Re: the EarthBound diary

Damn you, Loki. I never knew they had a real use.

Neither did I...

I beat the whole game without using one...

Re: the EarthBound diary

You think? Is it obvious what I'm making fun of?

I haven't played Earthbound, but I'm guess everyone stays in the back row except for Ness because Ness has an effective weapon until suddenly the guy in glasses gets a good weapon, then he gets bumped up to the first row, too??

Re: the EarthBound diary

I never played earthbound and I got it.

Re: the EarthBound diary

I always skipped over slingshots and yo-yos, too.

And I never took the For Sale sign because, well, it takes up a spot in your inventory.

WHAT DOES IT DOOOO

Re: the EarthBound diary

When you use the for sale sign a guy comes up to you and you can sell him things. A good money trick that takes a while is to buy an egg and then let it grow into a chicken and sell it.

Jeff becomes the man with his broken machines. Hungry HP sucker? don't mind if I do.

Re: the EarthBound diary

I got my mushroom hacked off for 50 bucks, talked to the hotel guy for 50 bucks (nothing lost, nothing gained!), learned Paula's kidnapped somewhere and went to Burglin Park. Is there anything else I should buy besides the For Sale sign?

Um... the healer PAYS you 50 bucks for the mushroom. You make a profit.

Use the For Sale sign and it will attract a customer ANYWHERE. It's invaluable in dungeons when you want to open a present but you don't have any inventory space. Then you can sell that cookie instead of just throwing it away.

Re: the EarthBound diary

Exit mice are good too. But most of the time the dungeons you get them in are the only ones you'd need to use them.

Yo-yos and slingshots are horrible weapons. They're three times as likely to miss as a bat or a frying pan. And Poo's Offense goes DOWN when he equips one.

Also, I'd say Jeff ends up more powerful(offensively) than Ness. Multi Bottle Rockets.

Re: the EarthBound diary

Comparing Earthbound to Mother 3 is like comparing Granny Smith apples to Red Delicious.

YOU CAN'T DO IT.

Re: the EarthBound diary

Nope, it just makes the sting all the more bitter.

Re: the EarthBound diary

Got to Happy Happy Village after running away from UFOs, angry trees and evil diamonds flying around. Pheeewwww.

So I bought an egg for $1 - at the pay-what-you-want stand that the Riddler guards - and after a few minutes I hear peeping. What the ****? I check my inventory and the egg hatched!! {{:3 I take an earlier poster's advice, wait for it to become a chicken and sell it to some bearded guy for a $110. Sweeeeet.

Some lady gave me a postcard for a donation. It makes me sad and empty. Does this postcard do anything or is it needlessly filling up a slot in my items? I got so much **** in there (exit mouse, ruler, equipment, an extra travel charm) I only have 2 or 3 spaces left for healing items.

Well, I guess I oughtta hit up Mr. Carpainter and rescue Paula.

**** THE ENTIRE BUILDING'S FILLED WITH BLUE KLANSMEN

Re: the EarthBound diary

Earthbound zero also known as Grinding forever.

I most certainly preferred earthbounds end to mother 3 over all.

Re: the EarthBound diary

Re: the EarthBound diary

Did everyone get their panties all twisted up and leave you pm and rep!?

Also I think it's funny Gloomy is pushing so hard for his own drawing to be an emote or something.

In regards to Earthbound, I've tried playing it like three times and each time forgot about it.
