They claim that "Paper Mario" was always just a title and the world was never supposed to be paper and that "Sticker Star ruined it by making the world paper".

Everything was Paper in the first one!

In fact, Thousand Year Door, the one every loves, was the one that made paper mache and origami a gameplay mechanic!

Also they always act like Super Paper Mario was anything like the first two when in reality Super Paper Mario is a farther cry from the first two than even the newer three games.

I've never seen anyone make this argument.

Then again, I do go out of my way to try and avoid stupid people, so maybe that's it.

This just proves you have not talked to anyone about Paper Mario in close to a decade.

Is it really, though? You have been the only person Ive heard say this. And based on what has been said here, the same seems to be true of the other posters

I remember being a little bothered when TTYD came out that they were actually making the paper thing significant instead of just being an art style, but I got over that pretty quickly, and that was almost 20 years ago. I had no idea people were whining about it now.

I wouldn't say it was as good as TTYD, but it was a very solid game in its own right. It just got a lot of hate for being different, hate that started long before it even came out.

The 'just an artstyle' argument isn't really accurate, it's moreso that the paper elements are pushed a lot more in the later games. NPCs make paper puns and talk about their folds/creases/tears/etc. and you fight alongside/against scissors/staplers/tape/etc. I'm not saying the new style is inherently worse (though I much prefer the first two games) but that's where the divide comes from

I should really play Sticker Star. I've had it for ages, but never touched it. Given how I tend to hoard consumable items in RPG's (gotta make sure I have them in case I really need them later... never mind that it's the final boss fight), I have a feeling a battle system built entirely around consumables is going to end up rubbing me the wrong way, but I do want to give it a legitimate shot.

Should I play the original Paper Mario? It was something I wanted to try out on Switch. Also are they ever going to release GameCube games on there?

As far as I know they take issues with the newer games not even being RPGs like the originals.

I just want a PM game in the style of 64 and TTYD

Also the earlier PM acknowledged its paper aspect, but didn't dwell on it the entire game. It also has smoother animation. Later PMs animate like it's stop-motion and it doesn't look that great.

That's pretty much how I felt. I wanted to not have to use certain stickers all the time. I don't remember getting too far. Maybe I beat the first boss. I probably should go find my 3DS and the game somewhere...

You should at least try it... And they'll probably get to GameCube eventually... Might just take a little time...
