[Video Games] EarthBound / MOTHER

[madface7]

The MOTHER series is a video game trilogy starring supernatural psychic abilities, alien invaders, and strange phenomena. Its lighthearted humor and moments, combined with the heavy emotions and jarring nightmarish imagery presented have made it a cult classic video game that's greatly influenced the RPG genre as a whole.

okay i have a confession to make: i do wild hand gestures whenever i use PSI on the MOTHER games. something about them just. compels me to pretend i'm a magical PSI throwing kid or something like that

earthbound is known for its heartwarming moments, innovative battle structure, and overall aesthetic.

but the best thing about it will always be the PSI animations

Mother 1 Giygas is a criminally underrated character. Bit of a hot take but the plain concept of his battle in the first game is my personal favourite, even if his battle in the second has a way better execution.

Mother 1 is better than people give it credit for.
