Reviews

Genuine critique from standard to easy	keatto	2024-02-02	Version 0.2
I genuinely critiqued the original and pointed out the endless grind and flaws in it, and my review was dropped. This is a bit better. You can reach the initial save point without xp-less battle grind, respects your time a bit more. Its still a lot of repetition, the antithesis of what made the new remake on switch such a short-lived banger. You'll see various new bosses, with new timed hit mechanics. Are they busted? Yeah, but if your still too casual you can savescum or yt em

Necessary for some	Nintenja	2024-01-31	Version 0.2
I have played Mario Rpg Armageddon v5.0 to finish. I enjoyed the changes made but had no Desire to return to what many consider the definite 16 bit Mario Rpg. While I don't consider it the definitive Mario Rpg I appreciate it for the changes it did and quality. This patch makes the barrier of entry much easier for those who want a more causal experience. If you're one of the people who play games mostly for story and characters this is for you. Everything seems to work ad described and I'll update my review if I run into an issue though I foresee no issues here. Good hack worth adding to your collection as alternate version of Mario Rpg Amageddon.
