Going down a theology rabbit hole with the full intent of power scaling it is the most insane power move.

I get communication is hard, but this really gives the "furry dog kobold" thing. Except instead of being a translation error, it's... I'm not even sure how hard that'd be to communicate. Like, what's even the hurdle? An example would help, but they might have to AI generate it if that's the idea.

I agree, it sounds like it would've worked, but maybe just slightly not the way originally envisioned, lol.

Good vision regardless of the meme though.

And if we want to really split hairs and have it be about mainline appearances, Daisy. GG EZ, one single game that's maybe mainline, then never again. Waluigi is notorious for being a spin-off only character, that doesn't stop the attention he gets. More than King Wart or Tatanga get, mainlines.

Yeah, in my mind, that's just the way Nintendo looks at it. Of course, I understand there's probably other hurdles that prevent the devs from adding characters from like, the RPGs.

But gauging investment in "mainline mario characters" is a joke. It's shallow, that's WHY people yearn for the RPGs.

It somehow always surprises me the lengths Gamers™ will go out of their way to to not show solidarity with literally anyone
