The culex refight has to be one of the coolest things a Nintendo remake has ever done. Thanks Nintendo for this gemstone remake. Can’t wait for thousand year door!
Nintendo and Square Enix, both do this remake, and made possible doing this
@@frandestiny8827It really says a lot, when what's seen as "The most distinct game showcasing the best of Square Enix and Nintendo" (Not the BEST, nor the best from EITHER. It's the best involving BOTH) is something that basically became a predecessor to the GBA/DS's other Mario RPG-games.
... Come to think of it, "The best of Square & [company]" seem to be a thing with Square. Kingdom Hearts would come later, a big game and franchise for Sony, and between the 2 games, there were the later Final Fantasy entries. ig Square just know their RPGs... or at least their JRPGs, at the time.
I think a good choice for Culex 3D boss would be that Final Claw, instead of five turns, aleast take three turns to change it, because it feels off that still keeps the same amount of turns like Meteor
2D Culex in the encyclopedia: I feel out of place here.....
3D Culex in the encyclopedia: BEHOLD! THE POWER OF POST GAME CONTENT!
Editor, put the vernias face on 3D Culex.
3D Culex is just Sephiroth, Photoshop Flowey, and Monika all mixed together and I do not like the idea of something like that...
@@markpiper6382Editor, make _all_ the crystals Vernias-heads of different colors.
@@smartboy201 Editor, green screen car crash.
@@markpiper6382and ofc, "Editor!"
_uncomfortably long pause_
"... How're 'ya doin', Editor?"
3D Culex has to be one of my favourite bosses of all time because of the build-up and payoff to what was probably one of, if not THE most highly anticipated parts of the remake. The fact that they start with the original 2D Culex and also have him wish that he could be 3D is genius. The payoff of going through all of the post-game bosses before finally being greeted to his stronger, 3D form is such a good mini-story, not to mention that the fight itself is NUTS lmao. It's easily my favourite part of this game
fun fact, that dialogue about him wishing to be 3D, was supposed to be in the original game. All of that dialogue was kept in Japan, but for some weird reason in the English localization back then in the original version, there was no reference to it. But obviously, in the remake, that’s not the case. They stuck as closely to the Japanese script, while at the same time, keeping some of the classic lines from the Western version. same with Mallow’s “Grandpa”,being called frog sage. He was called that in Japan.
11:25
Bro the way he screamed "Meteor" got me laughing hard 😂😂
Spoilers for the video:
Fun fact: If you kill Culex before the crystals the crystals all die but they bring back Culex to full health.
This gives you an interesting choice to take since Culex DOESN'T get the buffs if the crystals revive him. So you either kill Culex twice or you kill him once but it gets even stronger.
@@lucaantinori4834 I rather fight one suped up boss then the same boss twice.
Does Culex's reraise HP scale with how many crystals survive? I'm asking because since I didn't kill _any_ of them on my first try I had to deal with another 9999 HP.
Didn't happened to me. I killed Culex first and then the shards inmediately died after with one hit only.
@@RaceBanditif he dies before the crystals he’ll sacrifice one of them and revive
9:07 By the way, in this fight, the chefs are weak to sleep. So you can completely stop the candle mechanic. Points for having them be very sleepy in the intro cutscene to hint it.
You could probably dodge a lot of the hard boss mechanics if sleep works on others as well, too. A nice bone thrown out for people who bothered to grind out the Sheep Attack quest?
@@oshkeet Well, Belome is weak to silence so you can remove his sleep moves from his moveset.
At least now Peach’s Sleepy Time move now has more purpose.
I learned that because I’m obsessed with using Mallow’s Thought Peek.
I will never forget the day you lost your voice and your mind upon witnessing Culex in 3D.
I was half expecting them to give us a stronger version of the original superboss.
But the way they did it actually blew my mind. There was no 6HP Geno moment but it was equally as epic.
11:48 IT’S OVER 9000!!
Fun fact about Culex: He's named after a type of mosquito. On top of that, it's actually a really subtle reference to Golbez from FF4, who is named after a type of blood sucking fly.
It keeps going!
The Wind Crystal (specifically its weakness to Jump) is based off of the Wind Elemental in FF4; the reliable way to get past the tornado it surrounds itself with, is by using your Dragoon's "Jump" ability to soar over the tornado.
That's why Wind Crystal is weak to Jump!
@@smartboy201 and Mario is officially Dragoon
@@raveastjennifersandy9220 He's a man of many, many, many, MANY occupations. He might as well be a Dragoon, too...
This was by far the best remake I have ever played. I loved the original, but the remake just improved in every way. The only downside is that it’s easier with the new mechanics. But that’s OK because it may be easier, but the new mechanics are just so much fun to use. And Culex 3D was one of the best boss fights I’ve ever played in an RPG. Here’s that the TTYD remake will be just as good if not, better.
Culex was handled perfectly. He was originally a joke about being 2D, but wasn’t in English. The Culex re-fight is having your cake and eating it, too.
Yep. It looks like in this remake, they wanted to follow the Japanese script as much as possible. While, at the same time, keeping in some of the English lines. Bazooka toad line anyone?
@@BlindMelonLord Sadly no Bruce Lee line
@@connormcnulty6377 yeah, but that wasn’t Nintendo being Nintendo going, this references out of date. Better remove it. No, they were actually respecting the Lee’s families wishes. Because, the Lee family doesn’t like his name being mentioned in fictional media.
Plus, if you really think about it, that line is kind of out of place. Fictional characters making a reference to a real world person, kinda doesn’t make sense sense.
This remake, no matter how many times I go back to it, it just doesn't feel real, it almost feels like this was never meant to happen, but a miracle allowed us to revisit a beloved game that, I would argue, has definitely stood the test of time. All thanks be Nintendo to for this gem of a video game
The Cluex boss returning in bit form and then being able to rematch him in 3d with a remix is really cool. 💫
As someone who played this game for the first time about a decade ago, this is the absolute coolest thing and makes the entire existence of the remake worth it.
I loved this postgame because it makes you THINK to beat the superbosses, it's not just a grind fest. Incredibly enjoyable game, this changed RPGs forever.
3D Culex looks amazing. This game is a masterpiece
His reactions to Toad’s insultingly useless advice during the Johnny rematch slayed me. Basically exactly my reactions when I went through it.
The creator of this game said he wishes to make a sequel and then retire, considering the success it’s more than likely to happen
One can only hope. Especially since Square, and Nintendo are buddy buddy again. Well… I shouldn’t really say again, because they did make Final Fantasy remakes for Game Boy advance, and stuff, plus they ported ChronoTrigger to the either DS or 3DS, I can’t remember. So yeah… Something tells me the feud between Nintendo and Square didn’t last that long.
One thing I think Brent would like about the Culex bit, is how after seeing his face, the Squidward "Oh no, he's hot!" fits _perfectly!_ Hell, I've seen a lot of shorts on YT for the fight... it's strange how common "... DAMN, tho!" is used.
One of the things I most love about your content is how positive you always are about the games you play, other CZcamsrs tend to be a bit more negative about them but you always take the time to give a good game the credit it deserves. It's just so wholesome to see you express just how much you love the games you play
Roamer
Oh, the Crystal Shard kinda reminds me of the Proof of Connection in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, you get that item after beating the Lingering Will, the hardest Super Boss in the game (there's 15 of them), and it does nothing but give Sora a crown that changes materials depending how many Proofs you have
I still wonder why brent won't use the lazy shell weapon, while the rest of the team uses the best weapons.
12:32 yeah, that makes sense.
This was a 10/10 remake. I loved absolutely everything about it. Watching you play it has been a real treat too! I can't wait to see your Thousand Year Door playthrough!
Took me like 7 or so attempts on beating Culex 3D by the way! I think I was at a similar level if not maybe slightly higher, but Culex 3D was everything I had hoped for in a Superboss. The fact that you can fight him again makes me so happy.
Yeah the Culex battle was a whole different breed of difficulty.
Safe to say getting the ultimate weapons and armor is the best idea for postgane
I remember when I was speculating Culex's fight, I thought it would've been the same 2D sprite as in the original, another fan argued he'd rather want a full 3D render with the flashy special effects.
I'm so glad that we got both right.
I said it in another comment, but what the hell. I’ll tell you as well. Fun fact, him wishing to be 3D is not new. Well… For Japan anyway. Because in the Japanese version of the original game script, he does exactly like he does in this version of the game. He talks about being flat and asks why they’re all 3D, and he ends up wishing he could be 3D. But for some reason, in the original English version, that dialogue was cut and replaced with something else. Thank goodness for this remake, they decided to follow the Japanese script as closely as possible. While at the same time, keeping some of the classic lines from the English version of the script. (bazooka Toad line anyone? Lol)
That scream on him was amazing 8:30
This game is seriously beautiful, I feel sad it's already over but it was fantastic while it lasted. Mario RPG is 100% one of my new favorite games.
Yo! Post game Mario RPG on my birthday?! This is the perfect start to this day!
I’m also really happy that you flipped out over the Culex rematch as much as I did! It’s absolutely one of the best things Nintendo has ever done in a remake!
I love that your FP and Frog Coins were all 7's.
Also, I appreciate the final notes you left us with. You're a real one.
bro that "what the F*CK!?" at 5:53 sounded life he was flabbergasted and f*cking furious
I loved basically everything about this game. I loved that they let you swap in different characters mid-battle, because it can keep your roster varied and because it lets the postgame bosses be especially lethal. I loved that they gave all the characters new ultimate weapons. I loved the quality of life changes. It is obvious that the folks who worked on this game loved the original as much as we do. Geno gets to shine more and Mallow gets to be more expressive and adorable, so first timers will love them and us old timers will love them even more. FANTASTIC.
My only complaint about the Mario RPG remake is that we never get to travel to Vanda or meet the dark mage, I guess we’ll have to wait until that one game Culex mentions in his post battle speech where he and Mario were enemies.
you do know, he wasn’t actually from a Final Fantasy game, and that he was just one gigantic spoof, right?
I now want to see more RPGs played by you, and also you sound so wholesome talking about how much you like Super Mario RPG & the remake! Makes me want to play this!
As someone who grew up with this game the remake was everything I could of asked for. Those credits where it starts in the 16 bit then transitions pulled some heart strings and opened memories. I’m so happy this got made and hope these characters come back more often.
One thing I can always appreciate about your videos is how much care you put into them. I absolutely can say you're one of my favorite youtubers. Keep doing what you're doing!
You defeated 3D Culex at level 22 on your 2nd attempt…
I have no words, honestly. 👏🏻
A beautiful finale. Thanks for the playthrough Brent, and I hope the Mario and Luigi series gets some love with remakes next year!
Congrats on getting the crystal shard! All that’s left is to collect 73 more to fight Zero-Two
I always love it when he gets so flabbergasted at random things😂
The squidward nose video 🤣🤣🤣 This is my first time watching your videos good stuff! I subbed 👍🏽💯
It was such a nice journey! I really hope they do something with this concept again!^^
The fact you cleared the Post Game without being at max level is honestly outstanding. I couldn't beat Punchinello and Booster without being at level 30.
When King Of Skill HAS to use the Lazy Shell you know the fight's hard.
Brent: Aw damn, i though they would change the theme!
Later:
"They got us in the first half, not gonna lie."
Edit: One thing to add in was Brent saying that he hopes this isint a one and done deal? The Director of the remake did indeed mention that he would be interested in making a proper sequel to this game. Here is hoping it follows through.
This man really took on 2D Culex without the Lazy Shell and won?! I salute you, sir!
I played the original back then so the remake was everything and more than i could have hoped for this was a true gem of a game also i was half expecting you put in squidward sayin OH NO HES HOT when he appeared in 3d great video
The backseat gaming from Toad it killed me 😂
Almost forgot:
One final thing I enjoy, is how, after Punchinello's second fight, once you get the Wonder Chomp, if you trigger the end credits proper, when it shows the restoration efforts at Bowser's castle, Punchinello has been added to his minions, just like Bowser said he'd do. He's involved in fixing up the castle.
Culex is probably a portrayal of classic final bosses. (Or any fantasy final boss…)
That’s exactly what he is. He’s just a spoof of a Final Fantasy boss. Hence why they gave him the FF4 battle music.
This is random, but you should totally play the Mario RPG Armageddon mod! I never played it myself, but I heard it's really difficult. And it has a lot of content to do
It's amazing.
Ngl I was expecting you to call him "Final Form Culex"
"It took you 40 turns to defeat me this time."
Somehow, it only took me 16 turns.
Now do a challenge where you’re not allowed to swap out your characters mid fight
I like how he cut out the wtf part out. When he saw culex in twitch.
I liked most of the postgame fights as the ways you'd go about most of them felt like puzzles in a sense. And then Culex 3D just steals the entire show! I think the first time I beat him, it took me 34 turns, then my second attempt was 25 I believe. Still, it's cool that you can rematch him however many times you like to see if you can break your record! What's absurd is seeing people beat Culex 3D either with a single character or in like 4 turns! In any case, loved playing this remake, your reactions and edits were amazing, and now, I wait for TTYD Remake so I can do Danger Strats again...in HD!!!
Seem to really be enjoying this game, I see
Thanks for be one of the only few youtubers that doesn't put the post game Culex fight
I remember fighting Jinx as soon as I unlocked Monstro Town, got the Jinx Belt and honestly doing it at that level was the most challenging thing I did in the game so far. It's *really* easy outside of post game.
I thank you for blurring the secret fight.
Unlike Others!!
I love how we literally beat the 3d out of culex at the end there
I hoped that after you beat 3D Culex, there would also be a beefed up version of Smithy. But Culex was really awesome as well, left me more than satisfied.
the fact that he beat culex without being level 30 just shows how much of the king of skill he is.
3D Culex blew me away! I love the music and challenge the rematch brings, Culex finally got his wish after 27 years of being a cool hidden easter egg.
Awesome!!!
Now that Mario RPG remake is done, the journey for TTYD remake next year begins! also I was wondering if you might play "The Book of Mario:Thousands of doors" which is TTYD but AI translated as it is funny, but also if you are going to do a TTYD playthrough, either way this was a fun series to watch! thanks for the videos!
Fun fact, if tou kill culex before the crystals, they will revive him at his full 9999 health...anr then die
I knew something was off with how easy the secret boss was! XD
Proof that Mario and friends can beat Sephiroth.
THE ULTIMATE REMAKE
That moment with Johnny's dialogue always seems to give people pause.
"A tremendous duel, just the two of us!"
"Eh, whatever..."
"Without any items, even!"
"Just start th-Wait hol' up, what was that last bit?"
He's not TOO BAD, but maaaan does it make you feel like it'll be worse than it actually is.
9:55
Vernias saying "USE YOUR ITEMS"
Johnny's refight is one of the best refights because the fight is all about timing, timing your attack, timing to block Johnny's attack and you can't use items or specials
ITS PEAKKKK
As an ff14 player who reached endwalker post game, I was waiting to see how you would like the new theme. It’s REALLY good!❤
8:25 DA FUNNEE.
0:45 Classic “Does he know?” moment.
Also:
editor, put the vernias face on 3D Culex
truly a masterpiece of a game no matter what version you experienced first hand, Original or remake I will always love this game for it's charm, quirks, and overall enjoyability
Bro when he saw toads try and help him he roasted him
Well done; Johnny is by far the hardest boss imo when you don't use Attack Scarf, Super Suit, or Lazy Shell armor, took me several tries even at level 30!
9:42
9:55
These are signs of insanity
11:27 that just culex version of heartless angel
ITS OVER 9000!
Fun fact for the Booster fight!
The Snifsters CAN take 9999 damage from Geno Whirl.
Mallow with the geno doll how nice of him and cute
Holy shit this is hilarious, I watched this and fucking died laughing. Huge fan by the way Brent
Now we will be waiting for Paper mario TTYD
I had so much fun battling people, I wish the max level cap was higher, I reached it by the time I got to the end of Nimbus Land. Watching Brent play made me realize just how unintentionally easy I made the game because I hit the max level, and found everybody’s best weapons.
Though Jonny’s fight WAS difficult, solely cuz idk how to perfect shield fire saber.
Man Johnny wanted that 1v1 FD no items Mario only.
he found the z-axis
5:44 Sheer Heart Attack has no weaknesses
Bad ass video
3D Culex actually has 9999 HP. And as one person said, killing him first will make the crystals revive him back to 9999. So the crystals basically pull a "Do it again!" if you kill Culex before them.
That's crazy you didn't do it on Max level Well done.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
If only Brent knew you can fast travel to different parts of a dungeon, like the top of Booster's Tower, using the Map in the menu. Or that you can put the Tortes to sleep so they can't light up the candles.
But seriously, they really designed post-game around all the broken items in the original. I had the Attack Scarf on Mario and Johnny still did a thousand damage despite the +30 to all stats.
I hope Nintendo and Square Enix team up again and make a sequel to this masterpiece.
Fun Fact: The Bob-ombs in the Punchinello rematch can be put to sleep
Damn Culex in the Remake it looks Sick 🔥🔥🦍🦍🦍🦍
And now... we await for Paper Mario and The Thousand Year Door!!!
