>has no off-beat world or side characters like SMRPG or M&Lwhy do people like this crypto-mandate shit again?
>>727709660It's okay to admit that this game filtered you OP
>>727709660What makes Paper Mario 64 different from the other NSMB-esque games in the franchise is that it did a straight forward Mario story in the best way possible.Peach gets kidnapped in a way that doesn't make her look pathetic, Bowser's plan was very good.Basic locations like the grassland and desert had an actual effort to have some lore going on.The game is basic Mario fleshed out, nearly what I wish the movie had been.The only downside I see is that Mario himself is a blank character and Luigi is just a side NPC.
>>727709660When you hit an enemy it actually feels like it
>>727709660what the fuck are you on about?
>>727709660Contrarianism. TTYD is better in every way.
>>727710697The level design and pacing in TTYD is abysmal compared to 64
>>727709660>no off-beat worldMost Mario games don't even take place in the Mushroom Kingdom. People treat MK as some overdone location but we have never actually explored the kingdom in a 3D game.64 doesn't count since those are painting worlds created by Bowser and Odyssey doesn't count since that is one post-game level.Give me a 3D Mario game fully set in the MK while still having charming yet familiar locations like Paper Mario 64 did.
>>727711452>level designboth games are walk to the right or walk down and then to the right>pacingthe first game runs at 30 fps, makes you go the entire first chapter without being able to do action commands, locks partner upgrades behind story progression and has barely any unique badges so you just use the same 3 moves the whole game.i'd rather walk to the left sometimes (with boosted yoshi speed) then deal with this, I like both games though
>>727709660This game is fucking perfect. It's insane that the N64 was able to produce two of the greatest games of all time on a console that did so poorly.
>>727710697TTYD is so fucking slow. It's such a fucking slog.
>>727710697Bandwagoner. 64 is better.
