ive known about EBHH since I was just fourteen really but ive Never actually played it myself and seen it firsthand, kinda just heard oh its broken oh its so edgy ohh its this and that
And i mean yeah it totally is LMFAO but in a funny way T B H id even go as far as to say that EBHH has the feel and bounce of some earthbound dialogue quirks but also clearly being written deranged in a way thats just .... hilarious??? Like theres some moments that are so mean spirited in dialogue that i cant even take it seriously
But aside from all that i genuinely do like the sprites and the weird use of the more unsettling music, the game balancing itself though could literally be some shit where "oh i guess i got my ass beat by a mushroom that can deal 540 damage now" (meanwhile ur at like 20 hp and lvl 1)
i feel like i can actually get some semblance of a good AU idea and journey in the darker aspects of the series and having a story where the remaining NPCs have to cope with bittersweet victory and loss
it's just that its also very silly about it and... lets go with Strange abt how it conveys these things
but its a 3/5 game purely cause its an actual finished earthbound hack
its funny(mostly)
and i actually do like the shakeups with the PSI learnset ig
Some of the tone and aesthetics are pretty pleasing to me too
this also connects the mother franchise with some series called brandish that ive never played before but apparently there's references to it in the dont care name select and other shit of that nature
i never played those though so this is the romhack equivalent of those cursed videos where duncan from total drama action is dying on his deathbed and everyone in the total drama cast is there but also abraham lincoln from clone high is there for some reason
like
h u h?
but yeah its WAY shorter of a game than Earthbound even is and if youre a MOTHER fan and u can put up with some dumb shit and horrible balancing and maybe getting softlocked for the holidays on accident...... distant seagull cry
Then yea try it, there's even the funny andonuts thing
i actually do think its interesting to explore him feeling bad but also he's kind of a goofy asshole thats inattentive to most ppl in his life anyways so this is sure is... A Interpretation. Funny that even way back when Toby was out here doin whatever you can taste traces of his writing/game design ideas here.
tldr; ea-
