What are your options?

Cemu or original hardware? I love playing the original on the Wii U but it’s cool upscaling to 1440p

Picked up Paper Mario TTYD on Switch to see what all the hype is about, and yeah honestly all the OG fans were right about it. It’s the best one I’ve played in the series by a longshot.

Without context, I would assume Sticker Star and Color Splash released before TTYD - as if they were still figuring out where to go with the series, and would eventually evolve into something better as technology advanced. Then TTYD comes along, and not only has more mechanical depth, but also so much more life and creativity in it.

I’ve had Kenshi on my wishlist for a long time, and I haven’t pulled the trigger. What’s your favorite part about it? Most of what I know is that it’s punishing and has deep roleplaying opportunities, but I don’t know a lot of the specifics.

Most of the story criticism I’ve heard fall into a handful of categories:

• Overall plot seeming convoluted and hard to follow (which is understandable when you throw both time travel and parallel universes into the same story)

• Whitewashed portrayal of racism used for story aesthetics

• Ending feeling confusing and/or unsatisfying

• Certain story moments feeling out of place and/or undermining things that other story moments set up

I haven’t seen much in the way of players expecting/predicting plot twists.

I found the intro to be really obtuse but dang if pushing through didn’t pay off. That game is great.
