THOUSEND YEAR DOOR ON SWITCH!!!!
AND IT LOOKS FANTASTIC!
Looks are nice, but the big question is, are they going to change anything? If they want to fix some of the backtracking issues I'm all for that, but they better not add any woke sh*t. If they do, I'm not buying it 👎👎
@@y345vash9if you use “woke” (which was originally a term used in African American English that had a completely different meaning) in that context, then you’re automatically a red flag.
@@y345vash9
it's Nintendo. they don't even know what that is.
@@y345vash9I regret to inform you Vivian is canonically transgender in the original ttyd
Smallish CZcamsrs talking about Paper Mario is my favorite pastime
I love that this game finally has a real post-game. Most games just let you save before the final boss and every NPC talks about how important it is for you to defeat the enemy, stuck at a moment before the climax without letting you enjoy the world around properly.
I love just listening to you talk about something you are so passionate about this video is almost and hour long but it went by in a blink of an eye great job make me want to go back and play it 🎉
Same here
Honestly the areas just look really pretty, this is one of the few Mario games that doesn’t feel like it’s going through the motions
It's been over 15 years since i completed this gem and want to come at it as fresh as possible when the remake releases. See you in a few months after i have finished it!
I love this game so much but I have to disagree with the general white quest not being bad as flowery fields. As linear and backtrack-heavy as flowery fields is, at least it's progress in a new area.
The General White quest however, is completely, utterly pointless. You literally travel around the whole world again, just to find out the guy you're looking for was in the outpost you got your quest from the whole time. A complete, utter time waster to, what I assume, is set up a gag. A gag that isn't very funny when you realize how much time you wasted
But there’s warp pipes that allow players to fast travel back to each town. To be fair, they are a bit out of the way.
im here cause of the thousand year door remake on switch! its amazing and my first time playing it!
just found this video after rewatching danny and arin’s playthrough. great video, seriously deserves more views
Found your channel this morning looking for sprite animations (mario super star saga style) and your series on superstar saga came up, i have to say i havent been so captivated in a video in a while and ive been watching you the entire day. You earnt a sub man
I find Tech pretty endearing.
I love this game so much, as a kid I barely knew english being born in a spanish speaking country but most actions were shown in other ways, I had to rely on a spanish guide for some sections but it was something I used only ever so if I couldnt progress in days, it ended up being the most memorable game in my life next to Crash 3, so full of soul, so full of details, so MUCH PERSONALITY, everything is great, backtrack aside the game is a 10/10 for me to this day, it can be improved, a enchanced remake would make this game even better but with that said to anyone who hasnt tried it, do, its barely a Mario game (since mario is being usually related to bland formulaic games) this is an ADVENTURE
I love this take :)
Everyone better buy the remake!!!
We got the remake !!!
I love watching this channel while falling asleep!!

How does this only have 8 comments
Long videos are often just listened to in the background and therefore get less interaction like likes or comments, which is why they perform below average on CZcams.
I 100% agree that chapter 4 desperately needed more content. People keep focusing on the backtracking and the problem being that it's too long but considering I'm pretty patient with repetition, I was far more disappointed with the lack of areas to explore.
So Chapter 7.
I think there's a reason why they made you backtrack. They want you to revisit all the areas again to pick up anything you may have possibly missed AND also give you the opportunity to revisit everything one last time, because basically once you find general white, it's a straight shot through the chapter, and then the game rushed you to the thousand year door essentially saying it's very urgent, and why wouldn't you at that point? Why would you bother revisiting past areas one last time at that point?
That doesn't make sense given the game is designed to be linear and to not need to backtrack, the new powers don't help as you can first clear everything but Help Board and T3 Partners and you can take a pipe directly to the town to ask for General White or if there is no Pipe your method puts you directly at the town.
Hey, I have a genuine question, if you don't mind it coming from an older video. Why didn't you talk more about Vivian like you did Bobbery? Because Vivian's story is also incredibly deep when actually looked into and I feel for how amazing this retrospective is... it misses Vivian just a bit much. I'm actually on this video because of the TTYD remaster announcement and your video about that, because you do make great content! I'm just curious why you never really touched on Vivian's story much, despite it being the most prominent multi-chapter story of all the partners.
And I completely understand if I just missed it, but I rewatched the video and even looked through the transcript and couldn't find much about Vivian's story. So I just thought I'd ask!
Looking back through my script, (this was a year and a half ago) I did touch on it a bit, but yeah, I didn't go as in depth as I did with Bobbery, and that's probably because I forgot to lol.
@@ScionVyse Alright, thank you for checking!
@@ScionVyse Aye that caught my ear as well, you briefly mentioned what Vivian was going through partway into the video and said "but more on that later." It didn't really come up again though, so I figured it was just and oversight, no worries or anything.
Been loving the reviews by the way! Binging a lot of them, they're super well constructed and thoughtful, made for a very easy subscribe button to hit
Speaking of Vivian, something that didn't sit right with me about the epilogue was Beldam suddenly becoming a good person just because the Shadow Queen was destroyed when resurrecting the Shadow Queen was Beldam's master plan from the very beginning. Unless they were implying that she was being influenced or mind-controlled in some fashion, they should've done a better job at explaining it. Otherwise, it just comes across as bizarre at best and mind-fumblingly dumb at worst because you have to remember that Beldam had still verbally abused and tormented Vivian, that you seriously trust she'll never do anything to Vivian again? If you ask me, having a family abuse victim join back with their abusers... doesn't feel like a good lesson to teach to children, especially children who are victims of abuse (maybe even by their own family members) like Vivian. So, instead, what I would like to do is have Goombella tell Mario that Vivian has been trying to socialize with more people now (her being a transgender female could also work well, too, since that was censored from English version) and also have Vivian helping out others who feel like they're unwanted. As for Beldam and Marilyn, why not have a post-game side quest where you choose to help them seek redemption when they (mostly Beldam) feel like there's nothing left for them in the world now that they're plan has failed? Maybe it could even involve the Palace of Shadow again where they even talk about their own lives as well and you could help them see that there's more to a world than just following orders and/or taking it over. Or, hell, maybe even just have them atone for their crimes. I know they probably don't deserve to be redeemed, and it's pretty cheesy, too, but, honestly, anything could've worked better than that part of the epilogue we got in the base game.
Missed this game in almost its entirety. The copy I had was unfortunately scratched and could never get past the tree with the mice.
Buy the switch remake and play the game.
loved this review as well, ttyd is literally in my top 5 of favorite games ever, literally one of the best sequels/games ever
Chapter 4 could’ve been one of the best if they either didn’t force you to get the letter P which is funny but more so annoying on replays. That would allow you to only backtrack from the town and castle once instead of twice which would be a huge improvement although would’ve made the chapter even shorter
Or they could’ve allowed Vivian’s ability to move her and Mario underground in order to move past all the enemies that way you don’t have to spend so much time grinding or just repeatedly running away
10:22 it makes sense in the Mario tennis game on GameCube. When you win is Luigi Mario walks up on stage and stomped on Luigi shoe not letting him have his victory.
what's the texture mod?, i've seen it lots of times before and never found it online. Great review by the way!
Hey man it’s been nearly 11 years, when are you going to upload part 70 of the LOTR the third age walkthrough (Pelennor fields evil mode)?
not scion but cool to see people still playing third age, doing so as we speak :)
I’m sure it’ll be any day now
im so confused how the quality of this game you shown look this amazing and its not from the remake since this was uploaded 2 years ago
When TTYD is good, its fantastic. When its not good, boy is it a damn slog. But at least the slogs are mercifully short-ish
My one wish for the remake is for them to fix the backtracking in chapter 4
Am i the only person who thought the crows talking about fossil fuels was a funny joke
The name is Beldam, not bedlam.
Paper Luigi DLC pls

Is Odama any good?

Stupid comment! If you have nothing to write, then write nothing instead of writing something stupid and not relevant!
Doesn’t work like that stop saying this
When toadette has her last scene with you, she is super sad and doesn’t want to leave. How does a character you see like a total of 4 times make you care so much about them??? Ask ttyd 🥹🥹🥹
