gotcha
i've reread some of the posts in this thread, and i'm surprised by how many people are still worshipping earthbound. i used to (THANKS STARMEN.NET) but it was blind faith. after a good conversation with PG i realized that it isn't that amazing. i then replayed it (after having played through twice) and somehow missed 3 sanctuary locations/bosses. the problem is, it lacks a good direction with the story. so far with mother3 there's a very constant direction (given that you play each chapter [SO FAR] from a different perspective, that i can't see how i would get lost
oh, and i recently STOPPED playing earthbound because i was poo and for some reason couldn't get my muu training going
so yeah fuck earthbound yay mother3
