    That "sized up the situation" line is such a subtle joke! I always picture the enemy going, "Wait. Why am I fighting you again?" and then confusing itself by trying to work out the logic of Earthboud's extremely obscure plot.

    I love the idea that Ness has homesickness considering he is a child, especially because it seems he’s never been all that far from home. To go from living at home everyday to having your routine taken away everything just feels wrong, so it’s a fitting weakness for his character.

      Huh, that's interesting to think about. Its like as Ness starts his journey, he's closer to home, and doesn't have to worry about anything when his home is a town away. But as he gets further along, when he starts getting into unfamiliar territory, he starts to miss home, not wanting to be in those places anymore cause he's just a kid. But as he goes further and levels up more, those fears start to decline, outright going away during the end game as he realizes what he has to do and not worry about those back home, as he vows to protect them via completing his quest.

      I'm very late, but this is about half true. The second, third, and fourth towns indeed line up like this, and that's neat. But, Onett's hotel has two beds and everywhere else just does whatever.
      Edit: Unless you're referring to the "costs" of each bed for each party member? 'Cause that's certainly true. Every member available has to pay for a separate bed, so hotel prices appear to go up by a lot each town.

    I find this to be the final hard step of the early game. I've always had a struggle wrapping up and getting back to Twoson in one piece, didn't help that I missed the sanctuary spot beforehand. Then the rest of the game is very doable until Diamond Dog, then back to hell. Maybe not as bad as dealing with evil trees though.

    Lilliput Steps is by far my favorite sanctuary. It's such a _human_ sanctuary I guess? It reminds me of paths people make in the grass instead of using the sidewalk.
    It just feels like a small moment in time has been immortalized, at the end of a remote cave.

    I just found out today that in Japan a lot of people don't like Mother 3. That surprises the hell out of me.

    • @cartooncritic7045
      @cartooncritic7045 6 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      JD 13 Japan generally prefers cute/funny to darker stories. There's also the whole deal with Mother 3 having a teensy bit of "Final Fantasy 13 Syndrome" in having multiple points of no return because of plot stuff.
      Editing to clarify: I am NOT comparing Mother 3 with FF13 in terms of quality. Mother 3 is very clearly the better game of the two. I'm just saying that both games are very linear and only have one chapter of "free roaming" toward the very end.

    • @TeruteruBozusama

      So, not only we may never get Mother 3 in North America... but the only place in the world where it was released, barely even *LIKES* the bloody game.
      What a pisser.

    • @TeruteruBozusama
      @TeruteruBozusama 6 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      DeadhoofofWind I dunno why, but I have a feeling we'll get it eventually... Especially with the cameos of multiple characters in both Mario Maker and Smash Bros. Ultimate. Including to that, I did some research, seems like of 479 people on Amazon.co.jp does 49% give it 5 stars, and 8% give it 1 star, so it's a vocal minority.

    • @DeadHandtheSurvivor
      @DeadHandtheSurvivor 6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      And I also strongly believe that one day we will get it and I will cry manly tears if that happens, but honestly? At this point they couldn't re-release it as a VC title considering that service is pretty much dead, they would have to release it as a port...
      Maybe they could release a HD collection of some sort for the Switch and 3DS? Maybe put Mother 3 in it for the world to play? We'll have to wait and see.

    So I restarted my playthrough of Earthbound a few days ago to play this alongside you - for me, it's my first time playing through all the way - and I got to this place without Paula. I decided "Oh, I'll come back after getting Paula." So I did that, and then I actually forgot about the area and went on to Threed. The funny part is that since there are still ghosts in the tunnel, I don't think I can leave Threed to go do this part yet. That amuses me for some reason. I totally forgot this area existed.

    On my play through of Earthbound, I fought mondo mole without pp on Ness. He died 2 thirds through. I preyed with Paula to see a rainbow light that REVIVED NESS. That was my first try preying in my entire experience in Earthbound. Huh.

  • @Rexaura888
    @Rexaura888 6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Gods, I forgot that the mole had blood on his in-battle sprite. Wonder if it’s that of some unfortunate cultists who tried to run away...
    0:55 Sorry, cheek pinching? Are you saying you want to be this guy’s dad?
    1:06 Don’t read too much into that folks. If anything he’s been talking to Mike Pollock again.
    2:20 Curious what Gen I version Emile had growing up. I’m sure kid Emile would’ve liked seeing everything Blue in Pokémon.
    3:10 Still better than 1, as Emile would’ve once referenced when he would bring up “One is the Loneliest Number” a fair amount back in the day.
    Word gets around fast.
    4:07 By weak, he means defensively. He did call her a *glass* cannon after all.
    6:49 Fortunately the weakness chart for enemies isn’t nearly as complex as, say, Phantasy Star Online’s.
    7:56 That’s honestly fascinating, though the only use I see out of it is with the Casey Bat...maybe...
    8:55 Whatever you say, Vaike.
    9:52 ...I never realized that. That’s...wow...well done.
    10:28 Funny. With the +5 Speed, I think Ness would later benefit from it more. He could stand to be more accurate, and +1 Defense isn’t really that pivotal in comparison.
    Uh oh...someone’s homesick...
    13:17 Beautifully illustrated in the Chosen Four comic too.
    15:18 Strange thing is I don’t remember the bears giving me all that much trouble. Maybe it’s because of the grinding...
    He looks so pleasant though!
    16:36 That would actually be in Part 2 of your LP, Emile. One of the Sharks that tried to interrupt your ending attempted to join the first fight with one but didn’t make it in time.
    18:00 Guess I won’t be one of those fans then. I’m not insane enough to grind for pizzas that early on.
    21:30 Hooray for suspend points.
    22:09 Makes sense. He’s a mole after all. Moles and bright lights do not get along.
    24:04 Good. Like it.
    25:37 And most of your inventory. Curious to see which of the two attempts you’ll be continuing off of.
    26:46 Don’t forget to let Everdread know she’s alright too.

When I got to the cave The first enemy ran up to me and I got a instant win and every enemy was nearly one shot by my attacks then when I got to the Boss I ONE SHOT HIM!
