…of the stupidest game task of all time.
I started playing Super Paper Mario the other day; it's a whole lot of fun and pretty funny too. So far so good right? Well, sort of. It was all good until I get to the second chapter and I break this chick's vase (it was on top of a question mark block…what was I supposed to do?). So the thing breaks into two even halves, a clean break. Instead of letting me apologize and just put it back together with some Gorilla Glue, she decided to declare me her slave and make me work off the cost of her precious vase — 1,000,000 "Rubees". ONE MILLION! In order to work off this sum I have to jump up and down hitting a block, which gives me one or two Rubees per hit. I find out there's a VIP prisoner room to make a lot more Rubees for your work but you need the access code. So I get the access code from a dude for 100 Rubees and then get into the VIP room. I now have to run in a hamster wheel (read: hold right) to make Rubees. I run in this hamster wheel (hold right) for about 10 minutes and only make like 30,000 Rubees. To get to 1 million is going to take way too freaking long. WTF Nintendo? I love your game so far, but why a million? I better get something totally sweet for holding right for that long. I'm just gonna get a rubber band and let it go for a while. At least the longer you go before cashing out your work, the more Rubees you make. But seriously, that's a lame task.
