1. I am currently playing the Mother series. Already beat 2 (better known as Earthbound). It was a great easy RPG game.
2. Lag. All of you playing at the same time taking away all that server space. I’ll wait until the traffic lowers. 3. Hahahahaha I’m sure many of you already skipped your chances at one-time peens because you are so anxious of watching the ending sequence. Well when they get posted on the wiki I’ll get them though some of them I already know how to, because I tested the game Log in to see images! 4. 1212121212121212121212 5. speaking of e-peen, I’m pretty sure there’s no peen for being the first to beat ep 3/first permanoob/rere to beat it. And even if there was one, I wouldn’t get it because I am not oh so over powered and best equiment, technique, blahblablabla to be superfast and super obsessed with getting all that. 6. Enjoy your game. No, seriously enjoy it, the writters did a good job. Try and read the convos even if they seem too long. |

I didn’t realize there was any lag Log in to see images!
I’ve been taking my time and playing through the game differently on all of my alts; believe it or not, I’m actually taking my time and trying to enjoy the Episode, and so far I’ve been pretty happy with it. If I’ve missed any e-Peens, it’s because I avoided chat options that didn’t sound like they matched my character’s alignment, for better or worse. |

Heck, I was still able to play pretty much regularly that very same night during domination endgame. It went just as smotthly as any domination endgame. This was nothing like the horror that was the Episode 2 release…
All your other reasons are perfectly legit though. Enjoy your Mother Marathon. |

If there’s lag it wasn’t noticeable, I don’t think a ton of people are playing Episode III at once. It was released at a rather ill-opportune time, after the holidays and right at the beginning of midterm exams.
As for Mother, you call it easy? I was told of both games (?) by one of my juniors, it sounds amazingly awesome, but it’s played in three dimensions, right? Shouldn’t that make it more difficult than other tactical sci-fi games? |

what mother are you talking about. I’m talking about Mother/Earthbound. Ness, Aliens, american kids fighting with bats ray guns and frying pans RPG. It’s a very easy RPG though it still feels amazing to play it.
so far the only hard thing I’ve found about it (Mother 3) is mastering the ****ing rhythm-combo thing goddamn it gets annoying and it’s hard. ChilePepino edited this message on 01/23/2010 3:11AM |

Well Mother 1 was tricky if you lacked the good equipment and some levels, but Nes RPGs aren’t exactly known for being very friendly. Mother 2 was easy as cake (Especially with Multi-Bottle Rocket spam from Jeff) and Mother 3 is only hard if you play it on the hidden Hard mode which might have been put in there by the translation team (I forget Log in to see images!)
It can be a pain in the bum to get those rear view of some enemies though to complete the bestiary. At least until you can have Duster flip them around mid combat Log in to see images! |

mother 2 is really easy but on the other hand I do love leveling up constantly. It doesn’t give me time to start feeling frustrated. Also as much as I love other clbumic RPGs I ****ing ****ing HATE random encounters. The last boss had me on the edge the whole time. |

Mother 3 was hardcore. I cried over it, and I don’t cry over videogames much.
It’s truly a well-translated piece |

My reasons are: 1. I refuse to pay for it. 2. I am a beta tester and I refuse to pay for Episode 3. 3. The writing is masturbatory and juvenile. 4. “Hey lets name someone fart and comment on it! We are so self aware and real comedy writers.” 5. ”’Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac. Big Mac.’ It’s funny because we just repeat it over and over again. What are you talking about? Why would we ever need more than one joke?” 6. I would be more interested if JB wrote it all by himself. There has been a drop in quality since EPOne. 7. DId I mention how long winded it is? They took a **** and then decided to comment on every wrinkle. 8. Mediocrity abound. 9. Anyone want to be my Valentine? I should hold a contest. 10. Everything has been so much better when I stopped subscribing to threads. 11. I’ve ran out of steam for this. I eagerly await No More Heroes 2. |

One of the most beautiful things in Mother 2 though was that if there was no chance of you even being hit by simply hitting attack in a battle, they automatically let you win the fight. So many more games need that Log in to see images! |

There problem isn’t any lag because Evil Trout has put us on faster and/or more servers. And he has streamlined the gameplay to run smoother. Plus there are less people. |

was Posted: OK was Posted: OK was Posted: May I ask which game you thought you were playing? was Posted: There were no comedy writers involved. There may have been writers involved. Their number and self-awareness is debatable.
was Posted: I, too, do not like hamburgers.
was Posted: I don’t see a drop in quality; it seems mostly the same to me. Unfortunately, “more of the same” is often perceived as a drop in quality. I would agree if you had said there was a drop in continuity and cohesiveness. All of the above are extremely challenging to overcome in an episode-based format.
was Posted: I think many people agree that it became too wordy. How would you recommend game additions be approached in the future, given the IM-convo format around which the game and a majority of its content is built?
was Posted: This is not a sentence.
was Posted: You are on this site so much for a reason.
was Posted: I do not know what this means.
was Posted: I do not know what this is, but your steam seems undiminished. You seem full of it, even! |
