This is the real Mario RPG 2, by which I mean it is its equal in terms of sheer snooze inducing boredom. I hear people complain that later entries over tutorialize but fucking christ this game already doesn't know when to shut the fuck up. And the writing isn't even good, it's just "woah so wacky" but never actually humorous/funny. No wonder Undertale was inspired by this.
not surprising that i barely made it past the first tutorial then lol
