In this month’s Symposium we’ll be discussing Bowser’s Fury. Some topics I’d like to hit on:

• This is the first Mario game to go all-in on being an open world; that both to broader trends but also has points in common with 3D Mario games starting from Super Mario 64.
• It’s a somewhat experimental game, in a way that’s rare for AAA studios; what do we think about that?

We’ll meet Thursday at 8:30 EDT / 7:30 CDT / 5:30 PDT, voice chat over Discord.
