    I think all of Luigi's possesions are the reason he's so easily scared and doesn't like to go on solo adventures; that way Mario can stop him if he gets possesed again

      Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, its predecessor and literally all other Mario RPGs that came before Bowser's Inside Story (the ones that came after Super Paper Mario were good except for Sticker Star, but they did play it safe in comparison to older Mario games even if at times, they could feel like the Mario RPGs that came before the 2010s), they could extremely deserve better because they were not afraid to get dark (but in an atmospheric way instead of an edgy way). But there are more major reasons why like their visuals, their battle systems, their soundtracks and their very deep, profound stories.

    Super Paper Mario is a very dark and emotional story with a bright, colorful and cheerful coat of paint. Dimentio outright *kills* all the main characters before you go to the Underwhere. And let's not forget Count Bleck's constant nihilism and how, if he succeeded, the worlds, all worlds, would cease to be entirely. We even get to see it happen to one of them!
    Also not gonna mention how in Galaxy 1 when Mario dies from electricity he becomes a skeleton? _That traumatized me back then._

      Yeah I'm surprised he didn't include that cause personally that's probably the darkest part of that game seeing a place that used to full of life completely empty. I think that's why Super Paper Mario is unique and considered the last best Paper Mario. I love that game it's a pretty good game with a phenomenal story (especially for a Mario game) that just has some flaws. Also am I the only one who thinks that if Super Paper Mario had a similar battle style to the previous games then maybe it would be probably the best Paper Mario game?

Proving Luigi really gets hurt when Mario doesn't bring him along not to mention how much he loves his bro

    I think a moment worth mentioning is anything involving the Shroobs. Particularly their destruction of Holly Jolly Village. They’re the main villains of Mario & Luigi Partners in time. These vile poison mushroom aliens invade the mushroom kingdom of the past. Turning the victims into lifeless shells as they drain their life force for fuel, decimate innocent towns, and don’t even understand concepts such as kindness, friendship, and compassion. All they understand is an empty existence of “destroy, Destroy, DESTROY!!!”

      That's one of the reasons why I strongly respect PhantomStrider. His taste in Mario games (outside of the fact that he praised Mario's Early Years which is so underwhelming and unimpressive that it makes Sticker Star look like the original Paper Mario) is why we sub to him.

    Personally I think Luigi's death in Smash is a lot more dark than Mario's deaths in Super Mario 64. At least with Mario's deaths in that game, they were more slapstick and cartoony while Luigi's death in Smash was more graphic with his corpse having a more disturbingly real look to it with his blank eyes and his mouth hanging open.

    • @charliep7112
      @charliep7112 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To be honest, the creepy factor is removed by the fact that all you do in the World of Nothing is walk right for what feels like 5,000 years, and fight Mr.L, also, he's already mentioned Super Paper Mario two times, and only one time it got it's own entry, especially in a top six, I prefer different games per entry, if you have so much games to tackle.

      @Probably_CLOUD 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Kiersten Flesburg To call Kirby “The King Of Nightmare Fuel” is debatable among many other franchises that have Nightmare Fuel in them or that does the “Scary and Cute” trope like Kirby. Plus, I’m sure that at this point all of us can see that “Oh, Kirby is not all that it seems to be” thing so it’s really not much of a “unique unexpected topic” to bring up. If anything, it’ll just create another boring video with the same points being made like they already had before with Kirby fans in the views and comments section eating it up. If the content creator were to have an enjoyable style and personality to them, it probably could make the redundant topic on paper seem less boring.

      Twilight Princess the game was dark but was held back by not fully exploring it, the racism between Hylians, Zora, and Gorons was really interesting but never became anything, like most of it really. So the manga manages to take even implications and explore them more, the game goes for Tell Don't Show Enough and the manga manages to do it. If there is a reimagining of someday do I hope it takes inspiration from the manga..!
