    map destruction skin thrown on top

    That doesn’t make sense if you think about it for a second. The entire game is designed around the destructible environments. One of the reasons it’s so good is that they use the interior of the landscape. And the gameplay loop is absolutely different.

    But Nintendo also gets credit for Super Mario Galaxy; you’re right about that.

      It’s a meaningful difference, but it’s still, at its core, “go into level, do little challenges to find a thing and progress the story”, except this time it’s banana instead of star.

        Next you’ll tell me they both have jumping!

        I mean that’s all really high level stuff.

          I’m not saying you can’t enjoy the game but it’s not that different from Super Mario Odyssey. Its from the same development team, and you can clearly see they have a certain design that works.
