In my opinion this stands out as the best game ever made.
When I was young and the Snes was in it's prime. I came across a game called Super Mario Rpg Legend of the seven Stars at a rental store I had never heard of it and neither had anyone else I knew, so I said what the hell I'll try it out so I rented it, and played through most of it and could not finish it within the week I had it, I loved it so much that I begged my Mom to renew it and That's what she would end up doing. I finally beat it within that week and even after beating It I played it and played it again, The game blew my mind, I loved it So much I wanted to own It myself so I asked for it for Christmas, my parents looked for it everywhere but could not find it, It was actually a game that was really hard to find, but when Christmas came around to my surprise there it was in one of my presents, it was one of the best Christmas's ever.
So I want to ask a question? what makes a game flawless,? perfect,? the best game you have ever played? If I had to answer this question I would say how memorable It was, a game that truly stood out, a game you couldn't stop playing, a game you truly love so much that you could not live with out playing. For me that game has to be this one. This game is just something special, I have always loved it and always will I would like to share with you how special this game is in my review in the hopes that most people will pick up this game and see the magic in it that I did.
So lets start up with the story Bowser is up to no good as usual and captures Princess Peach, so after that Mario goes out to save the day once again. Once you defeat Bowser, Star road gets destroyed and a Sword crashes down Into Bowser's castle Mario, Bowswer, and Peach go flying in different directions, This is where the game really starts. you must find Seven Stars to repair Star Road and Destroy a guy named Smithy who has stolen Bowser's Castle and continues to make robotic monsters. So I'll be honest I am not a huge Rpg fan, however this game is not a huge complex Rpg and that's perfect for me, the graphics are perfect(for 16 bit) may be the best on the Snes, the music is amazing again some of the best on the Snes. There is so much to do on this game also and every place you go is special and enjoyable, it honestly feels like they put a lot of hard work on each and every spot you go to make it different and fresh. there are so many new enemies again it feels like they really put a lot of effort on them because there are so many of them. So I want to talk about the characters now, Mario is awesome I don't think there is anybody that would dislike him, Then you have a new character, Mallow While at the time he comes into your party he can be useful I usually don't use him that much but I do like him as a character and hes worth having in this game, Then next you have somebody that also made this game really special for me and I just think he is amazing and that somebody is Geno he's my favorite character and I just love him as a character in the game he is a huge help in your party and he's honestly just great. Then your next Partner Bowser, yeah that's right King Koopa, joins your team and he is also unfreaking believable, I wouldn't say better then Geno, but he is another huge assessment to the team and I just love that he works together with Mario on this game(or only to get his castle back because Mario desperately needed him, as he would say lol), then you have Princess Peach as your last partner, well lets be honest she is not the best ally but she can be when you get the Lazy Shell armor but that just makes the game easy. Every Level is different and there are so much of them in this game, there is so much to do you will spend at least a month finding everything, and sure there are a lot of games now that are much longer but most games in the Snes day were very short and could be beaten very quickly so a month is a long time for a Snes game. Every boss is also different and enjoyable to play, There is so much I could say about each world but this review would be like an hour long so just trust me when I say that there really was so much effort put into the whole over world.
Have you ever played a game that was so good that it literally made you depressed that it was over? This is one of those games. One huge reason is obviously it's a great game, but also the ending, there is nothing much to expect when you beat a game on the Snes, because while there are some good ending on some games there is a limit to what they can make of an ending, due to graphical capabilities, however on Mario Rpg you would think that there was no such thing as those capabilities. First off the music is amazing, so good you could almost cry and the ending is so good and emotional that it also wants to make you cry. Honestly could this game get any better the whole game is a joy to play through and then not only that but the ending literally wants to make you play it again. There's also a Question I want to ask, Why have they not made a sequel? I know that Paper Mario is technically the sequel and I love that game, but I want a direct sequel, I want Geno, mallow, and other new characters so they need to get on that lol.
This game is amazing a true masterpiece I love it, if I had a choice to only play one video game for the rest of my life this would be the one. that's all that can really be said about this game amazing. If you are a gamer I beg you play this game, maybe you will love it as much as I do, This game defines Nostalgia, it's just so good, every game should play this every single one.
