Is this shit really worth playing?

Is this shit really worth playing?

I'm trying to rescue Marie (past the pencil), and I'm bored out of my mind.

I never finished it. It is like a pokemon game, you can pour hundreds of hours into it as a kid, but it doesn't have enough depth to hold your attention as an adult.

>Marie
Anyways, that's the most boring part for me. The game really picks up when you get Jeff.
But still, this game is nowhere as good as Mother 3

>Marie
Who?

Earthbound's gameplay is fine though, and the game is nowhere near 100 hours long. Stop shitposting you retard.

No

It's a meme game for autists who want their disease celebrated in a display of juvenile 'quirkiness'. It's random and shit.

The bus music is good though.

don't listen to contrarians on this board, it's worth it

can i skip to mother 3? i like the setting, dialogue, music, etc. but im bored to tears

as for marie, my name for the female friend.

>PAL Version
It never came out in Europe, it's a bootleg

>>>/killyourselfyoudumbfuckingfaggot/

I don't really recommend it. Plus if you are that bored with M2, I'm not sure how much you will enjoy 3

You can skip to mother 3
I think you should, mother 3 is much better and is unlikely that you'll get bored

nice bait, but If you're bored zoomer/"alpha", then just stop playing/shitposting about it niggie
You'll always have shit taste, stop trying to "fit in"
>gay contrarian opinion

the game really picks up after that tho, but if u still don't like it more after that then don't bother with Mother 3 and go play a different game.

3 is even slower to start. You either need to sit and grind out the first 5ish hours on each or you're not gonna get into their good stories.
3 has you play as a few characters in those first few chapters, but the story doesn't open up until later. Earthbound doesn't open up until you get you're 3rd party member which isn't too long after you get Paula since you can come back and do the 2nd location when Paula isn't lvl 1.

You're literally not even 3 hours into the game. Drop it immediately, your ADHD zoomer ass doesn't deserve it. Don't even look at Mother 3 because that will be hell for you

Only reason this game is so revered is that it's a Nintendo game, it has a unique setting and it's a rare gem. The game is a perfectly serviceable RPG, I thought it was truly magical as a child but as an adult I just think it's fine.

ok, my bad, just keep truckin and appreciate the absurdity of the game

The game is actually better as an adult. Because you can pick up on what the game is indicating to you, making progress much more smoothly. Children are too retarded to play RPGs. Same with ADHD cases. They have the attention span of children, so they have the same struggles as children. They don't understand what the game wants.

I know this, because I watch the game on twitch. And a lot of twitch streamers have ZERO attention span. They skip through text, they don't buy any gear, they don't learn basic mechanics, and then they wonder why they're lost. Worst, they take it as an offence that the game doesn't tell them where to go. Their ADHD rattled brains can't take the anxiety of uncertainty for even a single SECOND. So they immediately start moaning like little bitches whenever they don't immediately know exactly what to do.

And then they inevitably reach the point where they call the game "boring", because they've been lost for 5-10 minutes, which in their brains is same as 1-2 hours. And then they start shitting on the game design, because they're too impatient to explore the world of an RPG game.

In short: OP is a fag.

Mother 3 is a 20 hour game with a PAINFUL 10 HOUR prologue, then a time skip, a horrifically paced "find the 7 macguffins" section where you blast through them 1 per second, and then a fucking Wikipedia lore dump out of nowhere near the end that has nothing to do with anything. The pacing could not have been worse if it TRIED. Steer clear of it.

>He doesn't like the first chapters
Unironically filtered. Go back to Fortnite, you subhuman monkey

Repeatedly entering and leaving some empty castle for 5 hours while watching le quirky cutscenes was truly riveting storytelling, really does a lot to establish the characters. Bravo Itoi.

game literally have a chad party member.
and you have to choose between him and your typical nerdy friend.
The first time you enter magicant, travel through train or learn the songs
It feels very special.

You should give it a try at least.
is a shame nintendo will never bother with this franchise outside of smash.

Brilliant, absolutely everything you said is false. Unless you think 2 times is too much. Plus if you only got "muh quirky" out of these chapters, that says more about your retardation than about the game.

Yeah but mother 3 actually has a story and characters

Because aside from "muh quirky", nothing fucking happens. If it did, I would mention it :)
The first half of the chapter is an inconsequential fake-out that does nothing except bore you to death and waste your time.
>"hurr you're wrong"
>can't articulate anything further than that
Simply ebin.

I have mixed feelings on it. The general premise is very charming, the battle system is great.

I can't recommend the full game spiritually though. Most people will scoff at this, but the game forces you go through a demonic ritual as Poo and there's something very, off about the discordant music inside the dungeon man. It's horrible and it gets in your head.

Not him, but replaying those early chapters is rough. I wish there was an option to skip it cause I really like Mother 3 after that.

The Mu training is kino

I'm guessing he renamed Paula.

Never played this shit, but I bet my left nut that it's overrated garbage like Planescape: Torment that people pretend to like just to fit with the "real gamers".

>inb4 pleb
Go to the GYM you tubby retarded piece of shit.

ew

>I DIDN'T PLAY IT BUT PAY ATTENTION TO ME

>i don't like game so that means it's impossible for anyone to like game
shut up retard

Poo's "ritual" was he was discarding his corporeal form and achieving oneness with the universe. Wtf how do you even interpret it as a demonic ritual?

Fuck you søyshit retards and your "muh games be art" bs

You would be surprised of the average intelligence of gamers nowadays. It's the reason people think Mother is just a quirky indie game or some shit.

It is from an artistic view, very interesting. I have too much experience with similar real religion to endorse it though. People think it's cool and transcendant, they don't realize they get possessed.

You keep saying quirky which is why I can't take you seriously. Not to mention everyone has a complete different dialogue when you talk them with Duster and then when you are with Wess. Plus Butch and Fassad foreshadows one of the biggest themes of the game, and exploring Osohe Castle with Duster alone is meant to give a different feeling of desolation which is why the Needle doesn't appear until you get Wess
