Anyway, let's agree to disagree. I'm just saying that there's a good reason why the last four games have been adding the most elaborate, unique feeling tracks, like Coconut Mall, Waluigi Pinball, Electrodrome, Music Park etc., yet Rainbow Road, Bowser Castle & Mario Circuit have stayed basically the same design wise since N64. They aren't gonna change that any time soon, it's too iconic.
Also Mario Spinoffs have terrible stories. I'd rather have no story than a bad one.

I mean, content is content. I'd rather have something than nothing.
"Content is content" I wouldn't be too sure about that. Mario Party Top 100 had 100 minigames, and was still unanimously hated. Switch Sports had "content", hated. Golf Super Rush? Hated. Battle League(awesome game)? Hated. I don't think a proper story would've saved any of those games. A polished turd is still a turd, after all.(Well, Battle League was sabotaged by the fake Strikers fans, but again, an argument for another time)

Do you think Mario Kart should have a story mode in the next game?
Nope. Reason? Name 1 racing game with a good story right now
crash team racing
Good, now, how many active players does that game have?
I don't know but there are about 50 players
Yeah, the game is dead. That's my whole point. Now, name 1 modern Mario Kart game that is dead.(By modern, I mean DS-8DX). Tour, technically, sure, but the others are alive and well thanks to CTGP & stuff. Point is, why would they break the formula that is clearly working? Story mode didn't save Tokyo Olympics from being the last one we got. It didn't save Brawl, or Ultimate. The rest of the game saved Ultimate, but the story was easily the worst part of that game. It's not an RPG, it's not an exploration game, it's go-karting, it doesn't need a story.
It definitely did save Brawl, the rest of that game kinda sucked imo
Yeah, it saved Brawl so hard that fans had to make a legendary mod rebalancing the entire game to get people to play it, that was so good that Nintendo actually had to step in and take it down, and led to several other mods following the same naming scheme. Definitely "saved" Brawl.
TLDR, PM saved Brawl. Nothing in Brawl saved Brawl. It was all PM.
Anyway, my point was that no one is buying a racing game for the story, so they don't need to make one.
It could be a 'dumb" history where Bowser overtakes Raimbow Road, and you build your own emgine like in that canceled MK game, they could even reintroduce bossfights!,
The rest would be the notmal tracks and some missions!
What is there to take over on Rainbow Road? All of them except for 1 are literally just roads in space. Not even Monolith Soft could make that story work.
Bruh because it is Bowser, and there are lots of stars on it... and it would be a new Rainbow Road, they could adjust it for that
I don't know dude, Rainbow Road has had a staple design for these last 30 years, same for Mario Circuit & Bowser's Castle. I think you'd get a little world building at best, like in MK8 & DD, but that's about it. Mario spinoffs don't really do story. At least, not good ones. (Looking at you, Super Mario Party). Aces is the only exception.
there is a surprising big handful of things you can do with it staple design, Saturn rings, the Moon, even based of waterfalls, Good Egg galaxy, a space castle, stars, as long there is Rainbow, it can be done.
There is even a custom track for Wii/8DX that fuses Bowser Castle and Rainbow Road flawlessy, all it is needed is creativity.
Bowser's Termination Station is NOT a Rainbow Road. A Rainbow Road is literally that. Rainbow + Road. There's a difference between a Space themed course, and a Rainbow Road. It wouldn't be Rainbow Road at that point, at least to me.

What's the one you're referring to? They're kinda all just roads in space lol
WiiU Rainbow Road is a space station, and Bowser could get up to some devious stuff with that in his posession, like sening rockets to Earth and stuff, you know, causing chaos, but the definition of Rainbow Road has been pretty cut and dry historically. Mario Circuit & Bowser's Castle haven't changed much either, I don't think those tracks have much of a chance for drastic changes like that, not officially anyway.

Can any French person here please explain wtf they were cooking with that opening ceremony? I'm seeing a ton of shit about the Last Supper & the French Revolution on my tl
I didn't even know there was an opening ceremony
It's the Olympics, there's always a ceremony.
Yeah, but I'm not really interested in it.
Yeah, we're all quite familiar with what you're interested in already, aren't we?

Ignoring that mediocre meme for a sec, it'd be awesome to play as Kamek
We need Monokuma for Smash. His final smash could be a unique execution for every character, like for Mario a robotic Bowser and for Inkling idk dunk them in water.
Personally I'd keep Dangancrapa out of Smash, but that's your opinion at the end of the day.
I'd rather have Spyro, Crash, Horizon, GOW, Astral Chain, AC, Ninjala etc.

Do you all have any artstyle tips, to make the track look better? I'm mostly refering to texturing the grass & stuff like that.
For textures, just create a pattern, and spread it in a irregular manner, so it doesn't repeat, if you are lazy just apply a noise filter.
Is that app specific? I don't think what I use has that...

Paint, good art and good curves
"Good art" but how do you achieve that? Yeah, obviously if you have good art the track will look good, but how do you get good art in the first place? Especially if you aren't an artist?
Im artist
Good point. Thanks, I guess.
