ITT: Things you're still mad about

>>376530657
It appears that you are mad for no reason. It's a pretty good game actually and one of my favourites. I would also like another turn-based Paper Mario, but that doesn't make SPM bad.

>>376530780
SPM is only good if you've never played a platformer in your life.

Fuck you. Super may not be a traditional Paper Mario from a gameplay perspective, but it's a hell of a lot better than the garbage called Sticker Shit and Colored Trash, which do try to be more like the originals.

Super is a fun game. Yes it was very easy and it was aimed at casual audiences but they didn't also fuck it up like they did CS and SS.

I also really liked the story.

>>376536210
About on-tier with SS, it gets a couple points for making Huey likeable & each chapter showing what happened prior to Mario getting to Port Prisma. I'd give it points for that opening but right after the first boss Bowser kidnaps Peach again making it all feel pointless.

>>376536063
I hate CS because of the tedious battle system (can only organize cards horizontally one row, have to paint and flick every turn) and because of all the fucking white spots everywhere. Its worse than Super and probably SS imo.

>>376536063
Absolutely not. Super doesn't deserve to be any less than 5 greater-than signs left of either Color Splash or Sticker Star

>>376530943
People only like Super if they played it when they were young. Too easy with a simple story clearly aimed at young children. Even Yoshi's story has gameplay, SPM put me to sleep. There was a lot of repetitive bullshit where they go "Well, we're self aware so it's okay." The only good part of the game was dating Princess Peach for that one segment. It has garbage level and character design.

Sticker Star was a completely different direction from SPM though. They just suddenly decided to gut original characters from the 3DS Paper Mario game and add in stickers.

>>376537236
I agree. If CS was released when Super was and Super was released when CS was, a lot of these underaged people would love CS and defended its flaws and hate everything about Super.

>>376537432
No, I'd be 200% mad that they replaced all of the original characters with Toads and basically turned Paper Mario into New Super Mario Bros. but with paper.

If Super Paper Mario came out after that, I'd be disappointed that they still hadn't made another TTYD, but I'd consider the game to be a step in the right direction because they at least tried with the plot.

>>376539353
Bleck turned evil because he thought she was dead.

>>376530657
great game

>>376530780

Even if it was an okay game, it was the beginning of the end for Paper Mario. That is absolutely a good reason to be mad. The series was a strategic turn based RPG and then it was suddenly a mediocre platformer/action game with shallow RPG elements.

>>376540769
I really doubt it was SPM's fault. Well after SPM came and went they were developing a Paper Mario game more in the style to that of the first two for the 3DS. They then scrapped that game in favor of stickers.

>>376540769
No, it all went to shit ever since they added real life objects and seriously pushed the whole "paper" thing too far.

At least SPM actually has a point to combat

Halo 4.

Killed the momentum the series had. The Xbox One having a rocky start also did that, and MCC being buggy and multiplayer not working for months shot the Halo franchise in the back of the head.

Halo 5 multiplayer was great, but the franchise is nowhere near the level it was in 2003-2011.

The story of SPM was garbage. Sticker Star literally has a better story by merit of not wasting the player's time.

>>376541470
SPM's outrageous excuses of "character design" is at the very least responsible for Miyamoto cringing and wanting them to pull in the reins to "Mario World" characters for Sticker Star

Tanabe's interpretation of this is what lead to all Toads, all the time never mind the fact that Miyamoto's least favorite character in the franchise is Toad

Nearly every NPCs in PM64 and TTYD don't actually do anything but walk back and forth or stand still and don't have backsprites.Even an important Toad like Jolene oin TTYD does nothing but walk into a room and say something.

Whereas in Color Splash they do all sorts. If anything images like this >>376543317 is just bait from cowards afraid of a fair comparison. If TTYD is so good why do people only compare TTYD's strength(variety) while hiding its weakness(lack of animation) against an exaggeration of Color Splash weakness(variety) while hiding its strength(animation)?

Dude, literally only a few unique designs exist Toad-wise. You have the Rock Paper Wizards (which had better concept art), Foreman & the pirates pretty much. Then you have other shitters like the Professor who is a plain yellow Toad. Other NPCs include Shy Guys who are usually red or recolored or a couple random plain Green Koopas and a Goomba in the Colosseum. The best enemy-based NPC was the Sledge Bro by the way, he actually had those old shades from the older games.

>>376543450
It's easy to make expressions and copy & paste them on the same model whenever. Now if they had this many expressions on unique characters designs or hell, just normal enemies/enemy-based NPCs then I'd be impressed but they didn't for the most part. Fuck, there aren't that many enemies to begin with, if you look in/finish the museum most of the enemy cards are going to be recolors/variants of Shy Guys & Snifits, it's so lazy.

My point is that they should have put more effort into making the NPCs more distinct.
The previous games not only has differently designed toads, but also differently designed versions of enemies.
I'm not even sure CS has any unique enemy NPCs.

Yet they still didn't have any textures for a backsprites and beyond the main characters and Rawk Hawk they have the same amount of animation as PM64. They pass off shit like increasing the size of the Puni elder as "animation" and several NPCs don't even have animations for scenes where they should, like when the ship gets attacked some of the NPCs just stand still while everyone else is "panicing"(walking back and forth quickly).

The game needed a run button and faster enemies to compensate for that. They could have used the unused Z button for that too, but nooooo. It'd be to complicated to do something that Smash Bros does while holding it in NES style right Nintendo?!

Nintendo DF is the reason the company sucks nowadays. They defend every bad decision they make. In hindsight I should've never bought another Nintendo game after SPM except BotW. Every dollar I gave them has supported the downfall of the industry.

The picture was made before CS came out, Anon. I was mostly using it to show all the NPCs PM64, TTYD and SPM had.

Also it's still barely variety, give way more than recolors, give more unique designs on the Toads. Like why didn't the Professor have a lab coat on or why didn't the Toads that dance here have skirts on for the moment? If anyone else does have any form of unique design it's usually a recolored Toad with glasses and that's it, I don't see why they couldn't add more unique features to a decent amount of the NPCs. Basically a lot that has potential due to what the character is but they don't go all the way and just ends up plain.

>>376544863

You keep repeating this (if it is just you) without actually elaborating on what you mean.

>>376544651
It's nothing unlike the previous games besides everything being flat. It doesn't even take place in the same world.

>>376544885
and my point is that while that's a valid complaint for SS, it's not a valid complaint for CS because there's enough variation to the point that you can recall "the yellow toad in x" or "the green toad in y" and still know what you're talking about, on top of that there's the sunglasses toad and the action toads and the rock paper wizards, the shy guys and sniffits, etc. it's not a valid complaint for CS.

>>376545531

Come on the level design is bollocks. outside the Woah Zone they're just left to right levels with dead ends...you 3D Flip you find an item and then go back the exact same way to whoever needs the item. Or you find a door and continue onwards.

I mean TTYD has a similar issue and PM64 at times. But an improvement to the series as a whole that SS and CS share is the way the levels are designed.

Autists are awesome, they have the guts to speak normally and to the point without any worthless formalities or metaphors.

Autists are unique, they don't give a shit about social constructs and can see past flaws in humanity decades in advance, (everyone hates black people at one point in society, but autists can see through this and realize the truth, they were right all along, no matter what retarded society says)

Autists are tranquil, they may appear to be violent, but they have never started a war, or started a fight like the normie retards do all the time. Autists just can't stand how fucking retarded normies are sometimes, and it leads them (us) to freak out.

Autists are intelligent, like I've mentioned, they don't do any of the stupid shit that normies do, and they can think too well to get along with the normie trash.

Autists are smart, because they are intelligent

Autists are many, soon they will take over the world, by the year 2200 everyone will be severly autistic (1 in 68 currently and growing) and the world will finally be a perfect place!

What's wrong anon? You don't like the removal of exp from an RPG? What about fighting to buy stickers so you could fight more - thereby removing leveling as well. Or how about that glorious crown companion who is just the best thing since the beginning of time. Didn't enjoy the "HOW THE FUCK WOULD I EVEN KNOW THAT" "Puzzles." Cmon man, you had to at least like not even needing to fight at all since it didn't increase stats on anything. But hey, it also had that GREAT storyline and character cast with it such as....crown....and....Peach....and Bowser! Boy that Bowser AMIFOCKINRIGHT!?

You misunderstand him Anon, sure they function but he wants them to do more than just function. They put the bare minimum amount of effort to make them stand out and it should be more than that. It takes hell of a lot more effort & time to create more unique designs for NPCs and enemies than it is to just give them a couple different clothing features.

Look at General White for example, he's a silver Bob-omb that has a big ol' mustache, or Kroop (the mayor from Petalburg) which was a old Koopa with big hairy eyes and with a cane. They're hell of a lot more different and aren't even Toads. Hell the designs can go even further if you bring up partners or bosses with shit like Bobbery have a water wheel, Yoshi being a little punk, Watt being a baby lil' Sparky, Grubba being a blue Clubba (which was a enemy variant of a Spike already) with hat, glasses and vest that turns into a huge orange one after using the Crystal Star, the Goomba King/Goomboss which has a crown, white stache and striped pants (it's even sadder if you compare him to the Goombas that get a crown in Sticker Star) & etc.

>>376545773
When they aren't giving you Toads 90% of them are Shy Guys, you can also talk to a couple Goombas & Koopas in the Colosseum, like 2 Hammer Bros. during the Circus area and 1 Green Yoshi.

>>376546827

It wasn't even thought, I just didn't fucking know where the fuck the sticker was. I always knew the item it would probably be but, I never had the sticker it wanted so I had to backtrack multiple times before trying to find that one small as alcove on the upper left corner of the screen that you had to walk behind some scenery to find or something. I guess others didn't have this problem though.

They were flanderising Bowser. PM64 he was threatening but a bit of a goof(good). By TTYD he was always one step behind everyone else until the very end. By SPM he was everyone's chew toy to the point he was kidnapped and constantly whined about everything.

It was a good change because they atleast made him a competent villain even if he ended up being used in Color Splash.

Whoever makes the Paper Mario series should just make a game with a similar aesthetic that has nothing to do with Mario so all these retarded design choices aren't made.

>>376547152
>PM64 he was threatening but a bit of a goof(good).

Because he is the main villain of the story and is buffed through the power of the star rod, without which he wouldn't even have tried to kidnap Peach, since he would end up defeated by Mario. PM universe Bowser has always been a oaf.

An arrogant egomaniac who allows himself to be manipulated into awakening an ancient evil just because he was told that he would be able to control it.

Resourceful enough to realize that Mario would inevitably open the Thousand Year Door for him if his minions failed and that threatening Peach's life would stop Mario in his tracks.

it doesn't look better in motion. instead of stationary polygons you have tweened polygons with awful gradients. it's horse shit.

>>376548486
>Tweened
You don't even know what that means.

>>376547152
In Color Splash Bowser literally just wanted a rainbow shell so he went and spun the paint together making it black like a retard then got possessed by a another entity (that was half-baked and kind of but not really it's own monster? They really should've expanded upon that thing). He doesn't speak much but one of the two times he does speak while not being possessed in CS he is shown to be stupid/silly and incompetent again, he even wonders why Mario is in his castle & talking about Kart racing with him during the fight. If you're talking about anyone being threatening it's the Black Paint since he possessed Bowser. has his own half-baked goals and controls what Bowser says.

Also for Sticker Star, sure he was threatening in that without a doubt but he was only shown doing anything during the beginning of the game and the absolute end of the game.

Beyond the general idea of action commands SMRPG & PM are pretty different, Anon.

>you only have 1 partner in battle

>No references to SMRPG's characters or plot at all

If you want to say something is similar to SMRPG it'd be Mario & Luigi but that's expected since a lot of the team is the same and even then some could probably debate saying it's not that similar.

Fuck Empire Earth III. The first game was great and I actually liked the second one. What the actual fuck was that debacle of a game?

there is absolutely nothing in these screenshots to prove that it was an RPG at any point. there's no hud or UI elements that suggest there was any exp or fp. looks more like it was sticker star with OCs being allowed, and a chain chomp follows you for a segment of one level. stickers were clearly always a part of the game.

The screenshots don't show a hud but read the image/interview the Anon replied to, those screenshots were taken before the big shift happened and it was still a RPG.

>stickers were clearly always a part of the game
They were, but as the interview states they had a lesser role than what they now have. It was mostly going to focus on some puzzles and then it eventually had some influence on battles. After those images came out they basically started from scratch and rethought all mechanics.

Honestly. In the first 2 games only the characters were made of "paper", everything else was normal 3D. It was a cool artstyle imo. in the newer ones, everything is either paper, cardboard, or some giant real life object. They also made paper jokes, meaning they're self aware.

I disagree. He's encouraging you to use the hammer, so he's actually giving you wrong advice. "Fly high" also isn't quite spelling out the solution either.
