I LIKE it, thanks boss.

Protip: If you place the cursor at the bottom of the right edge of the first image you place and then you paste the next one it will put them on the same line if they have been resized to be half the width or less, so you'll have two columns instead of just one, I think you already made them half width anyway so prob just have to change the formatting of the post like I said.

Or you could even do it like above with 3 pictures a row, since you can click it and get the slideshow thingie anyway if you want to check them in detail. Basically just paste all the links in without line breaks and then resize them is probably even easier than what I said above.
 
Wooded Kingdom for me.

In terms of tiers:

Top:
Wooded
Sand

Great:
Luncheon
Bowsers
Metro
Seaside

Good:
Cascade
Lake
Lost
Dark

Meh:
Darker
Cap
Moon

Disappointing:
Snow
Mushroom
Ruined
Cloud
 
I voted for Sand Kingdom, Lake Kingdom, Seaside Kingdom, and Metro Kingdom

The only one I truly enjoyed and appreciated was the Sand Kingdom or Tostarena. Seaside Kingdom was a looker, pretty good too. Metro Kingdom was fun. Lake Kingdom was okay. The rest I didn't really care for much. I was expecting a lot more from Super Mario Odyssey. I guess I'm comparing it to Super Mario 64 too much and holding it to that unbeatable quality? Because I can really beat that game down with criticisms despite having enjoying it a lot. It didn't have that classic Mario feel to it overall, despite paying homage to pretty much Mario everything within the game
 
There are some great places here. I loved exploring all of them, but I think Metro is my favorite for "Jump up Superstar".
 
I love the sand kingdom, its gorgeous and easily the most interesting and fun to explore kingdom in the game. My core issue with odyssey is that i just dont think there are many interesting platforming challenges in the kingdoms. I hope the next game pulls the jungle gym like course layout mixed with the open world of lake lapcat from the upcoming bowsers fury and combines them with the interesting biomes of odysseys varied kingdoms. I also hope there are a few straight forward a-b galaxy style structured levels in their too.
 
Wooded and Bowser are just amazing. Wooded Kingdom is the most Banjo-Kazooie 3D Mario ever got, in the best possible way. And dat music!

Cascade Kingdom is fantastic as the first true world to explore, though. Great music, good variety without being too big.
 
Every major map had at least two or three really fun features. The only big map that disappointed me was the Moon (especially as a follow-up to the fantastic samurai realm). It's probably my #2 3D Mario game for what it's worth.
 
Wooded Kingdom because it's fun and huge but also that music is some of the best mario music in decades
