I played this in anticipation for the upcoming TTYD remake, which I have yet to play. Honestly its probably one of the best aged N64 game and 5th generation RPG. Every little part of the game just feels so crafted and calculated, and I find the basic story pretty charming in comparison to Mario & Luigi games, somewhat wackier and darker plots. I just ,in general, love RPGs that reward you for exploring every inch of their world, and Paper Mario does that really well, even given, or perhaps because of, its lesser scope. This game is just so good and I don't think I'll stop enjoying it even after playing TTYD.
