Why Mario and Luigi Brothership Could Disappoint

​@@netweed09exactly I don't think I can finish watching this nonsense.

[@CreepECrawlyMan]

I don't think it's even far to judge Brothership on the basis of Paper Jam; it's pretty clear that at the height of Paper Mario's period of blandness, the ridiculous mandate on Mario characters and their obsessing with simplifying RPG elements even polluted Mario and Luigi with Paper Jam...BUT I think that's a PM problem that Mario and Luigi had to unfortunately had to deal with the burden. I don't necessarily feel like it's an overall alert to M&L's future intensions. I'm frankly willing to give the new game a shot simply because it feels like Nintendo is being confident; keep in mind, this is ALSO the very first original Mario RPG that isn't a remake...and the fact that they opted for a new title AND headed a Direct with it makes me feel like they really REALLY wanted to put a little more into than usual.

[@pointillism252]

You're wrong, the game I guess being "bland" is an intentional choice. The reason they didn't have original characters is because the game was focusing on paper and non paper counterparts, which meant using characters and enemies that existed in both universes, kinda locking them to the main set of Mario enemies and characters and such. To our understanding and from what can be assumed thanks to dream team coming after sticker star, the Mario and Luigi team had full creative freedom.

[@unoriginalusername4416]

@@pointillism252That explains some of it, like the characters and enemies, but not the environments or changes to existing characters like Bowser’s 3 generals in the later remakes. I would guess Dream Team escaped that issue because it was just in development earlier than the company’s shift to only wanting to use existing mainline Mario stuff.

[@pointillism252]

@@unoriginalusername4416 Again, I have to disagree, as a playable demo of sticker star as far back as 2010 exists, meaning it was probably in development longer or at least the same time. Even discounting that, the bog standard locations could be due to a lower budget because of dream team's relatively lower sales. As for the elite trio, the only design change is that they have bowser insignias now so I'm not sure what you're referring to.

[@AFOOp-u8f]

I don’t wanna be the ultimate Nintendo glazer but I highly doubt anything about Paper Jam applies out here, especially when they have original characters and bosses/villains so while it’s probably not gonna be a masterpiece, it is gonna be quality.

[@valeriebreidenstein8362]

Agree with you there. Also Paper Jam was the only game in the series which was like that. The other 4 and the 2 remakes (including the Bowser's minons side quests) were very well made.

[@xanander4693]

[@cyusontheinternet]

Personally, I don’t think this game is gonna be the best in the series, but I do think it’s gonna be a *damn* good game. The new artstyle is gorgeous and even M&L’s lowest lows were still at least *good* games. I mean, i’d play paper jam over sticker star/color splash any day of the week.

[@ThatGuyWhoGames]

You are right if the 4 games were sticker star, color splash, origami or paper jame I’m choosing paper jame

[@BowlOSoup6661]

​@@ThatGuyWhoGames I love Color Splash but I'd even pick any of the Mario and Luigi games over them. Paper Mario hits HARD, when it's good, but when it's bad, it's pretty horrendous. But Mario and Luigi consistently hit hard every time, even if it doesn't hit as hard as something like TTYD.

[@OriginalUnjustifier]

Honestly, the fact this game is showing that the M&L series didn't die outright with Alphadream shutting it's doors is the main reason people are so dang hyped over it. It gives us hope that maybe Nintendo is hopefully listening to what the fans actually want: A return to form instead of the bland 'approved by committee' titles we've been getting. I really hope that we get back the really creative RPG's with incredibly memorable characters and settings that BOTH series were founded on. Heck, I STILL remember some of PPTTYD's biggest moments because that game just bled heart and passion, and I haven't gotten around to the remake to refresh my memories on them.

[@ThatGuyWhoGames]

I think the fact that the entire Mario & Luigi series is playable on the 3ds is amazing. I recenetly picked up the series and the 3ds is the perfect console, Every single old game got remasterd for the 3ds, or new games directly released to ds/3ds. As much as I love my switch I've come to go back to the 3DS titles after some time...

I think it's gonna beat out Bowser's Inside Story for me. I missed the cool Bros attacks from Superstar Saga where they actually used each other to attack, instead of weird items. The bros attacks in Bowser's Inside Story are fun (Snack Basket >:)) but I like the teamwork aspect of using their hammers to and jumps to help each other. And that seems to be returning.

[@ThatGuyWhoGames]

I agree with that, it always made sense that they would attacked based on moves taught to them rather than finding puzzle pieces in the wild. I also never minded Partners in Times buying of Bros. attacks since it made coins much more valuable

[@valeriebreidenstein8362]

Agree. It's what I also liked about Dreamteams Dream attacks, since most of them were moves the Dream Luigis used outside of battle as well. And it's so cool to get the real bros attacks back. (Even though it seems like the Red Shell bros attack from Dreamteam makes a return)

First time seeing your videos, and i really like it!

[@EmeraldCheetah-QC]

I could be wrong here, so correct me if I am, but isn't it possible that Alphadream's problems with low income started earlier than you're proposing? I think that they had issues with revenue BEFORE the remakes. 1. They reused assets from Dream Team for both remakes. When comparing a remake to a whole new game with how much art needs to be created, a remake would be a lot more viable if their budget was thinner than they would have liked. 2. They stuck with the 3DS rather than using the Switch. Learning a whole new console's mechanics takes time, and time is money when it comes to ANY company, which is something that, again, Alphadream could have been having issues with at the time. Sure they could've ported things over to the Switch, but why spend the money to do that when everything was already right there on the 3DS. When I think of it like this, it just makes sense why Alphadream made remakes instead of new games, it's because they LITERALLY couldn't. They still put their hat in the ring, they still tried to stay afloat with what they could do, but in the end it didn't work, and thus they had to file for bankruptcy. I have high hopes for Brothership, but I get the doubt some are having, because it isn't the same baseline, but as the saying goes "You never know unless you try it". That's both for myself and everyone else, it's fine if you are holding back or if you're all in, but just in case, keep your expectations on the fence, try not to lean fully to one side or the other. Thank you for your time, I hope you enjoyed my Ted Talk.

[@unoriginalusername4416]

I saw at some point somebody said AlphaDream was way in debt even when trying to make Dream Team, and that’s why Nintendo never bought them out to secure them as a first-party developer. It makes sense considering the drastic shift in development the new system and art style required. Even just switching to 3D environments probably forced them to expand faster than they had the money to.

I want to love Dream Team so bad but I can't even get around to finishing it, the game gets very hard to get through for me because of the amount of exposition given to player at any given time and when I leave for long periods and try to return I get lost in my place and don't know where to go.

I think it’s also worth mentioning how the game could also be amazing. The points you made don’t perfectly support how the game could be disappointing.

I don't think it's far to judge the new M&L game based off the quality of the last original game in the series as it's not always indicative of the quality of the new release. I think back to HAL, the current Kirby devs that went from a well received game (planet robobot) to a poorly received game (star Allies, arguably one of the worst Kirby games in the modern era) but they were able to bounce back with The forgotten land, which is considered one of the best games in the series. I think whoever is developing the new game is able to do the same, especially considering how there's most likely a lot of new staff for this game as well. Also the fact that this game seemingly takes place in a new location with original characters, antagonists and so on a long with a new animation style gives me so much hope.

[@ThatGuyWhoGames]

Origami King is very creative, but I think in a way it's poorly designed since battles have no reason to be done, you learn nothing from them to beat the bosses since boss fights are completely different and you gain nothing from doing the smaller normal fights, it's a turn base battle just for the sake of it when it could've been something more useful for the player. The mandate was always rumored to exist and while I don't think it happened you can't deny that it seemed like every Mario series was sticking to a style sheet, why would the Mario and Luigi series of all things strip itself of original characters?? It's been confirmed that the mandate never existed and it was a miscommunication and I should've included that in the video. However I stand by my opinions, you don't have to agree and what I'm saying is all speculation I just thought it was interesting to talk about, you're more than welcome to disagree with me I'm always happy to discuss.

[@valeriebreidenstein8362]

​@@Lando.Comics Totally agree. Dream Team was awesome. I really liked the Dream World angle. The soundtrack was peak and by far the best in the series (next to Superstar Saga). And the Original Chracaters like the Pi'illos were nice too.

@@Lando.ComicsDream Team isn’t my favorite but I highly respect everyone who says it’s the best. That game is soooo good (just like every game in this series)

The view to like ratio makes me smile 😊 doesn’t deserve any likes

[@KenanVonKaiser]

Dislike!

[@السراقالمجهول]

fr tho i have only 3 issues with the new game and theyre so nit picky it hurts 1- textures look just a little too low res tho that might just be youtube compression 2- the composer may not be yoko shimamura, if this is true then this is by default the weakest ost since she composed the entire series 3- i hate the fucking boxart, instead of having a hand drawn 2d one like strikers and the past games they just posed the renders thats about it really, im really excited for this game

[@ThatGuyWhoGames]

YOKO SHIMAMURA MIGHT NOT RETURN WHAT

[@السراقالمجهول]

@@ThatGuyWhoGames its not confirmed, if she didnt return that would be baffling because they got her for sparks of hope and rpg remake

[@noahbanana7526]

Number 3 disgusted me so much when i learned about it and I almost threw up.

[@Esteban_Bolert]

I kinda get your worries on point 2, but even if yoko it's not there to compose the ost, i think it's kinda shitty to say that "it will be the weakest just because certain person will not compose for this one" not allowing this hipotetically new composer a chance, because in the trailer, the music actually sounds really good! In point 3...eh???....i kinda get it but it's still a really personal-pick, i actually liked the box art and it looks really nice

[@السراقالمجهول]

@@Esteban_Bolert if the first song in trailer is the main theme (title theme) then yeah thats defiantly the weakest one in the series yet, all the other ones have a very distinct melody and feel, this one just feels like cascade kingdom, i cant really remember its melody

[@fernandolemus5965]

Dream team had an amazing sound track, nothing like Paper jam frfr

The fact that some people are upset that they ditched Starlow makes me question humanity.

[@ThatGuyWhoGames]

Starlow was great in Inside Story but then she become a hater of luigi and that made me not want her around anymore

[@xanander4693]

Hold your horses buddy. We haven’t even seen much gameplay at all so why this pessimistic view?

[@ThatGuyWhoGames]

Just a thought I had, and listen I hope I'm wrong

[@xanander4693]

@@ThatGuyWhoGamesWell it’s stupid. No one should be making any claims about the quality of this game until it comes out. Wait and see, stop being cynical.

[@zekmaster644]

​@@xanander4693he's only listing his concerns about what the game could be, which is valid since the series up till alphadream's bankruptcy ended with a whimper. He wants the game to be a success, just concerned it might go the way of paper jam. Not too cynical at all.

Two words will probably make this game bad: KEVIN AFGHANI

[@ahmedhasan4966]

How?

[@ExGanonMain]

@@ahmedhasan4966 His voice acting for Mario and Luigi isn’t great but it’s improving. But because we’re gonna have to hear his voice from Mario and Luigi for the entire game and even the god awful Italian gibberish it will be terrible

[@johnmehlman5195]

​​@@ExGanonMainthats just a you problem

[@ThatGuyWhoGames]

I personally think he doesn’t sound different, he sounds like a young Charles and having that energy and new life was a bit over due. I will always love Charles he made these characters who they are but it’s clear the choice to step down was his decision he couldn’t record like he use to and I think the mantel was passed on to a great actor who sounds nearly identical. If you open up to them it’s not that bad at all

[@ExGanonMain]

@@johnmehlman5195 Yeah basically
