Curious about New Game Plus and the removal of previous Completionist episodes? The answers are in my update video: • The Future Of The Comp...
What makes a cult classic video game? It's the combination of a lot of unique elements, some weird, some great, that creates a charm that can't be replicated. EarthBound has that charm, and on a second playthrough of it I feel like I can appreciate this game even more. People are usually introduced to this classic JRPG when they see Ness in Smash Bros. They think to themselves "So THAT'S where you came from!" And then they discover a gem of a game with it's amazing music and timeless themes.
Let me know what you thought about my EarthBound review! Also let me know what other games I should re-complete for New Game Plus!

In the original Japanese PK (psychokinesis) is reserved for offensive abilities, whereas PSI is for support abilities. For some reason all the abilities were named PSI.

See , I imagined in the style of Studio Ghibli or Ponoc because they’re the only company I know of that can pull off the “moment of silence and tranquility” that Jirard talks about in the video. A Saturday morning cartoon style might work in the action scenes but those parts where it slows down and it’s peaceful, IDK of anyone else that could do it. Maybe it needs a halfway point between both (or if a live action version would be made, a director that could pull off both sides).

"...Earthbound strikes a perfect balance of being emotional and funny. There's no cynicism anywhere, and I love the game's earnestness." You have just encapsulated exactly what I love about Earthbound's tone. It has a weird and wonderful sense of humor, genuine moments of dread, and a complete emotional sincerity that I've seen so rarely in modern media. In a cultural landscape dominated by the irreverent weight of Irony, Earthbound is a breath of fresh air. I think the perfect example of this comes from the butterflies. When you catch them, they heal psychic points. But they do so by setting the mind of the characters at ease, which is important for psionics. Taken together, though, it creates a scene that is fascinating for what it means. Ness is reinvigorating his mental state by dropping whatever he's doing - even if it was completely Serious Business - and doing one of the most Kid things you can do: _chase a butterfly_ . That, right there, is mind-expanding. It is sublime. It is...so perfectly Earthbound.

Actually the who Dad thing was a reflection of his own situation. Since at the time of production and creation of the Mother series he was in a position where he couldnt see his daughter much.

Yeah I thought it was kind of weird in this video and in their lets play it made it sound like they thought Ness's father wasn't a good dad or something because you never see him. But honestly it was clear that he was doing everything he could, and their family is in a lot of debt so that's why he is working all the time, but he continues to give Ness a lot of money and always talks to him a lot on the phone. And at the end of the game he promises to be home next week for Ness's birthday and mentions how he can't wait to talk to Ness about everything. He seems like a good dad to me.

@@Jqcksremmurd i would say that m3 is actually better in almost every way. Gameplay added fun little implementation + the way story was handled actually hooked me up much better than first one. I can't tell what it was exactly, but i think the tone of the story and overall passing was better. Where M3 actually showed me something personal Earthbound start is kinda spontaneous with chosen one trope where exposition dump explained to you why you even should go on this journey. M3 on the other hand felt much more personal, even Claus actually had some character. So while i do get why most people prefer Earthbound (nostalgia, art, overall dream and child-like feeling of adventure, unaccessibility of M3 for a long time) I really think M3 is better in every way. Not that it make Earthbound bad or anything.

Jirard, my thoughts on Mother 2 are this. If you haven't played mother 3 it's even better. Please do so.

*I AGREE* If you thought this was good, Mother 3 is better.

Hey Jirard I wanted to ask have you ever considered making a top 10 RPGs list? I think it be awesome.

Howd you spell it? They only give you so many letters

FlyFreshTaDef it was at a specific point in the game, not at the beginning. Somewhere around the middle, it asks you to enter your name. Can’t remember where, exactly.

This is one of three games I complete on an annual basis, the other two being Crono Trigger and Shining Force 2 and has been since the days I first discovered roms. Love it and love you my dude. May the beard be strong with you.

The thing I love the most about this Game is even if you never played it, like I didn't until a few years ago, the Music still feels nostalgic, like whenever you hear it you are taken back to your childhood or a peaceful moment with your friends, its one of those Soundtracks I would love to have a Record of.

This game changed my life. I played it for the first time summer of 2017. My buddy has a copy and we played it for literally 8 hours non stop. No break. It made me feel like the way I did playing games as a kid. Long story short, my son’s name is Ness!

I had the privilege of coming across this game and buying it brand new when I was 10 years old. It immediately became and still is one of my favorite games of all time. It's so amazing to see this game finally getting the reputation it deserves. Most of my life I had never come across anyone else who had played it and it warms my heart to see it having such a huge fan base now!!!

I was lucky enough to play this game when it was new, and it was definitely a highlight of my childhood. As well as Earthbound has aged, there's something about playing a game in the context of the time period it was developed in that just adds something irreplaceable to the experience. And I'm so very happy I got to experience it.

Wait, first 123 Completionist episodes? That number grew by 3 since last time, what happened? Just so happens to be the first time Jirard doesn't tell us to find more details in the description.

One really neat thing about the game is that when taking pictures, whatever you had with you on the time will be present on the final picture. This includes having all 4 party members, teddy bears, flying men, riding the bicycle, mushrooms, possessed status ghost, Dungeon Man, and even unconscious/diamondized party members. It's a great touch that not only showcases your progress upon completing the game, but also various things you've encountered along the way. There's 20 picture locations and I recommend finding them all.

I imagine that the 1/128 challenge would be easier if you had a certain charming young boy from Arizona on-side as a lucky charm. After all, IIRC he got the Sword of Kings pretty quickly in his Let's RePlay of the game, due to his unnatural Luck stat. Also, my headcanon is that Jeff sounds English. Possibly with a northern accent, since I also read Doctor Andonuts' lines in the voice of the late Peter Sallis, aka Wallace from Wallace & Gromit.

Getting the sword of kings is worth the trouble. It took me about 40min of grinding but the feeling when you see that text box pop up it is sublime :)

I played Earthbound (and by proxy Mother 3) for the first time as an adult and I absolutely see what you mean. It's just an earnest and positive good time that had me in the happiest tears during the final battle.
