He fucked up and let his wife die. He probably abused her too, or something
Usual mother4babby response.

You know that Earthbound has a confirmed gay character, right?

The only thing worse than an identity politics SJW is an identity politics anti-SJW
Grayson Harris
It's confirmed ex post facto by the author, outside the game. The game does't try to proselytize or glorify it.
Jordan Hernandez
I’d love to see your deranged logic on how Flint let her die. Also you’re forgetting that one of the primary antagonists is a sand nigger who is from a group of crossdressers
Tyler Sullivan
How would you improve the cast? What makes a character a good party member?
Nolan Bennett
>Oh look someone made a thread of my favourite game >It's this shit Just end this already.
Jack Ward
>primary antagonists is a sand nigger who is from a group of crossdressers
Just another form of shoehorning "diversity" in the game. Thanks for bolstering my point.
Cooper Young
"Mother 4" 's cast is looking pretty good.
Kevin Butler
Why, though?
Jack Peterson
It goes against your point because it is not a positive representation of either group.

Mother 3 is the greatest JRPG of all time.

poorly made troll thread. sage
Cooper Lewis
No forced bizzare characters just for the sake of being different.
Matthew Rogers
Oh, if any of the Mother games were made now a days. They'd be on Sup Forums's shit list. I'm sure Sup Forums will force some soyboy in there somewhere and mention how the game has a communist lean or something.
Angel Thomas
THe magypsies are not represented negatively, and even Fassad is redeemed by the end, so you're wrong
Josiah Diaz
It’s only been 5 days. Can’t we at least try to make 2018 nicer than 2017? I know identity politics are very important to you and consume your every waking thought, but for fucks sake, don’t make threads about it on Sup Forums.
David Baker
>communist leaning
Yeah, I forgot to included that in the OP, would be overkill tbqh

The main cast is more bizarre than Earthbound's, but I don't see why that makes them "SJW".

find me a jrpg that isn't sjw, then they are supposed to feel different every party member for how much a character that is a fag for no reason and reminds it of that every three seconds is annoying, a party of 4 chads is equally annoying and boring
Tyler Taylor
Like Flint killed her wife?
Jackson Powell
>but I don't see why that makes them "SJW".
You mean M3's? They run through the sjw checklist
>white guys are a failure >disability is not a hindrance! people with disabilities can kick ass too! >strong independent woman >animals are just like people!
Still, it's a redemption. If you want to go full diversity, you have to make the villain diverse too. And he's not the main villain. Porky is, and he' a, guess what, fucking white male!
Ryan Bennett

Porky is also obese. And mentally unstable. Pretty sure that's offensive for sociopaths and fatsos.

Except Duster is the comic relief of the group, have you played the game? >strong independent woman Just like 2b, but you don't mind her ass, huh? >animals are just like people! well, abusing animals like they did to salsa is so much assholish
Brandon Williams
And he never forgave himself for not being able to save her That's evil alright
Connor Carter
>going through grief over your wife's death is evil I know some people used it as an excuse, but the worst Flint does is neglect Lucas by going to look for Claus. Hell, he shields Lucas in the final battle.

let's play your game then. >s...soyboys are powerful too you know.... >white child is the cause of the evil >look how funny is america, it's such a shitty place with all this consumism and corrupt politicians you can make sound every game sjw with some fantasy, return calling people cuck around to feel better about yourself, faggot

From what's basically the strongest attack in the game. Last time I checked, taking that to the face 3 times to protect someone else was considered pretty heroic and ballsy.

Here's the deal: Earthbound as a series was never good. The game was an unknown very niche thing for the longest time. Even pre late 2000's it was this thing you could feel special for playing/liking/owning. You would bring it up to people and they'd usually give the answer of what is that? That allowed you to feel good for telling them about this rare gem. However, This wasn't meant to last. Spergs on a certain forum simply let a good thing lie and be a 'cult' hit they had to push it out into the open. The sequel has a sorta same ideal. Aside from suffering from the series's problems with its fanbase. It was in development trouble for a long time. This meant that when it came out it was going to be liked no matter how inferior or bad it was. Earthbound lost its quality years ago around the time a certain webcomic came out which also carried (even plagarizing) some of the game's elements and art. However, Mother 3 was inferior to even a mediocre game for the time. It wasn't a good game. People however tricked themselves into believing it was a good game due to them being able to PLAY it "Hey a new MOTHER game yay!" Despite all of its over bearing flaws. Around the years Mother 3 came out and EB was just in the stages of losing its hipster quality, A webcomic came out that sorta fed off of EBs unknowness and straight out ripping elements and even sprites from the game. The webcomic even had a meme where people would want to TELL you about it. This is obviously a deep rooted element of the game and most of a certain part of its fanbase are avid readers of the webcomic. That fanbase's forums/site nowadays are headed by SJWs, Furries and Bronies. It is Tumblr with an Earthbound skin. That was the rise and fall of this mediocre to start with series.
John Rivera
Mother 1 is the best game in the series.
Josiah Hernandez
You're sort of right.

Liam Long
Because back before you're time, everything wasn't filtered through your shitty political dichotomy.
Aiden Fisher
Nobody would say that. The game talks up simple life in a small community as opposed to abandoning that life for life in a big city. This is commentary on Japan more than anything else because every small city and town in Japan has suffered since the end of WWII with many losing more than half their population in the drive towards urbanization. People are abandoning nature and living in actual communities in favor of money and careers in big cities.
At the same time though, the game is about how Porky is a man out of place as he comes back to the world in a different era and tries to force the way of life on this new age and how he really shouldn't, how he missed the point of everything good about the old society he lived in. Porky didn't bring things like friendship and community and family in the way it existed in Mother 2, he brought only the bad things that are emblematic of his greedy personality. This always came off to me as commentary about post war Japanese society. There's always been reactionaries who want to return to Japan's imperial past. I think Itoi is trying to point out that all they want to bring back are the negative aspects of pre-war society; in Porky's case this is greed and abandonment of nature and in the imperial reactionary case its autocracy and militarization without actually bring good things like smaller communities where people actually know each other and live closer to nature. Their society had to redesign itself after a great societal calamity and the old way can't just simply come back much like in the game.
This doesn't even address how the system of life in the game made sense since their society was essentially down to like 20 people, making a currency system and modern life pretty much pointless. The game never addresses where Porky recruited his army from and I think this is left intentionally vague, New Pork City is hollow and fake all over; it looks grand and populated but is just a shell.
Wyatt Cook
>People ruined muh game argument if a game is good is good no matter how cancer the fanbase is, but we always need to look like edgy contrarians when we are not we love mother 3, but we need to make excuses on why we are better than anyone
Jordan Collins
You've overanalyzed this shit to death. It's not deep social commentary, it's a goofy video game for children. Don't reply to me unless you're willing to pull your head out of your ass.

There's nothing wrong with diversity, you fucks. It's when the game's sole reason for existing is to preach a political agenda that it becomes a problem

Mother 2 is less obvious about it but Mother 3 goes full sail with his ideals

>children's media would never try to instill any ideas or philosophies into their audience's mind! And how is M3 explicitly a children's game? In the very first chapter a character dies and her husband beats the shit out of his friends in a blind rage. That's pretty dark for a kid's game.
I'm hardly surprised. I don't dislike M3 but I do prefer Earthbound if only because it feels like a more "pure" experience, less bogged down by the creator's politics. It's worth noting that Itoi isn't really a gamer, nor does he really understand them. He was kinda like a proto-Kojima in that he wanted to create more subversive, narrative-driven games. IIRC he doesn't know shit about coding and his effort in the games boils down to just telling his lackies what to put in them.
