Re: Paper Mario - Barrels Out Of Bond

The jungle is right around the point where the game takes off the training wheels I'd say. Most of the new enemies here have a pretty hefty amount of hp, and you are starting to regularly see larger groups of enemies to fight. The game is starting to expect you to make better use of the resources yo...

Re: Paper Mario - Over Hill and Under Hill

(backseating and exposition about status effects): Status moves in general are actually really good in this game - "if it works" is a concerning clause but you really only have to worry about status effects failing against bosses. Every FP-based status move that Mario can use is also stil...

Re: Paper Mario - At the Sign of the Prancing Pony

"that does not look like a sheep" Name of the item probably didn't originally refer to sheep and was changed by the loc (for the better, i'd say. there is an undeniable ring to Sleepy Sheep). It's actually "Sleep, My Little Prince" after the Japanese translation of this lullaby ...

Re: A Monkey plays Final Fantasy 9

FINAL FANTASY IX IS ON HIATUS DUE TO BURN-OUT, I'LL PROBABLY COME BACK TO THIS EVENTUALLY, BUT I CAN'T SAY WHEN Final Fantasy IX is the ninth (duh) main game released in the Final Fantasy series. In many ways, the game is basically a love letter to the series, featuring an absolute myriad of allusi...

Re: ラクガキ (Rakugaki) Mario - a suffragio populi

Where is the Blue Switch? Level By--- Heraga No one wanted to make switch palaces, so this was made very quickly at the end of development. For some reason the pipe color changes when Mario goes up, but it has no effect on the subscreen warp. The creator claims this level was inspired by Speedy Spe...

Re: BANJO-KAZOOIE - Making a Summer Salt

In a lot of ways, Click Clock Wood feels much more like a Tooie level rather than a Kazooie level, what with all the sequence of event style puzzles, but there's also a lot of surprisingly tough platforming here as well. In that regard, Click Clock Wood serves as probably the best example of the gam...

Re: BANJO-KAZOOIE - Making an Ugly Mistake

Shout-outs to the metal grate at the end of the water tunnel near the Rusty Bucket Bay puzzle,
and how many people never break it before they raise the water level, forever making it unbreakable.

It's technically one of the very few 'missables' in this game, and it's not even a collectible!

Re: Pikmin - Yellow Wollywog

It's been a while since we had such a civil thread where someone posted their opinion, others disagreed with it, and then the original poster changed their mind too. I think that at the end of the day, just let people play how they wanna play, some peeps enjoy raocow slowly learning how to play the ...

Re: Make a Good Level 4 - The Underworld

It just could do away with the unpredictable behaviour. Just speculating because I haven't played smoo hacks in about a decade: Based on the way pokey was acting during the trampoline-switch section, I don't think it was a case of pokey occasionally not going through the sprite-only blocks. I think...

Re: Here is the famous bucket.txt What inside do you look forward to the most ?

I think my number 1 has to be Diablo II I don't think I've ever played a game that has such a strong sense of aesthetic, well, other than Diablo 1 funny enough, still besides that, there's a reason why people are still addicted to this game two decades later, it's just incredibly fun and satisfying ...

Re: Spyro (2) - Rutabaga's Revenge

Closest thing to a complaint I have is getting platinum relics is atrociously hard if you're not playing a heavyweight - and they're already plenty hard if you are >.> Am I a no-life for thinking the opposite, that the Platinum Relics in CTR are all relatively simple?
