Why Are Fans Going Crazy Over Paper Mario the Thousand Year Door?

[@secret_society5850]

just finished the game, i now completely understand why people have been begging for 20 years, goat game

[@steventyler3582]

Love TYD but the first game is even better. Been screaming for it for ages now......

[@babyaintmoe]

People always forget, that backtracking used to be a major selling point of adventure games back then. You see something odd, you learn a new ability and later come back to that weird spot to get a nice reward. Old Zelda games were filled with backtracking and are loved for that by fans.

[@Arob4343]

lol it’s funny that people simultaneously hate backtracking and linearity….what do they want in a game? One where you only ever go forward but it’s somehow not linear, or one where you never go forward? The 2 things don’t really conflict, but they feel like they do. I just don’t have an issue with either. A linear game can still be fun. Backtracking is fine, so long as it makes sense, like in your examples

[@simz3192]

It’s also huge in Metroid as well. Which is part of the reason I love it so much.

[@sunayama4650]

It's about player choice. Backtracking is only annoying if the game forces you to backtrack. For example, fetch questions or just talking to another NPC. Its different when the player chooses to backtrack. You feel clever for it because you remembered something odd you didn't have access to and chose to go there on your own. The game didn't force it on you.

[@enragedbacon470]

"its fine without a story" when I believe the japanese version of the original literally translates to "mario story"

[@Nate-bf9ob]

One thing I praise about TTYD is how much interesting story telling and dialogue there actually is. It’s a great game to have played as a kid. It’s not just mindless fun you have to somewhat critically think about what to do at times and also pay attention to the dialogue. It’s perfect in this way in that it engages your mind but not as much as a Zelda game would. It’s like a perfect medium. It’s a very immersive game also because many of the things you can do and social situations that happen run parallel to real life. The depth of each character is another amazing thing too. It ultimately really does feel like playing through a movie. There’s some sci fi plots lines y’all wouldn’t believe actually happen. Especially in the context of a mario game. The music and visuals really match up with each little chapter in the storyline too. This and games like sunshine you can tell were real passion projects. All the little things you can do and find it’s great.

[@8BitSkorPO]

I love this review. Brilliant and I agree.

[@Xxsorafan]

Agreed I remember preferring it as a child because of how much narrative wise their was and seeing all the character development

Every chapter is it's own mario spin on classic fairy tales, which makes it feel like a true Storybook.

[@eggbew]

Truly a Storybook moment.

[@PotatoToon]

''People asked for a remake for a very long time'' That's not true, people asked for a port and with Arlo's movement, people asked for at least a remaster. Nobody asked for a remake because we felt like it was too much to ask. That's why for a lot of people even months later it feels unreal that they not only remade it, but they improved on a lot of the original's issues and changed so many things for the better. If you look at many content creators from the era of #remasterthousandyeardoor , you'll see that nobody ever asked for a remake.

[@MusicJunkie37]

Thats cause the original was already basically perfect for those who played it

[@Oscar-Guzman]

Adding to that it’s got to the point: remake=changes. And these changes will impact the attachment folks had with the original game. The remake arguably has made too many changes that weren’t asked or needed. But that’s really the nitpicks that leave others upset and that’s where the TTYD controversy goes deeper.

[@pizzagroom6221]

....there were people wanting a remake, before Arlo's video /push. But I will admit his video invigorated us to demand a remake, and it probably convinced the developers that remaking TTYD is worthwhile. edit: maybe my memory isn't as good as I thought it was, but I know people were clamoring for a TTYD style game as easly as 2006

[@PotatoToon]

@@pizzagroom6221 I don't remember people asking for a remake, we always felt deep down that it could be too much to ask, it feels like asking just a remaster would have made us super happy and more likely. I'm really glad that Nintendo went the extra mile to do a remake. It just feels unreal still.

[@kennymichaelalanya7134]

​​@@pizzagroom6221but a Remake suggest change and that to me post 2020 means they'll add something "wonky" or take something out of the game that wasn't controversial in 2004 but it is today in 2024. I do wish to support the franchise but remakes doesn't mean the Game would be good as the original. For example, SMRPG remake was a good game but it was made easier in so many ways. They did add good changes to it but the difficulty level was far too easy.

[@MusicJunkie37]

2:46 saying Super Paper Mario had partners is a bit generous imo

[@us3r.l0l]

technically they were, they helped you progress in the game like ttyd but lack dialogue so i see your point

[@victorford5047]

​@@us3r.l0l Luigi, Peach and Bowser were the partners. They had the optional dialogues a normal partner would.

[@immortalfrieza]

[@HOBFMS]

TTYD fan here. The reason it’s so amazing is because it’s essentially a sequel to Mario RPG, but with way more gameplay option, clearer story, and actual time in game. I have enjoyed every minute of it.

[@Zolomight]

The blame is more deserved towards series producer Kensuke Tanabe for why Paper Mario detracted from its RPG roots. He's the one who decided to prioritize reinventing the wheel and trying out different battle systems following Super Paper Mario.

[@MrNobody_37]

2:17 boy, that duck sure gets away in a hurry! … I’ve not seen your channel till today, but I’m glad to have happened across it. Your comments are thoughtful and engaging rather than shallow and argumentative-and I find the latter entirely too often.

[@mreverything7056]

If I had to put into words why I’m excited, two things. 1) This series has derived into a strange direction ever since sticker star. A lack of unique characters, battles that actually don’t reward you for fighting enemies, obtuse solutions to puzzles, a lot of things that people considered to be the opposite of the franchise. Seeing Nintendo give us back something that I myself believe is a better system that needs to be reused, I now more than ever want to show them this with my money. If the sales for this game are that much better, than it’ll show Nintendo what we want. 2) There’s been lots of QoL changes that I can’t ignore. I often times see old remasters make the mistake of just updating the graphics slightly and not thinking about what more you can add or patch out of a game. Seeing that Nintendo isn’t falling down that same trap, again, I WANT to support it. This remake is a game that I WANT to show support to, more than Origami King, surprisingly. If Nintendo can give me a product better than my Dolphin Emulator, you bet your ass I’m in.

[@immortalfrieza]

"battles that actually don’t reward you for fighting enemies," Honestly that one thing killed it for me more than anything else. The fact that they went 3 games straight without you even being able to get anything out of fighting anything but the bosses made any other battles pointless and thus not fun.

[@ironiclyaex]

"If it wasn't for the games, this console would be pretty bland" yeah no shit its almost like that's the point of owning a console.

[@ChrisMS0815]

I'm one of those that ignored Color Splash due to my hatred of Sticker Star so how exactly was it trying to be like the old PM games when from what I've heard it still has pointless battles and is structured like Sticker Star?

[@TheRenaissanceOfficial]

The dialogue, although the characters might have a more plain design. You can still find pretty funny writing.

[@ChrisMS0815]

@@TheRenaissanceOfficial I don't know, when I first saw that trailer and saw that the world map was back from Sticker Star and the overall vibe I got was Sticker Star 2.0 so PM was dead to me at that point. My first PM game was the very first one back on N64, I didn't even like Super Paper Mario which alot of people seem to love nowdays but I remember when that game first came out it got tons of hate online for being a 2D sidescroller and the pixis replacing partners was also hated and we didn't even consider those things to be partners.

[@bunsmasterbunny]

3:07. This is inaccurate. Many fans back then hated Super Paper Mario for its gameplay differences. I loved the game but to say that Sticker Star is where people started taking issue is wrong.

[@lonecom685]

Regarding the Switch "not having a personality", I disagree. It has one. It's a very clean and fun system to use in many different ways. It's pratical to use in any of its modes. And I will take that over the confusing and convoluted menus of Wii U and 3DS any day. Trust me, I've been with Nintendo for a while and that's probably the best UX they ever made. It's pick up and play and conserves power and memory for games. It's similar to the Wii menu, but better. Plus, we got Odyssey, Wonder, Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, Metroid Dread, Pikmin 4, Super Samsh Bros Ultimate, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Super Mario Maker 2, Splatoon 3, Luigi's Mansion 3 and so many others... It's the dream console in terms of games.

Ttyd could definitely be considered overrated by hardcore fans who love the game.

It’s crazy, as a kid I never thought it was too easy. In fact, trying to figure out where to go next was sometimes difficult. I think I even stopped playing at one time because I didn’t know where to go. The combat was just enough of a challenge. Perhaps as an adult it does feel easy, but I’m soooo looking forward to playing this remake. I hope they got it right.

It's kind of a long game too if you want to 100% it. I don't remember much because of the length but it was hilarious. I recall being stuck in that one part. (I don't want to spoil it) but it has something to do with an accusation of some kind. That's the only thing I can recall. (20 years later)

Origami King was also my first Paper Mario game, and I wish I could have enjoyed it as much as you did, but I just thought it was mediocre.

As a TTYD fan, I think Color Splash and Origami King are good games. I have a lot of problems with Color Splash, but other than the leak of “unique” (in the sense of names and design) characters, partners and battle system, I think Origami King is a good game. I think the problem with the fanbase is that there is no civil discussion. In both sides, the vocal toxic minority always is going to pull people away from games that they could have love. For exemple, imagine if you never played TTYD because of the fanbase and vice-versa, you would be loosing great games. Thats what I think about the Paper Mario fanbase. The majority of people are civil, but these toxic minorities keep dividing the franchise.

[@CephenJane]

THIS

[@sebastianguerrero6617]

No offense but the majority of the toxicity from my perspective has been coming from the old fans, like overwhelming so, and unfortunately for them it looks like karma is coming in fast

[@darcidious99]

My problem is that just looking at them objectively, the new games do nothing better than the old ones apart from looking better and maybe being funnier. Gameplay wise the new games are identity crises with combat that's just a slower version of what we had before. The ideas were cute, the execution was abysmal. Origami king barely even has "combat" it has "puzzles" which im sure some people enjoy but I and many others despise it (the stickers/cards were purely just terrible). They didn't want them to be "RPG's" but made the game revolve around turn based combat, thats not how that works. Super paper mario on the Wii did this better, combat may have been simple, but it actually felt unique and set itself apart (albeit the tacked on rpg elements like levels was kinda just weird there too), in addition to not taking up a bunch of time. Story wise OK is the only one really worth talking about tbh. I think its good, but super and TTYD I'd say were much more interesting and thats primarily because of the unique characters. The new game has Olivia and Ollie and thats it, no bobby doesn't count because he is literally named "bob-omb", he's just a plain ordinary bob-omb without a fuse. I cannot emotionally invest in that, I'm sorry. But the plot itself, cute and its good. Those Id say are the 2 primary pillars that any game stands on when we say what's "good", and comparatively the old games had pillars of concrete where the new ones have pillars of sand. Subjectively i mean like whichever ones you like IDC they're all charming, but objectively the new games are just a mess in terms of design and inconsistent limitations that nobody, and I mean NOBODY wanted. Seriously, we can't have unique characters... But we can get Huey, and Ollie/Olivia, and... Whatever the crown's name was i cant remember cause she was just awful? It makes absolutely 0 sense.

Honestly, everyone keeps talking about the RPG combat and story as if they’re mutually exclusive with the paper aesthetic. Personally I’m actually a huge fan of the paper craft aesthetic, and think that there’s a lot of potential for fun story and environments with it, but it just so happens that the games that focused on it more heavily were the ones that moved away from RPG stuff and story… Honestly, I’d play through a version of Origami King that had a normal battle system and probably love it, but with the stupid match-4 combat as it is, I don’t have the patience to get past the water temple.

[@Al_X-2005]

I've been playing for a few weeks, at least whenever I get the chance. I was always more of a M&L fan than a Paper Mario one, I tried to get into PM64 but it didn't really click with me. But I've given the older formula another shot with TTYD and I finally get what fans of this game have been saying. The game is chalk full of genuine charm and the battle system, while simple at first, has so many nuiances that encourage you to perfect you're inputs. The partners implement a whole new layer of strategy too

The WiiU didn't sell very well, and a lot of the people who would buy it were old Nintendo diehards. And they had been burned by Sticker Star, which this game looked a lot like.

I’ve played TTYD like 4 times over.. so excited for updated 5th run on the Switch!! Target got my delivery for Thursday!!

[@Htiy]

Playing it i get the exact feeling like its an OG mario and luigi game from the DS so yeah

[@Gmuhvo]

I only ever preordered mario rpg and paper mario ttyd really hope Nintendo knows what i want to support

[@animeentranced1130]

FR, I have never done so until now but I do plan to buy maybe 3-5 physical copies of TTYD for friends and family just to support this. Whether it's 3 or 5 probably depends if they cut Vivian's story short *again*.

[@noremfor]

Super Paper Mario was my first Paper Mario, and there are aplenty people who dislike that game, so I totally understand your bias for Origami King, SPM was and still is my favorite. I haven't gotten around to TTYD yet but I'm excited to get started! Also despite its flaws I think Origami King was an extremely well "crafted" game, if you catch my drift. It's story is very well made, the battle system is pretty fun, and it's musical score is phenomenal. While it is still a ways off from the classic Paper Mario games, I hold it in quite a high regard. I dont think there is a single game in this series that is bad, they're all great in their own ways, but I do believe Sticker Star could have done better. People held high expectations for Sticker Star because of the last 3 games performing very well so I understand why people hate it so much.

[@8BitSkorPO]

I can’t wait for you to try TTYD imo a masterpiece (out of all in the franchise, well maybe not more than the first one) but yes!

[@PieJee1]

wasn't color splash being ignored because it was on the wii u?

[@gboogie3257]

As a Guy who has played PM64,CS,and TOK (and enjoyed all of them) I have no doubt I’ll enjoy this one too

[@HappyAntenna-TheBlackerBaron]

I feel like nintendo is trying to make paper mario more *paper* like and making it feel like real. And uh... It might be hard for the story to be "good" To be fair i still love Colour Splash and Origami King. Both have a pretty happy theme. Also im sad you didnt talk about the Paper Mario OST anywhere. Because its so good. Im going to looking for the duck now.

[@Luis-jl6oh]

I personally don't care for the story, for me it was the Action commands, Partners and Badges

[@cactusman07pim]

Nintendo just needed to wait if they´d released Paper Mario: The Origami King and The Thousand-Year Door Remake simultaneously they set themselves up for failure. With Metroid and Pikmin releasing new releases and remasters at the same time slot didn´t undermine their own sales. It took some planning to phase out the new projects without damaging potential sales and transition to RPGs. Now Nintendo can continue this on the next gen Switch with new releases.

[@robertgreenaway5166]

Original game cube game is crashing hard after this port on eBay

[@JJMomoida]

Although TTYD is my favorite Paper Mario........ I really kinda wish/hope (?) we'd get a remake of the N64 one.

[@sebastianguerrero6617]

the one thing I'm worried about this game right now is that when it come out and it probably won't do as well as Origami King that the old school fans are going be seriously outrage and complain about There's multiple reasons why like modern fans and older fans not getting along and that leading to the new offense not wanting to support this game along with them want paper mario to continue doing what has been doing lately. There's also the very clear pattern of The second game of a series that launches on the same console not doing as well as the first one. And then there's a fact that it's viewed as a bit of a filer title between now and the new console release and Isn't that exciting to most fans except for the hard cord ones. There's a lot more details to those points but my Point still stands. I'm Just getting ready for how things will Oregon likely play out after this game launches, and it's not gonna be pretty trust me

[@woop-fl7sl]

I’m just upset about this game bc I finished a nostalgic replay of this game literally a couple days before it was announced.

[@queasycarboy508]

For me actually i liked both styles. I would like the stickers/cards of the new era but the partners and probably XP of the old series. Oh and cant forget having HP visible in some way. I just hate super paper mario.

[@JYGamingGuys]

I hope we also get a remake of Mario & Luigi Bowser’s Inside Story. That game is regarded as the best of the Mario & Luigi series just as TTYD is considered the best of Paper Mario

[@King_Luigi]

But... we did get one. It came out ~5 years ago.

[@MythHead]

it wouldn't make much sense since a remake of bowser's inside story came out on the 3ds in 2019

[@MusicJunkie37]

To the other 2 commenters above me: port the 3DS game to Switch then, and port the 3ds version of Luigi's mansion while you are at it

[@JoseViktor4099]

@@MusicJunkie37 BiS wouldnt be that easy to port honestly, knowing that both the Original and the Remake used the 2 screens in order to work, apart of some DS capacities that could be hard to port into the switch, like the touchscreen not being as comfortable as the 3/2/DS for its size.

[@Goomba1309]

Boy howdy I have even better news for ya

[@NerdoftheGames]

I know I am going to get crapped on for saying this... I have had this game on GameCube since launch and have never played it. I am buying the remake on Switch and will play it there. I have a huge backlog.

[@odnetnin4720]

Nintendo is missing out. I really don’t understand why my local target didn’t have ttyd on the shelf! But they have botw still at full price!

[@masonripton2574]

How bout Nintendo gives us that wind waker port now

[@TheRenaissanceOfficial]

Good idea

[@cyberfennek]

I got so bored playing this way to slow levelling and battles takes way too long

You forgot the best super paper Mario the best 2d game ever on the first Wii.

i of gotten the pre order and just waiting for next Week because well TTYD is a game i grew up with as a kid and haven't played it in like 10 or so years

[@KingLaZrButBad]

color splash is so awesome

[@darkmaster6481]

I’m looking forward for this remaster as I’ve been starving for a good Paper Mario game for a long time. Origami King is okay, but Color Splash and Sticker Star are bad due to the battle mechanics making it unnecessary hard and bad. I couldn’t win the final boss in Sticker Star due to running out of attack stickers which is Bul$&! and I stop playing Color Splash due to I got sick of the attack cards and colors battle mechanic which way better than Sticker Star but still pretty bad.

[@Frogghh]

i grew up with paper mario sticker star and color splash and loves those games to death especially color splash but come on, the thousand year door is miles better

[@jrgmen]

I love the charm of the first Paper Mario

[@chadbrick67]

Just finished it in 4k 60fps on the ryujinx emulator very good game indeed

[@HappyAntenna-TheBlackerBaron]

Hidden duck at 2:17 What do I get now?

The satisfaction of being the second person to find it!

7:43 didn't change anything? 😅

[@theflooddude1753]

i believe he meant story wise, i love the new graphics from the trailer

[@cooljrgaming9729]

My favorite Paper Mario game is Colour Splash. I love the graphics, writing, combat, scenery, etc. I hope TTYD lives up to the standard the community holds it to. I also hope that if Nintendo wants to take the series in the direction of the first 2 games, they can still bring the good aspects of the modern games.

[@EpicAj11]

If color splash had ttyd’s battle system and had partners, it would be the best paper Mario game for me

[@ABulbmin]

​@@EpicAj11also unique characters

[@cooljrgaming9729]

@@ABulbmin My one criticism of the game. If they had just at the very least given the toads some unique clothes that'd be good enough.

[@christianr.5868]

I think you shouldn’t listen to the opinions of other for TTYD. Go in with low expectations and see for yourself

[@kennycarter5682]

well i pre ordered the game on eshop using a voucher. and i got the game on emulator. but that copy will only be for mods now.. i cant wait till the 23rd.
