Message: [QUOTE="MasterEn, post: 46234, member: 3287"] technically, mario 64 is more open world. you're not supposed to, but you can collect the stars out of order. and only a few stars are locked behind power-up and you can get those by the time that defeat bowser in the dark world. sunshine limits progression a bit more primarily because there aren't enough courses to house 120 stars. a good chunk of the stars are tied to blue coins, and they are hidden in different spots in specific shines. you can't actually get 100 coin shines whenever you want. only certain shines actually even have enough for 100 coins. some don't get pass 70 coins. it ends up feeling like there is a specific way that you are supposed to play, and there is little wiggle room to do it how you want to. [automerge]1737411293[/automerge] Super paper mario is the weakest one. i did like the story the most, but the partners could have been more varied. they are all just variations of fairies. one is fine. not 9-10. i had a player's guide when i got the game for christmas, so i used that during my playthrough. i haven't been back since then. i just play the 64 and gamecube installments. but at least there were characters in those games. from what i've heard about the newer ones. all characters and party members are just generic characters that join for a chapter and then leave.
