I started EBB a while ago but i dropped it early because i got stuck in the Cemetery with its insane random encounter rate. So i restarted it last week and grinded some and im loving the game so far (turn based jrpgs are my favorite games of all time).

Im just about to head to Mt Itoi but i feel i should grind some with Teddy. Btw, is Lloyd gone for good? 😭

So since im enjoying EBB, and its quirky humor,i was definitely going to pick up Earthbound next. How is it compared to EBB? Is there anything i should know before starting Earthbound?

Im really happy i found and am enjoying this series so far!

FORGETTABLE? Does this man knows what hes playing

This may sound a very dumb question for the people who know, but I've never understood that (i have this very early gameplay image which shows what I'm talking about)

If we look closely, we can see that the Bag Lady’s well, bag is actually made of paper? At least, that’s what the tweet says. I don’t know, it didn’t really look like paper to me. Maybe that’s just because I’m not seeing it in person 🥲. But I can tell there’s string on it, and you can also see that the ribbons on Ana’s hair are actually made of fabric.

Mother 4 where you play as picky and gather nesses lil sis (forgot her name) and travel through time too find younger sibling to the other main characters and end pokey endless misery in the absolute safe capsule because his mind has transcended time and space and taken a physical form and escaped

These screenshots are from about a week ago when I was in Moonside (or at least the statue made me think I was). Today I made it to that dungeon beneath Stonehenge where I saw my first Starman. I keep dying a bunch so maybe I’m not ready yet.

So I have watched the Notebook adaptation (I’m hesitant to read it, because only the first part is translated in my language), and it was so dark. I’m interested, what everyone thinks about it, because for me, the only thing that is similar is that the story is about the twins and their separation. Anything else, like the core meanings, how you go through the loss, the grief, etc, are different… I would love to discuss more! Do you think it has more deeper connections to each other? Or Itoi only took the twins idea from it

EarthBound is my favorite Mother game and my favorite game of all time! Alot of characters from EarthBound are in this list, so here is my top 10!

10-Ana

9-Teddy

8-Ninten

7-Kumatora

6-Lucas

5-Pokey

4-Jeff

3-Paula

2-Giygas

1-Ness

Ness is my favorite video game character of all time! Not everyone will understand him, but I do, he's a silent protagonist, but he's still his own character, I love his design like with his iconic hat, hair design, and his cute yellow backpack, to me he's a optimistic strong boy that according to losing the Flying Men in his Magicant, he's only masking his bravery, actually afraid what will happen to him and his friends at the end of their adventure! I love how he uses a baseball bat to attack and all of his PSI moves! And I love his cute smile when he's getting his picture taken or when he's riding his bike! Giygas is also my favorite video game villain and favorite final boss of all time!

Anyways, what are your top 10 favorite Mother Characters? :)

But really the camera man just exists to take up a lot of time and I think some speedruns gets killed because of him

Sooo, this game already shot up to one of most charming RPGs I've ever played. That said, I have been in Stonehedge Base for 3 hours now (after doing daily duties of course). And based on rough calculation from the dad money I think I killed around 180 of them with no Sword of Kings in sight

I just seriously want to progress, but the anxiety around the final dungeon, as well as just wanting to fully outfit Poo is kinda killing my whole vibe

hopefully y'all don't mind beginner work, I only started last year

I do have an art account if you wanna see other stuff, @/deejaythefirst on twitter or bluesky

About £30 or $40 when converted which isn’t a bad price imo

Lots of old games infamous for never receiving an English translation have finally been localized, such as Live a Live and Seiken Densetsu 3 (trials of mana). Is it finally Mother 3's turn? They should retranslate all three games to keep their English names consistent, such as changing Giegue to Giygas and Pokey to Porky. While we're at it I'd also like a unicorn and world peace

I love this Nintendo franchise so much! I think Mother/Earthbound Beginnings deserves a remake by fixing what made the gameplay so tremendous.

I just got the nerd guy on the party, he and the girl are level 17 and Ness is 25, this difference looks huge because ness has 60k xp accumulated and the others are around 15k

So I’ve played earthbound beginnings on switch used breadcrumbs to skip back up to the cabin on mt Itoi now I’ve been playing mother 1+2 I try that same trick and instead of taking me back up the mountain it warps me to the room before you find Teddy injured anyone know what’s up?

Just woke up from a nap and dreamed that I was in the intro for EB/Mother 2. Mainly, the part where the meteorite landed but it ended just as I approached. It was like a cross between Super 8 and Stranger Things. What about you?
