This is easily the most difficult Paper Mario TTYD Challenge I have ever done. I expected to lose many times throughout this playthrough, but pushed through and ended up having many successful battles. Come join me in beating the hardest Paper Mario difficulty mod that I have ever seen: Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door Insane Mode.

Hey, so I may have made an oopsie. I should have added the pit of 100 trials to the end of this video. I was going to make it its own separate video, but I have realized that I cannot turn just the pit into a good video, and I don't want to give y'all half baked content. Just know it involved a lot of Yoshi Stampedes. Don't worry though, you will see the pit in future videos. Thank you for understanding. I hope you enjoyed the video!!! And hey, if you read this far, please consider subscribing. I'll be posting more challenge videos like this, and hitting 1k subscribers would be a dream of mine completed. Anyway. See you later! ALSO. THE SONG AT 41:04 IS "moonstruck blossom"
@IlllIllIIlIlIIll- tis true. seeing as this is my first vid, i'm still trying to find my groove of things, and also just get more efficient at editing. this one took me about a month of recording, editing, and scripting, so i'm just gonna see how things start to go.
You could also consider just making a short out of the Bonetail fight 🤔
@@1umbreon4life I thought about it, but i don't really do anything different than any other fights, so I don't think there is any reason to. It's just a learning experience
RELEASE THE FOOTAGE KRONK
I can’t wait!
literally every ttyd hard mode video: - increase hp/atk/def to the point where it becomes unfair - superguarding
Gale force chance is based on level difference, since the Dark Koopatrol was a much higher level than you, that means you got really lucky.
Yeah. I was at 1hp and was scared for my life haha. Incredibly lucky
i love how throughout the video, you act like it's a players first time playing the game, that damn ghost's ace
fun fact, you can get ms. mowz pre-chapter five, right before turning in the crystal star from chapter four *eh heh, defense piercing partner the audiences hates... i am not going to stop sequence breaking to get you early*
considering ive only played the new paper Mario games (sticker star onwards) and I'm trying to understand why TTYD players hate new paper Mario so vehemently and tout this game as the best one (and i will say this is a very good game!), it actually is my first time seeing the game explained so in depth, seeing playthroughs is cool but i do also like challenge runs of stuff in general
@@myhlosic hey, i don't blame you. Challenge runs and mods have keep the game alive (besides Nintendo's remake) yeah, basically you either love the later games or the earlier games, it's hard to enjoy both considering the contrast in gameplay (i have played paper mario, ttyd, super, and color splash, once your used to the first two battle systems, the others look a bit boring yet hey, it still unique)
“There is one more fight we have to do before chapter 6.” *Shows Whacka Me: I swear, you better not-
I purposely don't bonk the little guy. I could never bring myself to.
@@AstronOtter This is the correct answer
This is why I love combat systems like these because you can build in your own challenge while the combat can adapt to any change you give it. It's why I continue to challenge run this game after so many years. It's a yearly tradition of mine.
There's just so many ways to artificially make the game harder. It's great
Its funny how people wanting to throw hearts to heal you can be your enemy if you're doing Danger/Peril strats because that lil heal can potentially take your buffs away, and the game actually let's you prevent them from doing that
Every TTYD video I see, I feel the need to tell everyone... Smorg boss has the best music in the game, criminally underrated. Aside from you excluding that music, excellent video.
Smorg for life
Nice video! Nice to see my beginner badge tier list getting some use LOL
Haha yeah. Felt like it was the best example of pretty lucky being pretty eh
24:35 Best Badge in the entire Game. If they won´t let us play as MR. L then this is the only thing we get to be close to MR. L
The tutorial boss part transforms into a counterstrike minigame. Like, you have 10 points of health, and either you miss 10 times or repel 10 attacks. Pretty fair and challenging.
The self censoring on saying Doopliss had me cackling! First vid of yours I've seen, but damn what a good first one. Keep it up man!!
Well that'd probably be cuz it's my first video haha, but more are on the way
No way! You sir have an act for it then! This video made it seem like you've been doing it for awhile lol
Great video! Loved the editing, and having my first introduction to Paper Mario TTYD!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Never thought about increasing the difficulty that way! Really loving this, keep em coming!
I love it how you use the music perfectly,specific in the final battle,so fitting
This is a great video! Love the editing, music choice, and funny quips. Hope you can keep making cool videos
Man the best yoshi player and the first yoshi that won in the turnament amsa is relly the best yoshi player
He's truly an inspiration.
...and reach the final boss of the game. *Music starts playing* This is Giratina, a...
its a great run and nice editing keep going !
Just started the video but I love this idea, great presentation as well. Subscribed and I hope to see more PM vids from you!
I have many ideas for challenges to do, so you'll definitely see more from me haha. Thank you for the praise!
I loved the Bowser chapter. It got my heart pumping fast!
Great video man. Keep it up 👍
Loved the editing in this video! Really breathes life into the run, keeps it engaging, and helps add some good humor too. Really enjoyed the background music choice as well 🤌🏽
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you for the kind words!
your music choices are dope too. i found another gem thanks yt algo
This very much was a very entertaining challenge to watch! Thank you ^^
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing video i love stuff like this!
first real video and it's, ridiculously good. love it 👍
Great video man!
This was a great way to watch a play through. I love the restriction and the commentary. I would love to see videos with different restrictions, i dont know really what? But theres just a lot of the same i find in ttyd content. I wanna see strange badge combos and stuff
I'm currently working through some as we speak
I need as much of this content as u can produce. Thanks
I will try to provide. I've got some stuff in the works, but I'm still working on becoming consistent haha. I don't plan on stopping tho
@@AstronOtter that's what you like to hear
The best video on Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, thanks editor and person speaking in the video! Fabulous job, really.
I am both haha. Thank you for the high praise!
Your voice is so cute and calming and wholesome. Thoroughly enjoyed. Very nice video 🎉
yay! i've been subscribed for a while and now aftee shorts, a full video!! wooo
And there's more where this one came from. There will be soon
22:44 The ch 6 intro with the DS music was funny how you used the words to match the beat of the song.😂 Also the like and subscribe was great how you managed to add that in to the video for comedy.
AMSA!! Melee fan spotted you got my sub
Ur really underrated! Keep up the great work!!
Thank you!!
I would've loved for Grubba to get interrupted in the middle of him attempting to power up using the Crystal Star by someone important (don't know who) and convinced to instead do this fight in front of the crowd in the form of a bonus match. It would've been cool to have the crowd be there.
Also, the clever video editing out of Doopliss's name every time you said it before the name was revealed in the game cracked me up.
Paper-Thin Pain: The Thousand-Fold Pain. Pain, Pain, The Pain-Pain-Pain. Pe-Pain, Pe-Pain... Pain.
Amazing choice of music for the video! Kudos editor 🎉
Thank you! (I am the editor)
@@AstronOtter LOL! keep doing these kind of content! It’s so good that I thought i was watching a video from a guy with 1m+ subs!!
@@davidsicouret2636 Thank you so much for the compliment. Working on my next one right now. Got busy with life, but more is to come for sure
Idk anything abt paper Mario but this is goated asf
Ok so basically, Mario is in it and is the main character
Love this guy
3:32 the fact you made a reference to a shiny pokemon is pretty funny! 🤣 I’m a bit nervous to play the remastered version of the game before the first time. I have heard good things about the game but the counter attack looks super tough to perform….
37:35 you also got the dodge from Lucky
Nice video, I’ll sub.
Little tip for Bowser: try to get enough exp to level up after killing Grodus so that you heal.
Yeah haha. I wasnt worried going into it because I could just full heal turn 1. I don't think leveling between fights would have changed much
This was a great video. You definitely deserve more views and subs! Also, I'd like to contend that an arguably harder Paper Mario difficulty mod is the Dark Star Edition, though it's for '64 and not TTYD. Still, I recommend giving it a try! It'd be awesome to see a video on it as well!
I'm not nearly as adept at 64. I've actually never even beat it fully haha. I plan on getting around to it tho.
@@AstronOtter Oh gosh, you gotta get on it then! I'd argue that it (the base game at least) is slightly easier than TTYD for a variety of reasons. Inns and recovery blocks are free, partners don't have HP and are rarely attacked by enemies, that sort of thing.
when he said "Macho grubba" I thought the sound in the background was megalo strike back's intro skullEmoji
I feel that with the game being harder defensive partners like Flurrie would be seen as stronger. It seems that she helped a ton here but yoshi and Goombella seem to be the best as normal lol.
Flurries was definitely helpful before some of the other could scale up. Im thinking of doing a challenge where enemies have infinite defense, but idk if that would actually be fun haha
In america, you step on goombas. In russia, goomba steps on you.
great video! :D
Thank you!!
13:53 (insert comedic "donk" sound effect)
when i saw the dark koopas from PM64 when i played Ch.3 of PMTTYD for the first time i had PTSD cause no matter what i always fudging died to them cause they always knocked my partner to be able do anything then gave me the Dizzy Status so i couldnt move then i die from being attacked nonstop back in PM64 So when i found out they didnt do their dizziness-causing attack anymore i was relived ALSO I died what i heard the Champion Cynthia battle theme (funny cause i listen to that alot when making my PMTTYD AU)
I feel like the built in need to buy so many fire flowers in the early game is my only hang-up
Technically you don't have to, especially in the actual game. They give you the perfect amount you need to deal with every situation as long as you don't use them for unnecessary fights. I had to buy more because obviously I need 2 for every 1 I would need in the base game
Space Oshawott is sooooo precious!!! 😍
Thanks! I'm very proud of him haha
For the hardest attack to super guard in the game, there's none harder than the cannon attack from Magnus Von Grapple 2.0. It's nearly impossible to guard against all 10 hits.
Honestly fair. I always forget about it until it's shooting me in the face for 30 damage
I really like your storytelling, extremely solid for your first video. Can’t wait to see where you go from here.
Tysn!!!!
Yo, I love me some point swap strats. Super underrated strategy
True! I honestly had forgotten about it until recording this and just happened to see it in the shop. I felt like it deserved some of the spotlight again
The Blooper can go back up to the ceiling?! I never knew it could do that!
Amsa mentioned!!!! Amsa mentioned!!
Well done video my friend! Was tuned in the whole time. Unfortunately at 38:12 you invalidated the run by having to buy the required badge to finish the gameplay 😉 good stuff keep it up
Haha yeah. I just can't play without becoming waluigi. He's just the best one. Kinda hoped someone would eventually notice haha
Respect for naming red Yoshi Amsa.
You just reached 700 subs 🎉🎉🎉
Idk if I was the 700th sub or the 699th sub
Doesn't matter, all that matters is that I subbed 🎉🎉🎉🎉
It's at 701 now 🎉
Wow 780!
19:14 Cortez having 120HP makes sense though. As you say, 3 phases each of which is 20hp. Total is 60, so new total is 120, with each phase lasting 40hp.
Yeah, but each phase ends after the full 120 health bar goes away, so he actually ended up having 360 total instead of 120 total
5:57 BY FAR THE BEST BATTLE THEME IN THE GAME
Glorious. (:
Hehe. I already knew the flurrie thing. But I like how you didn't and instead used a more interesting strategy.
I also like the oshawott pfp. Oshawott is one of the best water starters imo. Just wish I had both pokepark games so that I can experience their beauty. And... *_THE WAY OF THE WOTT!_*
One can make the vanilla game tougher by going for a different build rather than say balanced which just makes it easy.
Oh trust me. That's what future videos will do, just wanted to see what this would be like to do
Fun fact: Bowser and Kammy both have a 5% chance to be affected by Showstopper's KO effect. Not great odds, but also not zero odds. Also, I wonder if the reason why you set Cortez's HP to 120 instead of 40 in each phase is because you put the double of his total HP, not each phase's HP.
Yeah that's 100% what happened. I don't exactly know why a similar thing happened to rawk hawk as well since he doesn't have phases, but it was interesting. I was definitely not expecting that to happen.
@@AstronOtter Yeah I can't think of any reason why Rawk Hawk's HP was set to 100 except for maybe you thought it was 50 instead of 40 in the base game, but you probably would have caught that mistake while entering the new HP.
@@naturecomics well his tattle says 40, and in an unchanged version I'm playing RN it's 40. I didn't make the code to mess with the health, so it could've just been the person misentering the hp
I remember doing this mode without peril or danger strats as an added challenge... Fun times...
Yeah. Could've done that, but I decided that there wasn't really a point and it would just make it take longer haha
21:29 what uh- whatcha doing there? Saying hello to everyone's sweet favorite boy? Nothing nefarious I hope...
I would never. Accidentally found out in another playthrough that I'm recording that you can jump on him. It hurt my soul
@@AstronOtter devastating. Never jump on him again!
I don't plan on it.@@fortello7219
21:53 i mean you’re not wrong
I got click baited thinking it was the new game :/ got excited for a sec
Aww sorry. I'm really excited too
If you think a video is of the new game, it probably won't be until a month from now
i subbed for naming yoshi amsa
Pov music starts in chapter 4 and he says something: My brain: HE’S GONNA RAP
He should rap tho-
Gave this video a like just for the Yoshi name
If your doing it on emulator, there should be a few codes that allow you to alter the odds of things happening. Allowing stage hazards and enemys using (not dropping) items to happen more often. This could be interesting in the sense you can make all fights more chaotic
24:47 i learned from another ttyf youtuber that showstopper has a 5% chance to 1shoy the final bowser+kameo fight
If you look at it very closely, at 7:46 into 7:47, Mario takes 4 damage from Earthquake. There is a brief moment, barely a frame or two, where Mario's health drops to 14, then instantly goes back to 15 despite the clip being taken in whole. It might be fake, but if Astronotter made this mod, what would be the motive? What's going on here? EDIT: I see this occur several other times during the video, and now I realize that it is played simply for demonstrative purposes. Sorry!
Haha. I need to be more clear in the future. I actually just lost the footage after recording my voiceover and went back to do it while getting some examples footage of some attacks and had a thing that made Mario's health always go back up after taking damage for ease of recording all the extra stuff. My entire playthrough was legit, just some of the recordings after I finished were "cheated"
Ohhh. I thought it was being played for demonstrative purposes. Thanks for clarification!
Same when fighting Rawk Hawk at 11:57
There is a better code for double enemy HP. The one you use doubles the total HP of bosses instead of the amount of HP for each phase. It also gives Rawk Hawk 100 HP instead of 80 for some reason and gives the Shadow Queen's hands the HP of Shadow Queen herself instead of double the hands' HP. The code below fixes these issues. Disable the one you currently have and use this instead.

I honestly forgot that the hands didn't have the same HP as the Queen. I probably won't do this challenge again because it was really really hard, but this is good to know for the future.
One of the text a the end should be "fight with determination"
paper mario peak
100%. One of the few games I can consistently say is my favorite.
I believe the health was duping the whole bosses health instead of just that phase
Yeah. I didn't know it was gonna do that. Was expecting a much easier cortez fight haha
underrated youtuber
That means a lot
I'm a simple person. They said like and subscribe and I did the thing.
I guess the hp developers are aliens 😅
Pokemon mystery dungeon music gets a sub 👏
wanna play this game again now aha
Lore of Paper Mario TTYD just got WAY HARDER! Momentum 100
Hard? Sounds more like Sisyphus mode to me
You can just get rid of Cortez’s weapons with Flurry’s Gale Force
you'll never guess what happens next
@@AstronOtter Yeah, I just didn’t think you knew.
Nice vudeo i have a quzdtion how many hours do you beat the game with hard mod
I think around 25? I honestly don't remember
showstopper has 5% for bowser/kamek in chapter 8
I actually didn't know that. Apparently it's also a chance on gloomtail
D's new name is dave
664th subscriber! ❤
5/23/2024
Fun fact: Bowser and Kammy are actually susceptible to Showstopper, believe it or not. So if you're lucky, you can basically skip that fight entirely.
It's a 5% chance I believe.
Gloomtail too, all have a 5% susceptibility to it.
0:05 I fail to see how this is exagerated, power rush is an existing badge.
Yeah. It's just not a damage number I generally get to because it's unnecessary
38:15 Waluigi badge? I don't remmeber this one. (Probably wario badge with luigi badge combined, but I also don't remember Wario badge)
You buy the wario badge from charlieton in rogueport square. He has like 10ish items that he can sell, but only 4 at a time, so you have to leave and come back every now and then. It costs like 360 coins to get, but yeah, wario + Luigi = waluigi
How does this game keep its E rating?
4:51 FEET
im going to screech i need the playlist for the music in this video
If you look on my channel page, I've been collecting songs that I plan on using in videos. It's not specifically only the ones in the video, but I'm actually adding to it as we speak haha
@@AstronOtter ohhh mb im pretty new to your channel but thanks 👍
@@celestia7855 don't worry. Everyone is haha. I'm pretty new myself.
