Why do people like to claim this has 10/10 writing?
>main cast for the most part have shallow personalities
>the awkward shifts in tone
>an essential plot point is conveyed by a long info dump
>shitty filler (the needles)
Do these people even read books or watch movies?
I made this thread earlier, but it died quickly.
>>
>>332222448
Your only point that's correct is the text dump.
>>
>>332222767
You're telling me that the needle shit was fine? Also, explain how the main cast ain't shallow as fuck. Lucas is just another silent video game protagonist, for instance. Nothing makes him stand out besides the game telling us "oh, he's shy, I guess".
>>
>>332223687
>You're telling me the needle shit was fine?
You haven't stated what's wrong with it except by misusing the term "filler".
>. Lucas is just another silent video game protagonist, for instance. Nothing makes him stand out besides the game telling us "oh, he's shy, I guess".
Look, I'll be honest, from my end, it just seems like you didn't play the game. So go play it again to refresh your memory or something, I dunno.
>>
>>332224253
I mean, it has been a while. However, I can guarantee you that one of the only characters who I remember having good character development was Flint. Also, would padding have been a better word instead of filler? Pulling the needles was such a chore.

It's no Undertale, that's for sure.

This sentence is not the equivalent of padding. The complaint means as much to me as a child complaining about a book being too long.
>>
>I made this thread earlier, but it died quickly.

Then you should have taken the hint. Fuck off, people are already sick of the Earthbound copypasta. Actually you're probably the same guy, aren't you?

Just how many "here's my retarded opinion" copypastas have you come up with? Goddamn you're autistic. Nobody likes you, and /v/ would be a much better place without you. Please off yourself.
>>
>>332222448
>Why do people like to claim this has 10/10 writing?
Because these people haven't read a single book in their life.
>>
>>332225923
Don't get me wrong. I like the game, I just don't think it's the flawless masterpiece people make it out to be.
>>332226005
Pacing is everything, friend.
>>
>>332223687
>You're telling me that the needle shit was fine?
Well it certainly wasn't filler.

The needles release the dragin underneath the island, and the dragon's heart is filled with the heart of the person who pulls the needles.

The Magypsies are a race who exist to protect the needles.

The needles are a way to further the main conflict and foreshadow the true nature of the Masked Man.

How is the core plot filler?
>>
>>332226275
What EB copypasta are you talking about?
>>
>>332226616
No one ever claimed it to be a flawless masterpiece
>>
It's not just the writing that works in Mother 3's favor, it's the package as a whole.
>>
>>332222448
I'm not sure if this is bait but I feel the same about it
>>
Yeah, Undertale is way better written.
>>
>>332226616
I'm not saying I feel the game is completely flawless, but to me the game hits the criteria I wanted from a sequel to Earthbound.

>>332226787

Except for every Mother 3 fan.

Only thing Mother 3 is better at than Mother 2 is combat

Everything is a step down. Was really dissapointed playing it after hearing all the praise.
It's basically Mother 2 for people who don't like Mother 2.

While the writing was good the story was uninspired and dragged on for unnecessary reasons.
Only things which were good were Ropesnake, every moment with the mother and Komatura's character design.

I'mma be very clear. I hate the chucklefucks who circlejerk about "muh feelz" whenever the game is brought up and act like it's the saddest/best shit ever. It's as if they never experienced death in any of their entertainment before.
>inb4 stop liking what I don't like (which would be pretty childish to say in this case)

Literally no one thinks Mother 3 has a good story anymore.
>>
>>332226616
>Pacing is everything, friend.
Nah, what happened was that you weren't expecting Chapter 7 to be longer than the others. So you kept playing to the point of fatigue instead of taking a break in-between.
>>
>>332228029
What makes you say that?

That was just since the release since no one would've thought Itoi is gonna touch and focus on these themes in Mother.
But since it feels so forced on me I didn't like it at all. It felt like an actual AAA storyline. And I don't mean that in a good way

But he's been doing that since the original mother.

Why should I have to do that? I can last a long play session. Maybe they shouldn't have made the chapter so shit.

A plot point of lost potential. The egg of light held the tazmily citizen's memories from their previous life and was a way to access them. Duster rembered who he was as he stored his memories in it in chapter 2. Why it is wanted by Porky is really a mystery, I don't know what he could've done with it he could do anyway

Mother 3's a great game, not perfect, but no game is.
How do you fags feel about shit like Undertale and the Lisa "trilogy?"

Also, any good games like the Mother series?

It is shit, though.
