Great game, I actually remember the exact time I bought it. I called my local store and asked if they had it, and the employee who answered the phone went and looked and said they didn't. I ended up going there later on that evening anyway because my parents had to go food shopping and the toy store was in the same plaza. I went into the store and they did have the game, it was just on top of the game display cases where the game consoles were because of the huge box. I ended up getting the game afterall.

no, there are better mechanics, seriously

battle system with timed hits instead of spamming a
you can run
inventory is more intuitive
more balanced game (you can break earthbound really, really easily)

those aren't like objective and stuff dood, for everything that isn't game design its opinion... but for this its real.

It's like I'm really on /v/...

You can sprint, but because enemies attack you no matter what your level is and there are few wide open areas, sprinting winds up more frustrating than walking. The inventory system is functionally the same exact thing. Battle mechanics are a little better- but the battle system isn't great in any mother game.

And if you want to get into secondary game mechanics, how is healing in hot springs that are in sewers/mansions/anywhere that hot springs shouldn't be, and saving and getting your money from frogs a better game mechanic than using a hospital or ATM to do the same things?

Not trying to be rude, but there's no argument for it being "better" beyond subjective preference.

>> No.9932684

>>9932664
>but because enemies attack you no matter what your level is
what? you can just avoid them. i would actually say that this is more of a complaint for earthbound since you can only walk and enemies are faster than you..

>sprinting winds up more frustrating than walking
i dont know, i found it really convenient for going from place to place

>how is healing in hot springs that are in sewers/mansions/anywhere that hot springs shouldn't be
>and saving and getting your money from frogs a better game mechanic than using a hospital or ATM to do the same things?
it's a mother game... chill out? if anything, frogs are around everywhere and atm machines are only in specific places, atm are more scarce and less convenient...

there's a lot of better game design choices though...

the only reason itoi could have done that is because he

its a profound game... you can tell from all the character interactions that it is him putting his wisdom over the years into it and stuff...
