Cappy is a fucking bro

Who careswise: Luma

...

Literally who

>voting for fludd

kys

That's just a Green Mario, user. You can't fool me.

FLUDD and Cappy are fun and cute.

Bowser

Cappy can help kill enemies around you, extremly useful for platforming, and can capture enemies and use thier power for your advantage.

Fludd is extremely helpful for platforming, cleaning Bowser Jr's graffiti.. and stunning enemies I guess.

Luma.... what the fuck does she do? I never played Galaxy or the sequel.

Just hides in your hat which gives Mario the "spin" ability. That's literally it. doesn't talk or anything.

All Luma does is give you the waggle ability

Was Luma really much of a companion compared to the other 2? Only thing he did was stay inside Mario's head throughout the whole game without ever saying a word, just giving him the ability to spin. Rosie and Lubba were the actual companions of the Galaxy games

>Space Peach and Patrick Star were companions
>both did fucking nothing while Mario did everything

The more I think about it, the more it seems like Galaxy was a bad game.

>A childish chibi star that makes you do a pussy spin for losers who always fuck up their jumps. Slows down your momentum and makes platforming slow paced. You often forget it even exists.
>A water jetpack that's a massive crutch and ruins platforming with its slow as fuck hover nozzle that replaced the long jump.
>A badass, charming hat with actual personality. Grants you godlike powers like taking control of a T-Rex and Bowser. Let's you do awesome fast-paced acrobatic shit and is super versatile

No fucking contest.

Kappy obviously

Fludd is a tool and Luma doesn't say anything

I was always happy loosing Fludd because the levels got better and I got to do some more fun platforming
Luma barely registered as a companion and I almost forget the fucker was with me.

Kappy wins this hands down.

>Lakitu helps Mario see to begin with
>follows Mario to the ends of the mushroom kingdom
>broadcasts it to the world just because

Lakitu wins no contest

If lakitu isn't there then mario can still see.
All Lakitu is doing is filming it for his perverse pleasure

Also he could've easily carried you at some points to stars but he didn't.

>mario could still see without him
Not from a gameplay perspective.

He could in other games.

Cappy is a bro

Cappy is cool but FLUDD is the original nigga

It's because Miyamoto didn't want Lakitu to overshadow Mario's newer partners in every game.

He's still there. Note the lack of a proper mirror in any of the 3D Mario games starting with Sunshine.

That is crazy headcannon to assume mario is blind without lakitu

Cappy has a personality. FLUDD feels like an emotionless robot, which I suppose he is. Luma was just cute.

It's batshit crazy headcanon. I will not deny that.

But it's even crazier that you can't refute this.

I can. He could see before and after in games

And even before you "collect" lakitu in 64 you can control the camera and see.

But user, Lakitu flies behind mario the second he comes out of the pipe. That was the whole point of the opening scene at the castle. He's simply addressing himself to Mario when he reaches the bridge.

Lakitu is by far the best companion.

>But user, Lakitu flies behind mario the second he comes out of the pipe.
Not true. He is waiting in front of the door.
I can open 64 right now and check it.

What if Lakitu was actually a villain, showing Bowser where Mario was at all times.

>Still no good porn of Cappy

He flies down when he reaches the bridge. He's not waiting there.

You're wrong. Go check

But user, whose filming Lakitu when we see him?

I checked. He is standing in front of the door.

Fludd because of the more momentum-based options it gave you.

>paper mario games are all stories/playwrites

Nigga, who do you think wrote them all after witnessing Mario's adventures firsthand?

>people unironically voting for cappy

Oh boy, I can't wait to do the same exact hat throw jump combo a million times. Maybe if I throw the hat ontop of an enemy I can do something actually interesting while I complete my 150000 fetch quests with exhilarating goals like

>Throw my hat on a bird
And
>Throw my hat on a cactus

>Meanwhile in food land I'm alternative between bad ass nozels and making the world a better place by actually affecting the levels with my actions.

>There were two Lakitus the entire time
It all makes sense now

I wish everyone else who posted that put a spoiler tag on it.

>Still no good porn of FLUDD
