Aside from having some of the best music in the game, does anybody actually enjoy this place?

It’s a small, Nintendo, collectathon level, anon. Don’t be autistic.

I hated the eel shit where you have to bait the ai.

>Dire, Dire Docks
that's Jolly Roger Bay.
Also, I like it, dunno why people hate the water levels in SM64, you can swim pretty fast once you get the rhythm of pressing a, the worlds aren't that huge and the stars are fun to get.

Yeah, it's cool to mess about a the surface than gradually go deeper down under water and into the cave, hearing the music develop as you go.

Yeah, every area in the game is excellent.

I really love the foggy version that. Can only be seen once per save file

Nah, but it's fun to watch speed runners here. There are some insane jumps/routes.

I don't not enjoy it, but it's not one of my favorite courses. It's pretty short, not a whole lot to do other than swim.

mashing A is slower than pressing the A button in a certain rhythm.

Least favorite level? Mine's definitely Wet Dry World
It just come off as really boring for me. Really, its the only the bad level in the game for me.

Mines rainbow ride, soley due to the 100 coins. I spent a solid two days trying to get that shit on my first playthrough with several major chokes, I almost broke a controller during it.

>> No.5723108

>>5722707
My issue with rainbow ride is there are a few segments where you can’t acrobat your way through quickly. There are just some parts you need to wait on the carpet, and that’s not fun.

>> No.5723568

>>5723108
I have that issue as well, but the 100 coins just put it over the edge and became a rage inducer for me.

Well, I use to just let Mario idle there and let the music relax me and I would fall asleep as Mario also did the same. This shit use to be my source of "ASMR" before ASMR was even a thing on the internet.

Anyone else was terrified by the giant hole underwater in Dire Dire Docks, that sucks you out of the level if you get too close? For some reason as a kid that shit always made me feel uneasy. Always made sure to stay the fuck away from it.

Loved it. One of the most nostalgic levels. Anyone think that the game should have had many more of those bowser stages though and applied as normal stages? Those had some of the best platforming of the game yet it was only relegated to a few bowser levels.

I hated TTC on my first playthrough and it makes me wonder if they made the levels without any order in mind and then decided how to order them after. The level is really not so bad once you know what you're doing, but the camera does you absolutely no favors and it makes playing through it your first time a nightmare.

I dunno, but what he did say doesn't make any sense, so that's all I got. Maybe he didn't intend to put anything in between coin and mission.
