Beating Paper Mario: TTYD Without Items (Low Level) 

I can't believe we're finally in TTYD's 20th anniversary year.

I actually feel second hand embarrassment for Cortez after seeing his segment 💀

Hey Koop there's this new Mario game coming out this year called Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, not sure if you've heard of it. Seems like you're kinda game - might want to check it out!

I had to process how guards were reducing damage from 1 to 0 during the same attack. Guess Doopliss using Multibonk has the damage degrade over time unlike Goombella in Chapter 4.

the ground pound at 17:14 sounds dope with the music

All the boss themes in this game are such a jam.

I find this always impressive how far you can actually push yourself in this game with so little resources available and only relying on pre-emptive knowledge of enemie-behaviour. Especially without Superguarding, but then again, a lot of strength is gained outside the leveling and badge-system itself. (Not undermining the challenge ofc.) Makes me wonder what the actual minimal resources are for a particular boss to be taken down with, if we included Upgradables and Ranks for the partners (altho for the former it would require sequence-breaking or cheating so eh). I'm aware some similar examples can be found on this channel, tho. Same for enemie-patterns; how much would the Player-Boss Interactions actually change if enemies were allowed to have fully randomized (as opposed to pattern-based/plannable) fights? And how would optimal strategies differ? I assume they become more glorified to specific cheese-strats, but what do I know. (And for context, moves based on HP would be available from the start in cases like Rawk Hawk) Could be interesting to explore if possible, but eh.

Koop is definitely the modern-day shadowkirby2007.

another koop banger to start off the new year right

I'm pretty sure that every single fight was perfect damage

Happy New Year Koop. This playthrough must've been hella fun

Great video! Though i wish the text stayed on screen a bit longer. Can't read that fast

I’ve had TTYD since around 2010 and my brother just beat it in 3 days and he let me beat the shadow queen but wanted to beat her himself so he didn’t let me save after. I used hella items 😂

Good stuff!

very cool

TTYD Bosses: "Ha! You didn't level up! How do you plan to beat us?" Mario: "Danger strats. Also, my attack depends on my equipment, not my level." Bosses: "Oh fu-"

Wait, this ISN’T how you’re supposed to kill bosses? I just dont really use items in general not gonna lie

Runny that the remake runs at 30fps instead of 60, at least it appears to from the footage

Yoshi obliterated Grubba😂

How do you know when the Shke Sprites load up during the final boss?

Goombella really pulls her weight... best girl.

@24:42 my memory is slightly fuzzy but, the bite attack can be guarded if i recall. Actually i could swear i saw someone super guard it.

15:15 dang. 18 damage. That’s a good amount.

Did you know that Bowser and Kammy are actually susceptible to Showstopper?

I find it unlikely that gloomtail cannot be done at level 0. Is there some hyper specific edge case rng scenario I'm not considering?

This is a late reply, but i keep seeing you say "badge name" and level 1 or in shadow queen case, level 4. Does that mean you equipped 4 copies of the same badge?

Goombella can get multibonk before hooktail!?
