WARNING: There is some profanity in this video, children viewership is not entirely recommended. You've been WARNED! [Please comment and/or rate the video, constructive feedback and comments are ALWAYS welcome!] Castle of Illusion Starring Mickey Mouse is copyright of the Walt Disney Company and released on the Sega Genesis. Recording, gameplay and commentary done by me. In Castle of Illusion, Ruins Ruin You! Seriously though, the third level is definitely a place where the game starts through hockey sticks at your face. Or for a better term, bats. Fortunately, they seem to only do that on odd-numbered levels. Bookcase Land has other maniacal ways of killing you however. Here's a hint: What happens if a copy of War and Peace falls off the top shelf and you're under it? Enjoy the video! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rJhcYIpCeQ

When doing the Paper Mario Randomizer: Double Pain challenge, I began to realize that what I wanted was not a randomized playthrough, but something that was the same adventure, but more balanced and difficult. I had kind of done something like that for Super Mario RPG Revolution (which I promise I'll get done this year), but I wanted to see what had been going on in the Paper Mario hacking scene after experiencing some really neat changes that were made with the randomizer. Consider myself late to the party as Paper Mario has been seeing a LOT of work recently. This one seems to be one of the most well-known! I have played through the game for the most part, on the last Chapter of the game and have enjoyed it for the most part. I've watched videos and learned a lot about the content surrounding this game, but I've noticed that while they are plenty of video playthroughs, I don't see a whole lot of comparison in reference to the original game AND what this modification is actually doing. That is one goal of this guide and another would be to provide some insight on how to take out the enemies and bosses in the game, as there's a LOT to unpack! I have provided a blurb from the Readme for more information. For those wondering why I am not using the most recent version, which is supposedly v1.5.1, well... there's an issue with it. For some reason, there are parts where the game crashes (for example, trying to read your partners' letters for one and most notably, during the fight with General Guy). As a result, I went with a version that has given me no issues and has provided some officiality to the game itself. Also, this is the first video making use of hybrid commentary (live and post), that I've made and enjoyed putting together, excited for future videos of this and in general! --------README excerpt------- Often considered "The Dark Souls of Paper Mario", the mod is incredibly difficult. It was designed with elite challenge runners in mind, and unless you have extensive knowledge of Paper Mario, you may struggle with much of the content. For those players we offer **Paper Mario: Master Quest Jr** which has all of the content the original has, with a much more reasonable difficulty curve. If you want to stream the mod, starting with Jr. is recommended. ### **Some of the new content includes:** - 50+ new maps, including a brand new dungeon! - A fully functional Pit of 100 Trials. - Boss refights for all major bosses. - 60+ new enemies, ranging from recolors to fully custom bosses. - Heavy changes to enemy AI, and new battle mechanics not found in the vanilla game. - A number of map changes to keep some areas feeling fresh, and keep the player on their toes. - Item and Badge rebalancing, some more obscure tools are now viable. - New badges and partner attacks. ---------------------------------------- Enjoy the video and please share your thoughts! ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XN_m6U8mK0
