Why don’t the enemies turn around and chase Mario if he jumps over them? They just keep running left for no reason. This game is cringe. Why couldn’t they make the enemy AI actually try to kill you? Boos are pretty good but once you figure out their gimmick you can just keep flicking in their direction. All of the enemies in this game basically are non-threats unless you mis-time a jump, why aren’t they more aggressive like in Castlevania?

You have a mother, possibly a sister. So why don't you have a girlfriend? I mean they are the same thing right?

Aren't enemies in Castlevania also a non-threat outside of medusa heads?
I say this loving Castlevania btw, I just dont recall any enemies being interesting.

Why are you going on a tangent? Explain to me why they dont chase Mario. They don’t turn around and chase Mario so how are they even a threat? How are they even an enemy?

Why does touching them even kill you when they show no sign of aggression to Mario and are just mindlessly walking left?

Are they so overpowered that even touching them makes Mario die?

But if they are so strong then why is it just jumping on their head completely crushes their skull?

These old games are shit boomer this is why fortnite won

Explain to me why you don't have a girlfriend. I mean you talk your mother and your sister, so you should know how to talk to women, why can't you just get one?

They can't tell if Mario then went to the left or the right of them after the stomp because they can't really see with their heads crushed in like that.

all more engaging than Mario World enemies and thats literally only counting the first game

What bothers me more is that they can fall into a pit, yet if Mario comes back to the section they suddenly reappear.

I always though these guys were meant to be a parody of Dragon Quest

This. Their potential was stunted. Mario, it's not like he's a particularly intelligent guy. He's a plumber who had a few entheogenic experiences. I'd like to see him match minds with a real deprogrammed lizard person.

because enemies in these games are just moving obstacles to fuck with your jumps. these games are about platforming not killing shit.

Because the anemic and weak 2.68 mhz SNES processor could not handle a game like this with enemies with AI, this is also why there are so few simultaneous enemies, and why the physics model is so unrealistic. The deficient SNES hardware held back so many of it's games, it is quite sad, thankfully, there were many alternative 16-bit hardwares to more than pick up the slack.

Yeah honestly, game is way too easy. Instead of jumping it should have a frame-perfect parry and riposte system, and enemies should be faster and have longer attack strings.

Mario enemies that follow Mario were tried and shown to be too nightmare inducing to be allowed to continue to exist.
