyond me.

That's what the author feels is weird. That they find the game a bit too tricky compared to what they are used to. That and it feels new and strange.

I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll happen to you, too

Fucking git gud. It's Mario. Not a hard game.

I enjoyed the hell out of Odyssey, in large part because it has these kinds of combos and such. Nintendo did a great job of making a game that anyone can play and beat, but yet still offers some challenge for the folks who want to reach for 100% completion.
