As my first Paper Mario it was a great surprise to see how creative and fun the writing was, with moments of true laugh and veeery sad ones (you know which ones), that was a delight.

The puzzle system is good, the boss fights were very interesting and sometimes i needed some time to figured it out, the things is, apart from that, the game drags this system for too long with random repetitive encounters that honestly i just wanted to avoid it, it wasn't even a puzzle anymore.

So yea, really good writing, good "combat" system, but only well executed on the boss, the game would be better if it were shorter, and also, let's stop with random encounters in any game, it's just not good
