To avoid more backtracking, I've seen some people suggest the idea that when Doopliss freaks out after you guess his name correctly, he runs the opposite way into the town. He tries to enter the pipe to escape the town, but it rejects him, and then he is forced to fight you in front of everyone. Then when you beat Doopliss, he gets exposed in front of the entire town as the monster that had been haunting Twilight Town all along.

Expanding upon this, you could fight him in town before he makes an escape attempt, and after beating him he then tries to flee. The pipe rejects him which outs him to Mario's partners, who rejoin his party. Dooplis then uses the Crystal Star for a power boost (possibly something like drawing a new form to fight in), and that leads into stage 2 of the fight, this time with partners restored.

I think I've always liked TTYD a little better than PM64, but after replaying TTYD again recently I'm starting to feel that PM64 is the more replayable of the two. TTYD is driven by its colorful cast, hilarious dialogue, and creative scenarios (like in Chapters 3 & 6) that are great the first time, but less enjoyable on subsequent playthroughs when you already know how the story will turn out. PM64 has those positive qualities as well, but its more driven by its level design. Almost every chapter revolves around venturing into a "dungeon", in which you solve puzzles and find a Star Spirit at the end. It does a beautiful job of mapping classic Mario levels to an RPG setting (grassland, desert, spooky forest, jungle, sky, snow) without making them feel generic. (Sticker Star, in comparison, does a crappy job of that.) TTYD gets wackier with its ideas and scenarios- a battle arena, having your body stolen, battling alongside ghost pirates to fend off moon men- but as a result, a lot of the areas feel more like set pieces for the story instead of actual levels. All that being said, I prefer TTYD's more complex battle system, story, and cast of characters. And despite not liking Chapter 4 as a whole, I really like the vibe of Twilight Town, and the crows might be my favorite NPCs in the whole series.

I disagree, because those "levels" in the original PM feel empty and often generic because they don't make use of set pieces... something ironically Mario Levels make use of a lot. I feel more bored while playing due to the areas being too big at times, the very reason the spin dash exists. I have nothing to look ahead to but battles. This is met with the flaws of the original system and low BP cap.

The sad thing is they could have easily reduced the backtracking into something negligible just by exploring the idea of your new partner opening up new pathways with their ability, or just some minor story thing happening that does it. And they kind of had faintest hint of this with the gate you push then go under with Vivian, or bobbery exploding open pirate's grotto, but those were done so poorly it doesn't really even count. They're better about it with the paper "curses", but partners kinda get shafted. Flurrie is needed to open up 1 passage at a place you were already at, Vivian passes a gate and listens to birds at a place you were already at, bobbery blasts a rock....at a place you were already at. Hell, chapter 1 does it too-use koops to hit a switch at a place you were already at. No real puzzle solving or thought is required for most of it. Just making the map/room layout be more 3-D in some areas (rather than just left to right in a line) would even help break up the monotony some, or at least I think it would. I love the game, and DESPERATELY want the franchise to return to being RPG's, but I don't think I'd have the patience to replay again now that I'm older, which is super sad. And FUCK general white, I say just erase that whole part of the game and make a new one, lol.

Another problem with TTYD, in my opinion, is the flat level design. Every chapter in the original n64 game had split paths going in all 4 cardinal directions. TTYD rarely has paths going north and south, and it gets very old going left and right constantly.

Another problem with TTYD is that it feels like a departure from Paper Mario 64, and it's also unoriginal. It can't decide if it wants to be a official sequel to Paper Mario 64, or a direct rehashing of it, due to the game rehashing many ideas from it.

Very late, but thinking this over with the remake coming, this really isn't true. PM64 does more with depth and having more bigger, open rooms. Hallway rooms are on average deeper. But the 4 cardinal directions is only barely used. Prologue is all hallway rooms, with Goomba Village being a hub with spokes to the house, the little forest you start in, and then the two level directions. Toad Town is a town, but absolutely is why people think there's more 3D than there is. You go through here so much and it very much is the platonic ideal. people are thinking of. Chapter 1 is almost all 2D, with individual rooms having more of a 3D element. There is only two doors that really deal with background/foreground and that's a save block, and the Fuzzie Memory Puzzle. Chapter 2 has the desert, but with that exception is all hallway maps. Chapter 3 has Forever Forest, and the indoor areas. Gold Star. Chapter 4 only has the Train hub. The level spokes off from this hub room, but all those rooms are near exclusively hallways. Chapter 5 has the forest, very 3D. Most of the volcano is hallways. Chapter 6 is one hub area, and then every room is a hallway that ends in a square room. Chapter 7 is basically all hallways, even the town. The only real split is the Snowman room. But this chapter also proves my point. The mirror gimmick of the Palace is depth in hallways, rather than rooms going in all directions. There are the doors in both foreground and background, but it's in service to more mirrored hallways. Chapter 8 is mostly hallways.

I think one of the worst parts about the General White quest is how spread apart the fast travel is. It's great that we have fast travel at all, but it's super annoying to deal with. The pipes are way down at the bottom of the sewers, meaning you have to climb all the way back out when you're done. Glitzville, Twilight Town, and Fahr Outpost don't have fast travel pipes, so you have to travel to different parts of Rogueport to get there. I think having a different pipe for Twilight Town is fine, but I do think Glitzville and Fahr Outpost should've gotten their own pipes. I never really hated General White's quest that much until I tried to help my sister with it on her file a few years ago. I got through all of it, just to die to a Frost Piranha on the way back to Fahr Outpost. It made me mad and I was tired, so I never helped her, and that's where the file sits to this day. My proposal would be to move the pipe room to the top of the sewers. and have the pipes unlock automatically after certain conditions (typically after the chapter ends). Fahr Outpost would have its own pipe, and it would lead directly to the outpost, rather than to the pathway leading up to it. To justify having 2 pipes leading to the same place, the path to the outpost itself could be longer and have numerous puzzles. Make it feel like a real trek to finally get there. And then have a pipe there waiting to be activated, so you never have to deal with that again, unless you want to do a trouble from the trouble center that involves something on that path. Chapter 4 and 5 are too complicated, so there isn't really an easy fix for them. However, I think Chapter 4 would be much better if you could discover new paths on the way to Creepy Steeple. Maybe they open over time as Doopliss runs through them.

I really believe Bug Fables had the best solution by giving you a device that allowed you to teleport to the fast travel room. It would be a non-issue to have the pipe room at the bottom of the sewers in TTYD if Mario could just warp there, but because you have to go down there frequently it gets frustrating.

As someone who makes it his goal to play this game at least once a year, I've come to learn something after playing both Origami King and Bug Fables, and that's TTYD having a very fulfilling atmosphere, but level exploration is not this game's strong suit. It has amazing and unique set pieces, but take set pieces away and every screen in the game (that isn't a town) is just a hall way with the occasional ! Block to hit to progress. Nothing is bad about this, but after playing Origami King and Bug Fables, you realize how much more fun it is to explore those worlds because of how dynamic everything is vs lack luster A to B hallways. Even PM64 felt more fulfilling to explore given how that game utilized unique camera angles and rooms that weren't just a straight line to get where you needed to go (though Chapter 6 is very guilty of that hallway backtracking design and happens to be my least favorite of 64). It wouldn't matter too much in TTYD's case but given how much you need to backtrack in this game, it accentuates how this game's level design is lacking compared both its previous entry and even games that have been inspired by it. This game will forever remain my favorite game of all time, but I'd be silly to say that this game is perfect with no flaws whatsoever and I kinda wish that it wasn't constantly put onto a pedestal especially when trying to bring down future games in the series (specifically Super and Origami King)

The Bub-ulb that wants two Hot-dogs from Glitzville but asks for them one at a time, the guy that makes you count chairs all over the world to make a password, the multiple requests that make you go back and forth to Glitzville even though you can only accept one at a time.

This is a great video. I definitely understand that feeling of how if you have a strong enough attachment to the characters and the narrative that it isn’t hard to forgive a game’s gameplay faults a lot of the time. I think the most clear example of this is Chapter 7 in Super Paper Mario, which is probably my favorite chapter in the whole series because of the great visuals, narrative beats, humor and soundtrack despite the main boss being an absolute joke and the backtracking being honestly at the level of Twilight Trail, if not worse. Like seriously, the second and third levels have incredibly tedious gameplay but I can’t bring myself to dislike them because of all the funny and memorable moments in them. Finding Luigi, fixing the Pure Heart, fighting Bowser, talking to the goofy old hags, fighting the underchomp, watching Peach eat all the apples, seeing the big Nimbi fight, saving all the South Park Canadians that apparently make up the population of heaven, and of course Luvbi’s story. There’s so much story and humor wise that I love even if the level design is legitimately agonizing in parts.

I definitely appreciate you highlighting some of the less egregious examples of TTYD's linearity - Twilight Town and General White get brought up plenty, but I certainly feel it the most in Keelhaul Key. As well as acknowledging both the narrative reasons for the backtracking and the relative rewards for each one, and how the game tends to make up for it. With that said, I do note that most of the criticism for the combat-centric backtracking segments (Boggly, Twilight Trail, Keelhaul) have the main focus being the ability to avoid encounters. Which is strange to me, as encounters are the main meat of an RPG. The reason why games like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest have random encounters is to make dungeons difficult, for players to prepare for long treks where they won't be able to escape; endurance gauntlets, essentially. Would it not stand to reason that these difficult-to-avoid-enemies-in areas would serve the same purpose in TTYD? It's not as if actual dungeons like Pirate's Grotto or Palace of Shadow deviate much from "screen disguised as a hallway". I find this especially pronounced in Twilight Trail, as whilst you do claim that the repetitive enemies discourage party variety, the chapter FORCES party variety and increases difficulty by, at first, removing your partner, and then giving you a new one to figure out on the fly with enemies you're very familiar with. This is compounded by the enemies in Twilight Trail all having exceptionally high attack power, but requiring a turn to charge up, making them much harder to deal with as solo Mario than with a partner to stun them. That's not to say I disagree with you, I find those areas a slog as well, but I don't find them inherently bad design. Rather, I think it's symptomatic of TTYD's general lack of difficulty or approaches in its battle system, making any non-new encounters a slog and making replays basically defined by boss fights. I just intellectually appreciate what Twilight Trail tries, and think that if the backtracking ended after acquiring the letter p, it'd be a fine enough process that creates enough variety in each of its three passes to be worthwhile (rather than the five that are in reality, with three identical journeys with Vivian plastered in there). That and... well, the game seems to think that wasting the player's time is hilarious. Like there are so many times that tasks take needlessly long (discarding the smelly gym shorts for a Trouble comes to mind, as well as the I Love Yous and CLEARLY waking up General White) and the game is like "haha. Isn't it funny how you could be doing something else right now?" It's definitely a meta joke, and... well, I won't lie. When I'm not playing it and am just watching people stream the game for the first time, I find the joke pretty funny in seeing frustration. So I can't entirely blame the developers when I'm getting that same joy. tl;dr, I don't think the backtracking is inherently bad, I think that TTYD is a bad fit FOR the backtracking, but you definitely gave me a lot to think about and there's the same conclusion of "but game really good though" in there. Thanks as always! Your editing demonstrating the rooms and pathing was really slick for this ep, too!

Thanks for the kind words, I always look forward to your well thought out responses! I agree with a lot of your thoughts and something I glossed over in the video, but goes along with a point you made, is that TTYD could have provided players with more enemy variety. I think the game blew its load to early with the Glitz Pitz, because not only is there a ton of enemy variety, but all the battles are unique because of the random stipulations attached to them. Contrast that to Chapter's 4 and 5 where you largely fight the same enemies over and over because of all the backtracking, and it can really make things seem worse than it would have if combat been kept interesting.

Not going to mention the additional backtracking in Chapter 2's boggly tree? Requires you to backtrack to get more and more punies, having to gale force just slows you down more while at least Chapter 4 can be consistently engaging as you're always on the move, and you're borderline required to fight otherwise optional piders so your punies don't always get scared. Agreed with Chapter 5 being mentioned though.

I think that's because the Boogly Tree's back tracking isn't as bad as the prior one. Also the thing with the piders, and using Flurrie's Gale Force is more so a problem of escorting, rather than back tracking. With the punies you do get different pathways, they change how you might go through repeated areas. It really isn't a topic that belongs in a discussion of back tracking.

Funnily enough, I didn't even realize backtracking in this game was an issue until I went on a gamefaq's thread one day where someone brought it up since, outside of the general white quest (which I hated even back when I first played this game as a kid) the rest of the game did such a good job making it enjoyable that I didn't even mind. I think it also helps that I generally come back to this game only occasionally and i'm never doing back to back playthroughs of it. I do agree with PM64 having better pacing though and the criticism's of this games pacing are perfectly valid, there's just a lot of things in this game that help drive the experience for me like the updated combat mechanics (super guarding, stylish moves, the reworked partner system, etc.), the level theming and the almost metroid-like design of getting new paper abilities to explore old areas on top of the hammer and boot upgrades, the general aesthetic and I could go on but this post is long enough and you get my point xD

A very interesting topic, the only bad thing from TTYD. Even so, I'd like to defend Chapter 4's backtracking for the unique circumstances you find yourself in: losing all partners and trying out a new partner. Will be watching the video throughout the day EDIT: Agreed with all your points, I like that you mention Chapter 5's backtracking. I honestly dislike this one more than Chapter 4 because of that annoying room with Piranha Plant enemies and the midair block. It's crazy how the first Paper Mario's map design is much better than TTYD. I think to fix the backtracking they should have: increased Mario's speed, make rooms more spacious instead of wider (all rooms in TTTD are corridors and it pains me to say it), and introduce shortcuts from key locations to Dungeons. For example: add a pipe from Creepy Steeple to Twilight Town accessible with Vivian's ability and you cut out half of the backtracking and you give quick access to the Steeple for sidequests.

maan did i miss out on this video. but i gotta say, with chapter 4 specifically. i think it's the best chapter in the game. very closely followed by chapter 3 before it. when the worst thing about a chapter is the backtracking, you know that the chapter has to be phenomenal, and it is! and here's the reasons why i love it so much. it's one of the few times a game has actually legitimately stumped me with a puzzle. (that sliding wall in the steeple you need to use vivian's ability to get past. it took me a good 20 minutes before i thought of it, since it wouldn't have worked with bow in the previous game.) the meta-breaking fourth wall shattering doopliss is such a highlight. i didn't even notice the missing letter at first, because i thought his name was "Slick" with how often he uses the word. it introduces one of the deepest and best party members in the game with vivian, and really helps flush out her established character. they could have easily gone with another bow, but they didn't. they went with vivian and made her her own character. not just a party member, but a shadow siren who laughs at her trickery and geniunely wants to help mario, simply because he was nice to her, even while he was suffering. this also helps establish mario's character as well, being a guy who was willing to help his enemy find an item meant to kill him, while he was already in his own pickle with doopliss. he could have easily blown her off and refused to help, but no. instead he went out of his way to help her. giving a SILENT PROTAGONIST some character. the atomic Boo boss fight is always a fun fight, and one of the hidden highlights of the chapter. the enemies can be annoying, but that's just more excuse to try out vivan's kickass abilities in battle and get used to her timing. i'd rather have that as a new player than have a straight shot to the steeple with no enemies until we got to doopliss. just imagine not having the timing down for vivian's attacks and just getting thrown into a boss fight. that would suck even more imo. and finally. Doopliss' boss fight. dear GOD that twist is just amazing. the fake out ending from the first fight, leading to the main meat of the chapter's story, all of it leading up to a confrontation with yourself and your own party. now you know what it's like for all those goombas and clefts that you've been stomping up to this point. and the fight can be tough if you decide to play fair and take out the partners first. heck, he could be stronger than you if you went with a full badge and fp build, having 40 HP, and 4 attack, alongside the party members you upgraded. meanwhile, you're stuck with an base vivian.

You get a new partner, learn more about the Sirens, get use use Veil to get some great dialogue and get even more layers out of what's probably the coolest town, another Chest Power-Up, the Steeple itself is a great mini-dungeon, getting to have a BOSS FIGHT WITH YOUR OWN PARTNERS which is a personal highlight of the game to me, and since the entire focus was Vivian warming up to Mario enough to eventually betray her sisters, the length felt like a necessary evil. If it all were say, five screens like the Flurry backtracking, it'd give the vibe of "Oh hey it's been ten minutes, you're awesome I'm going to abandon my entire old life." That is NOT SAYING the absurd amount of screens between Twilight Town and the Steeple are justified, but if I had to pick a poison, I'd prefer the path be too long, rather than too short. However, I find backtracking therapeutic, and enjoy Morrowind and Donkey Kong 64 immensely, so my opinions can definitely be discarded by a majority of peeps.

You know, I realized a few years ago that my recollections from playing TTYD when I was younger weren't as glowing as they were for many of my peers, and I think this might be why. I'd need to sit and think about certain story beats or interludes before I can remember them, but I could IMMEDIATELY recall virtually every instance of backtracking you cite, in detail (e.g., the cliff on Keelhaul Key I'd jump off of just to try to shave a couple seconds off the backtracking time). I remember Hooktail Castle more for its backtracking side quests than I do my first run through. I remember my annoyance with trying to set up fast traversal through an area I've already been through only to accidentally run into or fall onto a particular enemy, more clearly than I remember the payoff for those trips. I guess I have an easier time recalling my frustrations with the game than its high points on some level, which might be why I'm so instinctively indifferent to TTYD when someone brings it up with me.

Personally I think backtracking is better defined as just any time you must retread previously explored areas for a meaningful amount of time. (For example something that’s only one or two screens down isn’t particularly long, so it wouldn’t really be substantial enough for me to consider it backtracking)

I felt this even playing it at the time. Most of TTYD feels like Flower Fields from PM64 - left-to-right movement mixed with "get the thing from here and go back to here"-style progression. Most other places in PM64 were actually big, like Dry Dry Desert and the Jade Jungle, instead of being the same 3/4 screens traversed 2/3 times. PM64 locations covered so much more area despite a much more limited console. The funny thing is that they mostly got it right in the hub, particularly the Rogueport Sewers. Every chapter and upgrade lets you go somewhere new or a little deeper, the enemies get replaced with stronger ones. You have to do it a lot but at least there's always a new detail or route to see. But for some reason it's only the hub world.

I replayed this game recently and yeah.... man it has a lot of issues. To the extent if they ever re-release this game, a lot of new players will probably dislike it due to the untouchable reputation it has and the expectations that come with that. A lot of the game is going back and forth the same linear corridor map design. The issue is, this is a goood chunk of the game. This isn’t as big a problem when going in blind because you’re atleast incentivised to do this to reveal more of the story which is entertaining. Remove that factor and TTYD has very simple map design and excessive back tracking. I actually don’t find it very fun to replay at all. Chapter 3 for instance, if you remove the mystery, is just a series of a handful of very easy fights dragged out. The train mystery is just walking back and forth talking to people with barely any combat or gameplay outside of talking to people. And Twilight Town goes without saying. The game relies so much on the narrative above gameplay. The backtracking is even worse if you’re doing all the side quests as you’re often requested to backtrack areas you’ve already gone back and forth 5 times already. I genuinely think chapter 1 is the best designed one in the game because you’re constantly moving forward as the narrative unfolds. Which makes it fun to replay.

The funny thing is, even though I agree with you that chapter 4's backtracking is pretty bad, it's probably still my favorite chapter in the game because of the writing and character development. It's where Vivian, my favorite party member for the same reasons, joins our team. The events with Dupliss are interesting, even if they don't have the same impact on repeat playthroughs. I really do like chapter 4, but I have to admit that it's almost entirely carried by the writing and not the gameplay.

TTYD is in my top five games of all time, but the backtracking is impossible to ignore. As someone who's played the game a million times, I can say it does not get less annoying each time. I'm a completionist, too, so adding in Goldbob's trouble, which is just the General White Tour 2.0, is further insult. It would've at least been easier if more blue pipes were available. I can understand why Glitzville doesn't have one, but what about Creepy Steeple? Fahr Outpost? I truly do adore this game, but every time, I wonder what the hell the devs were thinking. It's been almost two decades, and I still haven't figured it out.

To be fair there backtracking on Chapter 1 too. Much less noticable as it's more well-hidden due to being early on i guess but the fact that Hooktail's castle is on the first room and you have go through like 6 rooms and a town to get an item and then backtrack your way to that first room really describes the game design around this game. Chapter 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7 all do this. The only exceptions being 3 being an Arena and 8 surprisely pretty much having none. Thankfully the remake does fix a few backtracking mainly the White General and only having to backtrack once in Chapter 4 instead of twice (once from returning to the town to get Vivian and once after getting the letter "p") and adding a spring in Chapter 5 to slightly reduce the backtracking but you still got to do the Minimum 3 times. Thats why switch version is my favorite and definitive edition.

When you first go through the whole chapter, you're powerful and breeze through the battles ahead but on the way back as shadow mario you're much weaker, no more partners only you... returning with Vivian to get the "p" is to get you familiar with her abilities since you can only use her vs doopliss later on. the narrow paths are key to this since they wanted to ensure encounters. Just the last journey back to doopliss is not required anymore but it's needed to get to the boss room I guess

It’s also worth mentioning that not only are the enemies in chapter 4 hard to avoid, there’s also a huge difficulty spike because you’re missing 1 of your 2 actions in a turn! In a recent play through I did, the backtracking was the only time I game over’d, since I had no partners to help me. And you do sort of use Vivian on the way to the steeple and back, since most enemies have “charge” which is the good time to use her veil ability. But she also sucks against the hyper clefts so that not great. (I 100% agree with the comment that said you should’ve been able to use Vivian as a way to get to the steeple faster somehow) Also on the general white hunt, the areas you visit are in a crappy order so you can’t stay in the blue pipe rooms and travel to the towns quickly… you have to awkwardly go to twilight town (and glitzville in the trouble I think) which you can’t use a blue pipe for. But considering how the BACKTRACKING is one of its only real things people can find to criticize the game with, I think that shows how great this game is. ❤

Now that I think about it this game is yet another example of the Japanese having a weird obsession with the moon in their fictional stories/legends (from Kaguya Hime onwards) In their mythology the moon is often that place that hides deep secrets, and is inhabited (by something not quite human). The hero can go there like some greek heroes could go to the underworld. There is nothing of the sort in western mythology (the moon turns some people into werewolves or influences magic rituals etc but it's not a "place" per se) which is extremely interesting. It's such a "Japanese thing". And you can see it in so many games, from Zelda to Final Fantasy etc

I always saw chapter 4 as a design oversight, as it could easily be fixed by a simple issue. The player has a reason to the first couple of times, even when getting Vivian you're using her ability to access a different part of the dungeon (going under the well) however once you get into the room with the parrot when he gets startled he drops a switch and it causes and earthquake. You grab the letter P and when you head out the door a pipe appears right beside the door and said pipe would lead to the Twilight Trail entrance. Then once Doopliss heads back to the steeple you just take the pipe back and go to the top of the steeple, issue completely solved as I took away having to backtrack two more times (which were the only times it didn't feel needed)

I can actually kind of excuse the General White quest of all things. Yes, you have to travel to every single previous area only to return where you started, but as it's close to endgame I mainly see it as a recap. If you know what you're doing you can complete it in about 10 minutes. Did it need to be here? No, but I can excuse reuse of assets to an extent if it's done to recap the adventure before the game ends. The wedding ring quest was a bigger slap in the face if I'm being honest. With the exception of Chapter 4 and MAYBE 5 it was one of the only instances where I really felt like the game was wasting my time.

8:36 - the difficulty of avoiding combat is the entire point of why Chapter 4 works IMO. Your first time through the area is a breeze. Then you're forced to go through it without party members and each battle is suddenly more challenging and time consuming. It highlights to the player how vulnerable they've become without their friends to back them up. Then, on your next pass through, you go through with Vivian, a brand new party member and the combat encounters serve as an opportunity for the player to practice her abilities before the upcoming boss fight. The majority of TTYD's backtracking is like this. The return trip is often recontextualized for the player, either by a new partner, a new ability, a new goal, or just a new visual look like the sunset filter on the train, or the presense of Flavio. This makes it fresh for the player to go through the same rooms, and it's why I think TTYD's backtracking is an overhated issue. Sometimes it is excessive. The final trip to town and back in Chapter 4 is an example. Ideally in that case, the player could have used Vivian's abilities to open some sort of shortcut between the town and the steeple so that once you get the letter P, you don't have to make another set of trips. But these sorts of moments are the exception rather than the rule. Most of the backtracking is kept interesting IMO.

I didn't really see backtracking as a big deal back then, to me it felt as a way of extending exploration a bit to avoid every level becoming a flat linear progression, I do think that levels aren't just as ample as they were in PM64 but each one of them has their own charm and backtracking during sidequesting helps you discover and appreciate some few details you inevitably miss out by being too inmersed on the main quest. Two things I'll never stop hating, the excess express boss and the x yux on the moon that stunlocks you to death.

If you didn't realize you need to bring them *two* hot dogs it's actually almost parodically absurd given the sheer distances involved. Like, every single instance of it in the story had at least a reasonable justification, and while they could get time consuming and annoying they didn't really feel as much like an outright slap in the face as having to fly to the floating city (which I don't think when the side quest unlocks you can take a blue pipe there? I forget if there even is one.), come straight back, and then be told you have to go again just to get a second hot dog, before coming back and being sent off to get a whole other item entirely. Knowing what you're doing and planning properly ahead of time can engate this, but it does end up just feeling rather egregious because you can literally get sent to do the same fairly arduous task twice with no justification just to be sent off to do a THIRD task and backtrack more.

Chapter 4 was very painful, especially when I missed things and had to do extra slogs through the forest. At one point I got the letter/character in the chest, but didn't think to eaves drop on the Parrot. By the time I got back to the town, I figured out what I needed to do, but instead of doing a 2-way slog through the forest, again, I just went on youtube to see what the Parrot said. You also hit the nail on the head with Ch 3 Vs Ch 4 "avoiding enemies" problems. The Ms Mouse quest was also bad because I went to the castle 3 separate times. Once I had no clue where it was, but suspected it could be behind the cracked wall, 2nd time I came back with bombery and didn't find it, 3rd after checking a guide, I found out I had to blow on one area of the huge boss room...all for the worst ally in the game... Unfortunately when I got to Chapter 6, I just decided to search for a long play and see someone else go through the game, without making the same mistakes/extra-backtracks I did. Unfortunately I don't have much time anymore. I started TTYD at the beginning of the year and I want to do other things.

When I was a child, I only got very limited amounts of time to play video games; my parents' rules were that we could only play on the final three days of the week, only when school, homework, and chores were done, and as long as we didn't have some other obligation during those times. Oh, and for several years, my parents set the limitation of only letting my siblings and me play in 20-minute turns, if the game was single-player. They later raised that to a 30-minute limit, but still, it severely limited progress I made in games. One small benefit to these restrictions, though, is that my experience with each game --- especially RPGs --- was spread out, and lingered with me. (I mean, I can still picture in my mind, and mentally navigate the space, of entire stages of Banjo-Kazooie, for instance, because it took over a year before I completed the game. The time I spent not playing games during the week, but wishing I could, led to me reflecting on them so much that I started memorizing them.) Each time I got to turn on a game and visit the world, it felt like I was returning to a place where I was happy. Grinding, backtracking, and fetch quests in games didn't feel so tedious to me; and frustrating bosses or obstacles didn't bother me all that much, because I was always forced to take time off between each session. Now, in this game, even I found the General White quest tedious. But since I would go for such long periods of time not being able to visit the game's world, it was kind of comforting when I got the excuse to revisit parts of the world I'd visited earlier, and say hi to characters in those places. Sure, it's a chore, but given the way my gameplay experience went, it was an enjoyable chore for me. Of course, at this point of my life, since my play sessions of RPGs tend to be longer, grinding and backtracking have come to frustrate me more. (The entire second half of Bravely Default... heh. If you've played the game, I don't even need to say anything. Just hear the title, and you know what I'm talking about.) So, I have a strange sort of fondness for the backtracking in games like The Thousand-Year Door. Kind of a nice thing to reminisce on.

Having played TTYD for the first time in 2022, without hindsight or nostalgia, I found the game highly enjoyable but very held back because of the amount of backtracking and the varying quality of / payoff for it. Thanks for breaking down this issue that often gets overlooked in many discussions of this game

I love this game to hell and back but chapters 4 and 5 have the worst case of, "start at this side of the map so that you can go to the other end of the map only to go back because we unlocked a trigger that gives you the thing you need where you started and then go back to the other end of the map to progress."

Very good video, and I agree. The backtracking is a pretty big issue. But when discussing the game, I tend to gloss over the backtracking because the rest of the game overall is good enough to make up for it, IMO. That said, you definitely should've had a spoiler warning for this video. Showing the final boss? Really? =P

Related is something this game does several times that I can remember at least happening in the sewers: Having something gated by two progressions when one is earlier than the other. There's the room with the spikes in the floor that require Vivian to complete... but also require Paper Thin to get into. You get Paper Thin and go through the bars thinking there might be something cool inside... but it's an unsolvable problem at that point. Why even have the bars at all to stop you if they're not the ultimate progression gate keeping you from the reward? There's another room that requires the Paper Boat to get to, that has a shine sprite that requires the Spring Jump. This is a little less egregious as it has two other shine sprites you can get immediately, but again it's an item that's hidden behind two *separate* character progressions. Necessitating backtracking if you attempt it before you have both.

As someone's who played only the remake, there's an exploit I used to get all 3 Shine Sprites right away. The trick is to get on top of one of the Shine Sprite boxes and hammer the highest one, then get the other two as normal to get all 3 (I think you have to do the Super Hammer trick to make it work?) Was that exploit possible in the original, btw?

Personally I found the backtracking in Chapter 5 to be much worse than Chapter 4. This is probably because I've gotten pretty good at making the trip in Chapter 4 quickly, and dodging most of those enemies, but after replaying it I always think "hey, that wasn't as bad as I remember" after finishing the backtracking. One part you glossed over in Chapter 4's favour was how when you return to Twilight Town in your shadow form, all of the townsfolk have new, interesting dialogue. It makes it feel worth it; time has passed, things have changed, you're different, and there's a reward for all the backtracking in this. Maybe it's not as rewarding on subsequent playthroughs when you're expecting it, but it's still considerable. Chapter 5 doesn't have any of this, including much more tedious and difficult to avoid encounters. On top of this, Chapter 5 being directly after Chapter 4 makes the backtracking in Chapter 5 feel much worse. It's backtracking after backtracking, and you're going to be fatigued from backtracking after Chapter 4, while going into Chapter 4 you're going to be fresh, and the notion won't hit as hard. Chapter 4 backtracking is still egregious, but Chapter 5 just feels worse. Thanks for the video!

The way I see backtracking is just an attempt from the game to get you to gain levels at a pace where you wouldn't have much of a reason to grind for levels on a specific spot to get ready enough for the boss of each chapter. And trust me, I've been killing anything and everything that appears on-screen so far and already well prepared to shill even more stuff. For more tedious that it might be, EXP is EXP. And thus, cannot be ignored. (Even when in most cases enemies just drop 1 Star Point per battle since you're going through previous areas.)

Seeing complaints laid out like this, with a fair share of the complaints being, "I had to enter combat so many times", really makes me wonder why people won't give games like Origami King a chance, when it has some of the best level design, best dialogue, and best characters SINCE SPM and TTYD. It's clear that even TTYD's combat can become tedious once subjected to it too many times, and if that's the ONLY defining difference between old Paper Mario, and new Paper Mario... I guess I just wish more people would give it a fair shake! There's a lot to love in TOK, hope more fans of the classics get to see that one day.

Personally, I didn't try Origami King because Bug Fables came out around the same time and I chose to play that instead, but I do want to give it a shot eventually. But I think the complaints in the video were more around the level structure and progression than the combat. Combat is really fun, but not when you're forced to refight the same enemies over and over again due to poor design. *coughbreathofthewildcough*
@iantaakalla8180
@iantaakalla8180 Жыл бұрын
Also, The Origami King still does not solve any of those problems in terms of battles. Yes, you never backtrack in The Origami King, but the battles are still stymied because the puzzle ring mechanic either is frustrating or is the same, and then attacks are useless or perfunctory. There are surprisingly few enemies as well, so that is not fixed. So if your complaint is that backtracking makes the game feel bad in TTYD, going to The Origami King literally only fixes the backtracking.

@@MrDrBoi Yeah I coulda worded some stuff better. I think my thought was that, if you were to view combat in Origami King and TTYD in a similar vein, that it's fun for a bit but eventually you might want to avoid enemies, then TOK begins to differentiate itself from TTYD by having level structure and progression that's both fun and varied, and rewarding in that it's always pushing it's dialogue and characters forward. And at THAT point, TOK might be worth checking out for those that simply love the world Paper Mario brings, because it lacks some of the iffy level design choices found more often in Sticker Star, and occasionally in Color Splash. Sorry that kinda dereailed your OG point though!

Hey MrDrBoi I was wondering what is your opinion on the backtracking in Chapter 1 in TTYD? I’m mainly referring to the part where you must backtrack all the way left several screens from Shhwonk Fortress to the very first screen of Petal Meadows with the Sun and Moon Stone to unlock the pipe to Hooktail Castle. Also in Hooktail Castle when you have to backtrack a screen or two for a key immediately after getting the paper-thin curse ability - So easy to forget about that because the black chest is right at a dead end.

I will say, as much as I understand people's hatred of this game's backtracking and I myself at times find it to be a little annoying, it actually doesn't bother me too much. I spent my whole life growing up in a countryside home where commerce is always a 20 minute drive away, so I'm used to spending a lot of time travelling just to get from home to church, get groceries, or whatever, and then drive just as long all the way back. Sometimes in life we do run into slogs where all we're doing is going from one place to another and wish we could get there much more quickly to save our time. And, while sure, it is a bit annoying to have to deal with in a video game, at least in TTYD it's justifiable, because the story clearly comes first, and sometimes it can't be told in the same way without making some kind of sacrifice. If there's anything I wish was different, it would be that there's a faster way to get to Creepy Steeple since it is admittedly pretty annoying to have to get from one place to the other, especially with how unfun the whole journey is. But imagine if that trek hadn't been there, just for a moment. The impact that that chapter has in the game probably wouldn't be quite as impactful. Another person on this comments section mentioned that having the final Doopliss fight take place in town instead of the Steeple is a good idea, and they explain why pretty well. I think that definitely is one fix on the chapter that would make it about perfect. But, yeah, sometimes backtracking, especially in a game like this, can't always be helped, because it's a necessary evil for this kind of game. A couple more points I want to bring up: Chapter six is probably my favorite chapter in the game, and I feel like MrDrBoi explained why very well. Personally, I don't call what this game has backtracking. I don't know what I'd call it, but, instead of thinking of it as backtracking, I more like to think about it as how one lives in real life. Real life constantly has backtracking, going through the same routine every day, going to the same places all the time. And yet, while sometimes we might get tired of it, we also live with it, because we're creatures of habit. And it isn't possible to live with constant changes happening. Even if one moves a lot, eventually they'll get used to that, too. So, moving around between coaches on a train, especially for just one chapter, is not a problem at all, because it's reflective of how we walk around in the same environments all the time (plus I'm a sucker for train stories, anyway! ;) ). The last thing I want to bring up is chapter seven. I'm pretty sure I understand why the General White hunt is there. Some developer must've thought it was a good idea to send the player through a rabbit hole of returning to all the previous chapters in the game so they can reflect on where all they've been and how far they've come throughout the entire game up to this point. It makes sense, because you're almost at the end of the game. And yet, while I can understand why it's there, because I love going over things from my past and seeing where it's gotten me over all the years I've lived, if they were going to do that in this game, there's probably a much better way of going about it. I mean, yes, again, the cannon blast to the moon probably wouldn't be quite as impactful if we cut it down too much, what I think they could've done at the very least is make a quicker way to get straight to and from Fahr Outpost, since those enemies in between are annoying to have to deal with all the time. Heck, they actually come back once you leave town, which is annoying because both the path leading into town and the town itself are considered the same place. At least don't make us have to fight them again on our way back to Rogueport Sewers! Sheesh! I also like what MrDrBoi said about things not changing in any of the places since you last visited them. I mean, sure, this game doesn't have to go to the likes of a Zelda game where things have completely changed, like the different times in OoT or the time gap and events between BotW and TotK. But I'd suppose maybe some kind of small progression just to show you that each of the different places have grown since your visit would've been nice, like maybe the Punies making some kind of addition to their tree or the Twilight Town dwellers making a statue of Mario in the middle of their square would've been nice. I would liked to have seen how much things would've expanded on Keelhaul Key! There's a lot of potential there! But yeah, I wrote down a pretty long comment reflecting on all this. I don't know if anyone's taking the time to read this (if you did, thanks!), but hopefully I made my point. This is one of my favorite games, and, while I'll admit it's not perfect, it is definitely well worth playing as it is. And I hope Nintendo and Intelligent Systems consider remaking it for the Switch or whatever system Nintendo has next, with some fixes. Because, man, does it deserve some attention!

Oh how I wish the scenario with Doopliss only had him ambush you once by the town, take Vivian with you, and have him already back at the Steeple for when you get the "P" Letter. Keelhaul Key's 3-layer room is annoying; perhaps Bobbery or Flavio creating a major change to it on a revisit would've helped. General White should have been optional content; just have Goldbob be the endorsement needed to launch the cannon. That's about all the trimming I would like.

After over a decade, I finally revisited this game by having my partner, who is a bit newer to video games, play it. I had only ever played a single time in the past, so the backtracking was something that I had completely glossed over in my playthrough as a kid, and it annoyed me just watching her struggle to get through places like the Twilight Woods not only once, but repeatedly. The writing and characters are pretty phenomenal, and helps TTYD really stand out even as an older title, but my perception of it has definitely soured a little after this run. The only things I remembered about Keelhaul Key were Bobbery joining your team after needing some cola, and that there was a ghost skeleton boss fight, but not the wife's letter or the ship battle. Just wanted to throw in my two cents about that...

Even though Chapter 6 does its backtracking pretty well, the chapter as a whole is not fun for me on repeated playthroughs. I already remember the mystery so it's no fun to go through all the steps again. Especially when I think I'm supposed to be doing one thing, but I'm actually supposed to do another thing first. I hated Riverside Station as a kid because I preferred the story of the train, and the enemy encounters were really difficult to me. But nowadays, I really look forward to the station as it's a breath of fresh air compared to the monotonous mystery solving on the train. Really great chapter on a first playthrough, but it's just not that fun when you return to the game already knowing what's going on.
