Played for a bit and already the music is much more memorable to me than 3D world. This game screams banjo Kazooie mixed with Mario 64 to me. It's amazing
I‘ve now played roughly three hours of the game and have now made it from the Lake to the Wooden Kingdom. So far, it checks every mark I‘ve had on my expectations board. If I had to criticize one thing, and mind you this is just personal taste and therefore a nitpick, I dislike how you are a bit guided through the worlds by those lights and your goal, just like in Sunshine, is also shown whenever you land in that kingdom. But unlike Sunshine, this is just a very vague goal and there‘s loads of stuff to explore and find along and off the beaten path.
So far, I‘d say this is my Top 2 game of this year with the absolutely perfect Persona 5 securing itself the GOTY spot.
@Inertiacreep Which guy? Me? If so, I have no idea what is spoilery about the little nitpick. Fine, I did name-drop two kingdoms but honestly, both were mentioned in the trailers. I wouldn‘t consider anything mentioned in trailers a spoiler but fine, I‘ll use spoiler tags whenever I just think about Odyssey.

@Operative2-0 The joke was one post, two replies, and a follow-up post. Which is now shorter than the current debate about "whether the joke went on too long". I'd insert the obligatory 'no fun allowed' image, but it doesn't seem worth the effort.
Anyway, speaking of fun, this game is... probably fun, but I wouldn't know because it's still not here yet! It's 'out for delivery' so I'm listening out for the doorbell like a hawk.
My Red Joy-Cons have been dispatched too, although they're due to arrive on Nov 1st so a little more patience is needed.
@GoldenGamer88 well i did not read your post but it sounded like you were basically telling the whole beginning of the game.. "lvl 1 is this kingdom, lvl 2 is this kingdom, lvl 3 is this kingdom" etc
finally downloading now, will get to play in like 30-40 mins.
@Inertiacreep Well, if you‘re that picky about spoilers, I‘ll use spoiler tags for anything I say in this thread from now on. Also the two Kingdoms are not the first two you visit. Just sayin.
