Paper Mario Master Quest: The Ultimate Challenge?

[@Stryder7x]

Edit: Due to popular demand, I highlighted the entire Master Quest playthrough on Twitch. You can find the videos here: www.twitch.tv/stryder7x/videos?filter=highlights&sort=time Hey guys! Hope you enjoy part 1 of this highlight video. It was 55 minutes long at first, so it seemed better to split into 2 videos. Part 2 is super hype with the boss rematches, so I'll put that out next week :)

I just want to say, thank you for all the content on Paper Mario. I've actually never played the game before, but I love learning about how they work. There's something satisfying about knowing the mechanics of a game that you once viewed as a child with pure awe and wonder. Thought it was like magic! The only game I really understand on a similar level so far would be Mortis Ghost's OFF, but that's mainly because I began experimenting with RPG Maker 2003 and then understanding how it works as I make a game. Either way, thank you again, looking forward to Part 2!

[@emperorthamz1464]

Just want to say thank you to Stryder and everyone who showed up to his streams for supporting development of Master Quest!

[@Pimploaf_YTP]

4 years later but I wanted to say how much I've enjoyed the Jr. version so far. I played a lot of PM64 as a kid and while I'm not an expert (obviously, since I didn't opt for the non-jr. version) I still found the game far less engaging without self-imposed challenges, and even then a lot of the encounters put me on autopilot. I've only played through chapter 1 but I've really enjoyed the balance changes the team brought, and it's great feeling engaged with this classic again. Though I would kind of liked a patch without the script changes -- not because I dislike the new dialogue, I actually like it, but just to satisfy the purists that like the innocent tone of the original. I wouldn't personally use it (especially not on a first run) as I find the new changes amusing and I'm engaged just looking for them but PM64 has a childlike tone distinct from its sequels, and some might prefer it. Overall love it so far.
