Odyssey is legit my all time favorite video game, so yeah, I think it’s neat.
It’s the Mario I’ve dreamed of my whole life. It captures a sense of wonder and adventure no other game ever has for me, and there are times when I go back and listen to Cascade Kingdom’s theme, I legit get close to crying. It’s not even all that old and it feels like it’s something from so long ago at the same time. Maybe it’s because I associate it with calmer times, but all in all, the game is special to me, and always will be.
I appreciate the heck out of it and the wonderful people who brought it to me. It’s one of my core inspirations for my own art. What is fun? What captures that childlike wonder, that sense of exploration and discovery? Mario Odyssey, that’s what.
