no because the original was groundbreaking for its time and is important historically
its pretty fun and cool if you wanna see someone do crazy shit in a mario 64 constraint though

The original run on real hardware and this one doesn't

It seems like cheating and unfair to try and compare the two. There's no way that game could be able to run on the original hardware, at least not without busting out the horizon fog.

Doesn't even look as good as Star Road, let alone the base game. Parts of it seem OK from a gameplay perspective, but the aesthetic is wrong, it feels more like Galaxy's ambiance shoved into 64.

Yeah, the aesthetic is all over place and the nauseating MIDI conversions from 100 different games blasting in your ears doesn't help. Star Road aesthetically looks a lot better but is much blander in level design and mechanics, its sequel was looking good until the author went full retard and moved it to SM64DS. Both are very flawed in their own romhacky ways but decent wastes of time.

Wish there was more N64 shit that runs on hardware, Project64 is a real piece of shit and puts me off ever revisiting hacks like these, I love getting fatal memory errors halfway through a stage.

>N64 controller in 240p
Why would you willingly do this to yourself?

>>5150670

Probably likes the controller and owns a CRT where the picture looks good, I'm guessing.

Doesn't look fun enough

>>5149419
fuck no. it's really horrid looking and very glitchy. the music is absolutely terrible.

>random vgmusic.com midis being used all over

Yep, a good sign of a bad fan game.

What is the best Mario 64 romhack, anyway?

You can see that in the original too.

Mario Rapist 64

Would love a mario 64 golden-eye mod . I know one exists as a fps but imagine one were you're miniature and the enemies are giant, you literately have to stealth through or dodge the bullets with your flips. Some highlights would include

>beating Koopa from jumping off the dam before you while enemies try to stop you

and

>Bowser fight at the bottom of the cradle

It's an indicator of one of two things - the entire thing being a vanity project catered to the tastes of the author or the music being a complete afterthought. Neither thing is particularly good to see in a hack/game, rare as it is it's always good to see ones that feature original music. Sonic fangames are generally good for this, probably because music tends to be seen as more important there.

i dunno

fuck off shill /vr/ is a haven for knowledable discussion of gamer gate.

GET IN HERE DO IT FOR FUCKING COURAGE WOLF. WE RE GOING TO STOP SCIENTOLOGY FOREVER

Whoever made it is a talented romhacker, but not a good level designer. The stage layouts feel like something from a B-list 3D platformer trying to cash in on Mario 64's popularity.
