To make it brief:
>toby fox made a little Earthbound romhack that was apparently rad
>the guy who did Mother 3's translation was like "what the fuuuuuuck this even has custom music in the hack shiiiiiit"
>really nice little article about what it's like to romhack Earthbound
When I went to visit it, now there's this
Why? Probably because of the hype train. I'm just glad I got to read it before it was taken down

So did anyone that had the romhack distribute it elsewhere? Sounds neat.
Was interested. Found this

To be fair, the ROMhack in question is probably the edgiest fucking thing ever to come out of earthbound. Toby made it in his teens and it shows. Dude's probably ashamed as hell of it.

What do you mean 'because of the hype train?'
What reason would he have to take this down other than that he didn't want people to read it?
I read the page back in October when I played the Halloween hack. It made him sound really full of himself-- like oh man, what genius I am with this really involved and clever hack, check me out.
I especially didn't like how his inspiration for it was "there aren't enough gay video game characters" and his solution to that wasto take an established character and make them gay.It's on the level of saying Samus is trans.

I don't know, I was lucky enough as I had planned to play it for Halloween but I went outon a HOT DATE with a BEAUTIFUL WONANand I missed out, but I downloaded it

Cool I guess, weird you hadn't heard about it but good use of resources B-
>>318083457
Maybe? Probably? I'll check it out after I smoke the weed
>>318083561
Wow it sounds like you took something from it that I didn't. When I read it I saw the testimony of someone who really liked games and managed to do something pretty sweet and involved with an established medium that happens to be really difficult and time consuming to do, not to mention that he had a connection with the source material that showed up in later works. I haven't played it yet, and even if Main Character Kojimbo happens to be a hobosexumo, who gives a shit.
