Who else reckons Colour Splash looks pretty?

They're not "muted", they're pastel. Gives a more "natural" feel over bright colours, which look more cartoony. Note that this isn't equivalent to the "mature" grey-and-brown idiocy of last generation.

Why the hell would you go for a "natural" feel in a Paper MARIO game?  It's paper.  it's Mario.  It's about freaking COLORS.  It should be absolutely bursting with color.

This is the problem with a lot of people - they spend all of their time judging a game based on what they think it "should" be, they forget to judge it for what it actually is.

They want it to look like real dioramas. Real dioramas aren't going to be coloured with everything in ultra-fluoro colours. It looks more "real" than any previous Paper Mario title. And that's great. It also makes the characters, who *are* brightly-coloured, stand out further.
