Right around halfway through The Thousand Year Door, the Peach segments in-between chapters are far worse in this one than in the original, but the Bowser segments are f*cking awesome.
ALSO, Holy backtracking, everything up to the Twilight Town chapter felt really great, but as soon as you beat Doopliss for the first time, it takes a huge nosedive.

Go outside, walk all the way back to town, avoid battle, keep walking, avoid battle, keep walking, get forced to run away from a boss you've already beaten, keep walking, find a necklace, listen to some birds, keep walking, run away from the SAME BOSS you already beat AGAIN, keep walking, walk ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE CASTLE, avoid some battles, avoid some turtle battles, eavesdrop on a bird, then WALK ALL THE MOTHERFLIPPIN WAY BACK TO TOWN, talk to the boss you keep avoiding, THEN WALK BACK TO THE CASTLE ONE MORE FUCKING TIME and have a mediocre boss battle.


Holy crap, I'm never a big fan of Backtracking, but at least in Metroid it makes sense.
