You said they weren't in battle at all though which is different, sorry sir no apology

Instead we get the joy of having them in battle and watching them use Marin Karin every turn

You were being negative and judging a game before you played it but congrats on the 50/50 guess.

Yeah that's what we said and you said "They likely don't actually do anything, they're just escort missions"

Yeah. First he said that, that the Toad was just an escort mission thing.

That video specifically says the partners do help you out in battle, you just don't physically control them yourself.

So it's like Persona 3.

like persona 3 if there was brief sections in the story when a npc showed up and also appeared in battle.

During the original video I laughed and said "they're never giving us partners again" because, like apparently the only sane person left on earth, I inferred that the old days of having "a partner" were long gone.

It felt pretty obvious nintendo heard the fan complaints about the lack of partners in the recent games and either
  1. added a rushed version of partners to seem like they were returning to form
  2. or took something that was already in the game and edited it to make it look like they were partners just like the old games
chances are the truth is somewhere between those two points but either way it's a kinda scummy thing that I expected to laugh about with other people here.

What I didn't expect was a buttload of people with the lowest standards known to man to look at this incomplete half-ass pander and say "yeah that's what we've been asking for"

Nobody's saying this is what we've been asking for

We're just laughing at your attempt to toot your own horn when we all actually remember what you said.

Just because people can recognize that yes, there are actually partners in this game, that doesnt mean that they are going to be satisfied with how they are implemented. Though I suppose most people are waiting to make that judgement until they play the game.

For what it's worth, Santa, I understand your apprehension/frustration here. There are some things I really liked about the pre-release footage, but most of the info has had my bullshit meter going nuts.

I don't think developers should always give in to the mob, but there are times where the mob is right. In the case of Paper Mario, I think the longtime fan/"give us another TTYD" crowd is actually right on the money.

They don't even need to give us a TTYD! If they gave us that RPG and battle system but had paper gimmicks, I wouldn't mind!
