Review Corner - Mother 3 (Earthbound 2)

The Mother series has been something of a cult following in the US. The sole entry released there was "Earthbound" for the SNES. The entire 3 entries were created by Shigesato Itoi, and each game loosely ties into one another.

The other 2 games in the series were so demanded that fans translated the original Mother for the NES and the Japan only Mother 3. (You can go here for more Mother 3 info and translation - http://mother3.fobby.net/ )

Mother 3 is reported to be the final entry in the series, and still maintains the stylized humor and fun that the series makes for using typical RPG tropes, and also making fun of them at the same time.

Parts of the Story - Introduction

Been a while since I have posted anything here. I apologize to any of my viewers. Life happens, things get busy and I occasionally lose track of a few projects and/or things I have to work on.

But I am going to try and update this regularly again, and I will start off with a series of how stories are put together and the variety of elements involved in the story itself.

For now I want to introduce the story, but first we should split the story down into segments that I will focus and elaborate one when I can find the time to get the articles up (I will try for a weekly/bi-weekly post, but I am not sure).
