shitter star and tutorial team can be forgotten about now

So far, I'm disappointed. From what I'm seeing, this hardly seems to be anything more than Sticker Star pandering. Even in spite of most people in the fandom wanting to forget that game ever existed (due to it single-handedly ruining the Paper Mario series), they still continue to shove it in peoples' faces, and act as if the previous three games never existed. Adding insult to injury, they made Bowser the main villain again, despite already filling that role in two other RPGs recently (one in which they wasted the potential of a perfectly good, original villain just to make Bowser look good in front of his fanboys).

this will be the first non-numbered M&L entry

confirmed amiibo support for a majority of the mario character figures

the generic toads are triggering PTSD-like flashbacks of shitter star to me

At this point, I have little to no hope that this game is going to be any good, nor do I have much (if any) faith that things will ever go back to normal for the RPGs ever since Sticker Star came along and ruined everything. So, you know what? As far as I'm concerned, the RPG series is dead to me at this point.

this is looking to be yet another generic mario experience, dosen't look like any non-generic characters bar starlow will be in as all i'm seeing is generic toad NPCs, the usual "boozor stoled my peech" plot of 30 years and counting, generic enemies, the map is unusually small for mario RPG fare, and it has the generic archetypes of generic mario level design of the NSMB games

on the upside this is toadette's first RPG appearance in 11 years, if that matters at all

mario's RPG department has developed cancer and needs attention immediately

As much of a piece of garbage as this game is shaping up to be so far, I do have a small glimmer of hope that Antasma will make a cameo that foreshadows his return in the next installment, much like what happened with Fawful in Partners in Time.

3:24 king bob-omb, they still remember him? i know he makes rare appearance in spinoffs
4:01 nabbit
4:08 koopalings
4:38 ant troopers from SM3DW

some good can come from miyamoto's "established characters" song and dance if they only extend their reach to other mario characters beyond the main cast of mario+luigi+peach+bowser+toads and generic enemies

we've been getting mario RPGs for 17 years and a large part of the cast and rogue's gallery is still yet to appear in a mario RPG

Since the game is clearly finished, you'd think they'd want to get it out in time for the Christmas season. Not that getting this game is anywhere near my "top priority" list, of course. Admittedly, it's looking a little better than it did during E3, but I'm sure as hell not expecting anything extraordinary.

first time something from M&L crossed over to a PM game was chuckola cola in TTYD, however that instance was completely NoA's idea, perhaps more on the grounds of censorship than anything

in all other releases of TTYD, it was an unrelated bottle of wine

There was also one other instance at the Whoohoo Hooniversity in Superstar Saga, which had different variants of the "?" Block, including the style from the first Paper Mario.

euro players are uploading gameplay to the utoobs, and all i can say now is that it might as well be called "new super mario RPG feat. paper mario" or "paper toad rescue simulator 2015/16" or "mario & luigi minigame jam feat. paper mario"

i noticed that toadsworth is curiously absent, and he's been in every M&L to date
i figured they benched him for toadette, after captain toad she'll probably be appearing in more games

also SPM has a fawful themed sammer guy

paper luigi was considered as a party member, but was sat out from the adventure again over player control difficulties

M&L/PM series original characters were left out by choice over storytelling difficulties, rather than just following shitter star's lead
