Another annoying thing is that since the town technically counts as a sub area, it has no map and is just counted as a single point on the main map, so you can’t use the map to help find moons in the town.

I know the Shiverean Cheep Cheeps are just lazy recolorings of the regular Cheep Cheeps, but it really fascinates me. The fact that we got a whole new species of fish in one kingdom just makes me believe there’s a special biology full of underwater enemies. I don’t know, it maybe their warm bodies talking as I’m dying from hypothermia.
Okay, while the Snow Kingdom is very mediocre for an Odyssey Kingdom, I still give it credit due to the presentation when you initially enter the Kingdom. At first, its very mysterious due to all the snow and the ice water preventing you from exploring, so the only place you can go is to fall into the center of the snow... until you fall into a town of friendly and adorable bear people. It really caught me off guard, and more importantly, left a big impression on me
I honestly enjoyed this kingdom a lot. As a noob, the linear sub-levels were fun and it had a great cozy asthethic. It would be cool if we could go into the Shiverians's homes for more exploration and little hidden moons
"I believe that this kingdom contains the hardest moon in the entire game, that being the Iceburn Snow Class S Circuit" _Breakdown Road-Final Challenge would like to know your location_
The aspects I disliked about Snow Kingdom were basically the same that made me not fully enjoy every kingdom in the game. While I love Super Mario Odyssey I think they should stay away from making either small or bland kingdoms. I think that all of the big kingdoms should have more enemies and hazards in order for them not to get boring and the smaller ones should not only also have more enemies but should also be bigger in size.
I would’ve made the Snow Kingdom based off of Russia - with colorful, candy-like onion roof castles, and maybe have a secret Soviet-style concrete bunker that could also be a reference to the svalsbard seed vault.
honestly my main problem is just how small the town is. It really is just one long hallway with a few tiny offshoots. it doesn't feel like a place real people could live and it loses that coziness for me. I wish it was a larger underground area (almost like the underground city from wet dry world, just, less creepy and abondoned) also the outside should be on top of a snowy mountain or something. Having the walls souround you makes it feel incredibly boring and small
I will say that I actually really like the blizzard time in the Snow Kingdom, it's so dark and mysterious, and the small landscape isn't as much of an issue because you have to feel your way around, I think this segment could be a little longer to make finding moons in the kingdom a little more rewarding, but I think a big improvement would be when the blizzard lifts to be presented with a huge snowy wasteland, mostly flat, ice regions to skate on, and big ice and snow sculptures sticking up out of the ground... then take the shiveria town and stick part of it above the ground. A unique mechanic for this world could have been pushing around the large snow sculptures that let you physically rearrange the world
Found ur channel a week ago and I’m obsessed with your videos already! This game has so many things to explain and explore and it’s awesome to see other people as into this game as I am
Whenever I get to that second fork on the globe, I like to choose the Snow Kingdom first just to get it over with. LOL The music and civilians here are charming, but this kingdom feels too closed-in and like a small crater for my liking. This is definitely my least favourite out of the "full" kingdoms.
I honestly would've made it so that it was a large kingdom with lots of areas to explore, the middle is bland but the edges are colorful and bright, on the outside of shiveria you only see the bland part during the story, but once the blizzard is cleared is when you'll get kind one of those cool seaside moments with the sunset. Then it'll be like a split decision on which side you want to explore next, with the middle being the hub of shiveria and at least 3 moons to keep you in the middle.
The way you ended was hilarious. "Dry Bones for Smash and I'll see you all in the next one." Also, can you do "Why the Wooded kingdom is the most popular" video?
Next can you do your thoughts in lake kingdom. It's one of my favourites since I hate water levels and this one erases that though. And it's quite fun do the koopa racing
You- you can’t compare a 2D Mario game to a 3D one, many 3D Mario games have unique styles, super Mario galaxy being the best example; but SM3DW also does some cool stuff
Personally I think that small icy isolated atmosphere is exactly what they wanted It plays to the theme of the level I think it wants you to feel isolated With the damn near deadly cold water constantly placed around the level The shivering airy surface If it had a chilling ambience it would be perfect I get that it runs against the theme of the rest of the game but imo it serves to make it more unique I think the way to fix it would be to make the raised platforms a lot bigger with more to explore And to make parts of the water much deeper with fun moons to try to race to Otherwise if it did how you wanted I think it would end up feeling like "just like these levels" in comparison to the rest of Odyssey imo So for me personally Cap Kingdom is the most mediocre It literally just does its job It doesnt break the mold It's not too big It's not got too much to explore It's just "okay"
How did NOT get recommended this 6 months ago!? I've been complaining about Shiveria forever now and I haven't seen much discussion about it. I'm so glad you properly voiced these criticisms because I share them too. Also, you talking about removing the walls makes me think it'd be cool if the walls were gone and just have the kingdom be on top of a mountain. It'd make sense since the locals like to roll and it'd feel awesome looking down from a huge mountain
I think the largest problem is that over half of the purple coins are in the 4 sub areas. 10 more are inside the town(That's ok), so there are only about 15 outside.
0:50 ok so I’m not the only one who makes the selecting cascade kingdom mistake. Anyway, I figured that this kingdom could’ve been improved in multiple ways, but honestly there should’ve been more to shiveria town. Some overworld music in the normal area would be nice. Good video
I like the walls but if they were wider and had a different shape it would b cool. Or many things to do on the walls like climbing, skiing, or sliding around on them would be neat.
To give credit to the Frozen Cheep Cheeps, normal Cheep Cheeps are shown to not have an immunity to ice, so there would need to be a varient that was made specifically for icy water.
One idea I’ve had for the snow kingdom is a sort of hot spring. The water wouldn’t hurt you, and the interior would be themed around channeling this water into public baths and pools.
thats funny cause for me personally this is one of my most fond and memorable ones haha, maybe its just the cute winter aesthetic and music that did it for me
I remember when Lego Mixels was around, the creators didn’t make the e Frosticon’s land just a basic ice world. They added massive ice pops and ice creams everywhere, making it a more desert based location. This could’ve been great for odyssey.
Watching this 3 years after the fact, but you hit the nail on the head, the first part of the level needs some verticality. Like in Mario 64, both ice levels were based around tower like structures. I remember spending 20 minutes trying to jump on those clear ice pillars near the central platform thinking they'd do something interesting. Perhaps had they had a central ice tower above the town entrance that had some platforming elements to reach the top for moons, the area would have felt more cohesive rather than disjointed.
You know what you consider the small kingdoms are either linear yet still fun kingdoms like the darker side or are meant to be for story purposes and for a boss fight like Ruined kingdom. At least a small kingdom while it lacks in size it makes up for in challenge the darker side is a perfect example of that. The only exploring that can be done in darker side is that one sphinx you have to go out of your way to find and even that the only reason you'll want to do so is to hear its dialogue which imo was worth it cause its kind of wholesome but in terms of exploration that's pretty much it. But the darker side is not supposed to be a exploration kingdom sure you could make the argument that this game is meant to be exploration and if they kept that level of difficulty but put it into a kingdom that you could explore it would be a perfect finish for the game but i feel like that's what the dark side is supposed to be. The hardest kingdom you can actually explore however in order to truly challenge the player one final time you have to sacrifice that freedom to explore and that's why we have the darker side.
I HATE the Madame brutale and the Bowser rematches. Mario in them sometimes takes a mind of his own and just straight up walks into the bullets. That combined with my camera randomly moving makes them a nightmare
So, about the whole:''Odyssey has(mostly)more creative worlds than Mario usually does''. That is true...if you're talking about the 2d games. However, looking at the 3d games, all of them except maybe 3d land have some interesting takes on the various typical archetypes of the mario serie while also having several unique ones. This characteristic doesn't make odyssey special, it makes it equal to it's predecessors.
Cloud and Snow Kingdom Are my favourite kingdoms because they’re so peaceful and quiet haha I even saved Snow Kingdom’s ambiance in my playlist. Plus I already like snow and coldness. So it’s not difficult to impress me.
A thing not mentioned about Wooded Kingdom is its Balloon World... It's probably my favourite because of the fact that people can't hide balloons very well there if they just brush on it and leave it be... unless you practice it a lot. Hide your balloons well, people!
fun fact:When I first found the chest moon, I didn’t take the regular path and wondered what was on the bridge so instead of seeing if there was a way up that was easier than jumping off the ice cream cart, and when I went backwards through it only then I noticed, THE FREAKING YELLOW POLE IN A WHITE AND BROWN AREA
How I would fix the snow kingdom 1. Add a few houses to the outside or maybe have a little town on a really tall ice pillar so we could have a fun falling thing 2. Take down a few of the giant ice walls and replace them with a frozen sea and little beach for maybe a extra moon or another race track 3. ADD A MAP TO SHIVERA TOWN I DON’T CARE IF ITS A SUB AREA ADD A MAP TOO IT 4. Have like 2 required sub areas ( The one with rango and the ice muncher one) and have 2 parts of the map that you will have to find That’s how I would fix it

We can agree that it's the worst non-mini kingdom, but we can also agree that the Shiverians are the best npcs
My personal problem with this kingdom is probably mostly that it's less of an open-worlded explorable kingdom, it's more like an obstacle course.
You- you can’t compare a 2D Mario game to a 3D one, many 3D Mario games have unique styles, super Mario galaxy being the best example; but SM3DW also does some cool stuff
How to fix Snow Kingdom:
1. adding a boss fight in order to reach the first story moon
2. being able to explore the race area
I remember voting with the poll for this and I'm glad it came out
Personally I think that small icy isolated atmosphere is exactly what they wanted
It plays to the theme of the level
I think it wants you to feel isolated
With the damn near deadly cold water constantly placed around the level
The shivering airy surface
If it had a chilling ambience it would be perfect
I get that it runs against the theme of the rest of the game but imo it serves to make it more unique
I think the way to fix it would be to make the raised platforms a lot bigger with more to explore
And to make parts of the water much deeper with fun moons to try to race to
Otherwise if it did how you wanted I think it would end up feeling like "just like these levels" in comparison to the rest of Odyssey imo
So for me personally Cap Kingdom is the most mediocre
It literally just does its job
It doesnt break the mold
It's not too big
It's not got too much to explore
It's just "okay"

One thing I would add is a fun unique ice boss, maybe the icicle golem from mario rabbids could be a great thing to add
