I'll elaborate since you're not engaged yet.

Final Fantasy 7 is like the umpteenth attempt at a high fantasy JRPG with visuals that aged like milk and gameplay that ultimately is just a bore.

EarthBound 64 would have shook up the industry by eschewing the generic fantasy tropes Square had been peddling nonstop by having a totally original story with true pathos and wildly imaginative settings and scenario. For those of you who played Mother 3, I think you know what I mean. Imagine seeing the death of Klaus in 3D: Totally would mog the shitty and overrated "Aeris' death" scene that people keep bringing up to this day, some dumb healer whore that wasn't actually that interesting or well written. Klaus on the other hand is more personal since it's Lucas' goddamn brother and you see his transformation to soulless soldier in realtime just like Darth Vader.

It also has to be said that the mechanics they were planning on N64DD in terms of storytelling and moment-to-moment gameplay in battles would have been ambitious and also eat FF7's lunch.

Reply again with another "ok" like I know you will so you can bump the thread.

given how shit earthbound 0 and 3 are its a good chance earthbound 64 would've also been shit. 2 was the only one they got somewhat right and even then its got some serious issues

mother 3 is a niche game for a niche audience just off the virtue of the plot and narrative structure alone. FF7 would have fucking nuked it in both sales and critical appeal

You're a fucking autist and probably a tranny. Nobody gives a shit about Mother. If EB64 hadn't been canceled it would have been a Japan only release and flopped horribly, leaving no trace in history but a small contingent of spergs demanding its localization.
