That's never changed.

>Starlow solely exists past BIS to bully Luigi
Gggreat...

Projecting side character

loyal to pliskin
speaking of which, what happened to him? He disappeared halfway through MGS2 and Kojima never brought it up. A figment of Raiden’s imagination or VR or something?

Context?

Everyone just shitted on him during the 2000s huh?

>she makes fun of him in BiS
“haha, okay okay you can calm down Starlow”
>abuses him in DT
“alright you can knock it off.”
>straight up tells him to kill himself in PJ
“Enough.”

>tfw no new Mario and Luigi ever

But they still do, he's always being tortured.

>The only ones not humiliating Luigi was NLG

Some nip at Nintendo headquarters just hated him for no apparent reason

in Mario and Luigi Partners in Time, they need to get past the Star Gate late in the game.
It only lets past those who are worthy and pure I believe? It’s been awhile
Anyway it lets Mario in, recognizing his achievements. It lets the babies in for their innocence.
Then it gets to Luigi.

What follows is a 5 minute fucking roast of this random star gate refusing to let him in and telling him he’s fucking worthless and why does he exist what’s his purpose he should just basically quit now and stop before he fucks it up for everyone. It was a really long scene I recently remember Luigi crying and shit.
It was really OOC and random as shit, came out of nowhere and it started the whol bullying Luigi shit that happens with Starlow in later games.

It’s also a really annoying excuse to make the player go through a dungeon just to “prove your worth” to this dumb gate. A major low point for PiT

>they ditch him in the first game
>they decide to give him his own misadventure along the side
>despite the game having segments where you play as other characters on their own quest like Peach and Bowser they don't let you play as Luigi
>they give him his own partners but most of them hate him

>Mario goes into Luigi’s dreams in DT
>expecting some edgy “nobody loves me” shit
>get hit with tons of thoughts by Luigi saying “I love my big bro!” “I hope I don’t let him down…” “He’s the best!”
Damn it, I had the feels

>>straight up tells him to kill himself in PJ
This can't be real

That's at least consistent with everything else; for all the entire universe shitting on Luigi across all games for the sake of comic relief, Mario will always love him, even if it's just them against the universe.

man the animation in LM3 is truly top notch

Gay

>the sequel is prophesied
>no, the creation of the world ending device doesn’t matter that was planned and will get resolved
>the heroes and villains all finding each other and fighting it out doesn’t matter, that was in the prophecy
>the only thing that isn’t in the prophecy is what side luigi takes
>implies that luigi has so much pent up negative emotions that should he have chosen the universe would collapse

>>they give him his own partners but most of them hate him
Well to be fair Luigi is sort of a dick there apparently.
It was a weird moment for him

>A major low point for PiT
To be fair the whole game is a low point in general

It's still better than how they treat a certain other shy sibling that lives in the shadows.

I’m exaggerating obviously, but it’s not far from the truth
