If the only problem is the battle system, I'm okay with that. Game looks great otherwise.

Aggregate ratings and scores mean nothing when critics all rate according to how much they got paid and rando ratings are pretty much invariably:

"0/10 worst ____ ever"
"Why?"
"Because it sucks?"
"What sucks about it?"
"Everything."

Looks like the criticism for the battle system is that the puzzling is good but the attacking is not.

move all remaining groundhog mercenaries to the front lines. Have sheep troopers squadrons A and B flank the cows. They're using DC-17 hoof blasters.

paper mario is dead to me until they re-release the first 2 (would buy a switch the second i heard the news) or they return to formula. I got super paper mario for free and still regretted it

After watching someone stream the game on YouTube because it leaked early, I wont be buying the game. The battle system looks very boring and some bits of the story are fairly lackluster. Lets just say you can easily tell its the same writer from SS and CS. Whoever it is, this person loves to use the same story beats over and over again.

Is there any point to battling? I've only played 64 so I'm not super attached to the series so this might be with a try.

Ill be buying it because, while I do enjoy the original games, a mostly great action adventure Mario game with a unique if relatively pointless battle system is still something I want to play

i hope everyone elses boycott is successful tho and Nintendo gets the hint that we want a true RPG Mario game again

Sad thing is that by video game standards that strikes me as kind of bad. Only 10 points above Mass Effect Andromeda, one of the worst games ever made is just not impressive.

the writing was good but the gameplay for me was sterile and lifeless, esp in 3d. uninteresting character designs for me. no strategy or engagement involved so it wasnt my thing

i'm not sure how others feel

Super Mario was a good game that was barred from being great by the annoying traversal, particularly in Flipside.

Those elevator rides.... yuck.

Honestly extremely higher than I expected (thought it would be low 70s). Game looks like more SS/CS trash to me.

The gameplay is so dry and uninspired it's painful.
