While the act of running around and stealing everything in sight is pretty fun, the thing that kept me coming back to this was the strange stories that you get by completing the crew's fetch quests. The one involving movie night is one of my favorites.
If you're listening to Vinny talk about the Hero with a Thousand Faces and are looking for a little more info on that, check out these videos from Extra Credits:
Having nearly finished it, I completely agree with Dan on the combat, it's the worst part. But, the rest of the game is pretty great and the whole Toad thing didn't bother me at all, probably because the writing is so damn good in this game. Has a great sense of humor about it.
Is it a good Paper Mario game? No, not really. If you are looking for that, go play The Thousand Year Door. Is it a bad game? Not at all. It's a good game, not bad, but not great.
These QL's are always the best. Still not sure if Dan was being genuine in the beginning with all of his football questions or not. Would like to think he was at least trying to learn something.
