Was There Anything Wrong with Paper Mario?

[CodyMarkBrian]

NO. No there wasn't. Paper Mario introduced a whole new side to Mario. (Pun very much intended) It brought us new humor, and great new characters that we all love. It also paved the way for 3 (at the present time) sequels to be spawned. I would like to know if anyone didn't like it, or if you did, what did you like about it?

I did not appreciate the sheer amount of dialog in that game. It kind of ruined the flow of the game and was the reason I stopped playing the series eventually. Same issue with the portable Mario & Luigi RPG games (I consider Paper Mario and Mario & Luigi the same series, more or less, since they're so similar to Super Mario RPG on SNES).

I see no issues with this series. I mean I really like Paper Mario because it's sort of random. Besides I play RPGmaker games - massive blocks of dialog are just something you get used to. Also I apparently like reading. My Skyrim home has a simply massive library in stock.

I agree with crunchy.
I never finished Paper Mario because the dialogs got annoying.

I'm thinking of giving the game another try one of these days.

 

[Esperahol]

If you do give it another try then try speeding up the dialog. That should be an option - it is in most games of the type.

 

[averus]

I might

I usually don't mind dialogs (I'm a Final Fantasy fan, so that says enough) but I guess I wasn't in the right mood when I tried playing PM last time

 

[Esperahol]

That's funny - because I'm not actually all that fond of FF as a game, but I had no issue with all the dialog in PM. Fanny Dooley I guess.

It's pretty awesome, I don't really understand people who hate on it..

I'm not a massive fan of the original paper mario, but the sequal (The Thousand Year Door) is in my top favorite games. What a good game.

The one that came out for the Wii wasn't terrible either, but I couldn't reproduce the feeling that the second one gave off.
