    mario kart tour becomes so much better when you look at it like a score attack game, rather than a racing game. i believe this game truly shines when you take advantage of the combo system by doing drifts, getting frenzies, and using items strategically. it definitely starts off slow at first, but when you build up a collection of high leveled kart parts and characters, it becomes way easier to keep and start combos, along with insane possibilities for frenzies, leading to some of the most addicting gameplay you can find out of a mobile game when you hit a score of like 30k or more. theres still a dedicated community for this game online and in-game even after content updates stopped and i wish more people would give it a chance

      @nathanalexandre137 4 месяца назад +5

      that's exactly it! it is so good to use items in a strategic way while taking an optimal path around the track, taking advantage at each drift and trick to build a long, and sometimes non-stop, combo. the ranked is also something that takes the most of it, making you playing it again and again to get the perfect run combo-wise and specially frenzy-wise, making you needing to get one coin frenzy/coinbox + another good one or even 2 coin frenzies (or even more if you're in a REALLY high tier), just so you can reach 1st to get all the prizes and win other real life players. and that is something that worked better with the gacha mechanic, imo. I'm a F2Player so I had to get good scores in order to get more rubies to pull more pipes or sometimes even emptying them (most of the times just to get the things I likes instead of the competitive better ones lol). I still however think that the removal of the gacha mechanic was the right step, but I think the ranked suffered a bit from it.

You're only getting it in mid positions, but only when the match has already been running for a bit, so much so that you'd be better off being in 1st place already (to get a coin frenzy or coin box frenzy). And you'll get a okay-ish amount of points and nice combo building, not something underwhelming but not really good too (and to get more points/actions you'll need to be futher back too...). Its frenzy sucks ass tho lol

    3:38 For those interested, Dragalia Lost has 2 revival projects being done, and all you need is a Dragalia apk to get started. All the assets from the latest version of the game, along with many of the older patches, have been preserved in a custom CDN made by the teams behind the two projects. With the revival projects, they also removed the emulator check from the game, so Dragalia is now also playable on Bluestacks.

    I actually am a big mario kart tour player. I started playing in early 2020, before actual multiplayer was open to everyone (it was in beta for gold pass subscribers), and I have missed very little days since then. Yes, you heard me right, I've played the game almost every single day for 4 years straight. During those 4 years, I watched as the game evolved from a crappy game, to an actually good game. I remember back then the game was actually not the best, it was not very easy to get rubies, much less good drivers / karts / gliders, but it was fine. It was actually pretty fun watching the new trailer for each tour just to see what new things got added. Over time it actually got much much better. It got way easier to get rubies for free (in fact I get around 100 each tour), the controls got better, they added landscape mode to the game, but only in races, not the menus, and eventually removed the gatcha pipes from the game, or at least the main pipes. Yeah, there's still some gatcha pipes, but those pipes are completely free. The event token pipe that you use event tokens to fire the pipe (which you get during races, they're the green coins), the multiplayer pipe, which you earn fires from playing multiplayer, and some pipes as rewards for getting stars. Over the years, I've actually collected a massive collection of drivers, all without paying money. Ok, that's a lie, I did get the gold pass a couple times, but that was only the free trial (twice, somehow), and bought with gift card money. Other than that, I'm completely free to play. Oh, and contrary to what scott was saying, you do actually need skill in mario kart tour, and getting first does matter. You see, you earn points in the courses by doing pretty much any action, and you get more points by finishing first. It is hard to get a good amount of points without actdoing anything.
    Oh yeah, I'm also a mario kart tour dumper, as in, I dump the game files for others to use (such as extracting the music).
    I actually kind of tasked myself to play mkt every day until the game shuts down.

    The five star system was really annoying for a WHILE because it required just way too many points and they sometimes felt impossible to achieve. And the cart parts gave point multipliers and some other bonuses which seem nessesary to get five stars. They since lowered the number of points tho (now it's too easy though...)

    One of the strongest features that gets overlooked a lot I feel is the Weekly Ranking competition. You have to try and get the highest combined score on 3 tracks against 20 other real people at the same skill level as you. If you get a better score, you get more rewards and go to a higher skill level, if you get less, you get fewer rewards and level down. And sure you can pay to get rubies to do better at this, but it’s completely possible to do all of it with just your own skill and no paying, and you get rewarded with characters that would have cost money otherwise.

    Great to see someone with influence giving this game a chance. Tour IS a great Mario Kart game, and there’s a whole community out there like myself who has been deep into it for 4 years. It involves a ton of strategy and and of course involves skill, you just have to think of it in a different way.

      Guys, Scott knows Piranha Plant Cove is a new course. If you rewatch that part again you'll see he says along the lines of "new courses that aren't cities and remastered courses that haven't been remastered before" and then uses Sunset Wilds and Piranha Plant Cove as examples. He just said them in the wrong order.

    Scott didn’t even mention the Mii suits. They are by far the best part of the game. Letting you play as yourself is boring in some other games, but all your Mii suits stack +10 points. They also have really good designs. If you sign on right now, you’ll see the Para-Biddybud Mii suit, which looks awesome.

    • @theawesomeali8834
      @theawesomeali8834 5 месяцев назад +3

      Mii Suits were such a useless and greedy addition lol, they aren’t even worth the expensive amount of rubies. Don’t even get me started with the dogshit mii racing suit bots that are incredibly more annoying than a regular character. I’ve invested my resources in more optimal characters and the results were very successful.

    • @snickerbobble
      @snickerbobble 5 месяцев назад

      @@theawesomeali8834 If you take them at face value they seem useless, but they're super valuable in the high tiers, especially if you have most or all of them. Pretty much every mii suit can score higher than non-mii plus skills like coin box and boomerang, and the miis who do have plus skills can achieve crazy high scores.
      The +10 BP do a lot more than add just 10 points. A level 6 triple cap non-mii gets 72 more points per action, but if you have all miis, a mii of same level and cap gets 104 more points per action. That's 32 more points per action over the non-mii, and you get a bigger score boost when you finish a race as well. You can score like 25% higher with a mii. CB and Boomerang miis are monsters. Some people have hit 100,000+ on Cookie Land with gold mii. I don't think I've seen a non-mii hit 80k.

    I’ve been playing this game since the Amsterdam Tour in 2022 and once they removed the pipe system for the shop system I even got the gold pass and it’s been so fun! $60 a year is fine for me when the game still changes every 2 weeks (1 if you care about ranked cups).
    Happy to see you shouting out how it’s changed, sucks it got better only after the game stopped introducing new content.

  • @Pitrek1113
    @Pitrek1113 5 месяцев назад +4

    Most people don't know, that there's more in Tour than just mindless racing. There's always a strategy when it comes to resources. Sure, you can just buy and upgrade the most stuff. But the catch is, which item will get you the most coverage or is better suited for certain tracks. Also there's some skill (and rng) involved too. Like some driver items (Lucky Seven, Giant Banana) require different strategies. Wanna risk 2nd or 3rd place to get more combo actions or get lower score but getting the 1st place?
    The most fun in this is reaching higher scores (especially in ranked) without spending much on the upgrades.
    Kinda sad that most people don't consider it as the ninth mainline entry (aka MK9) only because it is on mobile. But there's so much potential in the future entries when it comes to things introduced in Tour like different track variants. Heck, even in the Booster Course Pass they created dynamic lap changed mainly for the Tour tracks.
