Get to castle

>You can do them at the same time

One becomes available an entire chapter before the other.

First of all, nice Reddit spacing. Second of all, Ms. Mowz isn't even useful until you have Smooch anyway, why would you even want her around before you have the Ultra Stone?

It's fun

It's a sad state of affairs, isn't it?

>nice Reddit spacing
I don't use reddit.
>Ms. Mowz isn't even useful until you have Smooch anyway
Ms Mowz is one of my favorite partners. I'm fully aware that she sucks. She's actually useful for master quest and hard mode mods.

I bet you mention Yea Forums in public.

chapter 4 deserved better for having such great presentation

This is the problem I've always had with TTYD whether I've known it or not and I believe that 64 is the better game but pure nostalgia makes me unable to admit it

all chapters deserved better, if they had more time maybe it would be as good as 64's level design

Actually just picked up my Save of Pro Mode for 64 recently. Sucks now I'm in Bowsers Castle and its crashing

Think I may just not finish and pickup a Difficulty mod run of TTYD next

why not play master quest instead?
Besides the 3 boo battle in chapter 3 it isn't as badly balanced as pro mode and is actually finished

I played it for the very first time a couple years ago, and while I don't think I could've handled a lot of stretches without fast forwarding as a distracted high schooler when it actually came out, it's one of the most alien Mario settings in the best possible way, but without feeling like it isn't a Mario game. TTYD is everything they could've done right with introducing new characters/worlds while tweaking the iconic stuff we've otherwise seen more than enough in the same roles, something B-teams have always done better than Shiggy's crew

I think SPM took it a little too far with the setting AND humor, and was probably used as an excuse to make all future PM games samey core characters only. The gutting of most RPG/exploration elements in favor of more of a hybrid platformer thing also didn't really help

Backtracking issues aside, TTYD deserves praise for it's design alone. It's really moody and isolated compared to PM, which even as a kid didn't really wow me compared to Mario RPG's locales, at least up until you hit Shiver City, which is where PM starts to feel like the game TTYD would become. It definitely adds a lot to what's actually a really interesting backstory, and it's 100% up there with SMRPG when it comes to having actual fun with all the crazy shit in the series, and why a lot of people should endure shit like sewer travel and Twilight Town

The characters are Mario enemies with silly hats and clothes which means they're deep and interesting.

I mainly like the combat system.

it helps set them apart but it isn't really needed, the new team is just shit at it

Mostly because things like you mention are only a first run thing. You shouldn't be missing everything so badly. You're backtracking far more than needed. Just level up BP and say fuck it to your own well being. You'll thank me later.

Literally what are you talking about?
You can beat Hooktail's Castle the moment you step inside.

Is it possible to enjoy the game while trying out some different level up paths each time? I did a couple original runs when I first played the game years ago, and then I eventually tried Danger Mario. I'm pretty sure Danger Mario ruined the game for me, not because it sucked, but because it was so fucking funny that I don't think I could have another playthrough as entertaining as that.

this is the same fucking guy whining about this universally regarded masterpiece every goddamn time. pathetic bitch boy lmao

people played it when they were kids. The original is far superior, even super is superior in multiple ways. still a lot better than SS/CS

it was an inferior invincible tubba blubba, even ignoring the backtracking

Ironically, chapter 6 in PM64 shows exactly how TTYD should have handled its backtracking. On repeat playthroughs, you can reduce your time in flower fields by knowing the layout, unlike the shit in TTYD which forces you to do stupid shit everytime. And that was one chapter alone vs like half the game

People only like it because it's full of sex and violence.

Adding a shortcut back to town after you discover Doopliss' name could have saved this chapter.

Just wanna remind you all that Super Paper Mario is the best of the three good Paper Mario games

I've never had a game which I both loved and hated at the same time. Emphasis on the hate.

I feel like I fucked myself extra hard

Chapter 3

Yeah, that one is kind of absurd, at least it didn't have that fucking chapter 5 cliff.
