Nowhere Islands are a complete downgrade from the world of Earthbound and Mother 1
Osohe castle is kino
>>12149172yep. literally no interesting areas until new pork city which is too little too late. where as every single location in earthbound is maximum comfy core kino
It's fine I'm happy with the first two and appreciate that it's a different setting
>>12149197The highway is the only other good area on Mother 3 until you reach new pork
Well, it plays with the theme of it being a post-apocalyptic world with an endless sea, and the island itself is just the cover of a giant sleeping dragon. As a setting it's an island and it is full of memorable setpieces. Maybe the one I remember less often is the snowman part, but everything else was memorable to me.Tazmily becoming a fascimil of the urbanized towns from Earthbound after the time skip was a neat touch, but it didn't need 4 more of the same kind of towns.The museum was memorable, the castle was memorable, tane tane was memorable, the highway was memorable, Saturn Valley was memorable.Well, no I think I really like the Nowhere Islands.
>>12149172It's a GBA game so who cares
>>12149172>>12149197It's because the game is supposed to be focused on Tazmily. Itoi wanted Tazmily to be a town that changes over time kinda like what we got with Animal Crossing. Not to mention that everything in Mother 3 was meant to betray the player, it having departures from the first two games is by design.>>12149189true
>>12150872>the game is a hate letter to the fansoh boy do I agree with that
>>12149197yeah by the time i got there i was so disenfranchised with the game that i just found it kind of eye rolling.
>>12149172Magical trannies bathing with kids to teach them magic is BASED
>>12149172Just play Mario and Luigi Super Star Saga and stop trying to pretend this is a good game.
>>12149172They tried too hard to be different
>>12149172Mother 1 and Earthbound both had plenty of comfy towns with characters to enjoySadly Mother 3 had Tazmily Village (Old and New), and New Pork City. You can add the Club Titiboo as a bonus nice little location. But man Mother 2 / Earthbound had soooooo many great places
