Episode 5 - On to Thanksgiving - Let's Play Mother: 25th Anniversary Edition [Blind]
21In this episode of Let's Play Mother we stumble our way through Magicant, lose one of our good friend Flying Man, discover a sleeping dragon, and forget an Onyx Hook... all to finally get to Thanksgiving! What awaits us here?
Mother: 25th Anniversary Edition is a hack of the original Mother 1 game (or Earthbound Zero) developed by DragonDePlatino. The goal of this modification is to make Mother more accessible to new players. The patch is applied to the original Mother / Earthbound Zero ROM that had been dumped from a prototype cartridge that was originally translated by Nintendo but never officially released in North America (until very recently under the name "Earthbound: Beginnings").
This Mother / Earthbound Zero patch redesigned the title screen, redrew every enemy sprite to be more faithful to their clay counterparts, redesigned the world map, redid all the sprites and tiles, and made the world map less scarce of details. The patch also boosted the XP gain and balanced the battle difficulties to make the game more accessible and a bit less grindy.
Furthermore, the patch uses Tomato's official translation of Mother 1+2 (same person who did the fan translation for Mother 3).
