back when i did a blind playthrough, i originally thought dimentio's claim of making himself 256x stronger in the chapter 3 fight was true, so i then proceeded to not get hit a single time in the fight because i thought one hit would kill me instantly
I also love how each fighter has their own personality. Nintendo really didn’t need to add so much detail, especially given the last 80 aren’t gonna be fought by most players, yet they still did.
In a story sense, which is where SPM shines most to me, hearing Ch6 bashed and Francis' Peach scene too was crestfalling. Those are great moments in this game which is full of quirky humor and immense stakes.
Things like O Chunk’s built-in grab counter and Bone Chill’s infamous Luigi cheese make me believe a difficulty hack of SPM would be pretty interesting. Something that’d add anti-cheese tactics like permanent icicles to Bone Chill’s ceiling or more HP for bosses (a vast majority of them have less HP than Muths, which I find kind of interesting?) I haven’t seen much modding with SPM though, I don’t know how much we’re capable of making with it yet
Yeah, that would be cool. Making O chunks ungrabable because of his size, giving bonechill a spike helmet, raising the health and attack damage of bosses and some enemies, and just generally removing cheese all throughout the game
8:27 There's actually a really cool detail I only noticed in a recent replaying of this game that makes Francis so much easier to beat. I used to think it was just part of the music, but if you listen you can actually hear Francis walking around the room and can get a good idea of where he'll show up. You can also go into 3D with Mario and see his shadow on the ground as well.
Grinding is a little boring but actually really easy with a certain trick. In the first level when you get to the big star area run through everything but make sure a single coconut shooting guy is alive. Repeatedly trick off the coconuts without touching the ground and your score will skyrocket
I never understood why people disliked this game. I thought it was awesome, and I was a kid at the time who was a hardcore fan of TTYD, so even though the gameplay was completely different I thought it was still an amazing game.
@@thezygardiantrio9434 but it was the third paper mario game and ttyd wasn't that long before super. And super tries to mix rpg elements and standard mario gameplay and I think it works. I think people blame super for us getting sticker star and color splash
My best explanation is that it has Paper in the title, which sets expectations. But the actual game surprisingly has none of the Paper elements, meaning it possibly could have received much better reception with a title like... Super 2D Mario, or something.
I very much so enjoyed this video! I know it might take a lot of effort but this is very entertaining! The sticker Star one also grabbed my attention and was super good! Please keep it up!
The small Sammer Guys can be beaten with a well timed Cudge smack. They run right up to Bowser's knees and into range at the perfect time to get whacked.
I ain't sure how this got into my recommended as I only just got my SPM interest back- The fact you can just pick up and throw some of the bosses always amused me- Like just keep hold of them what can they do? They're grabbed.
Best story of any Mario game. Period. The world is going to end because society can't handle an interracial couple. Mario needs to help, but he can't because he's saddled with crippling debt. There's a mini Mario civil war with brother against brother. A Flower King goes insane because of pollution and decides to get even by brainwashing the dolts that poisoned him. Mario goes to heck. Then God and Satan decide to put a deity in the form of a child....hmmm. That sounds familiar. Mario takes a break and helps two old wizards swap some questionable media. After overcoming all of that and finding their way back to each other, the interracial couple is rewarded with the sweet embrace of death. Oh. And Bowser's bounce sound is super cute.
You didn't need to get Piccolo for the underchomp part, all you need is one thunder rage to instakill all 3 of them in the very first turn. You were very dedicated by trying to get Piccolo for so long, and you didn't realise you only needed the thunder rage. But I respect the work you put into doing that because it's pain.
I really liked SPM, just as much as TTYD. It was polarizing, but I really liked the real-time combat / platforming. Also, Bowser/Carrie was broken AF. The game was absolutely not balanced for Bowser's damage output, and making him more mobile and able to use his fire in the air was stupidly powerful.
Man the worst part of this would be having to actually wait for your flip timer to recharge. Aside from the pit this game is so easy I just use my health bar as extra 3d time
I remember I was confused and a little annoyed that SPM was different than TTYD, but that very quickly changed and I remember adoring this game. I absolutely loved it. Sticker Star on the other hand, was a joke. I couldn’t even finish it. I hope Nintendo have learned the difference between “people complained because it was different” and “people complained because it sucked” at this point. Nintendo has used up a lot of their good graces in recent years.
back when i was on chapter 1-3, fighting o'chunks, i discovered an interesting softlock. i just jumped on him several times, but then when he was dead, he FLOATED to the other side of the screen, softlocking the game. I don't know whatever the hell caused this XD
Throughout the entire game I've always wondered. Why doesn't Bleck come down here and kill me himself? Why send your henchmen to do it when you are literally invulnerable unless I have all the pure hearts? Also if Natasha brainwashed Luigi to be a villain like Mr. L. Were the other henchmen brainwashed as well?
Bleck was following the Dark Prognosticus, which probably mentioned a climactic final battle between himself and the heroes. Maybe he thought he was guaranteed to win? The other henchmen were not brainwashed. Mimi was an experiment gone wrong and she cursed the world for that. O'Chunks was betrayed by his men (he was a general) and Nastasia almost died and Bleck saved her (I think). Dimentio obviously wasn't either because he's his own boss. I think they follow Bleck because they owe him.
General reminder that if you love suffering, you could do the pit of 100 trials Edit 3 months later: i did Flipside Pit of 100 trials after chapter 4 (can do it pre chapter 4/post chapter 3 but i died so i took the extra points ans resources lmao), and did round 1 of the Flopside pit. Honestly doing those no hit sounds beyond insane, I'm bad at 2D mario combat so i always get random hits on me causing me to need to use a bunch of healing items in thr pit
Now I could tell you that you could have used slim and a gold bar to glitch your way into flopside early to get block-blocks to make into block meals as soon as slim is unlocked but that might have been a little TOO cheesy.
Actually I think 7-1 is the shortest also u can use Thodey on blooper in addition bombs and 3D are best tactic for scammer guys also just using a shooting star defeats the underchomp
3:31 it's called a washing machine 4:38 arent those crystal stars... 5:39 ayo? 8:09 omegalul 8:39 ill let this one slide 8:51 again.... its a crystal star 10:46 man just has kingdom hearts on the brain... im not gonna mention it any more 11:46 cludge 13:33 i think this is like cheating because he is spiky and you jumped 17:35 walking into walls now 23:05 i see many dimentios actually 23:34 uuuh if he has no pixels then how are we seeing him on the screen... 26:26 cheating cheating cheating 27:18 not in the description lmao
*chapter 1-2* Wait a minute... Are you telling me... That there was always... A shortcut... AT THE BEGINNING OF THAT LEVEL?! And here i was thinking that all this time you had to actually go through the full level just to revisit that town! 😂
I wonder if anyone could ever beat the entire game no damage, with no resetting besides the first chapter. Meaning, you take damage, you start the ENTIRE game over! Haha
Don’t mean to be that guy, but this is for any possible future runs of this game. Dimentios clones have the black half and white half of his face swapped. Great video though. Made me want to play the game again.
Although I really like this game, and probably consider it my personal favorite, I don't understand how people consider this better than something like Origami King gameplay wise
Origami King has my least favorite gameplay in the entire series. The battles are so repetitive, tiresome, and monotonous. There aren’t even that many attacks you can do which makes the battles feel even more boring. At least with Sticker Star’s gameplay (which people consider to be the worst gameplay) there’s a big variety of attacks that you could do and it doesn’t feel tiresome battling enemies, and I at least had somewhat of a reason to battle some of the enemies since I could get rid of some of the stickers that I have in order to make room for more (and maybe even better) stickers that I would find later on in the level AND get rid of those enemies at the same time and get some coins by doing so. Honestly Origami King’s gameplay and story are the main reasons why I don’t like that game and why it’s probably my least favorite Paper Mario game.
There’s a shortcut in 1-2… I have a 100% save file for this game and I did not know about that until literally just now… Wow do I feel stupid. Edit: WAIT YOU CAN PICK UP BOMBS??? Why must be stuck playing this game the same way I did at like 8 years old???
back when i did a blind playthrough, i originally thought dimentio's claim of making himself 256x stronger in the chapter 3 fight was true, so i then proceeded to not get hit a single time in the fight because i thought one hit would kill me instantly

It's a double-edged joke, actually. Both the spelled-out "it power boosts EVERYONE in the dimension", and the more subtle integer-wraparound joke.
Same here.
@@WackoMcGoose raising power by 256 times crashes paper mario
@@noahmaldonado5461haha
I’ve always liked 6-1. It’s tedious, but it was really cool with how urgent it was with the vortex ominously growing behind the fights.
I also love how each fighter has their own personality. Nintendo really didn’t need to add so much detail, especially given the last 80 aren’t gonna be fought by most players, yet they still did.

O'Chunks puts Melee Marth's grab to shame.
Man you make Count Bleck look so easy. Good job, mate. This was great

I thought the same! Would be awesome if like the veggie O'chunks had Dimentio alongside him, Brobot had x2,5 hp....
Yeah, that would be cool. Making O chunks ungrabable because of his size, giving bonechill a spike helmet, raising the health and attack damage of bosses and some enemies, and just generally removing cheese all throughout the game
@@zanmolecules4105 Yeah, like for instance, the easy brobot laser attack can do like 8 damage bcps its so slow

bear in mind Carrie is required to get the proper jump duration for this to become infinite, so beating chapter 3 first is all but required
I never understood why people disliked this game. I thought it was awesome, and I was a kid at the time who was a hardcore fan of TTYD, so even though the gameplay was completely different I thought it was still an amazing game.
I think it’s because its more of a platformer than an RPG like the rest of the Paper Mario games

@@Fungo4 This would've made sense because the whole gimmick is you can flip to 3D so yeah Super 2D Mario would've been a fine name
The 'Paper' in Paper Mario was never meant to be taken literally. Like SPM, PM64 also has no paper elements.
2:09 stop making me want O'Chunks in Super Smash Bros.
I like that TTYD jab.
Really wish this game had a harder difficulty. They really could've leaned into bullet hell mechanics if they wanted to
The first Paper Mario game I've ever played. I love it
Never knew you could throw boomer neat
Bowser isn't required for thudley it just seems like that becuase Bowser is big and stuff like that and Bowser actually has the lowest Girth score.
There were a lot of cheese strats that I had no idea about in this video. Subbed for the interesting content.
I’m glad you did no items because block block would trivialise it the second you’re able to buy them
Those final boss strats are pretty epic not gonna lie
I very much so enjoyed this video! I know it might take a lot of effort but this is very entertaining! The sticker Star one also grabbed my attention and was super good! Please keep it up!
18:19 BOWSER'S AAAAAARMS!!!!!
Now I wouldnt call this no-hit run considering you have been "hitting" save block
Honestly, whenever I play this game, I just exclusively play as Bowser riding Carrie unless I need an ability from another character or Pixl.
The small Sammer Guys can be beaten with a well timed Cudge smack. They run right up to Bowser's knees and into range at the perfect time to get whacked.
Amazing challenge 😄. Great video
Great job! Now you need to do the Flipside AND Flopside pit of 100 trials!
I ain't sure how this got into my recommended as I only just got my SPM interest back-
The fact you can just pick up and throw some of the bosses always amused me- Like just keep hold of them what can they do? They're grabbed.
Going to the underworld for the first game technically does damage, but it's required
12:56 sole difference in that 3rd O'Chunks fight is he is a lot faster than in the 2nd fight if you don't corner him.

Nah like, this is the third best of the series at minimum. There may only be 3 good Paper Mario games, but that says something
Dimentio is really easy if you have items but I realized you didn't allow yourself to use items.
