lol

just because the game isn't the second coming of TTYD it doesn't mean that it's automatically a horrible game. removing all other paper mario games from the equation, this looks like a fun game with nice graphics. you can clearly see that they've taken some feedback from sticker star, like having more than just generic toads as NPCs, and adding a benefit to battling that isn't coins.

she wasnt really saying it was *bleep*, she was stating that a lot of people think its *bleep* for petty reasons and wont shutup about them.

yeah, you got my point exactly zae

btw i actually think that tyd is worse than the original 64 paper mario anyway
 
I will have to say that TTYD was Paper Mario to its perfection, Super Paper Mario was like Castlevania: SOTN + 2D Mario + Mega Man X7 (with ability to flip between 2D and 3D) and the TTYD artstyle blended together in a great way.
 
>perfection

pls

ttyd was nice but i swear there were moments where i really wanted to drop the game, although i almost did with the shadow queen fight. it literally did a very similar final fight from mother 2.

if people like ttyd then fine but as far as i can tell its insanely overrated. its literally the ff7 of mario rpgs.

Seems legit.



Anyway Zae, TTYD happens to be my favorite Mario game of all time, and I completely understand why it is lauded as much as it is. Its got some parts that are genuinely awful, but for me the good parts more than make up for the bullshit.

Pls don't kill me.
 
its fine to like it, but i honestly cant see it as perfect, well then again i dont believe anything is perfect.

Even if i was a raging dragon girl about it i still love you edo.
 
Well, no, it's not perfect at all. It's got a lot of problems, like all that luck-based shit in the battles? The bingo that can screw you over? That godawful fucking fog that cuts your accuracy and that appears in later levels almost every time you use an explosion or a strong hammer attack? And then there's the General White thing which, even though I don't mind it as much as other people do, is still pretty dumb.

It's not perfect, but that's not a bad thing at all. That means it can still be improved and spawn concepts that build on the strong points they've already got going, and make an experience that is even better.

Unfortunately, Intelligent Systems seems to have given up on all of that.
 
First one is still the best.
 
I still haven't played the first Paper Mario but TTYD remains my favorite Mario RPG. I agree that the fog is pretty BS. I can't hate the bingo too much because I got a Shine Sprite bingo during my fight with the Shadow Queen that kept me alive. Might be why I never died against her.
 
If you're talking about the getting a Shine during the final phase of her fight at the beginning, that's scripted. If not, then you got lucky.

The biggest flaws off ttyd for me were the majority of the stage/audience stuff, the entirety of Twilight Trail, and the General White chase. Still a fantastic game otherwise.
 
the tacky audience gimmick was the main reason i prefer 64's battle system. i just don't like it too much.
