I 100%'d Mother 3. It was Heartbreaking. 

My only knowledge of Lucas before was that you can play him in Smash Bros… I was not prepared to be absolutely DEVASTATED by the end of this video 😭

am i the only one that remembers the minute long video seanie posted of this game a couple days ago?

This game is amazing But the main thing I learned from this game is that duster is an absolute champion. Broken leg and still does backflips and stuff bro

No one in chat told him the "Don't Care" option puts the canon name for the characters?

I cant tell if he actually genuinley didnt know how to pronounce the magypsies name or if he was purposefully mispronouncing it to avoid saying the slur in their name, and i cant decisw which is funnier

I love how one of his speculations was correct, despite "remembering" details that never existed. Classic example of "Using the wrong formula and getting the correct answer", lmao.

A SEANIE VIDEO ABOUT ONE OF MY FAVOURITE GAMES?? this game is a gem and it’s such a shame that it’s not officially translated ):

Seanie in the small chance you see this: I absolutely love your content and I think (?) you're primarily a Stardew Valley creator but I'm around for all your other content, not the Stardew stuff so if you need any motivation to keep killing it with your indie game stuff and now this amazing Mother 3 retrospective, this is it: Keep making new, experimental stuff, you're incredible!

I don't know if you've ever played Earthbound (Otherwise known as Mother 2) but if you've enjoyed Mother 3 I super suggest it and for anyone else interested in the Mother series. This game has been in the back of my mind to play, but due to it being a JP exclusive for almost 20 years its put me away from playing it. Knowing there's fan translations and they're this wonderful, while experiencing this joy of a game, makes me feel at ease into going into playing it at some point in the future.

I loved this!!!! The storyline really interesting, and some of the twists got me…. As someone who had never seen/heard of the game, I would totally watch more of these types of play throughs!

This might reactivate my Mother 3 hyperfixation, idk tho. Edit: It did, and 2:26:20 made me break and cry. I forgot how much this game runs you over like a truck. I'm so grateful that this story exists.

Even Seanie's expression through those last twists wasn't enough to keep me from sobbing through the end, ouch.

As Duster, It would make me quite happy if people in other countries could officially play my game.

I know this wasn’t on purpose (and I haven’t finished the video yet) but I love that he pronounces it Magi Sies instead of the slur that the word actually contains 😂

Okay Seanie, I see you. Mad respect for this.

Fun fact: if at the point where the game ends, if you navigated using the buttons, you would notice that Lucas is still moving and is able to talk to other characters you met through the story line, triggering the end cast scene, confirming the fact that they did survive the pulling of the last needle.

what did we do to deserve a two and a half hour long seanie video (in a good way)

Loved this game when I first watched Chugga play it forever ago and I loved it more after playing it myself. Even after all these years I still cry at the end.

God, this game still ripping my heart into shreds! What a masterpiece of a game. I glad Seanie played this.

YESSSS this game is one of my favorites of all time. love the long format, i definitely wouldn't mind more vids like this in the future! i would even watch the full 30 hour playthrough tbh

Petition for Seanie to perform Wess' dance from 31:00

watching this while fishing in stardew in the background and it is incredibly painful how whenever he swears the fishing bobber sound plays

shigesato itoi was up in the studio cooking the most deviously well-made story in history 😈😈😈

It took me to the end to realize that Claus and Lucas are anagrams

Side note now that i've seen it all, you might understand more about porky if you play mother 2

I think this is my favorite video of yours. It's just really nice to go on this journey with you as someone who also was unfamiliar with this story.

This game made me cry. Glad you played it Seanie

fun fact! the names of the family around 20m in are all derived from musical modes :-)

I wasn’t expected this to both be as good as it was and also to make me CRY AS HARD AS IT DID. tysm for playing this game this was an amazing video 😭🙏

The sheer amount of trauma on this mans face is wild... also, you do GREAT voices for all the characters! I love it! very well done! 😊

i'd really love to see more stuff like this on your channel! i adore your stardew content of course but i really enjoyed this and i would love to see the other games you love too (:

I’ve heard of this game but never seen it! I was so invested and loved it so much😭😭 and your commentary just made it better

Mother 3 is one of my favorite games of all time. It needs way more recognition. Thanks for this video! It's great to see someone react to this masterpiece for the first time.

This is one of my favorite games. I started the whole Earthbound series with this game, the last in the trilogy. I wish I could recommend it to friends, but they prefer not to use roms. If you have the chance to play this game, do it. The whole thing is filled with this energy that games nowadays rarely have. Every moment was beautifully crafted, and I hope one day it will be considered by all as the greatest game ever made.

I haven’t seen anyone play this in years! I cried my eyes out! Thanks seanie!

"flit" "dustr" "boey" truly perfect just perfect

I've played this game 4 times and the ending still gets me in tears

WAHHHH this was so good, I have loved Mother 3 for a very long time and it makes me so happy to see people experiencing it. I'm so glad you enjoyed it !! ♥

It's great to see someone play this game fresh again... if you want Context to Porky you should play Earthbound, it explains him a bit more

Time to spend the next three hours watching this! I'm excited, and this game looks awesome!!!

I love mother 3 and i love seanie this is awesome thank you seanie this is my one of my fav games

Absolutely love this game to death. After playing though Earthbound I wasnt expecting a darker tone so I plugged in my families/friends names for everyone and boy was that heartbreaking. This game really makes you feel for the whole Nowhere islands and the tragedy that befalls upon it. Especially what happens with Claus (being a twin makes it 10x worse). I still remember experiencing it for the first time. It was during a car ride home and I yelled no so loud that it shocked my mom. This game with forever have a place in my heart and one of the few stories that I always hope have a better future after the ending. Thank you for letting me experience this wonderful game again!

I mostly know you from your stardew valley content, but this is a nice surprise. Mother 3 is my favorite video game, and I look forward to watching this full thing.

This game needs a port I will do anything

this was a crazy video. such a beautiful game and so many plot twists omg

Played this game every year since 7th grade i recently graduated good memories i remember sitting in class playing this game on my school laptop while i was supposed to be doing my work hope they make a full on remake this game took up countless hours of my life glad too see people still play it

it annoys me that this has way less views that a lot of your other videos. this was such a good playthrough! everyone needs to watch this gem

Never knew you would play earthbound…. I’m so happy!!! And I never played/watched mother 3 so this will be my first time! Wth was that psi learning cutscene…. Ok just finished the video. I cried 😭

It is a crime that this video only has 40k views. 2 and a half hours?! You've outdone yourself Seanie!

Nintendo wants us to forget all their old quality games because the stuff they're releasing nowadays doesn't quite compare to that and they know it.

All I can think to say is thank you for making this video. NOT TO BE DRAMATIC OR ANYTHING but this game changed my life forever. Thank you for playing it

LOVE IT , best RU-vidr❤❤

So my favorite sdv youtuber plays a mother game. It is with my full desire that you play mother 2/earthbound because it really is one of my favorites!

Goddammit it makes me sad this video has such low views compared to the stuff I usually see recommended from your channel, this is genuinely one of my favorite games and I’m so excited to see you play it!!! Not that terraria and Stardew and whatnot aren’t also great fun games but yknow what I mean

2:32:22 I think if you enjoyed this game, you'd really enjoy Oneshot, if you haven't already played it. I'd love to watch you play that one, it's gotta be one of my favorite games of all time.

I'm probably never going to play this game (and no desire to) But I have admired the series from afar so watching these type of videos is very entertaining. And I get to view the story alongside these gameplays

You should definitely play earthbound, it'll give you more knowledge on who Porky was + it's also a good game

dude that game is so sad 😭 your whole playthrough made me cry 😭😭😭

I guess I'll have to say it myself... Seanie is so mother for this 💅

Gosh dangit! As much as I want to watch this, I'll have to wait until I play the game myself. 😔 I loved Earthbound and have been hoping with all the additions they've been adding to the online retro consoles, they'd localize it. This might just be my motivation to play a fan translated version of it. 👀

MOTHER 3 is my favorite game of all time. genuinely one of the only games that has made me cry multiple times

Never though seanie would cover one of my favourite games but here we are Respect 👊

Hi Seanie I love your videos

1:56:05 chapter things all things

I know it's too late but if you hit Don't Care, the first name it gives you is actually the canon names haha

DARN IT! Even after knowing what happens and everything... I still cried at the end. Just...that damn line. "Come to your mother. You must be so exhausted."

I have watched this whole video, and now I love Mother 3. A truly great story told very well.

i really want Seanie to play Earthbound Beginnings and Earthbound now (also I'm sad he didn't talk about the battles more cuz thr combat is one of the more cooler parts in earthbound games)

10 years later, this game still makes me cry

OMG this game it's gorgeous!! I love it

I LOVE MOTHER 3!!!!! THE GAME EVER!!!!!!! (I would edit my other comment but I lost it and I’m too lazy to find it) I LOVE seeing people’s live reactions to this masterpiece of a game, thank the translation team who made the ROMs, truly the people ever!!! I love this game.. it’s so interesting, and unused content and stuff in the files is also interesting. (also the OST SLAMS I cri everytime) I am normal about this game. Im pretty sure the mushroom acid trip part represents Lucas’s mentality at the time, and is actually kind of a clever way to do so, rather than just playing yet another scrolling text cutscene.

I really love this long form style content from you. but seriously... why'd it have to be called PK NUTS?!

This game is in mt top 3 favorite games of all time. I cry every time i play it, the story and characters are amazing.

wanting to stay true to the characters names but not at all doing that is my favorite part of this video

seanie. thank you so much.

I'd love to see the full uncut version

Good lord first folding ideas now you dropping 2+ hour videos on me

i’m so excited !!!

WHAT MOTHER 3 VIDEO???? I LOVE YOU

loved the bon voyage singing((

also that tree you love, loves to explode

Fuzzy pickles? Sacred stone?

If you havent already, seeing as you loved this game so much, I'd recommend playing Omori. It tackles similarly dark themes while having that traditional turn based rpg gameplay. It's truly an amazing experience.

Insert Zero's line: "WHAT AM I FIGHTING FOR???!!!"

The frog drives better than most people

you should really play earthbound at some point, you get back story about Porky and imo it does a great job of not excusing but explaining why he was the way he was

fun fact: the mecha drago is missing its left fang *GUESS WHY.*

So technically since the Magypsies are neither man nor woman does that mean they're nonbianary? :D

I know this is an old video but I know he’s not gonna time his hits to the beat.

We must spread the love of the mother series

god this brought me memories of my childhood

1:44:29 that's the sound of Seaniedew's sanity dropping (the edit is that I had the wrong time) another edit: Seanie with the small chance that you see this if it isn't too much trouble could you also play Earthbound/Mother 2? Thank you very much if you do :)

Fun fact: this game was originally meant for the n64 DD(disk drive) but do its failure it was cancelled. But fortunately the game was eventually made for the gba

Seeing you not use the rhythm mechanic was painful though 😂

13:05 Foreshadowing..

Did you play earthbound/mother 2 before this? it gives insight on some of the characters here.

this is my favorite game 😭

This is awesome woo earthbound sequel yea

0:34 "How about this instead?"

To be fair, Lighters house wasn’t always burning
