      I think they want to do a Deluxe edition of Galaxy 2 and actually improve it more than Galaxy, Sunshine and 64. Maybe even put it in full 1080p or even 4k if that switch pro rumor is true. Imagine Galaxy 2 in 4k HDR, that would be so cool! But if they want to charge 60 they better add more content or do significant tweaks to the game

      I play Galaxy to have a magical experience through my emotions. I play Galaxy 2 to have an exciting experience from fun gameplay.
      But I enjoy gameplay better when there is more atmosphere.
      So galaxy ramps up the gameplay by having a better atmosphere. Even though Galaxy 2 has much better gameplay, it doesn't have much of an atmosphere to resonate as much with me.
      Galaxy was orchestral and mystical.
      Galaxy 2 was upbeat and jazzy, which evokes a completely different feeling.
      Basically what I am saying is that I love both of the games but each game is lacking in a different department for me.

      Since Nitro mentioned it first, I actually DON'T want to see Odyssey 2 (GASP!). I mean, I wouldn't be upset if it happened, but rather than follow up the original with something similar, I'd rather see Galaxy 3, or maybe even 3D World 2. The reason is while I enjoy Odyssey a lot, it looses the feel of a platformed as it focuses more on exploration and collecting. I think it would be nice to get another Mario on Switch that goes back to that and feels totally separate from Odyssey. Although I rarely have a second player available, I thought 3D World was great for multiplayer.

    Ultimately, I've always personally thought that Galaxy 1 had the better atmosphere, while Galaxy 2 had the better gameplay. Strictly as a game, I agree with you, Galaxy 2 does so much better... but I dunno, I feel like something really important was lost when they dropped the beautiful atmosphere of Galaxy 1.
    ...for the record, the potential space puns with "atmosphere" was completely unintentional when I wrote this.

    • @remx4341
      @remx4341 7 лет назад +14

      I kind of disagree with the whole "atmosphere" thing. I think that there are several points in 2 with a really good atmosphere, like Slimy Spring Galaxy and the one water world I forget the name of both have a really serene, calming atmosphere. Maybe it's just because of the music, which is _really good_ (I would say even better than Space Junk, which is saying a lot!) but yeah, that's just my two cents on the subject.

    • @ACYosh
      @ACYosh 6 лет назад +28

      I agree that something was lost when transitioning from galaxy 1 to galaxy 2. But I don’t think it’s the atmosphere since it’s still crazy, wacky and memorable worlds and music. Maybe the magic and wonder of galaxy 1 was lost. However I feel the reason the games are the same but so different is 100% because of the level design. No game I can think of can even compare with galaxy 2s level design. Galaxy 1 relied on the gravity mechanic too much where as galaxy 2 relied on extremely innovative ideas like the flip switches and beat blocks and the 2d sections as well, galaxy 2 used gravity to either hide some little secret(pipe on the underside of planets) or to benifit the level design like in tall trunk galaxy.

  • @Some-guy-on-the-internet

    Something else I noticed is that the camera is much better in Galaxy 2. In Galaxy, the camera could easily get the wrong angle and get blocked by the level. In Galaxy 2, the camera has much better angles and it doesn't let objects block your view.

  • @zippercreature
    @zippercreature 7 лет назад +63

    I do have one complaint about Galaxy 2, one that I'm surprised wasn't brought up in this video, but the final fight with Bowser was extremely underwhelming. I know Galaxy 1's fight had its own issues, but at least that one had some difficulties attached to it, Galaxy 2's fight was way too easy. The first half of the fight was pretty good, but the second half was just way too easy since it made you do the same thing over and over again with no change added to it. It's a terrible final boss fight overall, but it does not retract from the overall great quality Galaxy 2 still holds.

    • @NitroRad

    For me, Super Mario Galaxy 2 is the best game in the series solely for the stage variety. While it may not control as tightly as Mario Odyssey, it more than makes up for it by having such memorable levels. The Oasis section at the end of Slimy Spring is one of the most beautiful looking places I've seen in a video game, not only for the incredible looking sunset, but for how much it contrasts from the dark and gloomy interior of the level you played before.
    If Galaxy 2 got a virtual console release/HD remaster on the Switch, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. Or hell, give me Mario Galaxy 3.

    @nice-guyhunter4013 7 лет назад +43

    I think what makes me like the first one way more is like you said, the story. You can have cool ideas but if I don't care about the story it won't matter. Galaxy one always sticks with me because there was some weight and tension to getting to Bowser. Something I haven't ever felt in any other Mario game. Good concepts for a Galaxy don't factor to the memorability to me because it didn't matter as much. I've always appreciated a good story in my games which is probably why Galaxy 2 never struck me as hard. And because of the weaker story I couldn't help but feel it was just an expansion of the first with not much else to differentiate it. I know Zelda is completely different, but Majora's Mask really did prove you could do a whole lot different with the same engine. Its not like I need a good story in a Mario game but having one really helped. All of that being said, its still a pretty fun game besides the Green Stars. But it may very well be my least favorite 3-D Mario game not counting 3-D Land and World. Still good hearing your opinion. I always love your videos.

    Love to hear such positivity about a game that is one of the first videogames I really got into! I played this game over the course of years with my younger sister, starting when we were young kids and not very good at video games (not that I'm that much better now) and it was a fun experience to come back to this game when we both happened to have free time and try a stage or two over and over again. It really is a fun game, and as we got older we were able to handle the more challenging aspects. We finally finished the main story last year but never really got around to the post game content, especially as we've been enjoying Odyssey.

      Story? Who cares. It’s no mass effect. It’s still a mediocre story compared to actual story driven games. Mario isn’t defined by story.
      Atmosphere? Sure. You got me there but that’s not enough to declare a game better.
      Ending? In terms of story, yes. Galaxy 1 definitely had an edge due to how much more cinematic and climatic it was. But still. If you’re talking about the final boss, that’s a different story. No pun intended. Both were disappointing but I thought galaxy 1 took the cake for disappointment there. At least galaxy 2 had a unique phase. Galaxy 1 was the exact same ‘make bowser pound the blue thing’ except give him a sonic spin dash.

    • @MyNameIsMir
      @MyNameIsMir 7 лет назад +14

      Even the music is way better in Galaxy 1. It makes you feel wayyy more threatened by that gigantic robot. The moment you get on one of his leg you get the police siren sound effect, bullet bills come at you, the machine is actually trying to defend itself.
      They could've probably expanded on this idea, maybe by making it harder for you to climb on it as the fight goes on or making it so the boss would actually try to kill you and not wander aimlessly...
      The galaxy 2 equivalent of that boss (Digga Leg) is very subpar. The only attack he has is sending mini drills at you (which, not only are easily killed by you, most of the time they will just get crushed by the boss itself), the music, while awesome, doesn't create any tention, it take 3 hits to kill and the only thing that makes this fight a boss fight is the fact that it's pretty frustrating to get to his weak point in the third stage.

    Yeah, the magic feeling of Galaxy 1 is gone which is why I prefer 1 over 2... that's a dumb reason, I know but I'm sick of Mario nostalgia so anything even close resembling that isn't... nice. Which is a little silly sounding, considering it *is* Mario. But I like experimental stuff with Mario more than standard Mario. Mostly because Nintendo has milked Mario nostalgia for so long now...
    But the level design in Galaxy 2's great, I agree.
    Oh! If you already 100%-ed 3D Land... try to get all 5 stars WITH sparkles on your savefile. That's something that really bugs me about 3D Land's sparkle stars on the save file. You have to never die more than 5-times in a level. If you do, you'll permanently lose the chance to get sparkles on your savefile after the game automatically saved. That's something 3D World fixed. And no, sparkles don't do anything besides sparkling.
    But I hope you'll have fun with 3D Land! It's my 2nd favorite Mario game, right below Galaxy 1. The way the level design works in that game is very rhythmic, tight and really, really fun! Oh, and the streetpass sharing in 3D Land is simple but amazing.
