    To me, Mario and Luigi is a turn-based RPG series I'd recommend to people who don't like turn-based RPGs. If you don't like waiting for your turn, helplessly watching your character take the hits that they canonically should be able to dodge or block no problem or getting screwed over because you got stuck in a fight with low health and the enemy goes first, then Mario and Luigi is perfect for you.

    • @biggarffan37
      @biggarffan37  Месяц назад +9

      to be completely fair those are all also addressed in TTYD. Mario always goes first (no speed stats at all) and you can avoid all damage if you get good enough at super guarding.

    If you didn't know, Paper Mario was originally going to be a direct sequel to Super Mario RPG, the game was even being called RPG 2 when it was in development, but Square wouldn't allow it since they have partial ownership to RPG so Nintendo had to change up the game to make it different from RPG and that's how Paper Mario was born

    I don't mind if modern Paper Mario isn't a RPG, I hate the fact that the devs made these unnecessary changes; took away the unique character designs, forces these dumb paper jokes, etc.
    Just look at Super Paper Mario. It's the perfect example of a gamplay mechanic change but keeps everything the same without ruining the game's esthetic style.

    Origami King is, in fact, an RPG. You travel through an overworld, upon hitting enemies you transition to another screen where combat happens in a turn based format, there are several stats you can increse over the course of your playthrough and resource management with your durability and coins. The "adventure game" thing was a atupid deflection nintendo came up with on the spot to quell backlash over Color Splash that totally fucking backfired.
    With that said. Love Origami King. Play it with the refolded mod if you can.

    • @biggarffan37
      @biggarffan37  Месяц назад

      I'm gonna break my rule here and talk about Origami King (just very neutrally)
      I personally just don't think it is. Obviously "RPG" is a very loose concept as is, but I do think the main thing is the lack of character progression: No experience points to level up and enhance your stats. To me that is the core of the RPG experience. Sure you can enhance stats by finding HP Up Hearts, buy better weapons to up your attack (I think attack goes up at the end of every chapter too?) but none of that is tied to character progression. It's more comparable to a Zelda Game imo: finding heart pieces, finding better weapons - you only grow from story progression and optional pick ups. In the same way you can avoid normal enemies in Zelda without consequence, you are actively incentivized to avoid combat in Origami King. The game's focus is clearly on the adventure and story aspects, it is not concerned with RPG mechanics because that is not what it wants to be, so at least in my opinion it just makes a lot more sense to be classified as an adventure game.
