I'm getting it *SQUEEE*
I actually wanted to start Earthbound first before playing this, but I figured I could as well start with Mother 1, since I haven't played any of the Mother games. Has any of you played the first game?
the first one isn't that great, imho. Just look up the story plot online.
I was confused about it at first too. Apparently you have to press the A Button in time with the beat of the current battle BGM. Apparently later on there's an item that lets you practice doing the combos against different enemies.Originally Posted by Dignified Pauper
Not quite. Each monster has a different sound rythem, the only way to hear it is to put them to sleep.
At least it is during Dusters Chapter, I stopped paying that much attention to it. But you would use dusters Hypno Pendalum, put them to sleep, and then here the beat.
I think in Boss battles its the BGM though, since some can't be put to sleep.
I will try my luck again in a little bit. Maybe it is emulator lag, because I sing and can find beats well, then again, rhythm is also my worse thing... so maybe i really do suck.
I heard that emulator lag will cause increased difficulty in utilizing the combo system. That may be the problem.
I finished this game over the weekend and I thought that the translation was done as professionally as an official release from Nintendo, so I think that it was worth the wait and I strongly support any translations from that team from this point forward.
I believe in the power of humanity.
I almost suggest that you should all go read through all the updates. I am seriously shocked at how amazingly done this was given the problems that came up with the hacking.
For starters, none of the original hackers on the project were around, and when they finally dropped off it they showed virtually no work had been done.
Then, Tomato, the translater on the project, was left to do most of the hacking. And he had virtually know hacking experience.
To top it off, many other known and established hackers for fan translations turned down his requests for help because of how much of a mess the games coding was.![]()
My computer doesn't have sound... so I guess I'm screwed until my sound card decides to work >_>
Did you try reinstalling your sound driver?
Happened to me the last two times Vista updated.![]()
I did about a month ago and it still didn't work, so I guess I will try again when I get the chance. But I have been playing it on my dad's computer and it's hard for me to believe this was a fan-translation. ^_^
chapter 4 spoilersDid it bother anyone else when Lucas met the Magyspies (sp) in the hot springs for the first time... uh... I mean... sounded suggestive to me.
