Very excited to play this, I need a solid light hearted jolly adventure and I'm sure this will deliver that.

Leave it to Paper Mario to have those smart and witty type of funny writing. Having a blast. Literally LOLing at the characters and dialogue.
The combat is a breath of fresh air, the floor panels that you can move adds a nice layer to the rest of the Paper Mario type action/turn based system. I did a few bosses and they were fun as heck, you have to use your head and work the floor system.
Loving the locations too. Very colourful and cleverly designed. I'm really impressed how IS is using the camera as part of gameplay and level design. Makes you pay keen attention to the angles used so you can navigate to hidden areas. And I was just able to sail on a boat out in the sea, kinda Wind Walker style!! So far loving it. Music also doesn't disappoint. And there's this really funny scene at a hidden cafe at one of the dungeons, jazz music and all.
oh yeah, great game to play with kids too!

Thats great to hear. Kinda wish I'd went in more blind. Those Origami bosses would have been a nice surprise but its cool lol

Oh I'm in totally blind. I only watched the initial trailer. Oh man I came across this small grassy section (samurai themed with music and all) and it was so well done in the Paper Mario art. Can't wait to play more tomorrow.
awww happy to hear!!
honestly I took a closer look at the battle system footage and it seems really interesting/fun, even with a lack of progression-related rewards.
Seems like a genuinely great game.

This still looks like a really fun game regardless of what it lacks compared to the earlier entries. Looking forward to trying it out eventually.

Just downloaded. It was either going to be this or Tsushima, and after the GB quicklook of that I chose this.
I think I made the right choice :)

I'm only less than 30 mins in so far, but loving the game. You really want to turn motion controls off if you are playing with controller, though. Also I keep pressing Y to open item screen when I want to attack with hammer. I hope I will be be able to change some controls later on.
Less than an hr already have 1800 coins lol.
At least we can spam confetti a bit quicker. Makes a nice sound too. You can keep whacking trees for an endless supply too so i dont see the point of having a bag not being infinite yet.

You can change controls in switch system settings if you need to.
Just beat the first chapter.
I'm liking everything but the combat against regular enemies, which I think is already starting to get old.
With regards to the combat, it's getting old as I feel that most enemies aren't using the core concept of the ring in an interesting manner at all.

Played for 30 minutes but I'm getting sleepy lol. Really loving it so far, also the OST fucking slaps
Just got passed the
and I don't want to leave this area. This music is too good, what is this game so far lol?!
dancing/singing tree segment
Haha I just came to ask the same thing, was worried I'd missed something obvious. Same for that differently coloured square patch of grass.
Any way to run ? Just started playing 😅 and is there manual save ?
I'm really enjoying this game.
I love the OT and the title too, great work. If I could only add one thing to the title lol

OST is amazing
writing is fun
good graphics, boring villain set up
confetti is whatever and the game designer in me says bad mechanic,
disbaled motion controls before I even met Bowser (phew),
& I already never want to do another battle if I had the choice
....so basically exactly what I expected lol

Played about three hours so far and I'm really enjoying it.
It's not until I got to the sewer area that you get a sense of what the combat is really going for- fast paced puzzle solving. The mixing and matching of enemy types within a single battle was cool and the way the enemies come in waves works with the quick pace. Fighting just the goombas early on is overly simple, but at the same time, they're goombas, so it makes thematic sense that they don't put up much of a challenge.
You're not going to get satisfying RPG mechanics out of the combat, that's not what it's going for at all. Whether they can continue to introduce interesting enemy types and puzzle variations throughout, we'll see, but the little sewer segment showed a lot of potential, especially for someone like me who has never been a huge fan of turn-based combat.
