How was the gameplay?

>>5161263
It was magnificent indeed!

>>5161257
>Well I just completed my first play through of Earth Bound, and I gotta say...wow...I am emotionally drained...what a great game..phew..time to relax...

>>5161317
It is a good game though fuck reddit

>>5161330
>Good games leave me emotionally drained

>>5161257

Come on guys, >>5162234 was ironic.
Anyways, who was the better daughter, Ana or Paula?

>>5161410
I unironically don't understand what people enjoy in this game so much. I got to around half of it, but my entire inventory became full, and I have literally no idea what to do with it. It feels like I might softlock myself somehow, but I have no idea how. What do?

>>5162267
>Let's not fight guys haha which is the better loli haha jist asking nothing creepy about it

>>5162280
>internet
>fight
Yeah your reaction pic fits you perfectly.

>>5162271
Maybe stop panicking about softlocking you.
Use escargo express to store/retrieve items.

>>5161257

best thing about Earthbound is the soundtrack. How can anyone listen to this and tell me it isn't pure fucking KINO:

https://youtu.be/WwegKPNjnf0

>>5162330
Running out of space at Escargo Express also contributed to not touching the game for a year. Is there a list of items that I should _definitely_ not use? I got that magic shit from the hospital, and I was told to save that, but other than that, I have no idea. Or should I just say fuck it any play anyway?

>>5161257

You're an idiot who got beaten by a children's game.

10/10
>>5161330
It is but this OP is exactly the kind of reddit shit that swarms to games like this.

>>5161257
Is there a more overrated game than Earthbound?

>>5162671

Ironically, Undertale.

>>5162271
By softlocking I assume you mean being unable to finish the game which is different than a softlock BTW. There is no easy way to do it. The only way I can think of is if you do a memory corruption glitch.

>>5162671
FFVII

>>5161257
Glad you enjoyed it OP! Glad you weren't spoiled at any point, it's a really fun game to go through blind.

>>5162671
>awe bay rayted
Maybe the many games that are more popular than Earthbound.

>>5162671
mother 3

>>5162703
It's a perfect game anon

>>5162880

>>5162886
(you)

mods please nuke this thread

>/v/ begins to seep into /vr/ because popular game
Lmao you guys deserve the constant Smashposting if this is how you're gonna act

>>5162486
Tomoko posting doesn't work for calling out normies anymore, considering she's turned into one herself.

Earthbound is unironically one of my favorite games of all time. I played it back when it came out when I was a high school freshman because I'm old. I loved it back then too. A lot of people jumped on the eb bandwagon over the years and it's always a little disheartening to have a favorite game become some hipster trophy but oh well. I love everything about including the dumb shit like calling your dad to save

I'll tell you the reason why you all post these images non-stop. It's because the guys in these images remind you of who you tried to be when you were younger and failed. The people you see in these pictures are probably software engineers who make ~80k before the age of 30. They probably don't look at lolicon all day or hate niggers, but they are likely just as deep of individuals as you, if not moreso.

wow everything went better than expected.

>>5162935
OP here, yes mods please kill my thread it was a fucking mistake.

>>5162954
This is why we can't have nice things. Why live?

>>5163126
o i am laffin
it's a very good game though op

>>5163001
no they're fucking bugmen who do exactly what they think they're supposed to and expect a god given reward for fulfilling their social contract. In a word, they're completely unnecessary to human society and do nothing but fill space and consume.

>>5163126
Honestly, in comparison to Mother 1, Mother 2 was a great sequel, even though sometimes it feels like a remake on a platform that could flesh it out to its full potential. I still need to beat it and Mother 3

>>5163132

>>5163137
Unlike enlightened gentlesirs like yourself advancing society by hanging out in the sewers of a nigerian macrame forum.

>>5162683
Ye autiste hath spoken.

how to tell the difference between fake and real carts?

>>5163001
Sadly, these soi.boys are e-begging pedos/paedos who would attack/harass women/nigger if they don't follow point by point the SJW bible.And if they have money they losse their job because his twitter chimp up.
A shame, because if they were like you say, it would be funny.

>>5162341
Unironically the greatest soundtrack any video game ever had

>>5162983
1995 EarthBound owner master race checking in

Fuck you Internet, you're never going to make EarthBound into Undertale, it never was, there was just an unfortunate sidecar of faggotry that glommed on to the fanbase at some point

>>5164320
>I liked Earthbound before it was popular

Earthbound is fine if you're a stoner but Dragon Quest is the real thinking man's JRPG

>>5164334
Which Dragon Quest, because you can't honestly mean the first. That game is a perfect simulation of the soul sucking and mind numbing japanese businessman life experience.

>>5164357
probably 3 or 4

>>5164320
Yeah i remember that time clearly because it was in my first month or so of high school. Chrono trigger had just come out and i had been looking forward to it because all the magazines were saying it was the best rpg on snes. I loved final fantasy 3 (6) and ff 2 (2) so it was exciting there would be something better. I got CT and was disappointed because it didn't live up to the hype. It's still a fun and great game but it never stuck with me and still never has and I've never really understood why everyone canonized it. Not trying to start an argument...i don't take issue with anyone who loves it. The game just never resonated with me.

Anyway, i played earthbound within like a month of CT and i loved it so much immediately. Best game i played all freshman year. I remember one weekend my parents were gone most of the day and didn't get back until like midnight and i hooked it up to the living room tv, made a pizza and had one of the most fun/innocent Saturday nights of my life. The game happened around when i was making new friends I'd have for life. I didn't know anyone at the school because i just moved to town.

Anyway, thanks for reading. Don't forget to subscribe

most DQ > EB = peak DQ (3-5) > peak FF (4-7) = mother 3

and eb is really really good

>>5164320
>I owned a copy of a cart and that makes me special

>>5164645
>most DQ > EB = peak DQ
that doesnt make any sense m8

>>5164645
So most DQ are better than peak DQ? What?

>>5162271

>>5161257
>EarthBound thread
>is full of pictures of "men" with peach fuzz beards opening their mouths and a fat guy with a fedora
kek

>>5165410
As I read you pointing it out that way and looked through the thread, I couldn't help but uncontrollably kek for 5 minutes straight

>>5162271
You're not carrying around rulers and protractors are you? Also you don't need to stock up on consumables so you can dump most of those if they're what's taking up your inventory space

>>5162880
its fucking awful. its easy as piss, the writing and characters are shit and the setting is retarded.

>>5165836
>thinking mother 3 has worse writing than earthbound
fucking awful taste

>>5163001
>I want to be a consumerist idiot living for collecting plastic shit and following twitter trends

>>5165874
It does trough. The final battle is a fucking joke and Lucas is a fucking pussy

>>5165874
also,

>FUCKING
>TEXT WALLS

>>5161263
>>5161271

Is this true?

>>5165892
>Lucas is a fucking pussy
how? stop parroting e-celeb shit
Earthbound's writing is irreverent as fuck. Its literally just 'go to this place for random reason. oh also this is where you get a melody for some reason. oh now its time to fight giygas. by the way you are robots now lol'

>>5168159
>true
>anything in this place

>>5168167
Nigga can't fight his brother even if everything depends on it

>>5163001

Le funnie maymays and /v/ contrarianism aside, the mother games are genuinely good. I wouldn't say they're necessarily emotionally draining, but they have really good atmosphere and writing

>>5168178
What? You make absolutely no sense.

>>5163001
I thought it was because the recent fad of opening their mouths in photos looks stupid.

>>5168178
Did you even play the game? You literally fight Claus multiple times. Also the scripted end of the final battle is very touching, if you thought it was lame you might be autistic.

>>5168234
>You fight Claus multiple times
Lucas doesn't know and that wasn't the point
> the final battle is very touching
No. It was fucking bullshit. Lucas proved to be fucking useless, had no magical ghosts ever fucking appeared Lucas would be fucking dead. It was very disappointing and even more when looking at the unused content

>>5168261
And if Paula hadn't prayed and the NPCs and 'player' hadn't answered her prayers then they'd all be dead. Your reasoning is obtuse.
Mother games aren't about being a cool badass who owns the bad guys, they're about the love of friends and family and the power of people. I'm not sure why you'd hate mother 3 for having a soppy ending when earthbound does the same.

>>5162671
Unironically, Chrono Trigger.

>>5164318
You don't play a lot of games
