Another /v/ tier thread. I hate this place more and more each day.

He's vilain because he was beat up by his dad
>>
>>12516485
then leave. it's not going to get any less like /v/ over time
>>
>>12516490
Literally most boys
>>
>>12516495
Anon, just because your dad said it while beating you doesn't make it true.
>>
>>12516479
Played the entire series and while it's a cute game I don't see the hidden adult depth of it. It's clearly aimed at children with very straightforward plots and themes.
>>
>>12516492
There is no where else to go.
>>
>>12516485
What exactly makes something /v/ tier vs /vr/ tier?
>>
>>12516549
there are a couple places to go though if you don't like it here. retrogametalk, gamefaqs
>>
>>12516563
Quality.
>>
>>12516574
So being better makes it like /v/? Because threads like this one are fun.

Those are the best kind!

>>12516574
How do you measure quality on a site that had Epstein involved in its creation?

>>12516479
>protagonist is good because...he is good!

Nah he is based on Rumfoord, a character from The Sirens of Titan, which Itoi many times cited as an influence for the Mother series.

>canned spam threads are fun
Oh no, it's retarded.
>>

>>canned spam threads are fun
Ones like this? Yeah.
>>
>>12516603
>protagonist is good because....because he likes nature and hates tv
Fixed it for you
>>
>>12516490
You mean yelled at by his dad

i've been convinced since mother 3 came out that the whole series is a time loop. the perfectly sae capsule kept porky perectly safe for untold millennia until it got so old it couldn't keep functioning at full capacity, mutating him into the being that would be found and adopted by ninten's grandparents and named gigue.

>>12516479
He's evil because he's been alive for an unimaginable amount of time without ever maturing mentally past being a 10 year old brat

There's been a huge surge in zero-effort template threads where the opening text could reasonably be applied to almost any image so that the OP can spam garbage disguised as legitimate discussion to drive "real" discussion off the board.
>what was his problem?
>who was in the wrong?
>what went wrong?
>villain is [adjective] because... he is [adjective]!
>for me, it's [noun]
>did [noun] really deserve it?
>why did he do it?
>what purpose does this/do these serve?
>this was considered [adjective] in [year]
And these are just a few examples.
It's just awful because if you tried to pull this exact same shit on a board like /a/, you'd almost certainly get hit with a 3-day ban. Alas, no one seems to give a single fuck about /vr/ as they're clearly not interested in doing anything to stop the attention-seeking retards bleeding over from /v/ whose threads no longer get them the attention they want over there.
>>
>>12516479
I thought this was dumb too, until every movie/game/TV show turned into
>le evil character is just misunderstood and a victim
Ironically turning the "twist" into completely predictable trite
Now I enjoy characters that are just evil from birth
>>
>>12516479
It's true. I knew kids like this. Always the fat kids who were the worst little shits. Would never let anyone else play with their toys.
>>
>>12517161
You act like the threads that don't do that here aren't even worse, because it's just underaged faggots seething about hating the retro games they've adopted as their "hobby".
>>
>>12517878
It isn't a matter of one being "worse" than the other. Objectively, the zero-effort template garbage does not belong here in the first place. At least the people seething about hating retro games are actually talking about retro games and inviting relevant discussion into their threads. Some jackass making 20 off-topic threads disguised just well enough to fool the blind-ass jannies invites only ruin.
>>
>>12517873
You're not entitled to someone's else toys

I see similar threads on /a/ and they don't get deleted

>>12516490
Picky didn't turn out that way.

>>12516542
I don't think Mother and Earthbound were trying to be deep. M3 was different and tried to be deeper, maybe tried a little too hard.

I replayed Earthbound recently and thinking how it just seems like kids playing together using their imagination but I don't think that necessarily means it was aimed at children. It deals with some more mature topics even if it's only lightly.
