LET'S GO TO DALAAM. LET'S GO TO DUSTY DUNES DESERT. LET'S GO TO SUMMERS (is shot)
ANYWAY~! I've been spending today watching Chuggaaconroy's LP of Earthbound for the SNES. I really really really REALLY want to play that game >///< Unfortunately, it is not being released on Virtual Console due to multiple copyright infringements that weren't really an issue in the 90s but seem to be one now. DAMMIT NINTENDO
Anyone have an SNES and a copy of Earthbound they wouldn't mind me stealing borrowing?
Either way, I love this game so much. Personally, it's my favorite out of the Mother series (this is the second game). Mother was an okay game, I guess, but it was really short and not that interesting, honestly. Mother 3 is an AMAZING game, with a great storyline that had me crying (but what else is new). However, Mother 2 (Earthbound) stole my heart with witty dialogue and great characters. It's a lot more lighthearted than the other two games, though the final boss is said to be one of the most disturbing in video game history...and I kinda agree >///<
Of course, I haven't played any of these three games...I've only watched Chugga LP them...BUT I WOULD IF I COULD >///< Meh...
Anyways, I'd like to tell you a quick little story about Earthbound before I end this post. Now, before I watched it, I didn't support yaoi. It wasn't like I was a raging homophobe who hated gays and such cuz I wasn't--those kind of people tick me off big time. But I just wasn't a big fan of yaoi. WELL Earthbound has this main character whose name is Jeff. And he's the geeky, shy type who wears a bow tie around and is abosolutely adorable. He also has a best friend named Tony. Tony wears a cute little hat and is equally adorable. He was also confirmed to be gay by the creator of the game, though it's very VERY easy to tell anyway.
I fell in love with this pairing as soon as I saw it. Tony was so adorable, always worrying about Jeff and calling him and helping him whenever he could. I wanted to glomp both of them. They were so cute together, and then fan art and fanfics just boosted it, and I was like, "FINE. I SUPPORT IT. (collapse)"
And thus my obsession with yaoi pairings began...I don't think it was very long afterwards that I made my gay OC...
ANYWAYS after that probably really boring story you probably don't care about, I'm gonna sign off and keep watching. Tata~!
