Bruceski posted:That was my thought as well. I still have the last bit and DLC of the first one to get back to, may as well wait until I do that to see if I feel like more right away. I adored the first game, but my plan is to wait for a sale. I played it with my husband. We'd kinda hand the controller off to each other to control different characters. I was Rabbid Peach. He doesn't have a whole lot of time to play games right now, so maybe when it goes on sale we can play.

Wait the rolls in Mario Party are predetermined, and “hitting the dice at the right time” is an illusion? What the gently caress? What the gently caress??

Effectively it’s the same thing as random in normal play anyways, and the predetermined aspect only matters if you’re playing with save states and such.

It's still funny when kids are superstitious over games and while they tend to be off the mark, those games genuinely have mechanics so obscure that superstition is as on the mark as any legitimate guess.

Waffle! posted:Were you a kid that mashed the B button when capturing a Pokemon, or did you hold it down?  You hold A and right while the pokeball is in the air, and then switch to B and down when the pokemon is inside the ball. If you do that it’s like a masterball and always catches the pokemon no matter what. If the pokemon breaks out it means you got the timing wrong.

Sparks of Hope is good. I need to replace Rabbid Peach to make it harder, but her weapon that hits behind cover is so good. In the 1st I could be super aggressive with Rabbid Luigi and Rabbid Mario because I'd have so much Vampire procced I'd be healing every turn. Don't see any life stealing abilities this time, so it's harder to give up being able to heal a boatload of hp every couple turns.

Looking back on 8 bit mario games, I wonder why Nintendo decided to allow players to warp through the game. It seems odd that they'd want players to bypass the games content, and skip levels that a lot of time and money was spent on creating. Especially with 8 bit game cartridges having such limited capacity for game content.

it was to have cool secrets to brag about knowing how to do and showing somebody and feeling like you have done a lot in life even though you're small.

I dont think game guides had quite been popularized back then so it would take hours to find any of those secrets, bc a lot of them are the kind of thing that happens on your 10th run thru a level and going "huh wonder if i can get up there"

You can't get the high score in Mario by skipping levels, but you can hop around to the different worlds easily like a primitive form of saves

Alternatively, Mario 2 JP fixed the issue, and punished you for trying to find some of them.

He replaced his yoyo with a Frisbee that bounces up to something like 5 or 6 other dudes in a single attack. Also, elemental effects are on demand and attached to equipment so he can set every last one of them on fire at once if he wants to.

Game is very good, I love how changing the way you start encounters allowed them to make the maps cool and fun and not just corridors from one fight to the next. I am playing on hard and it’s a pretty good challenge, not absurd like other games I’ve played recently (Xenoblade Chronicles 3). Edit: my only complaint is that you never get new weapons, only skins, but I guess the Sparks are basically the new weapon system. Not sure why the game doesn’t have its own thread, I’d make one but

The snow level with its pixel-perfect final jump can gently caress right off, I need those extra lives for the mines in Surf City  Ditto for skipping the life-sink that id Volkmire's Inferno.
