Can You Beat Super Mario RPG Without Earning Experience, Money or Items?

- Super Mario RPG is one of the best games for the Super Nintendo, full of memorable characters and fun scenarios. So, since it's so good, I decided to play it in the worst way I could possibly imagine. I've turned off every reward from combat; experience, coins, you name it. And so the question simply becomes, can you beat Super Mario RPG without earning anything?
Thanks for watching! Back again, and about time too, and this time, I'm in the mood for some more nonsense. Next week will be even more nonsense, and you enjoy that kind of thing, I would sincerely appreciate if you Liked, Commented, Shared, and Subscribed!
And a massive thank you to my Patrons. Your kindness and generosity always amazes me. Thank you! / seergames

Play Super Hydlide without using a guide :)

"Continue playing games I love in the worst way possible" - *plays Barbarian* - yep, can't say he's lying to us
That's me playing any way in Diablo 4. I could play several of the other ARPG's that are fantastic and popping off, but I just keep doing the same shit in that slightly better bad game. FML

"Oh boy, this challenge should go nicely from here! Geno whirl can basically one-shot anything in the ga-"

Probably the most tragic part is that you can't perform this game's rite of passage: Geno Whirling Exor.
Fun fact, if magikoopa summons the bomb in his boss fight and it goes off, magikoopa bugs out and does nothing for the rest of the fight
That is a fun fact, I had no idea! Actually should've used that to my advantage lol
That is probably one of if not *the most* obscure smrpg fact I've ever heard. Extremely neat if that's true.
How do you know this?
Did not know Sky Troopa minigame gave frog coins. I thought the only renewable ways to get frog coins is by jumping on the sinkhole guys or the Wigglers in mushroom forest enough times and for the life of me I simply can not do that. Even after all of these years I am STILL learning new stuff about this game.
There's also the beetle catching thing you activate in seaside town to be done at booster hill. Gold ones get you frog coins. The Goomba thumping game in the Pipe Vault gets you frog coins after winning the flower tab and jar.
I'm so glad they made getting frog coins easier in the remake.
The fact that Bowser can wear the same style of pants as everyone else raises many, many questions.
They're either really large pants(for everyone else) or bowser is really good at squeezing
The Brotherhood of the Adventuring Pants
"Battles, they don't me give a single reward. I receive nothing from playing the game"
So it's if SMRPG was made with Sticker Star's gameplay philosophy
"Lamp oil, rope, bombs". I lost it.
You name it.
When Mario is knocked out, what Bowser is throwing is a Mario doll.
I guess he has standards about one thing. That's not to use a dead carcass as a weapon.
I love Super mario rpg because 1. It’s just a really damn solid jrpg even if it’s on the easy side and 2. It’s mechanics inherently make it an ideal game for challenge runs.
it is mechanics, isn't it??
@@cl8804lol
To my knowledge it is actually possible to skip all fights with the Heavy Troopas. For some reason you can walk behind all of them with the right positioning. Also the See Ya item is great for random encounters since you're guaranteed to run from them.
I like how because his strongest weapon has as much power as Peach's weakest, people say Bowser sucks. However, in a low level run, He's him.
i dont really leave comments that often anymore but i gotta leave one for this because its genuinely the funniest smrpg challenge run i've ever watched. very well done.
Thank you very much!
I've played this game multiple times but never knew about the perfect block. Now I see where TTYD super-gaurding comes from.
It shows up a lot easier in the remake and has a visual flare.
What a run and what a challenge! You certainly did a great job advertising SMRPG using most every mechanic you could outside of the... well the main ones.
I found your channel out of nowhere and you instantly shot up as one of my favorite TH-camrs. Your pacing and humor is insane, i love it
Most underrated and underappreciated creator dropping an hour long banger of a video, what a treat, thanks homie, keep up the great work
I absolutely LOVE your commentary! Instantly liked and subbed!
Thank you!
Amazing dedication. I knew the secret Jump buff would have to carry you, and I'd forgotten about Mushroom Boy giving Rock Candy. Stoked for the remake Friday!!!
Had this in my watch later for the whole week, watched it the minute I beat the remake. Worth the wait.
for future reference, star egg doesn't run no matter how many times you use it and does 100 to all enemies, so it's a good backup if you run out of rock candies or don't wanna go to mushroom guy as often.
This was a great video! I got some good laughs, learned new stuff about one of my favorite games of all time, and you earned a subscriber.
Regarding the jump ability, 255 is a very neat and common number to come across in games. This is usually assigned to an 8-bit value (byte) as 255 is the max value for that binary string (2 values to the power of 8 being 256, or better yet, binary 1111 1111 is equal to 255 and NOT 256)
Now back to the jump ability. It counts to 255 specifically because your 0th jump (not using it at all) counts as 1 integer as well. If the code were to cap at 256 instead of 255, that would add an extra integer value making it 257 total integers which an 8-bit memory storage (256 values again) wouldn’t be able to do, thus causing your jump count to reset back to 0 due to data overflow.
Since SMRPG is run on a 16-bit system, the console has the ability to retain current information equal to 16-bits (65,536 KB) or lower, and is why the jump counter and many other values can be tracked/discarded without the system crashing. (65,536 KB - 256 KB = 65,280 KB. That’s a mere fraction of data used just for the jump counter, and the rest is of course being used for other permanent/temporary resources)
The 16-bit memory on the console is what allows SMRPG to have the expanded graphics and gameplay it has compared to its preceding games. 16-bit addresses allowing increased depth and detail of the game, while the smaller 8-bit addresses are usually used for instant memory registration (like the jump counter again)
Pretty common CS knowledge, but I think I enjoyed pointing it out at least
It sort of makes me wonder what programming language SMRPG was written in, as it along with the hardware would have limited the size of the variables used. But it's still super neat that the Jump ability had this mechanic at all.
The answer to that is likely the same for most nes and snes games at the time: some version of the assembly programming language. It isn’t very user-friendly…
In Phantasy Star, The 8-bit console got around technical limitations by making Dark Falz have two instances of himself with 510 hp and he gets two attacks.
i appreciate the explanations for mundane features of the game. signed, the person who watched an hour long video on a game they know nothing about
this is the first video of yours I’ve seen and it definitely won’t be the last, awesome job!
Seer don't miss! Love your videos chief, keep 'em coming :)
The out of pocket side comments made this way more funny than it needed to be, gunna sub and go back to watch all your stuff man good shit
36:46 made me exhale a lot of air outta my nose for example
Man Bowser carried this run.
If only he was smart enough to realize he shoulda just abandoned the rest.
Bowser wins by doing absolutely everything.
have you ever considered doing a game from the mario&luigi games? I'm sure doing no stat increases or no sp moves would be a difficult enough challenge
Your commentary is hilarious and so fun to listen to! I'm super impressed that you finished this insane challenge holy
I love your commentary so much. You speak as if you’re a relative of AVGN.
My man, this may be one of the best challenge run videos I have ever watched on the ole' Yuuuutes. From the challenge idea itself to your voice, the writing, the delivery, the bloopers being left in, quick and sweet though so they don't get too repetitive, all while still being informative about a game I've indeed never played. I can't remember the last time I laughed this hard from watching a challenge run video. You truly have a talent for it, dude. Keep it up and you'll be hitting 100K+ subs in no time, I guarantee.
This is a very entertaining video. Makes me want to play Super Mario RPG again with restrictions, like only work pants
Thank you very much! I think it's a lot of fun to give games like this a try with modified rules. I also think the workpants% would be a fun thing to try lol
I'm 37 years old. But the rapid fire cussing aimed at a children's game that totally deserves it just makes me burst into laughter.
Thank you for your content. I genuinely love it.
Really enjoying these challenge videos, keep them coming!
This is truly a question I never asked but need answered immediately
Dang. This is REALLY good. Now i wanna play the remake
Banger upload, love the commentary
Everytime you make a video my day is immediately better, i looooove these challenges its so entertaining
Impressive, definitely thought I’d see the Star Egg at some point for insurance, but I’m not sure how much time that would save in the long run. Can’t wait to see the video of you doing this for the rerelease coming out on Friday and seeing if it’s possible to do this plus the post game with extra boss battles!
Man Booster is going to be impossible
Leave it to Seer to upload a challenge video on a day when I'm sick. This is how you make someone feel much better.
noooo, I'm sorry Kevin, I hope you're recovering. I send you my well wishes!
Dude you’re very entertaining to watch. You have such a way with words, I was laughing with almost every line said :p
wait you never updated the death total- other than that, your commentary is SO fucking good- I was laughing the entire time. I also have to say I like the "less than stellar" experience you have i think it helps creating funnier circumstances for you that you rub off on (oof) so well. Love these challenges!
Please keep producing these high quality challenge runs!
making me even more hype for the remaster hell yeah good shit
Damn man you're patient! Great run!
I'm glad that I'm only watching this instead of playing, what a hell to play like that
Always a spectacular day when Seer drops a video!!
*Mario jumps into a ceiling and knocks himself out*
Mallow: ...was that supposed to happen?
Geno: Probably. Now your turn.
Amazing work as always Seer! Your challenge run videos have become my favorite content of yours to watch and how I found your channel. Please keep it up!
Thank you!
This video was hilarious lol got a new sub
subbed cuz of action rpgs but seeing this kinda content from you is awesome, big fan
Your method of narration is so unhinged i absolutely adore it
I think this challenge would definitely be a lot easier, but also potentially harder, in the remake. You get more defensive and offensive abilities and you can still one shot exor with geno whirl.
Except that Geno doesn’t level up, so you don’t have Geno Whirl 😜
you'd only be able to carry 3 rock candies at once. scary!
As someone trying a similar challenge in the remake, but with the minimal level possible (which is Mario at level 3) and no equipment to speak of, it's absolute pain. Only three red essences and three rock candies allowed. Technically the freebie chance is slightly higher (1/3 for everything as opposed to 1/4 for most items in the original). The magic head is a guaranteed full party wipe without red essence thanks to the no equipment rule.
At least Dark Star is blockable, as rare is it is for Smithy to use that.
The only piece of equipment allowed is Mario's Lucky Hammer, since the Lucky Jewel breaks after 10 uses and the hammer is the only way to guarantee a shot at the Yoshi minigame to keep my level low. Besides, the hammer itself has no stats.
i fuckin love you seer, this video is on par with all of your legendary diablo 2 videos, thank you so much for all the content man you are a national treasure lmfao. i hope you are in good health aswell and doing all the important things needed to be healthy etc, ive donated a few times on your live streams and i just figured id come here and thank you for your work and also ask you to say balls for me again.
Fuck yeah! Loved this game so much as a child. Love to see the content Seer.
Damn the ending to this really tricked me, after all your talk about Limited Sack Space (tm) I thought you were building up to a reveal that you went and got the Star Egg. It could've been slightly faster getting Star Egg and saving a good bit of room for more Red Essence and/or Pick Me Ups, though you would've had to die a little inside as you sat through all those rounds of Look The Other Way and then dealt with Star Egg only dealing 100/150 damage per use.
Every fucking time you upload, a banger is made. You're gonna get huge man and i am here for the damn ride.
Pap Mar the Thousand Yar Dar lmao
Good video. I can only imagine the hours of torture it took to get through this.
New to the channel and love the commentary!
Poor Mairo, no loot, no cash, and no education. He does have a girlfriend though so I suppose that evens it out.
It feels good that I'm so similar to Super Mario, just minus the girlfriend.
I know. And the worst part is his name.. So close to a classic, but there's just one letter out of place.
I remember seeing a poster of this in a video store. easily my most rented game
Your delivery on this one was something special. A real word-smith(y)
I appreciate the effort to which you went to make this extremely good and fun game be both not good and unfun
25:34 i cannot stop laughing at this prob the best thing i heard all week lmfao
OH lord please keep them coming
Im glad youre playing the original version. Gonna be interesting to compare it after playing the remaster
Found the channel because of the remake, absolutely hilarious commentary
What I learned from this video: The mushroom kingdom is a collection of total anarchist shitholes where leaders get deposed on a whim on a daily basis, and where the unemployment rate is somewhere around 90%, with the remaining 10% tasked with clearing out the corpses
Life in the Mushroom Kingdom is nasty, brutish, and short.
Nice video, hopefully you have more fun playing the remake. That being said, I'm only subscribing because your pfp is Tiny.
Thanks for the clue how to get Rock Candies! I screwed up and sold the Seed (I was playing original, rip) and can't get lazy shells, so now I get information how to manage my damage output on Smithy.
I subbed after seeing the Paper Mario Challenge Video, and That is an investment I am now collecting on. 💰💰💰
A new Seer video day is a good day. Thanks buddy ol' pal, friendo
awesome gameplay awesome commentary awesome content. +1 sub
Ok cool I'm a member now thanks
This is a good video
10 seconds in and the editing is more involved than most videos I watch
You mention resetting so often... I shudder at the thought of how many hours it took to finish this run.
_"And then he sandstorms and you $h1t your pants and you turn off the game, I'm just kidding...I didn't turn off the game"_
A + humor right there 🤣🤣
Love this video very entertaining! Some fun facts to help if you try this again (or a similar challenge)
If I remember correctly, one firebomb insta kills dodo (if not 2)
While it’s does nothing to smithy, you can use the fright bomb on Gunyolk and cause fear which makes it more bearable.
Also if you block birdo’s single egg attack (with defending, not an action command) the egg ricochets and sits next to Birdo. You can then attack it and it explodes, damaging birdo.
Also if you time the block of Crocko’s “chomp” attack while the enemy is at the height of its arch, it’s a perfect block
Just loaded up my original snes copy and what do you know this video pops up! Subbed
Had no idea about powering up Jump.
Ok, that "fuck it" @1:34 got me.
Good job giving the playing card suits (which sadly died in the remake) some justice!!
i hope you do video on super mario rpg remake. love your commentary in this one
Goddamn your style of narration is extremely entertaining.
the jokes and sarcasm made my day! XD
Fun Fact, after you beat Johnny, before you leave, you can jump on his head and he says this to Mario, "Just because you're my mate doesn't mean you can jump on my head."
I was shocked you can do that and I laughed when I did that
Your commentary is hilarious XD
That has to be the funniest opening to a challenge video I’ve seen in a while.
this is such a cool challenge, I've always been fond of low level runs, great video and humor too!
if you don't mind me asking, do you still have the gecko code you used for this challenge?
Well, that was a fuckin' adventure 😂😂😂
If this is the energy you bring to the table, I'm fuckin' IN, dude!
I almost choked on my food when he called Punchinello "some kind of terrorist".
Would love to see more challenge runs out of you, maybe a classic final fantasy or Dragonquest run
19:55 Booster is an optional boss fight when you fail at the curtains.
This video made me laugh a lot 😂 I love the chaotic energy, my favorite line "an asshole named fuckhead decided to drop a big sword through the air"
Man the Dodo dodging minigame gave me such ANXIETY as a kid! I'll never forget that tension
I did a Bowser solo run using thw randomizer and to bear Smithy it required grinding red essence for Smithy because Bowsers magic defense is purw trash and Shredder was brutal. One quick thing mid video in case you didnt know. Bowyer uses a formula to decide what button is locked! I actuality did know that either till i started speedrunning the game, but its great knowledge!
Thanks for letting me know! I actually felt like that might've been the case on Bowyer, but I neglected looking into it deeper.
25:34 - Probably my favorite quote in a video game video.
