"5-2 but what is even the point?" was amazing. All obstacles taken out, no enemies, and it scares you if you try to jump into the buzzsaw. Amazing concept
I can elaborate a little more on that! As the second level of world 5, I felt there was an expectation that it should be a spectacular highlight of the world, and I decided instead to pull a hard swerve and make the biggest possible anti-climax. Originally the world was meant to be more parody than earnest tribute to the SMB1 remake worlds, and I wanted levels like this to make a subtle meta-story about the level creator going insane. Here the emotional numbness is symbolized with silence and lack of interactables, and harmful ideation with the poison shroom past the goal and the inaccessible sawblade being the only thing to make a sound. The liminal discomfort and bewilderment on Dave's face is exactly the reaction I was hoping for.
Level creator here again, mostly to come to the defense of the Dark Water level. 3:46 The first thing you see in the level is an arrow pointing down a pipe like you should enter it, but when you try to do that, instead the screen lights up. It happens repeatedly as Dave spams down. This is a property of Mario, not of the pipe. The pipe is fake. The pipe is just like any old ground. You push down, you see the key, you move on. This was to tutorialize this flashlight mechanic, and from there you're supposed to look for safe ground to land on that hasn't been turned to spikes to light up again and this will help you look for the pink coins. I turn to the level creators and players in the audience. What could I have done to tutorialize better?
Either make any safe ground a pipe to connect the pipe to pressing down or have it spelled out in a starting room. Pipe+ down = empty box. Below is a pipe. They press down and it lights up. I would replace the pipe with ? Blocks or some other unique block though. People see pipe and down and just assume you are supposed to enter it. Then are confused when they can't. Or rename the level 5-2, but you need a flashlight. This primes the player to expect it to be dark. Then when you show the light mechanic they are more likely to put it all together from the title. Just a few ideas. Grain of salt and all that.
Sometimes, it's sadly the case that no matter how well you give a gameplay-based tutorial, someone will still just miss it anyways. And even if you give a WRITTEN tutorial, they may still miss it. In this case, we had the former, as DGR just decided that having his hands glued to the spring like his life depended on it caused him to not get the whole idea as he never had much reason (or chance) to stand on solid ground. One way to maybe give an additional hint is by renaming the level? Say "but duck brightens your day" or something like that.
Im confused on the age of DGR's audience. Some of the comments are like "i love mario maker dgr mario yay" and others are like "Me and my wife love your videos!"
17:15 Wait is the real reason for doing it with 5-2... a height joke? Wasn't there a running gage for a while about DGR being 5'2? Or am I thinking of someone else.
as a fellow migraine sufferer not really, just keep the volume down and don't use headphones. The really bad idea is watching Hungrybox with a migraine.
"Greens powders are not a substitute for a well-balanced diet and cannot replace the nutritional benefits you get from consuming whole foods. However, doctors say that greens powder can be a great way to supplement a healthy diet with a boost of extra vitamins and antioxidants." Dave is not a nutritionist. Do not follow his advice about veggies
Dgr would you ever play level made for a ytber by the name of dashie games? His fans have made some amazing well thought out levels that I think you’d really enjoy I have to codes for all of them. Is there maybe a place I can request lvls
TIL that many random Amanda appearances that don't line up with interesting gameplay have likely been removed from TH-cam videos, and I think that's a travesty.
I've been subbed to/watching DGR for like 6 years now, and he's a freaking HOOT! My one and ONLY dislike/comment I have is that Dave treats Amanda kinda badly. I hate seeing that. He's dismissive of her, he ignores her, and he clearly doesn't like it when she goes into his studio whilst recording, as evidenced in this very video. I dunno, man. I'm still gonna watch #dgr, I just wish he'd be a little nicer to his wife is all.

@@AllonBachuthWoooooww, I didn't even register that it was the 5-2 level of the 5-2 Super World! The atmosphere was great!

3000 hours playing and 171 IQ🤷♂️
Exactly I was just screaming at Dave. Though he did duck as fire Mario later into the section and it didn’t light up. I assume that is a bug.
@@discussions. I think that's a joystick moment possibly exacerbated by the NSMB style. The flashlight really needs a solid, clean down press.

Special guest appearances from Amanda being completely out of pocket is one of my favorite things about watching DGR.
Was practically screaming at Dave to duck in the Night Underwater stage.
That melting level is such an awesome idea
The sniper Sun was soooo funny, sniper Suns will never not be funny 😂
@@Pr1est0fDoom indeed
A DGR video a day keeps the depression away
True that
It does 😊
Fax
My 4 year old grandson laughs every time DGR hollers and dies. Lol!
still waiting to find out what LeAnn Rimes loves
Im confused on the age of DGR's audience. Some of the comments are like "i love mario maker dgr mario yay" and others are like "Me and my wife love your videos!"
What part is confusing again?
I love mario maker dgr. My cat does too, she likes when she swats at mario and he (unrelatedly, but she doesn't know that) dies.
Also I'm 35
I'm pretty sure a big chunk is 25-36 or so. But ya know. DGR is particularly family-friendly, so folks don't mind their kids tuning in.
This is by far the best remake world. Each level is so entertaining to watch
1:22 wait, what does lean rhymes love??
Did anyone else spend the entire dark level screaming at Dave that the hint at the beginning meant he could duck and get the lights to turn on??
Yes. Including apparently the level creator, in Dave's twitch chat.
I know sometimes they can be goofy for content, but like it's sometimes painful, lol. And I love DGR, but I question that IQ of his at times. 😂
17:15 Wait is the real reason for doing it with 5-2... a height joke? Wasn't there a running gage for a while about DGR being 5'2? Or am I thinking of someone else.
5-2 is actually one of my favorite levels but what I really want to see are 8-1 and 8-3 butt worlds.
These levels are fun to watch, even with the annoying scrolling chat. (Dave, please, it doesn't have to scroll!)
19:53 it has all the sense, it's there in the rest of the levels. Oh my, it's so clever.
0:27 🎵 Ain't no sunshine when she's gone...🎵
Spring + DGR = WAY Too Awesome To Use!
Probably not the best idea to watch a DGR video while having a migraine 😂
as a fellow migraine sufferer not really, just keep the volume down and don't use headphones.
The really bad idea is watching Hungrybox with a migraine.
DGR, you can't just tell Chris to edit out your wife.
I love how you expertly dodged the green cheep-cheep by just swimming like a pixel infront of it and then you just swam into the bleeper.
Definitely like these style worlds. Keep em coming Dave 😁
20:25 Funny that you started busting out Coldplay in the middle of an NSMBU Airship level
I am so glad that what Amanda said wasn't cut out!! Thank you #AmandaDGR for making my day embarrassing #DGR!! 😂
Should be a 3DW level with a Koopa car clear condition called "5-2 But What the Car?"
0:25 the SNIPE returns yet again lol
1:01 and again 😆 😆
I don't think that's why Dave would be called a Hobbit...
This episode was brought to you by the words " why do I say things?" And the word screw hole
that dark underwater segment is prime dave moment.
Dave's two favorite themes, darkness and water! Yay! Now it just needs auto scrolling and it'll be perfect!
That "dark water" level was nightmare fuel ⛽️
"Good thing I'm fast AF bois".... Dies to the sun
You know it's easy to forget that dgr is kaizo capable if you only watch trolled
Again these are the best!!! Thanks!
Great video title, it told us exactly what the video was about!
I would totally go for some Sky Meatball
You don’t look like a lumberjack…
Also THE LINE!!!
The sun off the top rope!
17:33 - "No diamonds, though..."

What is that music for the first stage? Bootleg SMB?
"Carl has ruined." Indeed
IMPECCABLE first death
19:19 To be honest, I thought that said Airship Amanda as well.
Dgr would you ever play level made for a ytber by the name of dashie games? His fans have made some amazing well thought out levels that I think you’d really enjoy I have to codes for all of them. Is there maybe a place I can request lvls
I’ve heard the story of church butt, but how does one get 5-2 butt
Today I learned that Dave is a huge fan of LeAnn Rimes. Who would have thunk it?
yes cant wait to watch
Axis Adventure 2. Coming to Mario maker 2 on March 1st 2024
14:13 I sang this at a chorus concert
Love the channel
Guys i think 5-2 is melting
TIL that many random Amanda appearances that don't line up with interesting gameplay have likely been removed from TH-cam videos, and I think that's a travesty.
will anyone do all the previous levels?
I wonder if he saw it after checking the footage
14:40 lol
22:26 almost cheese
2:47 that's what she said
1:59 such a poor choice of words...
3:12 and again
10:16 and Amanda...
Not 5-2 would've been funnier if it was 1-2.
got here fast
78th
5-2 world, what level will be next turned into a world? I don’t know, but i know dave‘s gonna play it😂
