Tbh, I don't mind the recent graphics changes, I think they're fine. But i do question, yeah, why did they bother to do a full on remake instead of simply remastering it? Because it's not like the original game's graphic system or physics system or whatnot was totally broken beyond repair. They probably could've done most of the changes they wanted to make to the style without having to redo everything from the ground up. Just seems like an odd choice to me.
The game didn't need a remaster or remake in the first place, thanks to the artstyle and other design choices it actually aged extremely well. Paper Mario 64 would've benefited more from a remaster, although if they had fucked that game up, it would've stung a lot more.
Ehh, yeah in most departments it did age well but I'm not going to discount the benefit that upgraded textures have, especially on modern displays.
PM64, I feel, was retrofitted with the paper aesthetic much later in development than people probably think. There's certain effects that aren't even in future games, like how the character sprites actually have an algorithm for light reflecting off of characters as if they were three dimensional. You can mostly see this when walking down hallways as Peach. The contours of her hair and face illuminate differently as she walks near light sources. That most likely explains why the art style in 64 is so different. That said, that also means it will be difficult to replicate. If it gets remade, they'll unquestionably lean in to the paper designs once again, and so it'll just become homogenized with the rest of the series.
Why don't you play the mod to get an idea why it got the label?
It's a shitty trope anyways
Better than what it's being replaced with.
Trans fairies are fairies. 
Sad but unsurprising. The industry is completely creatively devoid and has been for a long time now. The Gamecube era is like the last time Nintendo were actually good. Yeah, some of those early Wii games were good (Mario Galaxy, Prime 3, Super Paper Mario, Twilight Princess) but most of those were either straight up Gamecube games (Twilight Princess) or were initially developed for the Gamecube and moved to the Wii (Super Paper Mario, Mario Galaxy, Prime 3)
I can already predict this shit is gonna cause a lot of REEEEing from trannies, I won’t lie that this whole shit has actually made not want to touch TTYD anymore, I’ll just stick to PM64 or play Super Paper Mario instead. I haven’t played the former, yet at least but I do remember Super Paper Mario being good for what it was, hard carried by its story and characters.
It's literally Yasuke, a historical figure, a retainer to fucking Oda Nobunaga. Nioh included him in both games and that was made by Koei Tecmo, a JAPANESE company. Ubisoft will fuck his story up, there's no doubt about that, but it's not this culture war bullshit. This thread is fucking embarrassing.
What is even the point of the challenge if the challenge is completely mitigated?
What i talked about is that these same peolpe probably didn't know a single thing about him until now. With Nioh it was just a cool boss fight but now you have people pretending they are history experts over this guy.
