Super Mario Odyssey (Nintendo Switch, October 27th, 2017) Video Game • Page 9

Getting 100% in this game is going to be somewhat tedious. Just finished up Cap Kingdom yesterday and some of those last couple are VERY well hidden. Might be a bit easier now that I know what Im looking for though

 

The only moon I’ve had to give up on so far was the one where you have to use the flowers to speed through the water. I can’t figure it out because on one of the last legs, the boost from the flower doesn’t last long enough for you to make both jumps. And you can’t make the jump without the boost so I don’t know. Died so many times trying to figure it out and still couldn’t.

 

I didn’t even try on the second round of the picture perfect Mario, the first go around took me long enough. The other one I gave up on was the second round of free running on Cascade Kingdom, can’t figure out how how to beat the golden newcomer.

 

What is crazy about games like this is that there could be a random hidden block ANYWHERE. That makes it hard to get all the moons without looking some up.

 

Yeah I'm definitely not going to go for 100% haha. My plan now that I've beaten the main game is to just go through each kingdom leisurely finding all the moons I can, but I'm not going to stress over it.

 

I actually feel like getting 100% on this game is pretty doable with how many hints you get for moons you’re still missing on each kingdom.

 

Where do you find hints? I'm missing a few from the first Kingdom.

 

I think in that kingdom the bird that gives you hints is on the bridge. There’s also the toad that I think is near the odyssey. But these two characters are found on all of the kingdoms as far as I know. If you use them in addition to the “x” markers on your map, it makes it easier to find each moon.

 

From the hint toad!

 

Definitely makes it easier but still not that easy. Ill probably still do 100% but we'll see how annoying some of the more obscure ones are. Dont want this game to leave a bad taste in my mouth.

 

Haha yeah it’s definitely not easy, but totally doable! I almost said toadally doable, pretty glad I didn’t. Playing this game too much.

 

I'm one moon short in the cap kingdom and it is incredibly bothersome. But I've moved on to cascade for the time being

 

Also I attempted the dark side of the moon once and damn

 

What’s the deal with the moons you can buy from the shops in the post game? I’ve bought 12 in Mushroom Kingdom alone, and it doesn’t seem like they’re going away. Is there a certain number you can buy? Am I buying them instead of collecting them elsewhere? Seems like a lot can be bought in the store.

 

I'm not sure if it takes any away (I would guess no, but the number count on your moons just won't go up even but it will count you completing an activity to get a moon) but you do need to buy a lot of moons in order to get up to the max of 999 for one of the rewards, because there are a fair bit less than that of actual "unique" quest/activity moons.

 

I did it this morning and was so satisfied, though the challenges that opened up after were borderline impossible

In terms of the boss rush, strongly recommend getting good at each and then going to another kingdom and buying the extra three hearts before attempting it. Doubles your room for error

 

Damned if Ruined Kingdom isn’t a dark souls tribute

 

I got 100% in Breath of the Wild, sure as hell going for it in this. I strongly recommend everyone play until at least 500 moons.

 

100% meaning all the shrines? or did you get all the gear upgrades too? cause that was way too grindy for me

definitely see my self getting all the moons in this. I'm always a completionist for collect-a-thons.

 

Or did he get all the koruk seeds...

 

I reached the sand kingdom and came across a room that said I had to feel the rumble to find my prize. I would walk around the spot where the vibration is strongest and nothing happened. Any hints?

 

Ground pound

 

I swear I tried that! Hmm, I'll try a different spot.

 

I never expected Darkeater Midir to appear as a boss in a Mario game

 

lol exactly...that would be insane.
