My other grip with the MK8DX Booster Pass is that there is NO Super Mario Odyssey inspired tracks, characters, or karts!

There should be a track based on every kingdom, there should be kart bodies based on the Odyssey, Jaxi, Mechawiggler, and Sherm. They should let me play as Cappy, Glydon, a New Donker, one of those snail guys, a Tostarenans, Talkatoo, one of the fork men, one of the robots from the wooded kingdom, a Shiverian, a Pokio, an Uproot, a Tropical Wiggler. They should let me play as the little UFO that looks like Torkdrift and acts like a bird in the Moon Kingdom.

This is my dream.

Super Mario Odyssey (2017) Review

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I wrote this review in January of 2023. But it's a good starter to put out here!

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Just finished the main game of SMO (I still have the challenges and all the different moons available after you finish the game for the first time.) It’s a game I am absolutely conflicted about. So I have to break my review into sub-points.

1) Story

Honestly the story of SMO is probably my most favourite one from a Mario game. I still love Sunshine to the bottom of my heart, but this story is just so clever and funny.

Basically, princess Peach has been kidnapped again and you have to save her. But this time, you have to save her from a wedding with Bowser. And that’s genius.

Also, I love how the story progresses with Bowser going through different kingdoms in search of the wedding necessities, like getting a cake, getting a soup, a bouquet of flowers etc. Basically you are tailing him through his wedding preparations and it’s honestly so clever and funny that I can’t but love this part.|| Not to mention that at the end *(Spoiler for the absolute finale, but like... it's a game from 2017)* You interrupt the wedding he has with Peach on the moon and you have to beat Bowser, you both fight in those fancy white wedding suits which just makes the fight fancy as hell and it ends with the best possible joke of Peach just friendzoning both of them when they are absolutely annoying with fighting over her.

The whole ending of the game is story-wise an absolute masterpiece and I was laughing on the absurdity and pure comedy of it the whole time.

2) Gameplay

Here my first gripes comes tho. As many stated, Mario Odyssey has absolutely insane level of movement. The amount of tricks Mario can perform is stunning. BUT. Together with that comes quite a steep learning curve to know all of it.

Most of the stuff is really needed just if you want to 100% the game or if you are a speedrunner, but it’s still something that is quite delicate and precise if you want to learn it and I don’t know how to feel about it. While playing the game, you are often restricted from using those fancy tricks as you need to use the captures – new mechanic of SMO, where you throw your companion Cappy onto something, and you can control it – and those captures have their own unique moves. While it can be fun to play as bullet bill to smash through some walls, or to play as a hammer brother who instead of hammers now throws pans to get through blocks of cheese, it can get quite annoying in the later parts as those captures don’t have as precise movement as Mario.

A fine addition to the gameplay are 2D challenges. Often you can find a pixelated green tube in the world, which transports you to a classic Mario 2D world where you have to complete some challenge to get a moon. It’s fun most of the times as those levels are unique and often they are integrated in the world itself. (For example rocks fall from the wall and reveal the level being hidden on a side of the cliff you were parkouring around) It’s also a fun break from the chaotic precision of the 3D world you play in. The level design compliments this with presenting you with challenges to use the whole potential of Cappy. I can’t say something would fall flat here, but honestly thanks to the captures, even the fun sandbox adventure that Mario Odyssey is can be **EXTREMELY** frustrating. And the moments when you enjoy the hell out of it and when you want to rage-quit the game can shift between each other at record speed.

3) Locations

When I bit into the theme of level design, I can get to locations, which is probably where Odyssey shines and falls the most.

Some of the kingdoms are absolutely gorgeous, fun to go through, and they present a fair amount of challenge and chill exploration. While others are the Anor Londo of this game. Bullshit of a level design combined with absolutely awful precision challenges that just makes you want to rip your hair out of your own head.

There are cleverly designed worlds. Each of the kingdom is different, has different enemies, vibe, challenges and all. And basically all of them are a sight to behold. My biggest gripe is tho, that in every kingdom you need to collect a certain amount of moons. And in the WORST KINGDOMS you need the most of them! Why game!? Why do you have to torture us so much!? But the kingdoms that I really hated to the bone were like... three? Other than that they were “okay” at worst. 

Absolute pinnacle of the game is the Metro Kingdom, or as it is called, the DK City.

- I LOVE THAT LOCATION! -

Honestly? Its chaotic and busy as hell as its center of the large city. But damn do the details and usage of different things here help. Question blocks as traffic lights, the jazz music from the street musicians all over, different construction sites, zipping up and down on the skyscrapers. Not to mention that you are introduced to this city when its night, its raining and the city is overrun with enemies. You basically come into fu*kin Gotham city, only to kill the boss and come back into a prosperous colourful Marvel New York. Not to mention the BEST part of the game and probably one of the moments that will get on my “Top moments in videogames” list happens here. Basically you get a quest of finding 4 musicians for the festival. When you do, the festival starts and its absolute masterpiece as you take part in it and it whole takes a place in a 2D level inspired by the OG Donkey Kong arcade. It even ends with the last screen looking like the old level with the pink frames and barells. I love the hell out of it. Not to mention that through all of this you hear the absolute banger of soundtrack that is “Jump Up Superstar” Chills. Literal chills.

4) Bosses

Honestly I really enjoyed like... 2? Maybe 3 of the many bosses in Odyssey. The game pulls a heavy DMC4 on you with repeating bosses. (You fight the Broodals like 2-3 times each and even if they can be fun for the first time each, it gets very quickly annoying and repetitive.)

Pinnacle of boss battles here are probably the ruined dragon, who was fun and I honestly didn’t expect Mario to go fight a fu*kin Darkeater Midir. Shame the rest of Ruined Kingdom is basically just the boss arena and the bridge leading to it. This is the biggest wasted potential of SMO.

The boss of Metro kingdom is also quite good as the way to get to him is extremely fun and the bossfight itself is creative and enjoyable.

But Bowser battles? There are two of them. Both of them same. Both of them quite difficult as he has all kind of random bullshit, that he throws at you. But damn they were fun.

Absolutely frustrating. I wanted to throw the switch away. But I enjoyed the hell out of them.

Also Bowser without the hat, when he has his hair slicked aside?

I simp for that bitch.

He looks absolutely hot in the white suit with his hair like this. More on that later.

5) Audio

I must say that audio of this game is pretty solid.

Both the sound effects and soundtrack are great. I already mention the absolute banger that is Jump up superstar, but every level has this soundtrack that make you vibe to its kingdom and to just get you going. There are a lot of familiar sound effects, the most noteable being when you finish the game, get into the Mushroom Kingdom and you can go through the different challenges to which you have to get in the old-school Mario 64 fashion. Through a painting. It has the visual and sound design of exactly how it is in M64.

So for those who played it it’s a fine ride on the nostalgia wave.

6) Lewd and Waifu potential?

Basically anything here can be lewded. From Yoshi to Goombas. But mind you, most of them are !!!QUESTIONABLE!!! 

You could probably lewd the Broodal girl with fu*kin bombs in her hair, if you are into some bunny furry stuff.  And you could find some acceptable fanarts on the good ol’ R34 as well...

In terms of Waifu aspect... she seems a bit psycho, BUT she’s loyal.

Of course then there is Peach if she gets you going, for my tastes she is a bit too plain and I generally do not like her in any Mario game. (This bit heavily changed in Mario Bros Movie from 2023 tho) In terms of Waifu potential, idk man, if you have a princess, who probably has unlimited resources that she could use for some guards, but she is constantly being “kidnapped” by this big bad boy... she probably does that because it gets her wet.

Great if you are into cuckold since this bi*ch already has her bull that is okay with cucking anyone who would get near Peach. Be it Toad or Mario.

You then got Pauline. The OG Waifu you could say as she is the woman you are saving from Donkey Kong in the old arcade game. Her huge plus are the dress you can see her in this game and the fancy suit she wears as a mayor. Both hot as f*ck.

Waifu aspect? She is a mature woman, which is always a plus. She is a mayor so she has a stable job. She knows how to direct stuff in her life. She is skilled, ambitious and probably a strong leader as people of the DK city love her. She also isn’t just strict, so she knows what fun is and she can sing, which can be a plus to some.

(But no one from Mario franchise can beat Rosaline from Galaxy, so shame)

And of course its the cherry on top.

The criminal mastermind, King Koopa himself, Bowser.

He is just a spiky turtle in other games. But here, dressed in the fancy white suit, he is a proper mafia capo. I love how he is portrayed here. And as I mentioned before. I AM DROOLING over him with his “hair” combed aside. He doesn’t just look like a snack.

He is a full course meal.

The dominant energy that shines from him is immesureable. Christian Grey should learn a thing or two from him. 

7) Summary?

I am still conflicted how I feel about this game.

I would probably give that 7/10

It wasn’t a complete disaster, but there is a lot of frustration for me personally behind this game. There are things thanks to which I can overlook it, as is the fun story, the amazing level design and the soundtrack

I will for sure go back to the game. There is a lot I didn’t yet explored. Maybe I will even give the game a new playthrough in the future, but it couldn’t beat the nostalgia factor of Mario Sunshine so that game still stands tall above Mario Odyssey.

But would I recommend the game?

- Yes.

If you can take the frustration, that game is a solid experience that plays well in handheld and in docked mode. I mostly played it in handheld and I think it’s the perfect title for such play.

How to Grow a Business with Social Media | Liveblack

Whether you’re a marketer or a brand owner, you’re likely spending some time on social media. However, if you don’t use it to know how to grow your business, now is the time to think about it.

Today’s businesses, through social media, have the opportunity to reach millions, if not billions, of consumers who just want to buy stuff, but is that all you have to do? To just be on social media and post for the sake of posting?

The answer is NO. What you need is social media optimization (SMO). This is a digital marketing strategy that you can use to manage your company’s message and online presence. SMO can increase your product or service awareness, connect you with customers, and reduce news, which can create damage to your business.

There are a ton of social media tips for business that you can implement for your business growth, and we are sharing some of them with you as follows:

1. Identify your audience.

This is the most crucial step to take; as this will give you a clear focus as to whom your business should be catering to, and the products that they need.

2. Plan.

If you have a defined direction and plan, you will surely make the most out of your social media presence.

3. Create and post the right content for different social media platforms.

This is because social networks such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, etc., host unique demographics of users.

4. Post consistently.

Consistency in posting is just as important as quality.

5. Engage your followers.

Tweak your content so the audience can participate, and your potential customers will start caring for your brand. Engaging your followers will indicate that your page is relevant and is worth showing to more people.

6. Take advantage of paid ads.

Advertising is the most important thing that social media networks need to exist, develop, and become successful.

7. Make your brand recognizable.

Do this to stand out from the rest and become memorable to consumers and your target audience.

8. Provide lots of values.

Consumers, at least most of them, want to be free to accept advertisements and promotions and buy products. Instead, they prefer to be provided with as much value as possible by gaining new knowledge and engaging in some interesting stuff.

9. Be authentic.

Providing complete transparency will ultimately build trust for your business.

10. Add CTAs (call to action).

Guide your followers to take action. This will bring in new business for you. Some examples of CTAs are “subscribe to our newsletter”, “sign up for a free trial”, or “download my guide”.

Using social media to grow your business is more challenging than it may seem. Take time to implement the above-suggested strategies, and before long, the business will be on its way to making more sales.

For more information about using social media to lead your business to success, please get in touch with Liveblack full stack digital marketing agency offering you our social media marketing services in Ahmedabad. Our team will be happy to hear from you.

The Steam Deck

After preordering Valve's Steam Deck in February I'm happy to finally have one in my hands. A week+ of use has me feeling confident in saying the dream of the device — to create an entry point into PC gaming that rivals the ease of console gaming — has been mostly achieved through a combination of great hardware and software tricks that boggle the mind. There's great writing out there about where the Deck succeeds in this quest, where it fails, and where it manages to exceed expectations, and despite being pretty high on this thing overall I can't help but nod along with some of the more critical takes. If you want to hear a few first-blush thoughts, Stephen and I have a new (maybe unsurprisingly huge) episode of Into the Aether focused on our feelings about the Steam Deck — from how it handles the basics like playing smaller and older indie or AAA titles to some of the newer and beefier titles like Elden Ring. You can listen to it here:

PC Gaming for the Console Crowd

Before recording the episode I set some ground rules for myself, specifically that I could only play things I downloaded from the onboard Steam store in an effort to get a feel for the device as someone who is buying a Deck to experience a taste of what PC gaming has to offer. In that regard, results are mixed but mostly positive. Some handy UI elements indicate what games play seamlessly out of the box, but older or more obscure titles may lack identification entirely. The games you'd expect to work well — those that feel like they were built with consoles in mind and have full native controller support — work well. Games built with PC in mind and require a mouse and keyboard... well that's where things can go off the rails. Titles like the Civilization series use a combination of the touchpads and trigger buttons to simulate pointing and clicking in ways that feel immediately natural and allows for a perfectly playable experience. Others come burdened with small text made for larger hi-res displays and keyboard commands that quickly become tiresome when trying to use the provided on-screen keyboard in the absence of actual hardware.

This valley between what is considered by Valve to be "Verified" and "Playable" is wide, but made manageable by the more genius aspects of Steam's community-focused features. Any game in the library has a handy button with a gamepad icon that will allow users to peruse community-submitted control layouts and sort them by either the amount of upvotes they've received from the rest of the Steam userbase or by the total cumulative hours users have played with each enabled. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion (my muse) was released for PC in 2007 without gamepad support despite simultaneously launching on the Xbox 360, and yet because of the breadth of control inputs available on the Deck and the Community Layouts function, the game can be played without the need to download mods or alter the game files in any way. It's rad.

But even this process raises the biggest question regarding the Steam Deck as a product: Who is this thing for? For those seeking a console-like experience with the benefits of a PC library, the simple act of tinkering with settings to find the right gamepad layout might already be a step too far. And that's before the game has even booted up — there's the entire realm of tweaking graphics settings in-game and enabling the Steam Deck's frame and refresh rate limiters to find the right balance between performance, visuals, and battery life. Even for games like Elden Ring which have been marked as "Verified" by Valve, there's an aspect of getting your hands dirty in menus that might make less technically-minded players uncomfortable and hitting Google more often than they'd like.

The truth is that although I love the Steam Deck so far, I can't recommend it to everybody. I can't yet place it alongside the Nintendo Switch and the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series as though the biggest and best games will run smoothly out-of-the-box on release. I am hopeful that we'll see a "Community Settings" option appear alongside the "Community Gamepad Layouts" one day, or a way for "Verified" games to come downloaded with the best possible Deck-compatible graphics settings and gamepad layouts pre-installed. I'm thankful to sites like ProtonDB and the many many YouTubers endlessly cataloguing which games run well, and how to fix titles should they fall short — but for some consumers, the need to find and peruse those resources at all will be friction enough to bail. As it stands, I can't blanket-recommend a device that comes with a "you're going to need to do a lot of Googling" asterisk.

The Everything Machine

Once we finished recording, my self-imposed rule fell to the wayside. Although I still have a hard time nailing down who the Steam Deck is for, I know without a doubt that it's for me. Here's what I mean:

Although I'm excited about the prospect of playing games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Death Stranding on the go, current AAA releases were never the reason I wanted to get one of these bad boys for myself. Hypothetically if God of War Ragnarök launched on PlayStation and Steam simultaneously, I would not choose to play it on the Deck. Some games deserve the pomp and circumstance of the big screen, of good speakers, and of fidelity without caveats. I'm not about to close my heart to the possibility that some games bridge the gap and become even better when made portable (the Yakuza games come to mind here), but I consider Elden Ring and its ilk to be a nice bonus instead of The Number One Reason to purchase a Deck.

There's a whole world of independent or PC-focused games that exist on storefronts like Steam, Itch.io, GOG and nowhere else that I have dearly missed over the past few years, specifically since switching to MacOS full-time. Sometimes these games come to console, sometimes they don't, but in both cases I consistently feel like I'm missing out on some of the most interesting work being created in the space. For every odd Mac-supported game (which to be fair seems to happen more frequently these days), there are ten others I miss out on until they appear on another platform. Rogue Legacy 2, which entered Early Access in 2020, is the sequel to one of my favorite games of all time and remained PC-only for two years until releasing on Xbox consoles. I spent a majority of those two years kicking myself for not having a way to play it, not being able to watch the progression of development over time during its testing period. I wanted dearly to be an early member of the community, and the Steam Deck will ensure that doesn't happen again.

I've spoken often on and off the show about my love of the emulation handheld market. These tiny devices enable us to revisit games that have been left behind by their developers in a form factor that feels modern and with functionality to match, like the ability to save and load a game wherever and whenever. As time marches on the games being left behind require more power and better hardware to run, and while that means trade-offs like the devices themselves becoming large enough to exceed pocketability, the caveats are worth it for those whose favorite games launched in the PlayStation 2 era and beyond. Besides being great for PC gaming, the Steam Deck is also run via the Linux operating system and is compatible with a plethora of emulators. Not only do I have a deep admiration for the previous generations of consoles gone by and frequently challenge myself to explore more of gaming's history, but I absolutely love tinkering with emulators. What the Deck is already capable of running needs to be seen to be believed.

With these three tenants in mind I've found the Steam Deck to be a resounding success by Valve in terms of providing what I expected and hoped was possible. The more time I've spent playing games and messing around with the many many options available to me, the more I feel like this is close to becoming An Everything Machine. That's not to say it's going to replace anything I currently use, but the flexibility offered branches into spaces I couldn't quite wrap my head around until using it for myself. The more I reach out into what I expect to be the Deck's limitations, I'm surprised at its ability to surprise. One shining feature offered by the Steam Deck is the ability to hold the power button down and shift the device into "desktop mode" — a fully featured PC based on the Linux operating system that makes use of the on-screen keyboard and trackpads to provide a surprising amount of mobility and customization. Taking it a step further, plugging any USB-C dongle with and HDMI port into the Deck allows users to make any external monitor an extra (or the primary) display. Add Bluetooth support to the mix with a wireless mouse and keyboard, and you've turned the Steam Deck from a device running a "desktop mode" into what is just simply a desktop computer. In my testing I've already gotten a ton of mileage out of the mouse and keyboard I have paired to my Mac Mini (the Logitech MX Master and the Keychron K3, both of which support multiple connections simultaneously) alongside a cheap $30 USB-C dongle I bought years ago from VAVA¹. You could, hypothetically, just purchase and use one of these things as your main computer. I absolutely will not do that. But you could, dear reader, and that's wild.

Moving the Steam Deck into desktop mode with this setup also wipes away my concerns about games that don't play well with the hardware's more obvious control schemes. The beauty of the options Valve has provided means UI-intensive strategy games with small text and a bevy of keyboard commands can be played exactly as they were intended. Sure it would be nice to find a community gamepad layout and make these games portable, but in the same way the spectacle of AAA sometimes demands a big screen, some strategy games demand sitting in your desk chair like a troubled lord in a ponderous rabbit hole waiting twenty real minutes before finally reaching towards the mouse to make your next move. Games can be both! And the Steam Deck can do both easily!

And then there's the emulation, which absolutely blows away the many devices I already own specifically for emulation purposes. I won't go too into specifics, but I will add my voice to the choir of people singing the praises of how impressive the Deck handles games from even the more recent generations of consoles. However, I do think it's worth noting that my experience getting to the point where I felt like retro games were working as expected took arguably more effort than many online would have you believe — there's more elbow grease required in almost all of the steps involved than you'll expect from the outset. We are, of course, early in the lifecycle of this product and all of the hiccups I ran into will smooth out over time between simpler custom-built software by community members and forum post after forum post of fixes and solves for those with the search-box acumen required. But as it stands right now, I found a lot of road blocks in my path to what I'd expected... and I consider myself to be pretty good at this stuff. There's bliss on the other end of that journey though. I'm playing games I missed dearly and completely lost access to, I'm playing games I've always been meaning to try, and all of them run about as well or even better than they did on original hardware somehow. And they can be taken on the go!

Playing Wind Waker – the original GameCube one – upscaled with HD textures truly is an amazing experience. The game is so beautiful and, 20 years later, I still love the sailing and soundtrack. And I get to play this on a Steam Deck. Without an official remaster, this will do 😍 pic.twitter.com/PPDkqRmB1V

Verified

So far, for my needs, the Steam Deck is all it's cracked up to be and then some. I appreciate that Valve has been shifting all of their production power towards getting consoles in the hands of players quickly because it means more and more people will have the same transformative experiences I've been having for the past week. And again, I'm only scratching the surface here. The extensibility of this product and the software it's built upon is going to continue to reveal new and exciting use cases over time and I'm deeply excited about the growing possibility-space. Valve themselves have stated they're hard at work on a second generation of this hardware, and while this might launch prospective buyers into the "should I wait for the Steam Deck 2" gravity well, as a current owner it only speaks to the success of what's been accomplished here and a commitment to further updates and development.

I'm amped about the future.

¹ Using a standard USB-C dongle and a Bluetooth controller like something from 8BitDo you can even come close to something resembling the Nintendo Switch's titular magic trick of easily flipping between handheld and docked modes. I'm currently eyeing this surprisingly affordable dock from JSAUX as Valve's official dock is delayed indefinitely as a way to test this out for myself on the big screen, or possibly even for a dedicated streaming setup.
