It uses the same plot as pretty much every Mario game before it, just with more depth, like, instead of "Bowser is kidnapping Peach", it actually goes into detail to explain that he's doing it to marry her, something that hasn't been touched on outside of the Paper Mario games as far as I can remember. That doesn't make it "B for Babies".
As for it being linear, it's really not. Sure, some levels form a more linear path to the ultimate goal, like Bowser's Kingdom and what not, but theres still moons all over that allow for more varied exploration. I feel like a lot of it is an attempt to find a middle ground for the fans of the more recent 3D Mario games, and the more open ones of the past.
