Thane Gaming | Dark Aspects of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door (Part 3: Twilight Town & Vivian) - Thane Gaming @ThaneGaming | Uploaded July 2024 | Updated October 2024, 10 minutes ago.
A remake of my Dark Aspects of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door analysis for GameCube, now covering the remake on Switch! In this episode, it's all about the dour chapter 4 and a pair of shadowy characters adding intrigue to the main plot. Doo_liss the shapeshifting Duplighost has stolen Mario's identity, and Vivian (a former enemy) teams up with our hero to stop him. I do discuss the latter character's gender identity after careful research on the matter, and report on whether it was always the intention of the writers for her to be a trans woman.
