    What do you mean you wouldn't associate funny with Paper Mario? These games have always been the most comical of the Mario series.

      maugos the most comical were Mario and Luigi rpgs but I see where he's coming from because memorable moments of the paper Mario series were dark

      The first 3 Paper Mario games focus more on subtle tongue in cheek humor and witty character interactions. While Mario and Luigi focus on a more boisterous and wacky slapstick oriented type of humor. Both games are humorous, but in their own way.
      Sticker star on the other hand focuses only on making paper/sticker jokes.
      Color splash is a little better in that because there are some genuinely funny jokes hidden under all the visual gags, paper/paint related wordplay, and self referential jokes.

    • @1japanfan883

    One way the battle system could easily be fixed is by NOT having every attack be consumable. Why not just keep the jump and hammer be 24/7 attacks. That way if you didn't have the exact card, you still had a means of dishing out some pain.

    • @ninjamaster9094
      @ninjamaster9094 8 лет назад +44

      It doesn't even make sense. Why does Mario need to rely on a card just to do something he's always been able to do? I can understand cards like the iron jump or eekhammer, because they add to Mario's basic abilities, but the regular jump and hammer? That makes no sense. Plus, he can jump and hammer all over the place outside of battle, so why does he need a card to jump and hammer in battle?

    Wait what? "you wouldn't associate paper Mario with funny, let alone a Mario title"...but the Paper Mario series has always been witty and comical, and as for other Mario games all of the Mario and Luigi titles have some hilarious writing. Now, Jirard, I know you have only played the first game in this series, however if you didn't pick up the witty humor and comical writing in the script, then I believe you may have been too involved in getting another Completionist episode finished as apposed to actually taking time relax and enjoy the story and all it has to offer...and I recommend you play the game again and take time to enjoy it. Still love you though brother.

      Super paper mario is not even close to a masterpiece, probably the most overrated game in the series (i know that ttyd gets more praise but the game kinda deserves some of it). Color splash is a paper mario game, sticker star isn't.

    Dude, writting in Paper Mario was pretty great.
    And this time, they're just trying to play the whole "irony" card at all the beaten Mario formula stuff. But there is no irony or comedy in doing exactlyt he same stuff, but with a whitty comment.
    "Oh, no, here comes that Bowser again, kidnapping that princess!" - if you just say that over the kindapping being bland and you still having to save Peach. You need to do something more that just acknowledge the pattern to be ironic. Have Bowser steal her in Peach-shaped trap, have rotating doors on Peach's sell, have Peach greet her prison guards by name and ask them how their families are doing.
    You have an RPG, with a chanse to make things different, not bound by, for some reason, obligatory Mario formula of collect stars, save princess. But instead you make just another Mario game - and this time the gimmick machine pointed at "Paint" as the gimmick that makes it all so different.
    But, you see, I'm not ranting about Nintendo sucking their thumbs dry for ideas while not really caring for Paper Mario, with them having a place-holder instead of the plot and cutting corners as with having all the NPCs being Toads, overall making this "Mario another one" instead of a memorable game - no, I'm not doing THAT, I'm just being ironic.

      Good points, besides Peach calling the guards by name and asking how their families are doing. That's just fucking ridiculous, would you do that if you got Kidnapped? Start some casual conversation with enemies of your kingdom?

    • @TaylorOnyx123
      @TaylorOnyx123 8 лет назад +8

      Even if she did talk to them, I don't think the conversations would be friendly. Imagine being kidnapped every so often by the same person, you'd be pretty angry, I'm sure. Just my opinion though. Maybe you just see something in the idea I don't.

    • @demilung
      @demilung 8 лет назад +9

      Well, in this fairy tale land where the same guy can kidnap the Princess of the kingdom over and over again, and everyone being extremely casual about it, something like this could happen. I mean, in original Paper Mario, Peach was pretty friendly with her captors already, she could be on first name basis with them by this time. Anyway, I was just talking about a way of making this a real joke and not just stating what is happening, while figuratively rolling back your eyes. I mean, if we talk sence, Toads wouldn't be talking so casually, as they did in the game. Saying "Oh, hi Bob, how's the wife?" to the same guy that tried to rob your store a dozen time is exactly what would happen in a comedy.
      If you don't like any of the examples I've given, here's another one: Peach gets thrown in the cell, sits on the bed, pulls a book from under the pillow and continues reading from where she left it last time she was captured.

    • @TaylorOnyx123
      @TaylorOnyx123 8 лет назад +1

      Cookie V.3 Plus from what we learn from the Shy Guy on the train in the game Bowser's forces are just a bunch of regular folks. Peach is so nice she'd totally strike up a conversation with her guards. Heck the only reason they wouldn't let her go is they don't want to face Bowser's wrath.

    Reading some of these comments, I feel that the Paper Mario series is going down the same road that the Sonic games have. It seems like the developers are trying so hard to appease all the fans by trying so many new things, that it's just fracturing the fanbase even further. You have the people who like the more RPG-style of the first two, you have the people who like the sidescrolling-gameplay of SPM, and, of course, the people who like the more Super Mario-esque style of SS and CS. I'm not gonna deny that I'm a fan of TTYD (it's really fun, but not without its flaws), but it feels like ever since SPM (which i also enjoy quite a bit), the fanbase seemed to stop being eye-to-eye with each other, and now everybody has a different idea of what Paper Mario should be (its not as bad as the Sonic series, but you get my point).
    Or maybe I'm wrong and I'm looking WAY too deep into this. I dunno, I'm sure everyone in the comments will let me know in a nice and polite way.
    P.S. Christ, this was WAY too long.

SO I wouldn't mind. and I've been a fan since TTYD.

    • @Altoryu
      @Altoryu 8 лет назад +2

      Sonic is going downhill cause Sega as a whole is insecure about Sonic as a franchise and never take a chance when they think they have something good. Colors could have been a series, Generations could have been a series, even Lost World could have been a series but because of Sega's lack of faith in it's own franchise, they keep tearing everything to the ground and redesigning everything which is why we ended up with the abomination that was Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric

    • @jeremyknight9980

      the Sonic fan thing is very true. I'm a Sonic fan and I see stuff like that all the time. some people were even disapointed with Project 2017 for not being Sonic Adventure 3. Although, I do see why people compare the paper Mario fanbase to the Sonic fanbase. because of how hostal people get when someone criticizes the games. it's not just Sticker Star and COlor SPlash. it's also 64, TTYD and SUper. As someone that ended up liking Color SPlash. I'll be optimistic with what they do with the next game. rather it'll be Sticker Star 3 or TTYD 2. I'll be fine either way. since CS showed me that the SS gameplay style can work.

    ...Jirard, I love ya man, but you really should've played the rest of the series before this one. Comedy is a central pillar in the PM series, even 64, but more apparent in each successive entry. And TTYD is universally regarded as being the best. Please, even if not for the show, go play TTYD, Super, and SS, and then you'll have a better idea about why people love the first three, and why they have issues with the last two.

    "you wouldn't associate paper Mario with funny, let alone a Mario title", Jirard, you need to play Thousand Year Door and Super Paper Mario. While this game is overall better than Sticker Star in some areas, the biggest problem is still the fact that this isn't an RPG, its just a turn based action game. It's not what Paper Mario truly is/was any more and that's why so many people are disappointed with it. What brings even more pain to long time fans is that there are people that like Sticker Star/Color Splash and don't care for the older games. Now, people can like what ever they want and enjoy what ever they want. That's always ok and fine and no one should tell anyone what they can and can't enjoy. But where the pain for older fans comes in is that if Nintendo sees people are ok with these changes that were forced upon the series (even if its not all fans, just that anyone is ok) they will keep on making games that don't fit the mold of what fans of the older games wanted and thereby we become disappointed because the games we knew and love aren't there any more. Maybe some aspects are still there but the package just isn't the same. And that just feels bad. Thanks for at least trying to look at this game objectively. I can only hope that we see a game that has this level of presentation in the future but returns to a standard Mario RPG formula.

      Hey, I've been around since TTYD and I like Color SPlash. sure it has some issues. but I think it's just as fun as the older games. but it'll be interesting to see what they'll do with the next Paper Mario game. either it'll be Sticker Star 3, TTYD 2 or a mix of both.

      its Black Friday he always reviews a new nintendo game on Black Friday besides this isn't the only franchise he has done out of order calm down TYD isn't that great I replayed it recently before getting color splash and it wasn't quite the game I remembered so of the problems I complained to fanboys of the game about like back tracking wasn't quite as bad as I remember but the charicters didn't have as much personality as I thought they did outside of their main chapters -_- Also playing a lot harder rpgs have made the game a complete joke to me :( Serously how did I ever find this game challenging? Color Splash has it's problems but so does every Paper Mario but I've enjoyed all of them except Sticker Star and that's because all of them besides Sticker Star were fun is Color Splash as serous as the first 3 no but it is funny as hell and unlike sticker star the paint mechanic alone makes the cards more interesting than the stickers because you have to consider whether or not it's safe to use your biggest atacks because they use a lot of paint and that could leave you high and dry later

    The lack of experience points, making fights pointless, and the fact that all NPCs are nothing but toads instead of the variety we had in the first two Paper Mario games really hamper the game.

    The Problem with the Card system in fact is the following:
    There is no reason to fight. What do you get? Color and Money. You dont Need Color if you dont fight, and all you need money for is to buy cards, but you already used cards to fight, so in the end, it sums up to 0 effect. And in an RPG it is kinda bad, if you have no reason to fight, because usually they are defined by their battlesystems.

      It's basically a more elaborate take on that story. "Princess kidnapped go save, but you've got people to talk to this time around". I feel it gets a pass, being the first game in the series. Kind of like how one would say "If Sonic's all about speed, explain Marble zone and Labyrinth zone from the *very first* game", you see?

      VonFirflirch I wouldn't think being the first game gives it a pass, but whatever. It doesn't matter, it's still open to criticism. Especially with Sonic the Hedghog breaking its own rule in the first game. That's a problem which shouldn't be overlooked just because it's the first one. I could understand if it was due to technical limitations, but that's not the case with Paper Mario OR Sonic.

    To me, this was one of the funniest games I've played in a long time - not just smile and keep going funny, actual laugh out loud funny. It's not without flaws, but it's a step towards a Paper Mario that I could see myself sticking with, since Nintendo is hell-bent on avoiding a true to form Paper Mario RPG now. If this style is polished up more, and we keep getting the lengthy subplots to connect levels together in the old Paper Mario style, it can work.
    I know, I'm not a real fan now for saying that, crucify me if you wish.

  • @Vikumax
    @Vikumax 8 лет назад +6

    In my opinion, the game itself is a lot of fun but feels like they focused in everything BUT the battle, the battle mechanics feels like an afterthought. Most set-pieces and interesting mechanics in this game ALL happen outside of battle.
    Battles really become repetitive and end up dragging the game just wishing we can reach the next charming and hilarious set pieces.
    Part of me feels that if they didn't want to use the old PM battle gameplay they should have gone action RPG and it'd have been perfect.

  • @MarioBrosFan
    @MarioBrosFan 8 лет назад +25

    Regardless of how the developers consider Color Splash an "action-adventure" game, its turn-based battle system is derived from RPG games. With that in mind, an RPG-esque battle system where your basic attacks are finite does not work well in Paper Mario. Intelligent Systems may have nailed it with Fire Emblem, but here it's cumbersome, especially because it didn't need that extra limitation in the first three games.
    Also, Nintendo seems to enjoy addressing the fans' issues with story elements by making ironic remarks to them, instead of fixing these issues.
    * Fans are tired of the Bowser-kidnaps-Peach routine? Quote from a Toad in Port Prisma: "Bowser just kidnapped Princess Peach! Nobody could have expected this!".
    * Fans complain that Toads are cowardly and useless? Quote from a Toad in Sunset Express: "(...) we've just been standing around waving our arms and blinking rapidly. Toads aren't really known for being proactive."
    This isn't how you make characters likable, nor how you fix the long-tarnished reputations of fan-least-favorite characters. I'm personally more lenient than most when it comes to these characters (I've certainly never wanted to mass murder Toads on the grounds of "being useless"), but even I get upset when I'm not given enough reason to sympathize with these people other than "I'm a good guy and I must save the day for the sake of everyone", because it makes the task at hand feel like a chore.
    On another note (not addressed in the video), how long does Nintendo plan to continue using silent protagonists in their games? Mario, Link, Ness and many others may have a lot of charisma from appearance alone, but they all have a serious case of "cardboard box syndrome". If I wanted my protagonist to be a reflection of myself, I'd play as my Mii. Silence is golden, sure, I get it. That means it's valuable. But silence, much like gold, is also fragile. If you rely on it too much, it'll make you look passive and it won't help you in making decisions (I would not choose Mario as group leader in a zombie apocalypse).

    I love your videos Jirard. I legitimately look forward to them every week. You produce really great stuff, and you put so much work into absolutely everything.
    That being said, I hope you and your writers can find a little more time each week to improve these scripts. I know what you're trying to say, and I can appreciate how stressful it must be to produce one of these videos every single week, but some of these lines still manage to be very poor. Here are just a few examples from this video:
    "Mario smacks the can with his hammer, to find out that the can is actually a living being called Huey the Paint Can, the guardian of the Paint Fountain"
    "The completion bonus is okay at best, you'll still walk away feeling pretty super rewarded"
    "The secret ending will leave a smile on your face and give you a nice happy button to the entire experience"
    "How about a piggy-bank that turns into a break-dancing piggy-bank with crazy backgrounds"
    "A plunger that sexually plunges its way onto the battlefield"
    "When the game gets creepy, the music gets creepy with it, and you feel creeped out"
    "And Color Splash does this like the colors of the rainbow"
    "With Color Splash, I feel like there are a lot of wonderful things in here, with a dash of bad stuff. And the dash isn't too bad either, it's just not as exciting as you'd want it to be"
    "The more paint stars you collect from the levels, the more levels that will open up on the over-world hub. They're marked off by the colors of the stars you collected, and eventually the whole thing will tie together like a beautiful map"
    I know this is very nit-picky, and I know most people wouldn't have even noticed, but it honestly destroys the pacing of your videos for me. Some additional proof-reading could have gone a long way in improving this script.
    I still love your work though. Keep it up!

      They seem to think that fans will really warm up to this battle system if they make it really pretty and slap some self-referential humor in there. This game would actually be a lot better if they just slapped SPM's combat system onto it in a 3D environment. Then you wouldn't have to slog through boring battles to be just a few coins better than you were before. You'd be able to appreciate the great visuals more. And the game wouldn't require so much padding if they didn't have to account for so many people just blowing through it because they hate the battle system.

I haven’t played a thousand year door and probably won’t until it’s ported or on some switch virtual console, but the writing in color splash is way better than paper or super paper mario, and the battle system was honestly pretty engaging outside of two boss battles where I just ran out of cards and had to go to a roshambo temple to grind for coins. Absolutely worth buying at the clearance prices most wiiu games are going for now.

    I was at first very skeptical about playing this game after having finished Sticker Star (100% completion as well). The worst thing was that Nintendo gave very little reason to actually fight enemies, which is a key feature in any Mario RPG. In many ways, Nintendo FIXED every problem that players had with Sticker Star, which to me was lack of story, characters, and papery goodness. Unlike Sticker Star, Color Splash is DRENCHED in character and hours of fun gameplay. I had a ton of fun, and for anyone who isn't into 100% competing it, just finishing it will be a blast.
    I personally tried to 100% this game, with everything done except collecting every battle and enemy card. That was super tedious and it took away from the actual fun this game has. If you're picking up this game looking for a fun time, just play it. Don't waste your time on the museum or RoShamBo temples unless you're in it for the long haul.

    This game is way worse than a lot of reviewers are making it sound. It's painful to battle in this game, as it's so poorly designed.

    • @TheBitBlock
      @TheBitBlock 8 лет назад +3

      Atleast Sticker Star had battles that I could stand, whereas Color Splash has the most painful battle design in any PM game.

    • @TheBitBlock
      @TheBitBlock 8 лет назад +1

      Using buttons does not take away from the fact that there are way too many steps to make a simple battle command. It also doesn't add in partners and more interesting element to the battle structure as a whole. The battling in Color Splash is worse than it has ever been in any PM game.

    • @TheBitBlock
      @TheBitBlock 8 лет назад +1

      It didn't, but that was a handheld PM, not a mainline game. The stickers were also way better than the boring cards.

      Trevor Grover - Well, he completes games weekly, he reviews a Mario game every black Friday, and he was given this specific game by Nintendo. So, he probably already had a list of games that he planned to complete on a weekly basis, this specific game fell perfectly into his Black Friday routine, then he skipped the rest to played this game out of respect for the company who gifted it to him.

    He took as the game it is: a beautiful game with an incredible story, funny and fantastic dialogue and, of course, not a very great battle system, that I think it's that: just not so great...

    Something that Jirad didn't mention is that compared to the other games, Color Splash has more instant kills (Other then bosses killing you with one barrage of attacks dealing loads of damage, I mean hazards or failing objectives types of instant kills) then every other game in the Paper Mario series combined.

    I can't be the only one who thinks TTYD is overrated to hell and back. Don't get me wrong, it's a great game but people just don't shut the fuck up about it. TTYD this TTYD that. It's not even the best Mario RPG. I'm gonna get a lot of shit for saying this but Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story is better! It's combat system is everything TTYD is but more refined, and doesn't have that dumb stage hazard stuff, not mention playing as Bowser. It was essentially two play styles in one game. The world of M&L:BIS feels just as alive and is just as jam full of witty writing and fun characters. The only thing I would give TTYD over M&L:BIS is the buddy mechanic. Don't get me wrong, having Luigi as the second character is cool and all, It's just having new friendly face in the mushroom kingdom felt better.
    Look I get nostalgia is a strong factor, and I get that combing nostalgia with a good game and years of series drought can form some real explosive anger, but it's time to stop comparing everything to the TTYD. Hell just please shut up about TTYD entirely.

    • @LiveLXStudios
      @LiveLXStudios 8 лет назад +19

      Its not nostalgia. Me and my friends had another friend play TTYD without ever playing another game in the series this past year and he loved it much more than the handheld Mario RPGs.
      Sticker Star and Color Splash abandon everything the previous games did well. All Color Splash does is add in self-referential humor and memes to try and act like the charm and humor return.

    • @IceLena
      @IceLena 8 лет назад +4

    • @noahtoad4095
      @noahtoad4095 8 лет назад +3

    This game was an amazing experience for me to 100% and I am glad you also completed it Jirard. This game gets lashed out on for no reason, it's not TTYD, people need to just expand their views on games and take the game for what it is. Nintendo is a company not afraid to try out new ideas with their franchises, which is a good thing. Congratulations again on completing it!

    This is EXACTLY what I don't want. It's how Sticker Star was, the level system is boring, and the combat is boring. Cool comedy, but I'm not playing Heavy Rain or that kind of game. I'm playing a Mario game. Thousand Year door was way better, Super Paper Mario had a better world design and story. This is literally Sticker Star2 everything you say convinces me of that. Even when you say "it's not a card game dont worry!!!" No it's exactly what we said was going to be wrong with it.
