my copy of brothership arrived yesterday and now i can safely say this

#“what about partners in time” PARTNERS IN TIME IS GOOD OKAY #it's INNOVATIVE! it's FLAWED but it's INNOVATIVE and FUN.#obviously superstar saga & bowser's inside story are great and dream team is pretty good too #and brothership is really good #paper jam is just mediogre though it's like 3ds era paper mario brought his stank with him #and mario & luigi had to balance it out with a secret anti-stank that only worked a little and made the game comparatively mid #it's still got good gameplay & character writing (except peach... i hate that one meta-deprecation line it SUCKS) but... ehhh.#anyways. woe nocturne's m&l opinions be upon ye #certified nocturneposting #mario & luigi #m&l rpgs

I don't remember anyone talking about how Bowser risked getting left behind in Concordia to save two goombas

goombas. y'know, the guys who get clowned on for being so weak? I think that's beautiful

#like he really IS ride or die for his subjects #that and truly helping out the practically dying inhabited island of offandon #he's just. a good king #even if he's like evil and stuff #but we ignore that sometimes #super mario #smb #mario and luigi #mario and luigi brothership #bowser #king bowser #a Tumblr user's rambling #video #goomba

"Luigi, Luigi, Luigi. Take me with you!"

I had this small idea in my head.

#another amazing thing about brothership is the many sidequests #they are a gold mine of goofy little scenarios #and some pretty good character moments #and the ones with the allsand brothers are no exception #they really do draw parallels to mario and luigi as characters #as you can tell by this doodle my favorite moment with them is when the younger brother tries to run off with luigi #'come on luigi let's sneak off and go on an adventure!'#mario and luigi brothership #mario and luigi brothership fanart #mario and luigi #mario #luigi #maddiebrj art #maddie art

brothership stamp collection... 2!!!! featuring mainly character stamps! ignore the top right one.

part 1

#stating again that these are free to use :)#brothership spoilers #brothership #mario and luigi brothership #mario & luigi brothership #[the one and lonely!]#Take Fucking Two considering tumblr ATE the first post.#..probably a good thing in retrospect since the tags on the first one were all over the place.#anyways. creators commentary. some of these stamps took me wayyyyy too long to put together.#ten surprisingly took me a bit to get a good screenshot for. i wanted him in that arms crossed pose #but i couldnt find one where he both had a good angle and was close to the camera.#not entirely happy with the one i settled on bc he kind of bleeds into the bg but Oh Well.#cozette. god she has like 2 good screenshots total. universe itself preventing me from making a million stamps of her. sad :(#i wish i couldve given maykit a more interesting screenshot but she simply does Not Get Close to the camera by herself Ever.#i really like how the dyode and emmit stamp turned out even though it was entirely unintentional. it just goes so hard and for what reason.#and finally i debated not giving adaphne a character stamp for the bit but i decided against it in the end. got really close though.#now GO. be free my darlings (i toss the stamps and they blow away in the wind. like that one komaeda pocket oats post)

I'm not really in the Mario and Luigi fandom (the only other game I've played being Bowser's Inside Story) so I'm speaking from an outside perspective but find it absolutely crazy that people are talking about Mario and Luigi Brothership being 40-50 hours long like it's a bad thing.

I'm just sitting here, perplexed because 40-50 hours is my average completion time for Pokémon games. I beat Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom in 150 hours. 40-50 hours feels like small potatoes for a story heavy game.

And they're talking about it being slow and having padding and having too much dialogue and that REALLY confuses me because it's a story based RPG. What did they expect? You literally signed up for this! Shock and horror, the story based game has storytelling.

All the dialogue they keep saying should be cut in half is there to develop the characters so you care about them when the bad shit happens to them! I'm half way through the third sea and I'm super invested. The Concordians are so silly and adorable, I love them. I went back to Desolatt Island to do a sidequest after a certain point in the story and my heart sank when I saw all the islanders being caught under the influence of the bad guy's scheme and their friends being worried about them.

I dunno, man. I'm just not noticing any pacing issues. It feels pretty episodic to me. I'm 19 hours in and it feels like the story is progressing normally to me. Maybe it's longer than other Mario and Luigi games, I wouldn't know.

#mario and luigi #mario and luigi series #mario and luigi brothership #God this game is SO GOOD #mario and luigi brothership spoilers #I just beat Heatfreeze Island #The IDLE kids are off exploring with Princess Peach but considering her kidnapping track record I'm genuinely concerned for their wellbeing #I just feel like something really bad is about to happen to them

any hopes/wishes for the next mario rpg? (paper or otherwise)

i hope there’s more trauma-inducing stuff >:)

that’s when mario rpgs are at their best

i want super paper mario on the nintendo switch dammit

#skye's ramblings #HSGDHF real answer though is i dunno!! i'm honestly feeling even more optimistic for the future of the mario rpgs after brothership #like i think aquire definitely delivered on reviving the m&l series and im excited to see where they take it next!!#also they gave us our first peasley mention since superstar saga i trust them w my life peasley gang heres how we can still win <-deranged #AS FOR THE TRAUMA STUFF THOUGH I COMPLETELY AGREE THATS WHERE THESE GAMES SHINE BRIGHTEST #ive said this a lot but brothership was so fucking good w this i love that mariorpgs are being fucked up and weird again. nature is healing #AS FOR PAPERMARIOS. SPM ON SWITCH IS A GIVEN BUT ALSO the ttyd remake made me really optimistic for this series as well #hoping nintendo takes the reception to heart w future games. origami king was already a step in the right direction so i feel optimistic <3 #SO YUUUP BASICALY IM REALLY HAPPY W THE STATE OF THE MARIORPGS AND IM EXCITED TO SEE WHERE THEY GO NEXT. YAY #anonnn

FINALLYYYYY GOD. THIS TOOK 2 WEEKS TO BEAT

Reached 30 tags so here’s the rest of my thoughts:

AND I PLAYED FOR ANOTHER TEN HOURS. IT NEVER ENDED

but yes. despite all that whining I did have a blast with brothership

I want to play through it again. I feel like this is the kind of game that needs a second play through to digest it properly

Ok that’s it. Glad I finished l. Goodnight folks

#mario bros #mario and luigi #mario and luigi brothership #m&l brothership #m&l brothership spoilers #brothership spoilers #thoughts and opinions time to get it out of the way!#overall the ~60 hour experience of brothership was a delight #(60 because I dick around too much. I’d average a 50 to 55 hour experience for the average joe)#the story and characters were a DELIGHT to experience #especially extension corps. my god what a collection of idiots #tradgedy I’ll never see them again #ANYWAY I found it fun going through different islands and helping the townsfolk and reconnecting islands and their people #there were so many good individual moments here. Junior making a friend is a definite highlight #but god. extension corps finding out they care about eachother and being disgusted. a riot #father and son on bulbfish reconnecting and immediately throwing punches at eachother after. hilarious #BURNADETTE AND CHILLIAMS ROMANCE ARC. BEAUTIFUL #MARIO AND LUIGIS IDEAL WORLD BEING ONE WHERE BOWSER AND FRIENDS GET ALONG. AAGGGHHHHH #normal I’m normal #the concept of glohm and how it fits into the story is also so damn good #depression beam #I do have my complaints though. like I don’t like how Luigi feels like a sidekick instead of the second player character #you play as Mario and Luigi tags along is what it feels like. and that makes me really sad cause isn’t this game about connections #LET ME CONTROL MARIO AND LUIGI EVENLY!#the final boss is also…. not all that #the fight I mean. Reclusa himself is AMAZING #but the fight felt underwhelming for a final boss. like it. had the elements that could’ve made it a great final boss #but they weren’t tied together in a way that felt satisfying? does that make sense?#last thing: it might of just been me being desperate but the game took FOREVERRRR to finish #and I don’t say that because I hate playing I say that cause there were so many times where I thought ‘oh this is it it’s almost over’

I'VE FINALLY FINISHED BROTHERSHIP IT WAS SOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!

#clai speaks #spoilers in the tags probably #ahhh first of all i am still astounded the game exists at all. we all thought m&l was done forever but here it is!!!#the timing of me playing superstar saga and getting really into mario last year couldnt have been better #i mean i probably would have played brothership still even if mario hadnt become a main interest of mine like that. but anyway #absolutely stellar re-entry into the series it did not disappoint in the SLIGHTEST #i think i 100%'d it? only thing i didnt do was finish that last dyode dance sequence but like its fiiiine #took about 50 hours i didnt get a chance to check my final time. really surprised that the game went that long!#i dont think it was a bad thing at all though. the game mostly didnt feel like it was overstaying its welcome #i did think lottacoins and the lower level solitree went a tad too long and i didnt like them but only a little. they're still fine sections #surprised that i didnt even feel like the sidequests were a drag they were all alright!#character interactions were so good ofc. love the new cast!! starlow felt a bit flat which is a shame but she also didnt appear much so #the sidequest where she visits bowser and he calls her chippy!!!! made me so happy!!!!!#all the callbacks were so good i'm glad they can still do that. yelled out loud after finding the peasley reef #docking points for no dreambert reef however. jail worthy offence #on reclusa specifically i dont have a lot to say about his character he's just your typical evil for the sake of evil villain #but i have to say i Love his design. the really exaggerated facial expressions and that clown neck frill. really fun character actually!!#ahhh call me childish but i'm never a fan of endings where friends separate but i like to think the second uni-tree--#--will allow them to link back up once its grown and can generate more connectar to do it #cant say if its my favorite yet bc recency bias is still too fresh but its absolutely my second favorite m&l game at least!!#i havent played paper jam yet i wanted to play the original paper mario and spm first. but i always hear its bad so??#brothership is at least on par with dream team for me rn. absolutely stellar game #i hope this means we'll get more m&l someday! i've already left a very positive response on the survey they put out #anyway. now to decide what to play next because i have a MASSIVE backlog of games and i didnt think this would take this long BJDHJFHF #10/10!!!! please play brothership immediately

i didnt realise how much i'd miss starlow til she was gone

#honestly my only problem with the game so far that isn't a nitpick is the characterisation of the npcs #it's not got the charm that the alphadream games had #snoutlet's doing nothing for me. connie and arc are not gonna stick in my brain i can already tell you that much #for all the shit i gave starlow for being unnecessarily mean to luigi. she was a fun character. i enjoyed having her around and her #interactions with bowser in bis were wonderful #and the general npcs were good. i enjoyed getting dialogue from em.#and i LOVED the side characters. peasley. queen bean. kylie koopa. dreambert. all solid supporting characters #so far i've just. not really felt like i'm gonna connect with any of these characters #willma and maykit are the best ones out of the bunch i do like them #but nowhere near on the same level as the characters in past m&l games #btw i'm still REALLY enjoying the game. everything else about it thus far has been really fun.#it's just a shame this new company couldn't deliver on that. it was one of my favourite elements of past m&l games #brothership spoilers

It think it's so funny how much I hype up Superstar Saga like objectively she isn't even the best game in the series I just think she's really neat

#it introduces a lot of cool and unique ideas and mechanics!#and like yeah! she spawned 5 sequels she's really good #what i like about superstar saga is that it's different and it commits to it #the entire game is a subversive of expectations left and right while still holding onto what makes a mario game a matio gamr at it's core #it isn't afraid to do something different with these characters and explore them on a level even slightly deeper than surface level #and it ties back into other games well too! e.gadd is in it!#anyways objectively BiS is the best game in the series if you want my humble opinion #i like how it carries over a lot of ideas from Superstar Saga and os straight up a Superstar Saga sequel #i like that it goes back to the mechanics PiT abandoned and polished them up a bit #BiS is kind of like a more polished Superstar Saga to me while still being it's own thing #anyways Superstar Saga good play it i'm really excited for Brothership #(also not to be too hopeful but it really feels like Brothership is doing a LOT of things that i enjoyed from the first three games)

and all of this is part of a completely separate rant about how kids games dont do things like this anymore because i guess its like. a waste of time or something. but the reason this game was so magical to me when its way more obscure than other mario titles is because it was legitimately something so special. all of its one-off mini-games and unique animations made it so delightful and i can only hope that brothership brings back that same energy

#mileposting #and if it doesnt then. i mean. i get it. optimization is prioritized over unique elements #thats usually how it is now. and for a good reason… developers wellbeings should definitely come first #but i wont lie i really hope theres at least the same energy in brothership

*climbs out of the grave after procrastinating on drawing this piece for over a month* yay more brothership art!!! the brainrot has not yet faded

Reclusa's final fights were stupidly fun. Every single one of the different phases - I was so pumped throughout the whole thing. god the theme for the chase sequences is so god damn good also ngl i thought Reclusa's design was a bit stupid at first but it really grew on me. like, yeah no he looks cool.

anyway. good 'comes out of nowhere at the end of the game to be the final boss' villain. 10/10
