Did anybody ask? No. Did I want to give my thoughts anyway? Why else would I be making this? I kinda like the idea of Mario being darker and edgier, but I kinda feel like this series is TOO dark and edgy. I'm gonna list the problems I have with it.
The Stages:
All the fields just look like generic places that could be put into any video game franchise without question. Just remove the audience and the two Mario references per game and this may as well be Extreme FIFA. Battle League fixes this, but it took Next Level three whole tries to make Strikers feel like a Mario series.
The Music:
I'm not a rock fan. It makes sense in Sonic and F-Zero, but who the heck wants to listen to a heavy metal remix of the NSMB overworld theme that sounds nothing like it? There were different genres in Charged, but in the other games, there's no variety.
Calm Down, Yoshi:
There'd be a small chance I'd change my mind about how over-the-top Strikers is, IF EVERYONE DIDN'T LOOK SO FRICKIN' PISSED. I get it, you guys are kinda competitive, but it's a damn game of soccer, not The Hunger Games. You're not gonna die. You may get a shock, but it'll only last a few seconds.
So yeah, those are my thoughts on Strikers. I understand that everyone has their own opinion, but after the Daisy DLC (those two words do not belong in the same Strikers-related sentence,) I decided to give a little rant about it. If you like Strikers, that's okay. It's just not for me, even though I have a Wii.

I'm pretty sure the edgyness is to differentiate from the normal soccer they do, but whatever.

I know that, but I still feel like they took it a tad too far. But if you like it, good for you.

Your pov is interesting, but I want to give a proper answer to that, if you allow me:
-Mario Strikers was the way to allow the Mario franchise to go out of bounds from time to time. When the first game came out on Gamecube, or more importantly, the Wii version came, you can't even imagine the hype it would trigger in people, and that was around 15 years ago!

-The game have a metal tone, but where Strikers actually topped the concept of out of bounds, is in the Wii version. You have a lot of styles of music (from jazz to country) to represent each character, that was given totally different behaviours and personnalities (who expected Flora Pirahna to be an hippie? Diddy Kong to be a budhist god?). There was a lot of violence as well, but it was really funny in many aspects, with running jokes during games. And that personality really gave an identity to the strikers series. I recommend you to play with the Wii game if you want a top experience for the series.

-the recent game confirmed you don't play soccer (football in most countries, I may add), but a different sport called strikers, which is inspired by soccer! So yeah, strikers is close, but not the same, like a cousin.

Also I don't like to promote myself like that, but if you are active and interested, you can probably help us in the MKPC Strikers team? https://mkpc.malahieude.net/topic.php?topic=9505

The promotion wasn't cringe. However, it's clearly not at the right place neither to the right person. Je says he dislikes it and you're basically proposing him to join ?
Kinda weird but ok
