This is by far the best Mario RPG of them all! It's almost better then Paper Mario!
1.) The plot. (I like.) I loved the plot in this game. I think it has the best plot in all of the Mario RPG series. I also like being able to use Bowser in this game. He's pretty much an ally, and you don't have to fight him. (Except for like 3 or 4 times I think.) They made this game more epic then Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time.
2.) Battle style. (I like.) Well, I'm happy they made up for Super Paper Mario. They went back to the original RPG battle style! I like the new kind of moves you can use. I like how you don't have to have certain items, since they're your special moves. (Examples; Shells, Ice Flower.)
3.) Minigames. (Like and Dislike.) I like some minigames and I hated others. The most hated minigame is obviously the Carrot Eating minigame. I hated it so much. It took me like 20 tries to just beat it. But, I was really happy when I finally did beat it, so, I got over my hate for it. (Sort of.)
