Let's see

before I pick this up again, I think there's an update (or two) on due from before the break, so I'll see what I can remember.

Hmm so appearently after I've beaten World 3 I went to the ship port, did some hilariously unnecessary stuff and ended up fighting that giant cheep-cheep

From what I remember I just fabulously failed against him multiple times.

https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKEqw9xcxA Also I appearently got really lucky at the slot machine.

https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKEqw2fQhg Look I even made 4chan jokes that nobody's going to understand.

After like 5 hours I somehow beat him.

Next thing I do is run into Bowser Jr. on the overworld between Worlds 4 5 and 6, and I'm just like "fuck off" and bash him back into the nothingness where he was in like the rest of the game.

I'm serious that was the only time he showed up other than like that one time in 1-1 or 1-2.

Anyways, this day ended at this save point in 4-1:

https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKEqw7WSPw

So I've beaten 4-1 and as far as I could tell it was just the obnoxious sticker bullshit where you had to backtrack to get a heater.

zlCfzSWVwjIWOqwryj


Also did this game just pull an WWF on me by showing poor penguins with their natural habitat melted down?
I deny this. DOWN WITH ANTARCTICA

4-2 was a slide, and what I remember was that it was kinda fun.

TL;DR: I'm in 4-3 the enigmansion now. I've cleared like one room and I'm at a save point right now. Unfortunately I have for some reason not made a screenshot of that.

So be sure to be here in like 3 1/2 hours if you want to see me torture myself again.
 
Re: Freakworld plays Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Status: I'M BACK)

Out of all the things that have happened in this game before

Out of all the bullshit

Randomness

Easyness and yet total unfairness if you don't have the correct item.

Out of all the SHIT that has happened in World 2, out of all the BOREDOM in World 3, out of all the frustration in the Cheep Cheep fight

Out of every single fucking thing that makes this game to the pile of rotten shit that it is

I think I've found my new master.

World 4-3 The Enigmansion.

Now now, don't get me wrong. I FUCKING HATE THE LEVEL.

And here's why:

So once you enter the level you get this fun little sub-plot cutscene of some boos who have invaded the mansion of some rich generic Toad (srsly that guy even smells like money). Sounds familiar?

Hmmm

Mansion.jpg


Nope never seen that before.

So I thought "oh great there is a level that is referencing Luigi's Mansion, that can't be soooo bad, right.

Right...?"

Especially because of how fucking everybody kept telling me how this is EASILY the singular BEST level in the entire game, I was pretty, dare I say it...

...hyped.

So eventually the goal is to find all the boos, fight them, and seal them away in some book.

Sounds easy right? OF COURSE IT'S NOT.

But let's start where I started, in the kitchen.

Essentially there's one weak ass boo there, I captured him. For some reason you can steal all the Fridges, ovens etc. from the kitchen and turn them into things.

I feel like Mario is not saving this house but secretly robbing the guy.

In the upper floor is a painting of that Toad guy.

zlCfzSitwJcuwOezYl


That evil demon sent straight from hell to bring forth his evil message of evilness in the form of ridiculously bad gameplay.

Anyways, after I run around for a bit I realize HOW FUCKING BIG THE ENTIRE PLACE IS.

Like really, you guys remember the first mansion in LM2?

It's about as big as that.

And it's one level.

...Sounds cool doesn't it?

Yeah, NO IT DOESN'T.

After running around for a while I'm seemingly clueless as to where Boos could be, except for one that I could see through a window and this one right here:

zlCfzSit2iINbWD0s_


Shall I give a list of the random bullshit this game pulled on me?

Let's see...

-In two rooms you can peel off THE ENTIRE FUCKING WALLS and interchange them, and it's the only way to proceed.
-There's a barely visible, openable window in one of the hallways through which you have to exit.
-You need to unlight torches/fires by jumping against them/hammering them TWICE without even the merest hint of what to do.
-There's a boo in some random clock
-There's a stack of no more than EIGHTYFOUR boos in one wardrobe and theres basically only one sticker, the infinijump, which is in the same level but still, capable of dispatching them. If you don't have that you're fucked.

^ALL OF THIS WITHOUT ANY SORT OF CLUE OF COURSE

And

you don't know when you're fucking finished.

Well there's a text from kersti when you got them all, but you don't know that before you have them all.

And so I constantly went back and forth from the socket of the book where I checked if it was full to traversing this ridiculously complex level and searching for those damn ghosts.

Also Mario just totally robs the place.

zlCfzSiuGzYQ6w-Of8


I MEAN HE EVEN BREAKS OPEN HIS SAFE.

After a while I run into these boos having a house party:

zlCfzSiuSrAkGxRVop


I bet they got paid a huge sum of coins by Shigeru Miyamoto to associate themselves with this enormous TREASON on good tastes, so they though they might as well party it out for as long as they can.

Well guess who also got paid a lot of money to associate himself with this game.

That's right, our dearest friend, Kamek.

https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACaVCdT1eWR3Q

He summons that giant fucking Big Boo after you got all the other Boos (which alone took me about 1 1/2 hours).

Essentially you're supposed to use the vacuum cleaner to dispatch him, but I denied that and just took care of him with my second Infinijump sticker.

After a while I've FINALLY beaten him.

At that point I was so raged up I think I freaked everybody out of the chatroom. Oh well.

After that you have sealed up all the Boos, and then Mr. Posh McToad comes back and invites you to tea.

I was like "FUCK YOU GIVE MY GOAL POINT SO I CAN BE FINALLY DONE WITH THIS."

After that you're basically done.

If you aren't as stupid as me AND SEARCH FOR THE GOALPOINT FOR LIKE 15 MINUTES.

Guess what, it's back where you had to exit the house via that window.

Great.

AFTER ALMOST EXACTLY 2 HOURS (I've started at about 19:10 and finished at 21:15) I'VE FINALLY BEATEN ONE LEVEL

Exactly then Dragonfreak came back and out of my cries of joy thought I had beaten the game.

Well I'd rather have, but sadly no.

VERDICT: Out of all the short, shitty but relatively simple level this one stands out by its EXTREME randomness, shittyness and downright LENGTH. That has been a disgrace, and I've come to the conclusion that this beats 2-5 as the worst level for me.

NEVER. AGAIN.

PROGRESS: https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAADtVCijpdCn6g

NEXT TIME: That has been the absolute bottom of the barrel, I think nothing in this game can shock me anymore. WE'LL SEE.

You didn't freak us out, we stayed and turned it into "Animal Crossing playtimes with Ice, Icicle, and Stargazing" for like half an hour before I left

Eh, better then when I played it.

and broke the case sticker star came in
well i broke the case because i sat on it but still

Hey dude, did you get the portrait in the mansion?

yes

I got all the shit

I robbed him for making me suffer this bad.

Next time I will just burn the whole place down I think.

EDIT: Forget it there will not be a next time.

Well let's see how many people there are currently online.

EDIT: appearently not many...

hm

well i supose ill play smash until somebody shows up.
 
Re: Freakworld plays Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Status: I'M BACK)

oh come on

theres got to be someone around here
 
Re: Freakworld plays Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Status: I'M BACK)

This is what I deserve for being slightly optimistic.

Rule 1 in Sticker Star: There's always a bigger fish.

A rotten fish that smells like Waluigi's feet that is.

And those levels have a tendency to come directly after the previously worst level too (See World 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, and 2-5 which got consecutively worse and worse).

But let's start where we left off, after my 2 hour oddyssey in the Enigmansion...

So basically after I've finally finished that bitch off, I have taken advantage of some user's advice and went back to 4-1 to get the secret exit there.

After running through half of those snowball throwing enemies again, I reach a previously undiscovered room.

Mfw...

zlCfzSjeSMgkakAj9Z


The most random thing ever happens and Birdo has a 20 second guest appearence.

(Which is somehow reminiscnt of the weird problem Nintendo has with her (his?) gender by the way).

It's also completely out of context.

You go into this completely empty room.

There is a tree

Hit the tree with your hammer.

Suddenly Birdo appears and gives you A GOAT.

Oh well I've honestly stopped giving fucks about the randomness in this game by now, sooooooo let's just move on.

After a series of completely uneventful things happening I finish level 4-1 with the secret exit and World 4-5 opens.

I've also checked out 4-4 which is just a shop for all kinds of shiny pokémon Stickers, so I'll just leave that out.

World 4-5.

WORLD 4-5.

This level actually rivals The Enigmansion in its crappyness.

I haven't yet fully decided if this or the Enigmansion is worse, but I think it's at least on par, even if the Enigmansion still stands on top of it all.

Still, this level is it's own definition of "crap".

https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKEwUkUbTQ

I mean seriously all crappy levels in this game had save points near the beginning. They must've known that they've fucked up.

Like fucked up badly.

Anyways, this level consists of one thing.

A Ski Lift.

Yes.

TALK ABOUT RANDOMNESS.

BECAUSE THERE AIN'T EVEN SKIIS

THERE AIN'T SHIT

IT'S JUST ONE PLUMBER, ONE SKI LIFT

AND

A

TON

OF

FUZZIES (, ice bros., paragoombas, etc.)

REGDFEJHTRERNETRGWMZRM&UNZR

Sorry that was me violently punching around on the keyboard.

Basically, this level has 10000 forced battles against fuzzies and shiny paragoombas, with the occasional ice bros. in the background freezing you, and imminent death always on the horizon.

I mean I barely made it because I was running low both on health and on Stickers, but I've somehow made it through this HELL.

I mean who at Intelligent Systems thought this was funny?

I mean if this was optional like the pit of 100 trials in TTYD and SPM or something it would've been kind of "OK", but THIS IS JUST SHIT.

Also

zlCfzSjeknggpt3RjI


Luigi couldn't be fucked to take the lift so he just went back down by default. Oh deer...

Anyways, after I had done that I went back to all the shops to violently restock per request from the chat.

Also I had to end the session there bc I wanted to watch TV. Oh well, but I continued alone later in the evening nonetheless.

Enter 4-6, the last level of the World:

zlCfzSjerwQYR3h5NE


oooh dam there's gotta be something nice in there for all the Shy Guys to be waiting in line to get in there!

zlCfzSjetdAZn5WBqh


This waiting line reminds me of the gamescom a bit...

Jokes aside, there are two way to tackle this waiting queue.

Either you battle every. single. Shy Guy., which would take like 30 minutes-esque...?

OR, you buy a door from 3-6 and use it to take the VIP line (, bitch), which I totally did by the way.

After that comes a minecart minigame, which somehow reminded me of the Minecart Level in Super Mario RPG, only with better music (it was a remake of the SM64 slide theme).

So yeah, I rather liked that part actually (it was a little tedious but I've seen worse minecart rides).

After that came the boss already actually, to which I had been adviced to bring a lot of Fire Flowers which I did.

Basically it's one of those huge Bowser Snow Statues from SMG2 with 400 HP, weakness on every fire sticker.

zlCfzSjgReIV1qcMiS


Verdict: Easy.

After I had beaten him there was suddenly a story (like really, except for in the Enigmansion this chapter has has ABSOLUTELY NO SUB-STORY, which is sad, really. (i mean chapter 3 at least tried to have a sub-plot going with WIGGLER JESUS AND THE FORECOMING OF THE APOCALYPSE), and I made this unconnected miiverse post:

https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKEwWZCPWw

Oh well. This was by far the shortest world so far (not counting the Enigmansion, ugh.), with only that one really long level, one that didnt count, 2 normal and two short ones.

Progress: https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYQHAAABAACNUKEwWSiB2g

NEXT TIME: 4-3 sucked, 4-5 sucked... I hope World 5 doesn't suck that much...?

Okay fuck it it's probably going to be the hell on 4 legs.
 
Re: Freakworld plays Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Status: I'M BACK)

hoooo boy you'll enjoy long fall falls i'm sure
 
Re: Freakworld plays Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Status: I'M BACK)

If you thought Chapter 4-3, aka the best level in the game sucked, then you're in for a treat for World 5. Especially 5-3.

If you like searching around randomly without any sort of hint in a fucking huge mansion and that the level stretches for all eternity, sure.
 
Re: Freakworld plays Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Status: I'M BACK)

Because the level really didn't need many hints tbh, you just search for boo's. Rooms have puzzles, puzzles involve the game mechanics, use them and complete the puzzles.
 
Re: Freakworld plays Paper Mario: Sticker Star (Status: I'M BACK)

Well that's why I auto assumed there was only one boo per room.

Not like in the room with the boo stack where there also was one in the the fucking clock.

And no I was not there to clean their clock.
