Agreed, that's why it and the excellently made fangame Mother: Cognitive Dissonance are my favourite games.

do the Earthbound/Mother games take place in the same world?

OP here, all I can say is that it's way more enjoyable without a walkthrough. Most of the game is non-linear too so whenever I felt stuck I would just have a look at a guide for that particular part and that's that.

Also, most people who played both the NES version (MOTHER/Earthbound Zero) and the GBA one (MOTHER 1+2) highly recommends playing the last I mentioned, patched with Tomatoes translation (http://mother12.earthboundcentral.com/).). You can check on the link the improvements over the NES port, as well as the option to make the game less grinding with the Easy Ring.
