Just picked this game up yesterday. It seems to me that if you're incapable of death, then enemies are only there to annoy you and waste your time - and indeed, everything DOES.

You still "die" by getting transported back to an earlier part of the level.

Only during boss fights, isn't it?

Wario land 2 has the same mechanics.

You are supposed to use the tranformations to get ahead and collect secrets,

So you are saying dying would not waste your time by making you respawn at an earlier checkpoint?

Do you not see the beauty of this game mechanic, or are you so used to derivative formulaic platformers?

>>4081972
it's more about just getting through the levels with all the coins you can so it's fine.
find secrets, get money, try not to take damage, repeat.
death wouldn't really make sense with how the levels is laid out and the enemies aren't quite dangerous enough.
to each their own tho.

So puzzle mechanics based around the damage effects you take from enemies is too high brow to be a game?

This is why SML3/VB/WL4/World are better than WL2/WL3, the immortality gimmick is casual as fuck.

No offense taken. But yeah, I posted that gif in the last 3 or 4 WL3 threads we had, I can't help it.

>I love the animations in WL3.
Even those who prefer WL2 have to admit that 3 looked better and was among the best looking titles on the GBC. The title screen of 3 alone (especially compared to that of 2) speaks volumes. Not to mention the soundtrack!
