| Topic | I loved Super Mario RPG but couldn't get into Mario and Luigi games |
| Bringit 01/25/18 12:58:41 AM #40: | I have a weird history with the Mario RPG series. I really liked SMRPG once I finally got the chance to play it and I LOVED TTYD. I've tried 2 or 3 Mario and Luigi games, always got bored after a couple hours and I went through the entire Paper Mario 64 and thought that too was mostly a snore-fest in comparison to TTYD. It had very little (if any?) of TTYD's humor and instead had a simple, shallow story that was played entirely straight -- even children's fairytales generally have more nuance. With nothing backing it up other than the gameplay and visuals, it got repetitive so fast, from about the middle point I had to drag my feet the rest of the way to the end. I don't even remember the party members other than there was a Goomba and a Koopa; the writing was just so bland. Combine those past experiences with the middling/mixed reactions to post TTYD Paper Mario/RPG games and I've basically avoided the whole Mario RPG thing in general for many years. --- "All will be well." ...
