Why were they never able to top it? Every subsequent release was just average or mediocre.
Inside Story mogs it though.
>>722069905it already got outdone by bowser's inside story years ago. what are you talking about, nigga.
>>722070308>>722070631In what way?
>>722069905>Every subsequent release was just average or mediocreKind of like Superstar Saga
>>722070308Linear as fuck, mario bros are stuck in boring organism world, admit it was your first title from series
>>722070803Gameplay.
>>722070876The first game is much more linear. Why do you think it's not?
>>722070308>>722070631Absurdly overrated. Uninteresting locations, even easier than the previous games, the 2D sections are too basic, the overworld exploration is gimped because Bowser can't even jump, the pacing is extremely lopsided with Bowser being frontloaded and the bros backloaded except there's almost nothing to do for them once they finally get out of Bowser's body, excuse plot that just meanders with random bullshit until it decides to rip Superstar Saga off for the endgame, giant battles barely count as a battle system and are more like setpieces that can only be done one way... And some of these are issues people complain about for Dream Team but ignore in Bowser's Inside Story despite them starting there.
I enjoyed Superstar, Partners In Time and Inside Story. They're all good games and all have their own special feeling.
>>722069905Outside of the painfully slow intro Brothership is objectively superior.
>>722071207Apples and oranges, they have opposite philosophies for most aspects of their game design.
>Played Superstar Saga recently after finally playing Tomato Adventure for the first time.>You could feel Tomato Adventure oozing out of the entire game, particularly with the Bro moves, Fawful, and the way they flow jokes together.
>>722071085I can see your points except "Uninteresting locations", but yeah DT was basically BIS 2.0 and i don't mean this in a good way>t. Partners in time and Copy Flower fag
>>722070946>much moreSay how, it will be funny
>>722071085>the overworld exploration is gimped because Bowser can't even jumpHis charge ability is his jump you mong. It is functionally identical to the bros' spin ability. Did you even play the game?
>>722069905brother ship was such an insanely bad game I had to drop it. I cannot stress enough how autistic I am I NEVER drop games and always see them through to the end. I just couldn’t do it when I had to backtrack for like a 4th time and do that stupid fucking dance mini game for the 20th time
>>722071416Sure, once you answer my question. I did ask first.Go ahead. Don't be scared.
>>722071470The question relates to the first sentence which needs to be explained further. Don't be scared, you already made yourself fool, nothing to lose.
>>722071424Horizontal movement when the game kindly decides to give you initial elevation through sloped terrain doesn't make up for everything in the overworld being a waist-high fence that Bowser can't climb over. Not giving you a regular overworld jump for most of the game in a Mario RPG is retarded.
You can only catch lightning in a bottle once.
>>722071610>He still won't answer my questionWhy not? Don't be scared.Just tell me why you think Superstar Saga is less linear than Bowser's Inside Story. Then I will answer your question.
>>722071747You need to further explain your point of view, but we know why you can't.
>>722072441>He still can't prove his own claims to be trueWhy do you think Superstar Saga is less linear than Bowser's Inside Story?>You need to further explain your POVI haven't given my POV yet. I'm waiting to hear yours first.
>>722072552>I haven't given my POV yet.You literally said what you believe asking your question.
>>722072852I didn't.I just asked you to prove your claims to be true.And you're really scared of doing it, for some reason.
>>722072918You state BiS offers more freedom than SS >>722070946then proceed to say you didn't claim anything. Exceptionally regarded.
>>722069905I've been chasing SOUL like this almost my entire life. This game is what true peak looks like.
>>722073339>You state BiS offers more freedom than SSI literally didn't say that.Why are you so afraid of proving your claims to be true anon? We can't move on until you answer my question.>Why do you think Superstar Saga is less linear than Bowser's Inside Story?Do it in your next reply, or I'll be forced to accept your concession.After you do this, I'll answer any questions you like.
>>722070308based
>>722070308this
Bros Moves were kino and swapping to item attacks was one of the most immense soul losses ever recorded for a series
>>722069905Story and philosophy won everything. Most adventure game out of all alpha dream games.
