[@willphoenix5464]

[@hunbi1875]

Why would Mr. L be a skin for a character that he has nothing to do with? He should be his own character

[@gustavoduarte3507]

You could say that to Galacta Knight too, but he's a Meta Knight skin, so yeah since Piranha Plant got a TTYD reference in it's moveset, Mr L needs to be Luigi's skin in the game.

[@TheRealChrisTDH]

*Cries in Gooigi*

[@PussPussGaming]

Y’all need to go play Project M then. They have Mr. L as a costume for Luigi (even though they look nothing alike what a weird move) along with team color versions. It’s super sick.

[@sarafontanini7051]

there actually is at least ONE reason to play as other characters: they have unique dialogue for cutscenes, while mario is a silent protagonist.

[@mrjohnful]

and they also are important for puzzles

[@thecrazedpotatoman]

Plus if you like playing one of the characters and don't mind switching for puzzles only, you can do that too.

[@cheetoes3961]

@@thecrazedpotatoman it also felt fast enough to switch and do a puzzle and not really notice you had to switch

[@BassiKun99]

Yeah, one of the reasons why I replay so much is to see how the dialogue differenciates depending on who you are controlling at the time. While this is nothing new, in the previous games the partners did the talking and the other characters didn't usually directly address them, in SPM however, most of the NPC dialogue changes depending on who you have out, which is unique attention to detail.

[@BassiKun99]

@Charlotte Banister I don't think Tippi's dialogue is bad per se, but I prefer to see Peach or Bowser commenting on the scene with their unique dialogue rather than have someone do the talking for Mario.

[@qblanson17]

It really bothers me that we never learn Mr. L's secret identity. He just dies and he's never heard from again

[@theclockman]

Yeah smh maybe his name was linguini idk

[@MaximumRK]

Of course he’s Luigi.

[@_-insertname-_]

Also fun fact: apparently a lot of the characters in SPM are “blocky“ and geometrical in reference to computers and digital stuff in general. That’s also why Mario‘s turn-3D-ability, when used, looks like someone selecting multiple files on a windows desktop with the mouse. So basically the design “theme“ is analog (paper) vs digital (computer stuff).

[@shyguyrocks1]

I also figured they were blocky because in mathematics, dimensions are represented most typically in square, cubed, or tessarect (hope I spelled it right) form

[@yoshui]

When entering a chapter for the first time, the scenery is drawn like you would draw on a computer. I really like this.

"When you finish the game, you just forget about all the mediocrity." I... Wow. It is spot on, isn't it. Super Paper Mario is indeed my favorite one of the bunch, but I actually forgot about the dubious game design. To be fair though, I personally love the resetti like please spam. It isn't so far from the literal hundred "I love you" text bubble in Thousand Years Door. Oh also, I really, *really* love Mimi's mansion concept. The ruppee grinding always bring me joy.

[@Redpoppy80]

I found the 100 "I Love You"s funny but I hated the repeating please's because the game doesn't tell you in any way that you have to repeat it so it is far too easy to move on and then get stuck until 2 hours pass.

[@zjzr08]

that reminds me of sonic adventure 2.

[@largebeefis4951]

This game is incredible. I only really played this game when I was about 5, back when it came out, but I remember loving the story, loving the gameplay, solving puzzles with the help of my sister who is brighter when it comes to puzzles. I absolutely loved the looming doom of the black hole, and my god there were so many memories when I went back to it. It was like going through your old Minecraft worlds on the xbox 360, each building and each area has memories tied to it. Im going back to TTYD and replaying that, so far its as good as I remember, but I dont think it will be quite as good as going back to SPM.

[@degozaru9196]

That OST man. So many themes I always go back to, not just for nostalgia or for it actually being jams (which they absolutely are), but because of the genuine emotions a lot of a the music was able to bring out, even listening to it outside the games context.

[@flarmie]

tippi's backstory is good but as a character she's pretty nothing

[@someguy764]

@The Good Demon to be honest she felt rather... bland, i could at least identify a personality in kersti (even if it wasn't a good one), huey and olivia. She comes across as your typical mysterious character, and the only reason i do remember her is because no other character in the series is similar to her

[@johntastisk4200]

I think Tippi's biggest flaw is in her design. She isn't very emotive and she isn't really meant to be a comedic character. So there are times where she can feel bland. But her character really starts shining from when you rescue her in chapter 3 and after chapter 6, as she slowly regains her memories and is more open to the gang.

[@michia3765]

@@johntastisk4200 I agree with you! She actually has personality and actually some funny moments even though she isn't comedy relate (I will never forget how she always roasted some of the enemies xD) But yeah, her design isn't expressive with makes her unemotive especially compared to the other partners in the other Paper Mario games.

Yeah Nintendo nowadays always try to experiment with its series sadly

[@WelkinTheItalianDude]

The story, characters and settings in my opinion are good. I especially liked the fact you can get bad endings by...not wanting to save the world, or doing stupid things. This game straight up fought the "but thou must" trope to the bitter end. It lost because a game ending with a main protagonist denying breathing support in a vacuum would be silly, but it tried, damn it.

[@RacingSnails64]

i remember Tippi basically calling Mario stupid and ridiculous if you don't wear the space helmet. love her to bits 😂😂

[@runningoncylinders3829]

Look, I understand people missing a traditional rpg battle formula and seeing this game as the start of a slippery slope, but this is by far me and my siblings' fav Paper Mario game (and one of our favorite Mario games ever). The story is amazing (I'd fawn over the backstory build-up and Dimentio, but you said it, not me), the gameplay is still fun (like Mario Bros 2, but with rpg items), and and it's an integral part of our childhoods. 10/10 would recommend

[@jetring2328]

Here is why this one is my favorite: The gameplay is pretty good in my opinion, I really like the combination of RPG stats and platforming The enemies and NPC’s are all super unique and there is only 1 toad in the game! The soundtrack is phenomenal and easily the best in the series with bangers like the ultimate show The story is also at its best with a story so complex, it made Miyamoto not want a story in the next entry The antagonist has an actually goal that isn’t world domination, where he wants to end all worlds by destroying them because the world took his loved one ( which is your companion ) so the main antagonist basically wants to commit suicide and take everything out with him And the characters are super likeable like Luigi who is at his best in the paper Mario franchise as he is an antagonist for one part of the game, and a playable character in the other, O’chunks and Mimi with their weird yet charming personalities, Dimentio the minion that you get pretty weird vibes from until you discover he is the surprise villain. And much more! I really recommend this game and I’m super excited for oragami king! Anyways thanks for reading!

[@Dorian_Scott]

I agree with you for the most part, but I personally don't find the music to be as excellent like you proclaimed it to be. It's not a *bad* soundtrack, but it pales in comparison to the other Paper Mario games.

Whenever i see this game, i can't help but think of Zelda 2 The Adventure of Link, it may just be the whole factor of being a platformer with RPG elements, and i know they're very different, but there's also a lot that Super Paper Mario takes from that game.

[@mantamariana64]

Agree with that comparison, but I feel like this game also has correlation with Metroid Fusion and Sonic Adventure 2. For Fusion, it was a game that came after what was considered a masterpiece that did something totally different. For SA2, it’s reputation, it’s either considered the last good one or the first bad one.

Funny story, When I was 10 or so, because I was a big Mario fan, I got this game as a present since the game cover had Mario and friends on it. I was super excited because I got a new Mario game for my Wii. Excited, I turned on the Wii, put the game disk in and started playing the game. All good an dandy until I realized... I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND ANY WORD IN THE GAME! That was because the game I got was actually on ENGLISH, and back then I didn't know english (I'm from south America). So, there I was, playing Super Paper Mario, a Story based game, in a language I didn't understand. But since I was a child (a stupid one I tell you), I still played the game. So I kept playing, roadblock after roadblock, part of the game I couldn't get through because I didn't know english. I literaly used a english dictionary in one part! (When the Hammer Thingy asked a question about what word I like or something in the prehistoric chapter). Day passed, Week passed, until I finally BEAT THE GAME. I WAS SUPER HAPPY! I didn't understand why the Bad Guy with a Hat and the Butterfly Thingy was left behind to die but I certainly didn't care. It may be an exaggeration but I say that was one of the acomplishment in my life. In the end, I may have struggled with this game, but it's still one of my favourite game, and I still get salty when someone talk bad about it (even though they may be right).

I liked Super Paper Mario, it was a game where it actually made me feel at times (Lost Odyssey being another notable one for the feels), it knew how to balance the drama with the funny and the gameplay itself was varied enough to keep things interesting. The game I felt was a good balance between easy/sorta hard (never did beat the flopside pit of 100 trials, I just couldn't stand doing it twice) and the worlds were interesting. Honestly a SPM 2 would've been much more welcome than Sticker Star or Color Splash.

[@nitroturbo7869]

The end of Flopside's 100 trials ends with a boss fight against shadowy versions of the 4 playable characters. Pretty cool, but could only beat it by stocking up on literally all the best heals in the game. They do 20 damage per hit, and I think Bowser does 40. Ouch.

[@MunthApollo]

"The game is pretty easy." *Weeping* I never got past the last level. I kept running out of lives in the last boss battle and gave up... I've never been much of a gamer. Super Paper Mario has left a strange, yet profound impact on me as an adult, though it's been years since I've played it. When exploring Flipside and Flopside, I felt like I was in an ancient, mysterious place. There were random nooks and crannies to explore, where you could find hidden items. I even found a secret pixi whose purpose I never discovered... >:( The game does a good job of making it appear as though there is a lot of lore, maybe more than there really is. One aspect of the game, I don't remember exactly, involves locating members of an ancient tribe, that was cool. I don't know how to describe the feeling this game gave me, "mystery and magic" are two words that come to mind though. I've been chasing that feeling ever since. I just got done playing the game Gris and it gave me a similar feeling, due in part to the geometric art style and level design, but also the fact that the world felt ancient. I think a key thing in what makes a game good, might be how it makes you feel. But then again, Gris was the first video game I've played in years so I don't know much about games...

Its a wonderful game with a heartbreaking story, has moments that make you cry, laugh or say awww (when the fish in the suburbs has little fishes hahaha) and filled with awesome characters, plus the OST is top tier. Collecting the recipes and the stickers was fun as hell. Truly a masterpiece, the older games of the franchise look as good as SPM or more, but this one has a special place on my heart.

Despite always being a big fan of a lot of Nintendo big franchises I haven't owned a single Nintendo system since the Game Cube. So I have really been missing out on a lot of great games. At least thanks to Emulation I have been able to play all of the NDS titles I was dying to play. And thanks to the Stimulus Check I got I decided to buy a N2DS XL so that I can play the 3DS games I have been dying to play. Bought the 4 games I have most wanted to play which are Pokemon X and Sun as always been a huge Pokemon fan so it's been killing me that I haven't been able to play a single title since Black 2. Also bought Link Between Worlds being a big Zelda fan. And then Fire Emblem Fates. Was thinking about buying Sticker Star despite some saying it's terrible but others have said it's at least a solid game not bad but not great. And it only costs like $10 now so I might do it. Although I might buy some other Mario related 3DS title like Super Mario 3d land or Poochy and Yoshi's Woolly World.

Bought it on ebay during winter break of my sophomore year of college, gave it a second chance and fell IN LOVE.
