Are we really going to—“ ”I SAID DO IT!” ”Y-yes sir!” EDIT: Sunnuva bitch. Edited May 14, 2020 by Tyranogre Quote Link to comment

Link, the Hero of Dreams Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Please be good. Please. You’ve hit rock bottom before. What’s the worse that can happen? purple_beard 1 Quote Link to comment
purple_beard Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) This looks amazing. Finally something that actually feels different. ************** I wonder if there is something to the DK and Samus heads at the very end of that trailer. Edited May 14, 2020 by purple_beard Quote Link to comment

Eliwood8 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Well I didn't see any stickers, so that's a good sign. The battle system looks kind of fun too, with the whole ring-battlefield and lining up enemies to hit them all at once. Reminds me of Radiant Historia. Quote Link to comment
Art_de_Cat Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 That looks really cool! Staying optimistic! Quote Link to comment
EH_STEVE Posted May 14, 2020 Author Share Posted May 14, 2020 So I'm assuming this MAY have been an E3 announcement, even though that would only have been a month before release. But does anyone think we can expect to see more random trailer drops in the near future? Or do you think we'll get a Direct next month? Quote Link to comment

Well, you gotta have that Smash Direct for the ARMS (and.... ) character drop. Quote Link to comment
Carl321 Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I had assumed Sticker Star was going to be more of the franchise I loved from the RPG elements. I was wrong. Very wrong. I got burned pretty bad. This? This looks better. I'm optimistic but not at all going to trust it until enough reviews and information comes out. I refuse to get burned again. Even if this has basic RPG elements the recent entries have been pretty soulless using generic... everything. Here's hoping this entry puts the franchise back on track. I'm most excited for that Samus thing at the end! Don't... don't give me hope... Quote Link to comment

Ithrak Utopia Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 In the trailer, Mario uses Shiny Boots, which I'm thinking are an upgrade to the regular Jump Boots. I think an upgrade system for actions like the Jump and Hammer is a great change in direction following the previous two entries' temporary sticker system. Partners seem like they are sorta back. It would be nice visually to see them in the battle with Mario as opposed to regulated as battle option commands to the right (if that's the case as I've only seen Japanese battle footage). It would also be nice to see uniquely designed characters around the world again outside of Olivia and Olly. The humor and clothing items will help generic species stand out from one another, but it's still not quite right. I'm very interested though and this will be a must buy for me depending on how its battle and reward system pan out. I was unsure if I liked what appears to be another stage based adventure again. Seeing the trailer a few times over now, that's where the personality of the game really shines much like it did apparently in Color Splash. A more cohesive world like in Thousand Year Door likely wouldn't give them as much creative freedom as this approach. I'm fine with sacrificing a connected world for more diverse environment designs and potentially out of battle gameplay mechanics. It would be epic if those character specific headgear were really useful against enemies that could reference those game series. For example, the Samus helmet could be very useful against enemies found in a secretive lab out in a desert where Toads are researching green origami Goombas. Quote Link to comment
The Albraskan Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Well unlike Color Splash, I might give this one a try. I miss playing Paper Mario, even if this is more of the likes of Sticker Star and Color Splash over the original and TTYD. Quote Link to comment
bel Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 this looks pretty great from the trailer ngl Quote Link to comment
Tyranogre Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 So is Origami Bowser going to be a "partner" in the traditional sense? That yellow guy seems more like an expy of Kersti and Huey. Quote Link to comment
April Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) As always, they're so creative with the design gimmick, but this is a surprisingly gameplay-free gameplay trailer from Nintendo Shiny boots looks like a sticker to me. Badges and boot upgrades never had the name pop up on screen. I'm not optimistic on that note lol At least there's somebody other than Mario walking around, but origami fairy thing is gonna be a damn useless navi character. i can feel it in my soul. The world definitely seems more interesting, though, and it's nice to see characters with some unique flair instead of the copy-paste shit they've been doing the last few years. Other than all the damn toads in that stadium shot anyway lmao Edited May 14, 2020 by Pichi Ithrak Utopia 1 Quote Link to comment
