These are my thoughts on Mother from Shigesato Itoi!

I think my favorite thing about Mother 1 is that it's very clear in this game that Gigyas is a product of parental neglect. A child whose own kind doesn't have time to raise him is raised by two surrogate parents, only to feel betrayal when his surrogate father uses him for power and then abandons him. And the only way his rage is quelled is by remembering that his surrogate mother genuinely loved him. Because of this I think it's a strength that Gigyas isn't introduced till near the end of the game, as it reflects the difficulty a neglected child has in expressing their emotions. We don't know why all these bad things are happening until someone who loved the child Gigyas explains it to us, and Gigyas himself only opens up about his pain when he is reminded that he is loved. For me, this sincerely enhances Gigyas's story in Mother 2. Instead of just being an Eldritch horror beyond comprehension, Mother 1 gives us context as to how he got to this point. The only person who ever loved him is gone, and his own kind only care about the power he has. And he has unfathomable power, but that power is nothing compared to love, the love he once knew as a small child in the arms of a mother who would sing him to sleep.

I accidentally made my way to Youngstown and Ellay immediately after getting Loid, and I think it made for a better experience. Teddy could take out most enemies in a couple hits, so the egregious random encounters weren't a hassle to deal with.

PIZZA WAS WHAT I ENTERED FOR NINTEN'S FAVORITE FOOD WHEN I PLAYED THE GAME ON NSO. You have good taste.

I love Mother its such a great game with amazing story telling for an 8 bit game. It genuinely makes me sad when you see Nintens Grandpas grave and realize his grandmother doesnt truly exist, such amazing world building

Thank you so much for taking such a deep look at this game. I feel like so many people gloss over it because Earthbound does much of what this game does, but better. It doesn't deserve to be forgotten just because of what came after it.

You put a ton of work into these. You deserve a lot more views. Subbed

Super interesting retrospective on the first game in the series! I just barely started my first playthrough of Earthbound a couple months ago, so I'm still a newbie to this franchise. I seriously doubt I have the patience to actually play this game myself, so it was great to hear your experience, the highs and the lows. I always like looking at the origins of a series so you can better appreciate the future entries. I'm gonna try and beat Earthbound in time for your next vid. Great job with this one as always!

I feel like the clay models are the coolest part of the mother games and Iâm glad you mentioned them here they are just so cool

The running option in the mother localization was just a feature of the Japanese mother debug mode that they intentionally implemented for the NTSC release of mother

Some corrections on important dates that I mention: EarthBound came out in 1995 in North America, not 1994. EarthBound released on the Wii U Virtual Console in 2013, not 2014.
