Mother 3 Thread

mother 3 is fun, but doesn't, and will never live up to the hype surrounding it.

also FF6 and chrono trigger are both better.

About a decade late there OP

I was never a fan of EarthBound so I ignored Mother 3 until last week

My favorite game ever made but even I can acknowledge there are better rpgs probably. Still happy to see a thread for M3. Few years ago I bought a physical copy with the box and all inserts. If I had the money I would probably get the deluxe box.

Overrated as fuck.
It's a good game, but the story isn't anything as complex or mind blowing as the dumb fans want you to believe.
For a Nintendo game, though? Maybe.

*for a Nintendo-developed game

>call a game "the best rpg ever made"
>just because you played it last week
nah, you are a shit op

>>384318487
I didn't think the story was super mind blowing. The twist that Claus is the Masked Man is pretty obvious from the part where they mistake Lucas for him. Really, it's just a lot of nice moments leading up to the amazing ending with the overarching story being pretty uninteresting compared to Lucas and his family/party's character arcs.

Do they have a box or manual for the fan translation cart or do you need to buy the Japanese game for the extras?

>>384318350
>years ago during the Mother 3 hype
>try to buy the special M3 gba and game set on eBay
>snipers always came in at the last second

Shit sucked.

>>384317804

Literally the most overrated JRPG ever, and that's including Final Fantasies VI and VII.

>>384320591
No, honestly I think buying a fan translation cart is kind of a dick move. You're paying someone for the makers of the games and the translations team work (which they did as free). If you want to do it but I can't say I like it.

As for content it depends, different people make different repos so it depends who you order from.

>>384317804
Text based adventures aren't games.
Sorry.

>mother 3 is fun, but doesn't, and will never live up to the hype surrounding it.


>play earthbound
>this is alright
>get bored and drop it around fourside
>few years pass
>hear about mother 3
>dude this game will make you emotional
>yeah right
>few more years pass
>decide to give it a shot
>holy fuck this is good
>get to ending
>weep like a little bitch

i don't think i've played any other game that got hyped up to the degree mother 3 did, yet met my expectations fully

>>384321317
bait harder. Here's a pity (you)

The impact of the story was lost on me because I got stuck grinding where you're in the rafters of some building and the rats are the only save point

Sorry, I reread your question again and think I misunderstood. I doubt any repo would come with the inserts of a real game, that would be weird. If you want the official inserts you need to buy the real thing. If you really want I can take some shitty phone pictures if you're curious on something.

>>384321069
>including Final Fantasies VI and VII.
>FFVII

this is hyperbole. FFVII is the most overrated gmae of all time, so it by default must be the most overrated JRPG.

>make series
>it's great
>end it
>should we try something similar under a new IP?
>nah. Is Fire Emblem XCVII ready for release?
N I N T E N D O

>>384321443
No, I was mostly wondering if an English manual existed

>>384321517
Itoi has said he doesn't want to make a new one so I think it's better that it ended instead of turning into Paper Mario

>liking tumblrtale-like shit
Let me guess, you care about games because of the story and completely dismiss the gameplay, right?
Fucking faggot.

Sage.

>overrated shit from and overrated shitty franchise
>best anything
Am I really on /v/?

>>384321808
>Being suprised that people on /v/ have bad opinions

>>384321693
the game is fun to play and enforces the story further faggot

take this garbage back to >>>/reddit/

>>384321602
Itoi doesn't have to be involved.

>>384321693
Games with "good gameplay" are a diamond dozen on Steam. Fuck off.

>>384321517
It wouldn't bother me so much if Paper Mario wasn't gutted to hell and back by Tanabe. >"But Mario is for kids, why would that make a difference if they no longer make Mario RPG's?" Yet "babby's first jrpg" somehow ends up on everyone's top jrpg lists.

>But Xenoblade!

Which is basically Sword Art Online at this point.

>>384317804
Like Earthbound it's hideously overrated. I like it but compared to what we could've had on the N64 I will eternally be disappointed.

>>384317804
Earthbound was better

>>384322002
>>"But Mario is for kids, why would that make a difference if they no longer make Mario RPG's?"

Who are you quoting?

Well, looks like we can't have a comfy Mother thread without all the /pol/tards jumping in and trying to shit on a perfect game.


If only all of you idiots would just go back to your containment board.


Just let this thread die.

>>384322438
nice red.dit spacing cuckboi

>>384322438
You have no idea what you're talking about.

>>384317998
>will never live up to the hype
well I'm just going to have to disagree with you as hard as I can here. The finale is a heart rending tear jerker and the series wraps up the final legacy of gigue that started in mother 1 even if it was hasty in the last moments.

>>384317998
They are not. Especially CT is all nostalgia and doesn't hold up. M3 on the other hand, isn't reliant on you having grown up with a nes/snes

It's pretty good

>/v/ hates mother 3 now
What happened?

>>384326578
People who never played the game saw OP calling something the best game ever made and got salty

>>384326578
/v/ no longer has any direction in what a community does or does not like. it's only a chaotic mess of ironic shitposts going every which way now.

>>384317804
If it is the best RPG ever, why is its actual RPG mechanics so fucking mediocre? Almost nothing about it makes it any different than any other DQ clone.

>>384326578
Fucking Undertale happened, you know that.
but it's just le theory

>Doesn't have a thread for the best RPG ever made

cool, we gonna discuss chrono trigger, xenogears, xenoblade, or bloodborne ITT?

>>384317998
>FF6 and CT
>better than M3
Not thinking so, even though they're both fine games in their own right.

>>384321997
>diamond dozen

>>384327478
But the best RPG ever made is Gothic 2.

>>384327675
you're still here? Fuck off you annoying insect

>>384320231

It's supposed to be obvious that's who it is. The twist is that he kills himself since he would rather die than hurt a family member

>>384317804
I wanted the real last boss

fuck off to reddit with your reddit spacing and muh boogeyman shit, literally nothing up to and beyond your post has been political or racist

>>384318887
Judge a game not by its merits, but how long you've been a fan of it. That's my code, and it's the best one there is since I've had it for a long long time.

Countersage for being a faggot
