Just reached it myself, and I've been enjoying myself so far. I have to say that I'm not entirely fond of how convenient backtracking is, since upon learning the UFO move I went back to every other island to see if I could get anything. The answer's no, there's nothing there, at least not yet.
I will also present my current crackpot theory about the plot; Snoutlet caused Concordia to split apart. I have no evidence, but it's weird that he was one of two residents of the unitree island, and that he's so far unique and unlike any of the... whatever the Concordians are called. To be clear, I don't think he's the secret bad guy, I just think he caused it to split apart. (Snoutlet's a boy, right? I don't actually know)
Read Otr of the Flame (She/Her)so far i've finished the first two seas, and the most recent island i have finished was Heatfreeze. currently landed on Skorcheen.

I gotta say, Brothership's soundtrack is actually fairly decent, even if not as good as previous games. I think the battle theme is on par with previous battle themes. Also really like the prominent use of accordians throughout the soundtrack.
By the way, I only made this a Brothership specific thread because I wasn't sure if Mario and Luigi had its own thread. Does it?

Once Upon A Time.I've see a bunch of ramps leading up to walls on Allsand Island (and possibly others), but don't know how to go up them. Is this ability unlocked much later? Cleared a few more islands after that but no means of using those ramps, which lead to a bunch of stuff on that island. Just cleared Bulbfish island, for reference.
ASAB: All Sponsors Are Bad.Why does Slippenglide Island's name sound like a brand of lube?
I wish there were more Bros Attacks. I don't see why there are only 10, without a third set of bros attacks that balance it out like in the last two games. I don't like how Bros. Attacks are just something you recieve at set points in the story and so far apart.

Once Upon A Time.There's always 10.
This game uses aspects from every game, learning Bros. Attacks at specific points of the story is essentially how Superstar Saga does it (even if the game doesn't really tell you)
Not having a 3rd playable character, a 3rd party member, or a separate world where Mario's on his own...
There isn't much of a point to focus on creating more for "balance" reasons, I just wish they were all original,
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Bowser's Inside Story, Dream Team, and Paper Jam only had more than 10 Bros Moves solely because of their "third wheel/playable character" gimmicks (Bowser, Dreamy Luigi, Paper Mario). Brothership doesn't have a "third wheel/playable character" gimmick like those games so it’s unfair to compare them.
Without those three games' "third wheel/playable character" gimmicks, when it's just standard Mario and Luigi like how it is in Brothership, those three games (BiS, DT, and PJ) only have 10 Bros Moves just like Brothership.
Partners In Time only had 10 Bros Moves in general as well.

I'm at the end of the Brrrning Seas arc, more specifically the part where you have the choice between obviously ruining the couple's wedding (or maybe it turns out well in the end anyway) or doing the obviously correct choice. I made a second save just in case I want to see both outcomes.
Once Upon A Time.It does...change the aesthetics of the things you collect, so there's that.

Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Ok I'm at the fourth sea and man it really took them this long after showing Bowser in the intro but damn does he make quite the entrance.
The part where Mario and Luigi have apparently beaten almost 100 million of Bowser's minions got a good laugh out of me. Especially that they keep an exact amount.

Should the fights be in reverse order...ya think?
Or such a thing?

I especially love how it's basically just confirmation that Mario and Luigi DON'T "kill" Goombas, Koopas, etc. or "commit genocide" like some unironically believe. They just beat them up like Batman does against many criminals and goons.

Same, I've been budgeting lately. It looks good but I already have a game backlog and would rather spend my money elsewhere.
The game looks over-animated like Zenless Zone Zero. Granted, I'd rather have expressive animation than some that just get the point across (a complaint of previous Mario games).
Over animated...compared to the rest of the series?
Which is known for its really expressive sprite work...

Talk about Mario & Luigi: Brothership here. Game is a blast thus far in my opinion.
