Same thing with TTYD boss iirc, but she wasn't quite as bad Link to comment

Same thing with TTYD boss iirc, but she wasn't quite as bad For me, it was the fact the Mario Bros. start the battle with 1 HP. Even though a final boss is supposed to be hard to beat, that is one of the most heinous ways to start a final showdown. Wasting a turn to heal from that is just inexcusable. I don't know if there is such a cheaper way to start a finale in an RPG. At least TTYD didn't have you worry about that. At least THE SHADOW QUEEN was a better villain and TTYD is an amazing game that remaking it would make it worse because of what they've done with the Paper Mario series currently. ... Sorry, I still have horrible memories of the original Superstar Saga because of that boss. I was probably around Pichi's age when I first battled it. The game is good, sour mind or not. ... ... ... I'll talk about that other game when I finally "nuke" it. I finally beat the final boss in Octopath Traveler. I felt empty defeating it just as much I felt preparing to defeat it. It's one of the most contradictory and obnoxious bosses of RPG history; so much so that it puts my hatred against Cackletta Soul to shame. Maybe playing Vesperia will make me feel better. The playable cast is quirky but engaging, and I found nothing wrong with the story so far. Maybe it's just me. Edited May 21, 2019 by XLW Link to comment
Stephen 776 Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I was never able to beat Superstar Saga*a final boss. Granted, I was like 12, but *shrug* Link to comment
Link, the Hero of Dreams Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 How strange is it that the three of us had really hard times with Cackletta around the same age? I feel better knowing that I'm not the only one who experienced this! Link to comment
Tyranogre Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I never beat the last Bowser fight in Paper Mario 64. Link to comment
April Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Yeah I mean 1hp was a little cheese but having heal-party items kinda nullifies all of that. It's really just cause they balanced the game assuming you were gonna get decent at action commands. Bit harder for kids to reach that level, though. Granted, you can just equip mush badges and item hoard your way to an easy victory lmao Link to comment
Spring Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 i recently started replaying superstar saga on the wii u bc after watching my SO play paper mario and smrpg, i was really in the mood to play a mario rpg again i only played through it once as a kid...but even so, i barely remember anything about it; i have much stronger memories of partners in time, i dunno why so far im loving going through it again, even tho im not that good at it Link, the Hero of Dreams, April and fuzz 3 Link to comment

I was not implying that. Both Moskau and Rasputin are original music used in Just Dance. (sorry I think I worded that wrong) 2. I was joking on that the music (not the video) was better. I was using the original music video because you did with Moskau. Both are good based on tastes. Edited May 21, 2019 by Kirbymeister2 Link to comment

April Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 yeah it's supposedly the turd of the series. the third one, Bowser's Inside Story, is usually praised, but I had a really bad first impression and returned it the next day lmao it started off with a side scrolling section but the jumping physics were suddenly terrible even though they're perfect in Saga. like... that's just something you can't mess up in a mario game man. but i was probably overreacting lol. idr how the battles felt Link to comment

April Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 man i have problems even finishing games i like sometimes. streaming helped a lot with that though Link to comment
Spring Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 i feel you on that, something about adulthood really hit my attention span for stories in games in particular unless there's something giving me a push to continue i have no problem spending HOURS playing games that are lacking in story, like risk of rain or slay the spire, but the second i even think about picking up the gamepad to play the mario game i'm actually excited to play i suddenly would rather make the bed or do the dishes than sit down and read for .5 seconds gamer life is suffering Link to comment
