Author Topic: I just cried over my first video game.  (Read 916 times)

I just finished watching an LP of Mother 3, and my reaction to the ending was pretty surprising to me. Normally, I never get emotional over games or movies, but the storyline for Mother 3 was so well written. Damn.

Basicly, what happens is a bunch of weird people start invading the world that Lucas and Claus live in. Claus goes missing, and you spend the game trying to find him while preventing the "Dark Dragon" from being manipulated by the wrong hands. Turns out, your mortal enemy is Claus, and he kills himself, so he can be with Hinawa, who is Lucas's  and Claus's mother, who died pretty early in the game after being mauled by a Mecha Drago, a chimera made by the strange Pigmasks.

It's a very touching story, and I recommend if you ever get the chance to play it, you should.



But yeah, I finally cried over my first video game.
Hahaha, laugh at me sure, but there's always things that touch your soft spot. Such as a very well written story.

(also, if it belongs in games, it will be moved. deal w/ it.)

What the hell is it with this series. It's like a bunch of "cute" little kids but at the same time it's so abysmally dark.

Didn't this one have gigyas or something in it?

Sounds like the base to a Professor Layton Game.

Didn't this one have gigyas or something in it?
Gigyas was only in Mother and Earthbound.

speaking of crying, the ending to Nausica: valley of the wind is pretty sad.

I cried on Lock's Quest

When I was little, I cried over Winnie the pooh because I thought it was real. When pooh got stuck in the rabbit's doorway, my mom made me go to bed before I could finish the episode, so I thought pooh was stuck there forever.

Mother 1 : Giygas
Mother 2 : Giygas and Porky
Mother 3 : Porky

I'm seeing pattern here.

I have it translated.

It's a really great game for it's atmosphere; what really brought me to tears was Lucas' family being torn apart. Feels bad, man.

My soft spot is my ass :D
