Super Mario RPG: The Legend of the Seven Stars

How the hell does a Switch game in 2023 look significantly uglier than a 1995 SNES game that's visuals were already really dated lmao

The remake is a lot quicker but mostly by virtue of cutting a lot of the 90's RPG tedium that was in the original, so despite being a breeze I think the Switch version is slightly better

The remake policy needs to change lmfao it's so dumb. These are two different games entirely.

Loved this, just as fun as the original. Although I have some complaints:
-Frame rate issues
-Some kind of voice acting would've been nice. Maybe some grunts and yells. The cutscenes feel awkward when it's just silence.
-All the mini games and platforming sections suck just as bad as the original. Wish they could've made them better.
- Way too easy. The original was too but this feels even easier.

These are nitpicks though and I recommend it to newcomers and to those revisiting an old classic. I was really impressed that they kept all the charm while bolstering the graphics a ton.

Awesome remake, always hated the grimy visuals of the original (and similar looking games like DKC) and this fixed that and added some smart QoL stuff. Maybe Nintendo and Square will make a brand new sequel to this remake that kicks everything up a notch, that would be incredible – especially when Mario RPGs have been stagnant for years.

It doesn't make sense that the remakes of Mario RPG, Shadow of the Colossus or Metroid Prime don't have their own page while Link's Awakening and Demon's Souls do.

man this was wonderful. as someone who's been meaning to play the original basically my entire life but never actually got around to it, this more than lived up to the hype. second favourite mario rpg i think

everything about this game is fine, but remaking it just highlighted how unremarkable the game is by today's standards

when I go back and play old games, what grips me is that there are still aspects about it that are still super unique, or timeless aspects that are still good to this day. this game just didn't have anything that hasn't been done a million times better in other mario rpgs.
