In Mother 1 it was sweet and alright and i liked the twist of how it was the great grandmother who sang that lullaby to the Alien.

In Earthbound it was the most cancerous shit i've everp layed, ever, having to constantly revive that BITCH Paula just so she can pray repeatedly, holy fucking boring. Even cheats wouldn't work in that fight, Earthbound sucks so much. And the player itself being the one who prays for the final boss to die, holy cringe.

The Giygas fight is still one of the weirdest and most unsettling boss encounters in any game. It's not even a fight in the traditional sense, itโ€™s just this abstract descent into madness. The whole idea that he โ€œcannot be graspedโ€ and the baby cries in the background? Pure nightmare fuel. Itoi really just injected his childhood trauma straight into that battle and called it game design. Still, I gotta admit, even if EarthBound feels like a meme sometimes, that moment sticks with you.

I hate trannies too but this was the before days when they in media they were more like monty python bugs bunny drag Queen obviously a man transvestites played for laughs. They're actually based on okami or that weird transvestite thing in japan.

One does rape a kid though but uhhh hey who hasn't sucked a little tranny cock in a hot tub. The book this is based on has girls fucking dogs and boys named Lucas and Claus being raped and pissing too. Society is weird have fun with mother 3.

All the carpenters were faggots like this in Ocarina of Time but it got censored and localized out. But even in BotW just fucking look at them. They're just drag Queen transvestite type things there's also a name on it in japan too. Actually trannies always existed they get mentioned in fucking snatcher. And fucking the matrix trannies were trannies in the 90s. Or one of them was. I'm high as shit on benzos I dont know what I'm saying.

No are you fucking me if this game was made now it would be called bigoted and transphobic for the 'man in dress' harmful stereotype and a joke that makes it look like one of them rapes Lucas a literal child.

I dont know how it hasn't been cancelled go be honest


I'm 35 I was 16 when this game came out and I remember calling Tomato a nigger faggot for localizing Yakuba'a name as Fassad because I hate dub niggers because I just found out how to torrent Gundam Seed Destiny at the time. You fucking watermelon sized nigger faggot .

Tomato just changed proper nouns for no reason which you dont generally do in fan translation. It's a pun on fassad (like a lie) even though the japanese one was a pun that meant something else. I cant remember the details I'm going to fucking stick my dick in a oxygen machine

yokuba is a joke name to signal the character is evil so tomato chose fassad/facade as a joke name for his localization.
i don't agree with it either but it's great otherwise and better than anything ninty does.

2 didn't sell very well despite taking place in Eagleland (U.S.) and being extremely inspired by Western culture. 3 cut back on that influence and even seems to be a criticism of Western culture's corrupting influence on Japan so they probably decided it was hopeless. I think it also came out late in the GBA's lifespan so that doesn't help.

It's a tonal shift from (mostly) lighthearted adventure to shit finally getting serious. It's effective precisely because of the contrast with what came before. Over consistency is the exact thing that can make a game feel like boring tedious busywork.

Pretty sure he means the "apple of enlightenment" shit, and yeah, he's not wrong about that. However Mother 3's Leder info dump is so much more egregious. 3 takes its own story so much more seriously, too, which makes that part even worse. With the apple of enlightenment you can sort of disregard it, which I'm sure most people do, it's not a big deal in the story. Meanwhile Leder's info dump nearly ruins Mother 3's story with how fucking retarded it is.
