I know this is small but I really appreciate how Fir repeatedly says “the MOST intended way”. It really highlights how creative you can get with these moons which is what makes this game so special.
Which is actually fairly important for whichever seed ends up on the northwest pot, as that one will end up taking a full hour to grow, I believe, rather than the usual 20 minutes.
I cannot accurately describe how much of a towering achievement this video is for your channel, Fir. I don’t even want to know how much planning and editing and revising and this took. I mean, Odyssey Central’s crack at this idea was already really impressive, but you managed to provide even more detail to most moons, an introspection on every kingdom as a whole, a tier list alongside a ranking at the end, and solid editing throughout all 4 hours. This has to be one of the most impressive projects on this platform.
With the amount of times Fir accidentally says "forgetful" in place of "forgettable", it makes me think a lot of these moons have difficulties remembering their keys and wallets rather than making no impression.
I’ve always wanted to know what Fir’s favorite, least favorite, 69th favorite, and 373rd favorite moons are! Thanks for the documentary, it’s for real super well done, and I loved it all
Hey Fir, thanks for the video. You missed to mention something when ranking "Top of a Dune" (Sand Kingdom #17): There is a cute way to discover this moon (and I found it this way originally): When you capture a Moe-Eye and put on the shades, you see a glow in the distance where the moon is. I love this so much.
I found this for another ground pound moon in Moon cave but never noticed it for on Top of the Dune. It's a neat addition but I still generally dislike the invisible ground pound moons
@@breaddatisbreadIt's not a stupid idea, it's just a poorly executed idea. Could've definitely designed moons where it's interesting to use Moeyes to see them. But they didn't.
I've been saying that 15/50 would make so much more sense that the 15/100 for hero of the beach for so long. Hearing you say it makes me feel so validated. Really enjoyed the video, wish I could sub to you a second time!
I really like how you mentioned that even the filler moons can all come together to create a fun and rewarding exploration system, because I totally agree. The worlds feel so much more fun to run around in when you have moons just sitting around to find and collect, even if they are super lame in a vacuum.
All human understanding is based on comparison. We can't understand good without seeing bad. An experience cannot be full-throttle start to finish; that would be exhausting. The middling, waste of time moons create lows that accentuate the highs. We love the good moons more because we see what bad moons can be. If Mario Odyssey had deleted all of the bad moons, it would have been a worse experience.
My biggest issue with the 500 coin moon in Deep Woods is the fact that this concept isn’t repeated anywhere else. It *feels* like a recurring moon, but it’s the only place in the entire game where that capture actually has a use. I saw that area and knew something had to be done there, but couldn’t figure it out until I saw an all moons speedrun.
I feel like with cascade, not enough credit was given to "This is a tutorial. There WILL be some easy, just sitting there moons, to help teach people the game."
I would argue moons that don't require any effort to get to don't teach players anything other than the fact that there are moons that take no effort to get to
@@Lovely_Bean_ odyssey was my first mario game and guess what? """free""" moons helped, its the exact same as lots of achievements at the start of a game, it gets you going. i wouldnt of played it if it wasnt the only game we started out with and it was already on the system which is easier to forget as there's no card. now you might think that's stupid and when you have a game you should play it anyway, i was a young child and seeing mario and cappy's happy animation when i got those moon lying around was nice, i didnt really know who mario was that well and i loved that odyssey was my intro to 3d mario games. btw odyssey is a CHILDREN'S GAME, the turtorial is Meant to be easy, let children have fun dumb@ss
@Lovely_Bean_ It teaches them that moons exist, what they look like, that they're spread around the map in varying locations, that you need them to progress, and what you should be looking out for in general when seeking them out. It's a tutorial level. It's not supposed to be teaching you trick jumps, variable platforming, or unique puzzles yet. Cap Kingdom taught you the basic mechanics of movement and world interaction, Cascade Kingdom teaches you the basic mechanics of goal-based progression. That's practically essential for a video game this complex aimed at young kids. Cascade treats Moons like other kingdoms treat Moon Shards. Because, in that kingdom, they serve the same effective function as a Moon Shard. It's only in Sand Kingdom where they put up the curtain and say "Okay, now you get what you're doing and why you're doing it. Here's where it comes together. Good luck."
55:30 fun fact, until i watched a play through i never realized you were supposed to take a cheep-cheep down the hole and simply ground-pounded and made it on the brink of death
Fantastic video, kept me entertained for an entire glove (crocheting), my only wish is that the list at the end had the letter/rank displayed as well. Great stuff!
I just want you to know how good I sleep listening to this. I keep coming back to it whenever I’m restless. Your voice, the listing off stuff, all perfect for a good nights sleep.
For real, genuinely a great way to express the overall poor design and execution of the Toadette moons. 1 at a time, pointless filler, and none are even really unique. Toadette is possibly my least favorite part of the game.
Going through these like this helps me to see that the point of Cap Kingdom is to be a tutorial for SMO's unique movement, while Cascade Kingdom is a tutorial for how collecting stars works. That would explain why the moons from those two kingdoms are both very easy, even superficially so, but in different ways. Each moon in Cap Kingdom helps you learn to move, each moon in Cascade Kingdom teaches you about the kinds of puzzles you'll experience to get moons.
Technically you're not really meant to get any moons in cap kingdom until you beat the game bc you'll have no reason to go back and there aren't any moons until you go back so it's not really a tutorial for moving
This video made me so happy I love it tysm for making this Super Mario Odyssey is one of my hyperfixations and I love hearing people talk about it for hours so you just made my day
Often times it's the contrast that makes the good things great, its why you find serious and scary moments in comedies while finding comedic moments in dramas and horror. Having some obviously crappy/easy moons makes the challenging/great moons shine even more.
I’ve been really looking forward to this video!!! Thank you for doing it! I can’t imagine how long it took to plan out and record all the video. It’s a great video to listen to while painting. So thank you again!
I loved the video, the time and dedication is appreciated and worth it, it represents and shows your quality as a youtuber, endure and answer even the most ridiculous questions from your subs IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE, I loved the video, GOD tier
Holy shit. Was expecting a livestream montage of you doing a 100% run and saying the tiers but to actually narrate every single moons with explanations? Insane.
This is a great, well-edited video! I like that you found some things to say for even the most unremarkable moons. It shows that you put lots of effort into this!
Was not prepared to enjoy this video as much as I did. Watched it over the course of three days lol. It was great to hear such an in depth commentary from someone who knows the game so well
16:10 The thing is, that moon was made for you to triple jump, as those steps appear as one set a bit earlier in the kingdom, with a sign telling you about triple jumping.
Big fan of LS Mark style formatting. Ranking each moon with where it places within its kingdom was a great way to help us visualize your final list before it happened. Can’t wait til this video gets 5 million views
Finally had time to finish watching! Insane work, Fir! I don't even want to imagine how much work it actually took. The hatred for a treasure made from coins was to be expected but ngl the intensity for Chargin' Chuck sub-area took me by surprise lmao The conspiracy theory definitely sounds valid tho!
The moon in Lake Kingdom on the Little Pillar is pretty great imo. An unremarkable spot, that still sticks out. You won't find it, if you don't search in such places. And since you don't need every moon to beat the game, it's a nice reward for players trying to find as much secrets as possible.
As a wannabe game designer I actually really like On Top of the Rubble because it shows that the devs understand their intended audience: children with limited patience. Your initial Cascade visit isn’t meant to be an open-world tour like most Kingdoms that come after-it’s given a sense of urgency. You’re given a task by a frantic NPC, and children are more likely to help NPCs when they ask for it. You need 5 Moons to fix the ship. You get Our First Power Moon to introduce yourself to the concept, you fight Ma Broodal to introduce Multi-Moons, and you need a fifth Moon so you can fix the ship and go to the next kingdom right away, where you spend a significantly longer time. The Moon on Top of the Rubble is placed in an obvious location on purpose so kids don’t feel stressed out when they’re so close to their goal. From there, they can work their way up to the more complex puzzles.
I agree, it serves a really important purpose. But this ranking is mostly about how enjoyable or interesting Fir finds it, rather than how good it is from a game design perspective or the millions of other possible perspectives
1:42:33 If you were too enraptured by the awe of the festival for your secret-hunting brain to be active, i'm sorry but that's a skill issue. Got this moon first try because of *course* I'm going to check on top of the coin blocks I can jump onto.
I just thought of a video idea For you You may actually like this one. Super Mario Odyssey, but Koopa free free-running is always Active That's basically Where You're trying to beat the game. Before the Koopas do. So you're racing against the Koopas. To the end of the game. Maybe you could add some other twist. Cause seems kind of easy but still.
1:49:06 iirc, the map is a brochure that tells you stuff about the world. It has some if not all the answers to the questions. If it's just some, I think some npcs talk about her
good video, lost kingdom was my favorite ever since I first picked up this game. The smaller size and verticality allows for skips like in the koopa freerunning and reminds me of something like whomps
as someone with very scattered mario odyssey knowledge who mostly followed the low% captures category (all about using cappy as little as possible and only getting the moons needed to progress the run), i was entirely unaware of a majority of these moons before this video. and im having the time of my life watching it and learning about all of them, so :3 great work, just, really engaging
Volleyball 100 is literally the only moon i am missing. My high score was 70-something and i have refused to go abck and try again ever since failing that run
Honestly I wish that the rumble moons were replaced with equivalent Hint Art moons. There is clearly no problem with giving a kingdom multiple Hint Arts, as seen in Dark Side. Maybe put the extra hints in Mushroom or Moon since they already feel like you're expected to find them in the postgame anyway. The rumble moons are the ones I feel are the worst designed. Especially since not all Switch controllers have rumble in them.
I like how you play through like 7 different games' credits music to go through all the moons at the end. Really gives you some perspective of just how MANY MOONS there are 😅
While I don’t disagree with your rankings, I am a little surprised that some of the common “Any %” moons got ranked lower for being boring. Ones that might be boring to find from a player’s perspective, but are on your path in a speedrun, are always nice to get if you want to leave the kingdom earlier, and I was expecting some moons to get bumped up to slightly higher rankings for that.
7:05 I remember at one point me and my sister were trying to collect all the moons, she would play and I would read her descriptions on how to find the moons. She was better at the game than me except for the Koopa races. I always felt so cool doing the Koopa races for her
i. never knew about the shiverian treasure chest path. i completed the game, every moon, and i jumped up to that moon and always thought damn, that was some pretty hard platforming for a moon in this kids game.
You gave “I Feel Underdressed” in lake kingdom a B+ for allowing you to use Boxers for swimwear, but didn’t count that you can use the skeleton costume for “dancing with new friends” in sand kingdom, which feels kind of unfair. I mean no one is gonna use that solution before using the normal outfit, but it’s neat that they thought that far ahead.
bro forgets not everyone is a god gamer like him with the "too easy" moons. odyssey is for everyone, but still glad to know some of the moons I struggle with are also hated by speed runners
You missed that in order for Peach to appear in a kingdom you must get world peace in that kingdom, making it another reward for world peace. I always liked that aspect of Peach’s moons. edit: everything here on is an edit added while watching the video 11:36 “I wish they played a small theme like that one star in Mario Galaxy” ah yes, the one time the notes in Mario Galaxy played a small theme So far Fir has yet to talk about the importance of teaching new players using early moons, or the subtle storytelling from moons (like lost in the luggage) (or thanks for the charge. I always loved the story telling of that one)
I know this is small but I really appreciate how Fir repeatedly says “the MOST intended way”. It really highlights how creative you can get with these moons which is what makes this game so special.
Real, speedrunners never do that
How creative can you get with the thousand moons for planting seeds or doing a ground pound
Pure insanity, can't wait to watch this in the background all day
I’ve been watching it in bed with covid all day, it’s great
Got the flu, so chilling watching this and playing Splatoon 3 Side Order
Hi gem cat!!! How often you make mods? And also, HOW do you play them on switch when you get mods on PC?
Exactly what I’ve been doing all day XD
Bold of you to assume it's background material. I will view every second.
2:19:35 one neat little thing I would add here, not really to improve their score, is that you can use a gushin to speed up the plants’ growth
Which is actually fairly important for whichever seed ends up on the northwest pot, as that one will end up taking a full hour to grow, I believe, rather than the usual 20 minutes.

I love this so much.
I found this for another ground pound moon in Moon cave but never noticed it for on Top of the Dune. It's a neat addition but I still generally dislike the invisible ground pound moons

using moeyes to see moons is a stupid idea they should just be used to see platforms

All human understanding is based on comparison. We can't understand good without seeing bad. An experience cannot be full-throttle start to finish; that would be exhausting.

If Mario Odyssey had deleted all of the bad moons, it would have been a worse experience.
My biggest issue with the 500 coin moon in Deep Woods is the fact that this concept isn’t repeated anywhere else.

good video, lost kingdom was my favorite ever since I first picked up this game. The smaller size and verticality allows for skips like in the koopa freerunning and reminds me of something like whomps
That "Found with Cap Kingdom Art"...
FOR MY ENTIRE ODYSSEY PLAYTIME
I THOUGHT THOSE WERE TOSTERENA BUILDINGS
*ARE YOU KIDDING ME*
Yeah, I had to look up most of the Hint Art, especially the Dark Side ones
You got to respect this man for making a 4 hour video just talking about super Mario odyssey moons
Congrats on your Mario Odyssey doctoral thesis lol. Will be saving this for this weekend for when I tackle cleaning my room
as someone with very scattered mario odyssey knowledge who mostly followed the low% captures category (all about using cappy as little as possible and only getting the moons needed to progress the run), i was entirely unaware of a majority of these moons before this video. and im having the time of my life watching it and learning about all of them, so :3 great work, just, really engaging
The clown outfit while slowly going to sleep for the Toadette moons lmao
Watching the rankings on this video only confirmed to me that Fir is indeed a speedrunner.
I’ll call it. Worst is the Volleyball
100 and the best is darker side!
Coin cougher moon exists
I say the badest Mons are the flying sphynx and Taxi
Volleyball 100 is literally the only moon i am missing. My high score was 70-something and i have refused to go abck and try again ever since failing that run
@@TheCodysbiggestfan same here, I hate that moon
@@TheCodysbiggestfan try 2 player mode
THANK YOU FIR. My day has been rough but this brightens it up quite a lot. I love your content in general but 4hrs of it is a blessing. THANKS
I hope the rest of your day is as wonderful as you are, random stranger on the internet
@@BaalFridge wow thank you so much, that really means a lot to me random stranger c:
Honestly I wish that the rumble moons were replaced with equivalent Hint Art moons. There is clearly no problem with giving a kingdom multiple Hint Arts, as seen in Dark Side. Maybe put the extra hints in Mushroom or Moon since they already feel like you're expected to find them in the postgame anyway. The rumble moons are the ones I feel are the worst designed. Especially since not all Switch controllers have rumble in them.
I like how you play through like 7 different games' credits music to go through all the moons at the end. Really gives you some perspective of just how MANY MOONS there are 😅
3:53:56 *WWIIDDEE PPEEAACCHH* jumpscare lmao
3:56:40 is a bit closer to it, but whatever
It took me a while to get through the whole thing, but great video! (:
While I don’t disagree with your rankings, I am a little surprised that some of the common “Any %” moons got ranked lower for being boring. Ones that might be boring to find from a player’s perspective, but are on your path in a speedrun, are always nice to get if you want to leave the kingdom earlier, and I was expecting some moons to get bumped up to slightly higher rankings for that.
omg a 4 hour video, I'm gonna be watching this all through next week
Saying this took 8 months of time while posting 19 videos in that span is insane, major props
This is so interesting, no one would have every thought of this
7:05 I remember at one point me and my sister were trying to collect all the moons, she would play and I would read her descriptions on how to find the moons. She was better at the game than me except for the Koopa races. I always felt so cool doing the Koopa races for her
i. never knew about the shiverian treasure chest path. i completed the game, every moon, and i jumped up to that moon and always thought damn, that was some pretty hard platforming for a moon in this kids game.
I've got a certain amount of fondness for the taxi/sphinx in distance moons. They're like a shitpost romhack moon but in the actual game.
Nice to watch on my sleepy day off
Oh boy this is gonna be fun 😃
Volleyball 100 better be last 😂
You gave “I Feel Underdressed” in lake kingdom a B+ for allowing you to use Boxers for swimwear, but didn’t count that you can use the skeleton costume for “dancing with new friends” in sand kingdom, which feels kind of unfair. I mean no one is gonna use that solution before using the normal outfit, but it’s neat that they thought that far ahead.
Wow really? I haven’t gotten that moon in my replay the normal way so I’ll get it like that and upload it!
bro forgets not everyone is a god gamer like him with the "too easy" moons. odyssey is for everyone, but still glad to know some of the moons I struggle with are also hated by speed runners
this was a list of how much he enjoyed the moons not an objective tierlist of how good they are.
Never felt like a long video! Fir always deliver good dopamine fr
4:12:01 WHAT THERE IS A DRAGON IN DARKER SIDE?!?!
I wish
Truly a god tier comfort video!!
You missed that in order for Peach to appear in a kingdom you must get world peace in that kingdom, making it another reward for world peace. I always liked that aspect of Peach’s moons.
edit: everything here on is an edit added while watching the video
11:36 “I wish they played a small theme like that one star in Mario Galaxy” ah yes, the one time the notes in Mario Galaxy played a small theme
So far Fir has yet to talk about the importance of teaching new players using early moons, or the subtle storytelling from moons (like lost in the luggage) (or thanks for the charge. I always loved the story telling of that one)
Thank you so much for making this video. It helped me get all 880 moons in Mario Odyssey and helped me 100% it.🎮
