So, I beat Earthbound Beginnings earlier today, for the second time ever I think, if we count the not so legal ways of doing things. Third, if we count the GBA version with fan translation. Anyway, fantastic game. I truly love the final battle, which, while not as impressive (and certainly not as disturbing) as the one in Earthbound, is pretty touching, I think. How they sing the lullaby to Giegue/Giygas and all that. The song itself being so beautiful helps too. Just gets better for every time I hear it.
But anyway, the game wasn't quite as hard or grindy as I remember it being without the Easy Ring thing from the GBA fan mod. I only had two longer grinding sessions in the game, one at the very beginning while preparing for the cemetary quest, and one close to the end while exploring together with EVE, but in between that I only really went grinding in order to get newcomers to my party up a few levels so I wouldn't have to get them out of the hospital every five minutes. I suppose it's got a lot to do with me knowing where to go and what to expect, where to stay and fight for experience and where to avoid encounters, but apart from the poorly balanced Mt. Itoi I think everything went surprisingly well this time around. |
