This game got mixed reactions...because..?

I'm loving it so far. Of course, this is my first Paper Mario game so I can't really compare it much to the previous ones, but it's still pretty solid to me. I have no problem getting stuck for a while, its a nice change of pace trying to figure things out or how to get past a certain point.

Merry Christmas everyone!

a mix of really lame "they changed it, now it sucks" and some genuine worthwhile points about the relevence of RPG battles and the lack of a story compared to the shockingly good stories of the last 2 games.

Mostly that first one though.

This game had a lot to live up to. It had to put the series back on track RPG gameplay wise. I have been waiting for this game for a long time and it is one of the main reasons why I bought a 3DS in the first place. Although my high expectations were set aside the minute I heard the subtitle for this game. I am pleased with the final product. Sure it's no TTYD but the Sticker gameplay is not as bad as I thought it would be.

I got this for Christmas today and played it, and so far I've been enjoying it well enough. The sticker system seems to work fine and having to use them strategically without just using them up is a clever twist. The dialogue is also very witty too, and very much like the dialogue in Super Mario RPG. I've only played the first few levels of the game, though, so my impressions are bound to develop as I play more.

I love the sticker system. Although to he honest after reading through this thread I'm worried about encountering certain bosses where its unclear which stickers to use on them.

Your first mistake was reading through this thread.

Like I said before there was nothing in this game I couldn't figure out on my own. Some people just don't like to figure things out if it takes more then 5 mins!

I got this game along with MGS:3D for Christmas and I have to admit that this is a really good game. I like the sticker system and overall it's a really fun game.

Picked this up earlier today. Haven't tried it yet because I'm currently hooked on KH:DDD (which I also purchased today).

I have set aside $50 of Christmas money to buy this and Cave Story. I just need to find time to download it first!

One thing is certain, Kersti hints are useless!!!!!!! There not even funny 80% of the time which would make up for it in my book >:0

I'm making it my goal to play only this for a few weeks on my 3DS then go to beat a new game... Wish me luck, im ADD with my games... Sadly

If you're talking about dl paper Mario it took me a good 25 mins + so be prepared to wait. Of course my internet speed is a bit slower then it use to be though!

I think she said the same thing every time I asked for advice.

She just describes the are you are in.

Just out of curiosity, what was the easier way to beat the Goomba boss?

Kersti claims if I used the right stickers, the battle would have been a lot easier.

@Emaan

I think you're supposed to use the Fan Thing but the Scissors worked fine for me.

@CapnPancakez, I used the scizzors and it did like 20 damage. I guess that's good?

I unexpectedly got this game for Christmas and I am unexpectedly really enjoying it.

It could easily be my favorite Mario game on the 3DS, if not my favorite game on the 3DS.

Also, I am really happy about this due to the fact that Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion was such a disappointment. It was my most anticipated title of the year, but it was just way too short.

So, thanks Nintendo, for making a really fun and clever game with Paper Mario.

@Emaan
Using them worked fine for me. For the boss of the second world, there is a certain "thing" that will make the battle oh-so much easier though.
