Dude, PMTTYD's battles take place on a stage. I think that's enough to assume it's only a play. PLOT HOLE FOUND! Ok, say you are happily fighting a group of four enemies. You have little HP, so you call Koops to do a Shell Shield. The action command was a little flubbed. You bring out the Quake Hammer and lay some smack down. No one croaks, to your chargin. But after the quake is over, some of the scenery falls over onto you. It does no damage but weakens the Shell Shield. After the enemies attack and the title screen faces you again, you realize that if that tree hadn't taken a nap, the Shield would have held out long enough to withstand the attack of all enemies. However, it broke after attack #3, leaving you vulnerable for the finisher. What does this mean? Well, it makes the game more like a reality show than a planned play, because stage-related events can affect the battle in such a way that the course of action is drastically altered. As a positive example, someone throws you a Super Shroom when you're in Peril, which saves the battle. Am I making sense to anyone else?

I see what you're saying, Toomai, but I think the audience interaction was probably just a means to get the audience at the live performance of the play more involved. When the events of PMTTYD actually occurred, there was no audience.

yeah i dont think PMTTYD was a play because there was only an audiance when you went in a battle and the audiance was nothin but the enemy itself

The actual purpose of an audience was to raise your star power by using appeal and action commands.

The actual purpose of an audience was to raise your star power by using appeal and action commands. But it also had an effect in the battles against Hooktail, Cortez, and Magnus 2.0. Because they affect the length of the battle, they affect Mario's stats when he finishes, which in turn affects the rest of the adventure.

Hm. I'd forgotten about that. I guess we could say that that was just the way it was portrayed in the play, and that in the real adventure, that didn't even happen. Or maybe in the real adventure there was a large group of people watching those battles. I don't know.

If people decide to rationalize that those battles never actually happened, then it's just as fair to say that the whole game itself didn't happen.

No the battles happened but there wasn't an audience.

what Do you mean NO audience?

Post by Claws on Dec 17, 2005 9:18:51 GMT -5
The parts of the play in which the audience affected the outcome of the battle didn't happen. Mario still fought Hooktail and the others, but there was no audience.

But there's other parts of the stage that can't be ignored. For example, I once beat Magnus 2.0 easily because of the freezing fog.

*shakes head* No, the same rules apply. If you're willing to scrap part of the game, then you need to be equally willing to scrap the rest of it, otherwise you're being hypocritical.

I'm not sCarpping anything. I was just giving another argument.
EDIT: Fix the censor, it's picking up parts of words.

well generaly the way we beat the boss,isn't the way mario acctualy beat the bosses
there is a paper mario TTYD and PM manga so those games had to have happened

The fact that there's a manga doesn't mean anything. By that logic, then the Mario Super Show actually happened too (which is an idea that I'm strongly opposed to).
