Playing TTYD today was kinda of the most surprised i was with a "retro" game, because even the ones i truly adored had some sort of thing that the time made it worse, in this one, even almost 20 years later, that is not true, Paper Mario TTYD is a true masterpiece even you are playing it today and that speaks for itself.

Is hard to know how to even start describing this game, everything is so on point, it's so creative and overflowing with personality all over the place , all your companions have great narratives, all the places have great story, there are tons and tons of different things happening, the peach and tek parts are wonderful, playing as bowser is so much fun, i laugh so many times with the smart anecdotes and forth wally stuff, such great writing. If 64 was great this one ups a level with everything and everyone being useful, helpful and fun.

Even the combat, that for me is always a drag as a jrpg, got better because of it's community, because they love it so much that the message of a fun way to play the game got to me, i did the so called "Danger Mario" and boy oh boy was fun to one shot every single one of the final bosses, no need to take turns if you're overpowered as heck.

it's a shame nintendo cut down on the series personality, but hey, you can still play this one today as a new one and you'll get the best experience in the same way as 20 years ago.
