Mario Land 3: Wario Land - FINAL - Dinar

[Paragraph]

wall of text

I feel like that doesn't really work in Wario Land as you're somewhat encouraged to get all the treasures.

Sure you are, but WHEN? You wouldn't even know if a stage has a treasure immediately upon playing it unless you see the key/lock. You might also run out of time while trying to find either part and just finish the level quickly, then come back later. And to get the treasure, you have to replay and finish the entire stage anyway, right?

Speaking of issues with design in Wario Land, all of Sherbert Land's levels becoming locked off after beating it, making 100% completion impossible if you didnt get the treasures before doing so is an abomination of game design

[Kilgamayan]

Uh, do you have a weird build of the game or something? I just checked my most recent Best Ending playthrough and was able to enter Sherbet Land and its levels just fine.

Even with that specific mindet, though, it's a bit lazy, anyway.

It's still a valid decision in the end, as

only Sherbet Island's treasures and one odd one in Stove Canyon are behind secondary exits. In fact there are only five stages with secondary exits to begin with! Rice Beach 3 (course 3), Mount Teapot 2 (course 8), the two down the middle in Sherbet Island (courses 15 and 16), and Stove Canyon 4 (course 24)

Could it be because you can't go to Sherbert Land from the main map and have to walk through the Mt. Teapot submap to get there?

jfc take a day off and recover no being sick on computers allowed

I'm picturing a chain smoking noirish private detective type. Either that or Hunter S. Thompson.

This'll probably fall on deaf ears, but when your throat is hurting, one of the worst things you can do is talk. It needs rest like you do. If you're having fun playing, that's one thing, but it's going to take longer to recover if you don't rest up. I'd rather hear you when you're back in good health, man!

[AlchemistHohenheim]

Yeah, uh, I really don't think many people would mind if you took a few days off from LPing entirely to actually recover from your sickness, raocow.

Or at least, like, cut it down to just Wario Land for a while and put Aquaria/Mega Man on hiatus for a little bit.

[raocow]

for the record, it's the thread's new title that pushed me over to taking a sick day

[Kilgamayan]

Whatever it takes, as long as you do it \o/

Well good. I was about to come in here and bark the same orders at you.

[Dragon Fogel]

Hope you feel better soon.

[Sebby19]

Maybe this calls for a new stuffed animal adventure? It can be silent, we won't mind!

[YelseyKing]

You deserve a sick day every now and then, too, raocow. Get well soon, man.

[Dr. Mechano]

Eugh, get well soon, raocow. Get some rest.

And yeah, echoing what others have said, I love the Wario Land series but feel like parts of this game were a bit obtuse. The invisible door in Mt. Teapot is a particularly egregious bit of game design, and I'm not sure how someone new to the game is supposed to know to just randomly press up on that exact tile.

[Leet]

Well I mean, that's why it's a secret

[Dr. Mechano]

Well sure, I get that, but... I feel like major completionist collectibles, even if they're hidden, shouldn't be hidden without any conveyance at all.

[Bean]

Well, I guess the hint is that the block stands out. I do agree that an invisible door makes no sense with just the one block. Maybe if it were two blocks that were stacked, it wouldn't come off as so obtuse, huh?

[MonkeyShrapnel]

Well, I guess the hint is that the block stands out. I do agree that an invisible door makes no sense with just the one block. Maybe if it were two blocks that were stacked, it wouldn't come off as so obtuse, huh?

Maybe it's just me, but as soon as I saw that single block, I immediately thought something was off,
but that might be because I'm used to the DKC 2 style of hiding stuff with single items in odd locations.

That's... Probably it.

[Kilgamayan]

You killed the axe! \o/

Don't worry, it'll come back in the 3rd game.
