Playing SMB3 for 1st time and kinda hating it
azeke:
I can deal with Lost Levels and Super Meat Boy just fine. I'm okay at platforming, i guess. But this game...
SMB3 just loves to throw at least five enemies at the same time and it just breaks me. Earlier this night i played underwater level and at one time there were two small green fishes, one big red fish, two jellyfishes each one with four small jellyfishbabies -- all coming to get me. Oh and the level autoscrolled too. It was more closer to horizontal shmup on twitch difficulty than Mario game.
I appreciate how it originated so many things for the series and how imaginative every single level is. But i am not really having fun. Even the controls feel weird to me -- it's like i'm on ice at all times and all jumps feel too high (sounds stupid i know, but that's how i feel).
Also half of the things in game just don't make sense to me, level design wise. Like why some levels end with a black screen and others have additional hills? Lots of levels have areas that are just there. There is nothing in it. Some levels i blast through within 20 seconds and some are too hard for me.
Maybe i'm doing something wrong. Maybe it's DS Lite (i'm playing GBA version) and i should play it on a big screen.
Some levels i couldn't even understand where am i supposed to go. I went everywhere and i can't find an exit. Previous levels where i had that i just skipped, but now it's a castle (on world 7) and i have to beat it somehow to advance through the map.
Yoshi's Island had similar levels with keys and doors, but there it was laid out more clear. Here i just don't get it.
TLDR: i am stuck at first castle in world 7, pls halp.

I've got nothing, man. I feel sorry for you.
It's up there with Super Metroid and Chrono Trigger as one of the best games ever made.

I'd love to be able to contribute more, but I'm kind of speechless.
SMB3 was the first game I ever played. I was 4. It was, and remains, amazing. Without a doubt the best Mario game ever made.
I respect your opinion, I just don't understand it. Ha.
