I am so glad you showed off a lot of creativity in this run, many challenge runs tend to take the easiest way out, which doesn't always pan out great for the viewer experience. Loved the gags, went back to replay that spicy pasta ending lmao
I'll admit when he did the danger mario segment I was like "Hold on.... you're not going to..." but he stood by his pride and didn't. I recall he also didn't in PM64 despite mentioning it as he wanted to show every fight (including Master 3) is possible without it and he stated that "If I lower my health to 5 that technically isn't "taking damage", but it IS reducing my health so therefore...it's taking damage) and thus banned it. I really love the integrity of his run. That's what top tier paper mario gameplay looks like. Strategizing, not watching a video or hearing about a strat and suddenly becoming an expert. XD (Gosh can't wait for the remake to come out.....)
The music choices through the whole video (including Sticker Star and Origami King music) was absolute respect! Made me genuinely wonder how the music is going to upgrade when the remake comes out cause with new instruments and quality I'm sure they can push out some mad bangers.
It's a weird translation situation the game has, the Japanese version of the game refers to Vivian as a boy while the rest of languages refers to her as a girl, it may be a mistranslation that hopefully they could fix for the remake
@@bestaround3323 He said outright at the beginning of the video that he wasn't allowing super guards because they would have made the video uninteresting. 1:33
I didn't think you'd be able to do the pit or the shadow queen. Shouldn't have doubted you, holy crap. Those strategies you used were wild. You should do more videos like these, the way you make and edit them is very entertaining
TTYD is a very unhinged game in terms of crazy strats, you can 1 round almost everything in the game if you spend enough time doing setups/ glitches/ farming...
While it wasn't directly stated, it was indirectly stated why Damage Dodge is worse. The interaction with Last Stand is why. In 64, Damage Dodge triggers after Last Stand, so if it reduces the damage to 1, Damage Dodge makes it 0. In TTYD, that's not the case
Actually the real reason he calls out Damage dodge in particular is because of the piercing damage moves. If you can't defend you can't get the benefit of damage dodge. Though he didn't mention it, he kind of made the point clear when he mentioned "In PM 64, Bowser couldn't pierce and defense was a straight reduction, now almost all the end game bosses pierce defense..." Just have to remember what he said about Damage dodge. Also Magnus Von Grapple 2.0 is similar, he explicitly says "But he has no defense piercing moves, meaning we get +6 defense out the gate" as the first battle has that quake move which can't be guarded.
Kappy’s “unsuperguardable attacks” short coming in handy for a prediction here. We can’t superguard Hooktail’s or Gloomtail’s bite, as well as 2/3 Shadow Siren attacks, and Shadow Queen’s attack with the hands that pull you under the stage. So I expect it’s only possible if there’s a consistent way to kill those enemies before these types of attacks go off.
Hooktail, Gloomtail can both be 2/3 rounded with perfect setups and Shadow Queen... you can cheese very easily with a giga glass cannon set up and/or perma farm power badges...
There are ton of little secrets like that, most people didn't even know about badge farming when it first came out and even then not every badge effect stacks like you'd expect (or they don't stack in ways you'd expect, stacking item hog, heart finder, flower finder and money money all cancel each other out, it just manpiulates the odds of getting one of the four drops relative to each other and while 32 is the max number of units that can drop, item hog is more the chance an item drops period and is based on the type and number of enemies you defeated, but item hog only affects the odds an item WILL drop period, not the odds you get an item from the enemies.) Same for how much the dodge badges stack their bonuses to make Mario nearly unhittable. It's pretty cool how indepth things are. Just a shame it's all overkill even to casual players. Hope the remake makes a challenge mode.
I genuinely don't know if it's possible to beat Sticker Star, or Origami king damageless, but I know Color Splash is impossible due to the nature of the final battle. The only "Thing card" that can one shot bowser is the card that you get after beating him, his own castle, and defense cards will prevent Huey from absorbing the black paint so he'll just heal himself like he does when he hits you normally. I think Mizztar Blizzard in Sticker Star being the only boss who's immune to being crumpled was proven possible to beat damageless, but I think you need a damage sponge for one turn cause of his multi phase battle structure. and Origami King.... that's impossible. I just remembered the bosses will hit you guaranteed as they're more puzzle based and thus no strategy can beat them damageless. Just leaves Super paper mario which should be relatively easy damageless, just "don't get hit" (and spam blocky blocks). Though a minimum damage run would still be interesting for the second set of PM games. Namely Color Splash.
@@MarioMastari would imagine the bigger problem for a super paper Mario run would be how grindy it would be since block blocks can only be purchased once flopside is unlocked and save points can be tedious to go back to repeatedly for some levels
I will now defend Veil. She's actually one of the best characters in Fire Emblem Engage, her unique class serves as a dragon unit, meaning that she can get maximum benefit out of many engage rings, especially Soren if you've got him. She also has quite respectable stats and is useable from the getgo, and has a signature weapon that's actually really good. In addition, she has a useful passive ability, which whilst not as good as Alear's can still make a difference and save your units at times. Not even counting gameplay, she is also one of the few characters who is actually relevant to the story, along with Alear, Mauvier and Hortensia. Most of the rest of your units don't really have much importance sadly. She gets some really nice critical hit lines and some genuinely great moments, even if they are a bit silly and- Wait. That's Veyle, not Veil. Yeah, that move sucks..... Sorry for wasting your time.
I had this same thought in this video, and yes the Veyle/Soren crit build is really funny to pull off. I really hope Intelligent Systems updates their little Petalburg gamer Toad to play Fire Emblem Engage.
I don't have to defend veil, I can just use veil and completely avoid all attacks (veil slander) for a turn. I used veil a lot when I was a kid and I still don't know why. It ended up getting me more game overs than simply trying to guard a weak attack. I guess it was cheap and it sounded cool?
I thought I understood the entire Vivian lost in translation/censorship thing, so I have to ask for myself. Wasn't she suppose to be a transwoman and was insulted by her sisters through being called male associated term, so wouldn't calling her a cute boy come across as an insult as it means she tries to present as feminine and fails? Or do you go off the cross dressing aspects (which I know less about)? Or is that phrase not an insult like I'm thinking it would be? I want to ask because the internet is a pack of wolves, and for my own understanding. This isn't a mark against you, I just want to be 1000% sure. I've screwed up enough in my life and I'm trying to improve.
had to double check too, i dont rly know honestly, i try not to get into the vivian trans discussion made a good call asking though, the internet hears one thing from you and they all wanna attack you
I made a big comment as a reply here as to why she is very much intended to be a trans woman, but seems like it somehow got lost? And i'm feeling a bit too lazy to write it again. Maybe RU-vid is doing something weird and it'll pop up again in a bit and make me look like a fool. If so, i'll delete this reply. I'm not going to re-write it, because i'm lazy, but the gist of it is that in the japanese version she refers to herself as a woman, and is constantly called out for it by Beldam. This is a very direct confirmation of her gender identity that is hard to misinterpret. Some other characters and the party description refers to her as a man pretending to be a woman, but that is what the general understanding of transgender people was back when the game was released, so it lines up with her being trans, with the Italian script affirming her gender identity, calling her proud of being a woman. I doubt it was supposed to be an offensive or rude comment, so it's very forgivable, even if it still stings from having witnessed comments of similar nature with intention to hurt.
I'll be honest. I like Vivian but I dread over any mention of her as it can easily spiral into a shitshow since some people can't control themselves and brings up the whole "Vivian is Cis or Trans" and it never ends well. I'd be unironically okay with people keeping it to themselves instead of making a big deal out of it since it's just a fictional character at the end of the day and most LGBTQ characters are ironically written by cis people.
The Original Japanese version of the game has Beldam mocking Vivian in Chapter 2 by saying something along the line of them being a man and not a Shadow Sister, implying that Vivian is Transgender and Beldam is mocking that. In the translations (Most of them I think), the Transphobic insults are changed to Beldam calling Vivian “PLUG-UGLY!” And the situation of her gender is completely removed from the script.
Did Fatguy photoshop multiple frames to get that in there? Or did he import a single line from TTYD Repainted without importing all the insane textures at the same time, just so he could record that clip? I’d honestly give him insane props if it was the latter.
Your editing is hilarious and your strategies are genius lol. Embarrassingly I've never played a paper Mario game, but i got into Strider7x's series a number of years ago when I had a roommate who casually speedran paper Mario 😊 I've been a fan of this type of content like challenge runs for years as well, so this plus your trivia about the game are wonderful, please keep it up!
Dude, the music choices in this video are SO GOOD (And you're awesome for putting them all in a pinned comment) This video must've taken ages to edit, but it was so worth it, this was such an entertaining watch from start to finish. I could completely see myself coming back to it when I'm bored and just want a good video to watch
I think more than anything I appreciate seeing a lot of weird interactions within the game and how certain bosses act. It's far more interesting tackling these challenges in this way instead of just Superguarding everything.
On top of that he also explained every avenue of the "easy mode" and included why it isn't as optimal while showing a variety of different possible strats. Him MAKING Veil work on one of the hardest bosses casually was peak. and Kudos to him using defensive strats in TTYD, while it's more common in 64, I almost never see people use defense in TTYD as it's usually about Mega Rush strats.
I'm pretty sure he didn't NEED to, he was just proving a point on why Superguard would be broken for this challenge so banned it for the remainder of it.
Cause everyone knows the fight is scripted and impossible to lose, there's literally no reason not to just get it out of the way. He actually super guarded as the ONLY way to do damage to him to make it a bit more interesting but it was blink and you miss it, so he still got entertainment+ equipped.
@@MarioMastarThe challenge was to beat the game without taking damage and without super guards. It's odd to make an exception for a fight that shouldn't need one.
20:28 Fatguy, I love your content fr, but this caught me way off guard. Everything you hear about Vivian is either that she’s a cis woman or she’s trans, so I feel like calling her a boy under either circumstance is likely more than a bit off-putting for any of your queer viewers. All love. 💚
Syncing those animations to the music, show casing what the failures look like, and showcasing alternate strategies with a footnote of why he didn't do it really shows he went above and beyond. Definitely earned a like.
Great video man! Super interesting, and easy to watch! Even though i love these challenge runs in a single episode, i also love the usual video series with the gang. There is an unexplainable charm watching all of you gather in a discord call and talk about random stuff while watching you play, that's why i've been watching since pro mode. Love your stuff man PD: Merry Christmas and happy new year to all of you!
i really love this video, usually you just sweep through bosses in your challenge runs, and i often also just kinda cruise through everyone except the shadow queen and Smorg, so i really dig how this video effectively deep dives the aspects of bosses most people wouldn't know about, for instance i had no idea krump could act through status in the three-match? thats wild
i wish i could have bin there for the live stream but work but i knew that before my day ended i had to watch this amazing video. so exited to see it and it was amazing man. love your work
I learned so much from watching this! I almost want to try playing TTYD again just to try some of these broken strats during casual play... Great job on the video and thanks for putting in the time and effort to put this video together!
I hate this format so much. It isn't a question on whether you can do it because one of the most basic parts of the game mechanics allows you to do it. It's just a hard challenge. 90% of "Can you beat X without Z" Videos aren't 'can you beat' videos because you know it is possible to begin with, just that it's hard. Just name the title "Thousand year door no challenge run" instead.
long-time viewer! i dont usually leave comments, but the editing and pacing in this video was fun and perfect! it was a really fun watch both to have in the background and watch actively. i'd love to see more content like it in the future, and thank you for all of the awesome content you make 🙂 very much looking forward to seeing what you do in 2024!
10 year old me would have been blown away with this. Who am I kidding, I'm still impressed. So excited for the remake. TTYD is one of my top 5 games of all time.
actually not EVERY attack is super guardable. and some multi-hits like flame or poison breaths require multiple super guards which are frame perfect and are 50/50 chance that you are allowed to super guard.
I'm not really into most of your humor, not saying you aren't funny, just not my style. But, that Steve Brule edit got me. You have gained one more sub, check it out!
i used veil in the pit of 100 trials on the giant bob-omb fights and just used their charging turns to appeal and use sweet feast as free healing. I know that dodging charged attacks is like, veils thing, but it felt satisfying to just get a free full heal and then just vwoop out of existance before the bombs exploded
Yeah, Veil isn’t great, but it’s a nice tool to have when you get caught in a tough spot and are too cheap to use items. Plus, it’s only 1 FP, so it’s a good fallback if you’re certain something that you NEED to dodge is coming. Looking at you, Mega Breath.
my name is jordan. i tabbed out as i clicked this video to let it load as i was checking discord, scared the absolute bejesus outta me with that intro.
suppose I'll guess, yeah you can beat everyone with danger strats, pianta grinding, probably flower finder, spikey stomp, and a defense plus just in case
45:50 okay but does dooPliss have any connection to the shadow sirens? why is he working with them?? what imPortance does he have to the story outside of having a crystal star to retrieve? (also as you can see he took my lowercase P someone helP me)
yo man, just wanna say, ur editing plus commentary is super funny and it really keeps the content part entertaining the full way through. 10/10 vid lol
