Who would’ve thought that one tiny update would enrage many people.

why is doug bowser a bad person?

worked at EA

oh no

 

[Abecero]

Game is already a downgrade from MK8, with pointless fluff added onto it and overall design just being worse in general.
Absolutely not worth the 500+ moolah you need to shell out to have the "honor" to play it.

Continuously helms a lot of vicious needless legal attacks on harmless fan projects

Refuses to credit anyone who worked on past games or music in newer games/media

Fired and blacklisted an employee for bringing up the idea of a union to him because in his words it "made him sad". Said union was because under his watch NOA employees were working in such bad conditions that literal moldy garbage from the 90's and more was just laying around the space

Very likely played an integral part in the 80% games thing

Bro is just a soulless corporate robot who exists for nothing but to make money no matter the cost and I'm sick of Nintendo fans giving him a free pass just because he has Bowser as his last name and shook hands with Reggie.

People don't seem to understand that the "Intermission tracks" are basically drag stips and Mario Kart is known for its 3 lap courses with different shortcuts and drift points. People have every right to be upset since the game at is core is a course racing game. The intermission tracks are dull and uneventful, its a good reason why people will complain about them. I played Super Mario Kart World and those tracks are boring asf.
Ill be upset too if the only way to play 3 lap courses was via random and now that Nintendo removed the chance of having a 100% to 24% the game isnt worth playing online for a small chance of fun. Just stick with single player or 8 Deluxe at this point.
TLDR. OP hating on people who have to right to complain about a feature in a game. He probably doesnt own the game either or played it

Thank you for talking sense.

The boring-ass intermission tracks and open world gimmick are exactly why I passed on this game despite loving the IP. I play MK to play an arcade circuit racer, not whatever insipid, overpriced crap Nintendo knows its ravenous fanboys will swallow down. The criticism is warranted and OP is going to have to deal.

On the other hand, anyone who bought this game and thought Nintendo wasn't going to do something stupid down the line needs the reality check.

Again, the criticism feels very nitpicky and trivial. I don’t even mind the intermission tracks. It doesn’t even look like that big of a change to me. This feels like another excuse to hate Nintendo. Just like when they changed DK design and Peach’s face, some people flipped the fuck out. MK8D randomly changes the engine class during online matches and nobody cared about that. You may think I’m defending Nintendo, but I’m not. I just think this isn’t anything worth getting mad over. To me, this is a very small change. It’s not like they completely take away the ability to select courses.

 

[Bonkers225]

Dude's last name is actually Bowser? That's freaking hilarious.

 

[Rocket2049]

honestly i don't mind the intermission tracks since the game only has like 16 full tracks anyways, compared to MK8s 48 (+48 dlc pass so NINETY SIX the game was massive)
that's not even counting modding, where you can get MK wii with every track from SNES to 8DX, including arcade and mobile

Just another excuse LOL. Ironic.
Defending a billion dollar company on the grounds of "well it doesn't seem like that big of an issue to me personally so I won't bother listening to your criticisms". People are allowed to (and should) expect efforts to be made to increase the quality of their games not an effort to increase the sales of those games. If your response to every bit of valid criticism is just "eh nitpicking" then what do you really think you can offer to the conversation?

Guy literally said he plays the game and it's fluff and annoying - bruh take the word of people playing the game
