I'm seeing at least 2 references on this page to Paper Jam being easier than Dream Team. Could someone explain to me why Paper Jam is considered easier? Yeah they give you a lot of OPTIONAL crutch tools, but they're OPTIONAL. To me it's like saying Monkey Island 2 is easier than Monkey Island 1 because 2 included an optional super-easy mode.
As for why I think Paper Jam is harder, well...it's taking me a LOT of effort to get even normal enemy patterns down, and bosses are even HARDER to evade and seem to not have any requirement to give a crap about your defense stat, each one that I've faced so far has moves that absolutely WRECK and are easier to let hit you than one might think. Especially the first battle with Wendy and Roy, I think you're supposed to take out Wendy first because Roy busted out a ridiculously huge magic spell that was basically a 1 hit KO if it hit and there didn't seem to be any real tell as to who it was going to hit so I had to just press and hold and release all three buttons at once.
Okay, tangent aside, why exactly is this game EASIER?
If King Boo was a Complete Monster in Dark Moon, why doesn't that carry over into his appearance in this game?
I got my political views from reddit and that's bad
