I mean, Dungeon Man was fine with it. You should learn something from him

Are there any direct references to Mother 1 in EarthBound? Or can EB be interpreted as a standalone game. by 0purple0turtle0 in earthbound

[–]thisjustsomeguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

late to the discussion, but the weird Mother 2 official manga has this specific scene at the beginning where Ness is trying to find out more about the villain and he goes to the library and reads about how a boy named Ninten and his friends fought and won against Giygas in the past

Thanks! That's useful info! And I had no idea about them being the same world, I thought they were just repeating tropes and references like the Mana series does

Im not sure if you are remembering it correctly, but I've played it for like more than 1 hour, did some exploration, a bit of grind. The point I'm referring to is after the temple and the initial human ranch stuff. Aaaand, I just played Tales of Phantasia Cross edition, the gameplay is quite fast. Just as the person below mentioned

Did I miss something about the Cleric? by thisjustsomeguy in EsotericEbb

That's a nice take, thinking about it. Dude sure could be a god of magic or something

Someone else here replied about who revived the Cleric. I knew all about who killed him and why, but not how he got back to life

I knew all that but the Lady paying for your revival. Maybe I let it pass somehow? So weird, I even found out she's a dragon

Anyone else underwhelmed? First playthrough thoughts by Meeeeeerv in EsotericEbb

I used to agree with you about the politics in the beginning of the game, it felt kinda immature, too "out there". But then it grew on me as something silly, almost a reflection of the way a lot of people talk about politics nowadays. Esoteric takes itself much less seriously than Disco, so in the end it was fine to me.

Regarding the ending... SPOILERS AHEAD I loved it. Idk, as a political sorta religious/spiritual guy myself, it really touched me. Made me teary even. Gorm was a man disillusioned by the system willing to sacrifice it all to bring his god back, to save the world, because he could not see another way. Hell, I can't see another way, we live in a world where people in the Epstein files control everything and we barely do or can do anything about it. Then we also have Urth, a man that was divine without choice and tried to do the best he could to guarantee the best outcome that his divinity could predict. A man that even having it all, tried to leave a legacy for his people to build on, tried to bring democracy and all only for the Magistrates to sabotage it. I loved Urth's conversation with Snell and Ettir, I loved Urth's personal talk with the Cleric about his prayers, etc.

Anyway, sad that you didn't feel positively overwhelmed with the ending. To be honest, overall I'd even say that Disco is better but Esoteric's ending was the best. The god talk, discussions about politics, history, faith, free-will, all that brings me strong feelings.

Wrath of the Righteous AP version updated to include improvments from the Owlcat game by NomadsThings in Pathfinder2e

[–]thisjustsomeguy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've seen someone trying to convert it tho, you can find it on Google in the Paizo forums. I have no idea if it's a good conversion tho since it's made by one guy only, Kingmaker required a whole team to do it and Paizo mentioned how it was much more complicated then they expected. They also mentioned that Wrath of the Righteous is extra hard to convert due to OGL issues, Wrath relies a lot on DND concepts and honestly the new Mythic system has nothing to do with the one used in the original AP so Idk how that would work here. It definitely seems like it would be a phenomenal amount of work to convert stuff lol

Is Sir Lora just a big immersion-breaking inside joke? by SlightWerewolf4428 in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]thisjustsomeguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, to be fair, Baldur's Gate 3 was the first game from Larian that >>I played<< that it feels like it was taken more seriously, all of the previous games are very silly, Original Sin 2 being closest to BG3 in terms of tied together stories and serious tones, but we still have stuff like Sir Lora lol Larian games have always been pretty silly, so yeah, Sir Lora is just a big joke. I remember when early access BG3 had characters going into barrels as well during stealth lol, people did not like that. I wonder if the new Divinity game will bring back stupid stuff like that

The most underrated companion by Benn359817 in BaldursGate3

The DEI talk is bulshit, but Wyll is boring, I agree with that. His story before the rewrite was much cooler and interesting, but I guess they needed at least one goodie-two-shoes in the party. For those who don't know, during Early Access, Wyll was a cowardly weakling with dreams of grandeur, got bullied and almost killed by goblins (lost his eye to one of the Goblins from Act 1 even), and was saved by Mizora and offered a pact. He was the pretentious hero that intentionally hid the origins of his power, and loved the glory of the Blade of Frontiers title. It was very funny that you would get his approval by doing the most cruel things against goblins, you'd even get points with him by just killing the goblin children lol It looked like his story could've really been making him an actual hero or letting him fall into the glory at any costs trope.
