EarthBound is a great RPG, designed by Shigesato Itoi in 1994-1995, and is also known by the name Mother 2.
It is best described as "random", in a good way. The game has a great emphasis on a humor, and indeed many things in the game are almost caricatured, from subplots to characters. It also has a versatile soundtrack.
Although this being a speedrun (tool-assisted at that), most of the plot of the game is intact, making this movie very entertaining to watch even as a TAS.
Unlike the previous "in bounds" movie, which aimed for a glitchless route, this TAS does incorporate some glitches while never using any that put the player out of bounds.

Hello, I'm A. My favorite food is A, and I really love A. I also have three friends, a girl named A, a mechanical genius named A, and a prince from another kingdom named A.
You have a pet ?
@@cofivibi Yes, I have a beloved dog named A.
Anything you enjoy eating?
@@3_mld Yes, a nice delicious plate of A.
No way! I love eating A too! I also have a friend named A, A, A, and have a dog named A! We’re so alike. I also really love A :)
I guess that's why it's called "Earthbound" since you're staying within the bounds of the Earth during this playthrough.
Majestic discovery 👏🏻👏🏻
You found the true potential of this game
Otherwise it's called "Outofbounds".
Love when a game is so commonly broken in speedruns they have to make a new catagory for the intended boundaries.
lol seriously. This and Zelda 2.
Hero named A, friends named A, dog named A. Such overwhelming creAtivity from the player.
Missed chAnce to cAll the word named "nAmed"
my fAvorite food? A
his fAvorite thing is Also A
I love some good ol heavily RNG-manipulated RPG
I thought it was funny that the "Diamond Dog" got diamondized. I didn't even know that the Feeling Strange status effect could do that. I knew automatically fainting an enemy was possible, but... didn't know diamondized was possible for enemies. Kind of strange to see a boss fight saying "YOU WON!" with the enemy just standing there permanently frozen.

I intentionally broke my rule for the Kraken bc no one wants to watch a 1:30 cutscene consisting only of a sprite moving across a background
2:22:20 : Diamondizing Diamond Dog defeats him?! That's simultaneously astonishing and, yet, completely what I'd expect from Earthbound.
me when 4 words that start with d in a row
Its extremely rare for it to happen. You have to use Prayer and hope you get the heaven-rending sound, then you have to hope he hits himself, he chooses his Diamond Bite attack and that the Diamondization chance actually procs.
1:24:08 That is insane
Off the fucking chain
2:22:13 "Diamond Dog was diamondized!"
If only that happened a few seconds later, the "WHAT" meme would've fit perfectly there
Earthbound Dev 1: maybe we should make the diamond dog immune to being diamondized . . .
Earthbound Dev 2: you want to make it so the DIAMOND DOG cannot be made into diamond?
Earthbound Dev 1: yeah let's leave it how it is
Holy crap, I'm finally old enough to understand what the Stoic Club is talking about.
Me too! Started playing when I was 11. Now I'm past 21 and a half years old
The Everdred fight is a bit horrifying when you think about it. He stands there grinning the whole time while a child pummels him with a baseball bat.
I am curious why they do that fight. Isn't it optional?
@@nathanshumway3909 It is optional. According to the submission notes, it's to get the $200 for Apple Kid.
That Diamond Dog fight…perfection.
I love how Everdred keeps a big grin on his face, especially as you’re smashing his teeth in
I didn't even know there was a unique sound effect for equipping something in battle.
It's not. What's happening is that it's playing the player move (when a party member's chosen action is up) sound, then gets interrupted by the equip sound. Since both sounds are similar, they sound great when put together; as if it were intentional.
7:24 opening meteorite sequence ends
Thanks. It's a TAS but still very scripted.
Thank you kind stranger
Thank you!
I didn't expect there to be any major skips "inbounds", but the entire first major boss was skipped by somehow sneaking past the cops at the Onett exit.
I think it’s called an “overflow” or something like that. I think what happens is the player made a bunch of crap appear in the area and caused one of the roadblocks to completely disappear.
@@Marsuru1The game cannot load more than 22 objects at once, so, by spawning a lot of other objects, the barrier cannot be loaded.
@@helloworldmasteredmusic You explained it way better. Thanks, man!
@@Marsuru1 You're welcome :)
Here we go this is gonna be good
2:21:52 wow, killing Diamond doggy by using self hurts to diamondizing was very clever
I love the irony of it.
W H A T.
The Paula crit OHKO on Frankystein was *chef's kiss*
I can’t believe u skipped the starman boss fight in the beginning I actually thought I missed it
7:24 and so A just stands in front of his friends house all night mourning his bee friend
This was really interesting to watch. I knew about a lot of these skips, but the diamond dog was a surprise. The RNG manipulation on this is just nuts.
In all the times I've played Earthbound, I never really used Skip Sandwiches, so at 2:34:04 when they eat one in the Cave of the Past, its pretty funny to hear their walking sound sped up, and more specifically, see the sprites tweak the heck out.
That diamond dog battle was hilarious
Ness : I Save the World on 3 HOURS!
Ness: Without Walking over Wall
(i normally dont like Speaking Like This but did it cause consistency)
“TAS originally published on 2022-01-29” 👀
?????????????
Watching this, I didn't realize you could defeat the diamond dog by deflecting it's diamondization back at it, and that the sprite doesn't vanish when you do it that way. That fight was always a hard one for me. It's crazy to see how speedrunners do stuff like that.
I've gotten that kill, but I did it with Brainshock. The hilarious thing is that Diamond Dog isn't even weak to Brainshock; Poo just won the coinflip.
That moonside npc manipulation my goodness.
1:39:08 What a way to beat the Kraken lmao
i love the group A,A,A,A
This was such a treat to view! I’m curious: when you’re afflicted by heatstroke, does the flash of red consume the entire screen, or are A and his friends still visible on that frame with a red background?
It's just a single completely red frame, with nothing else visible.
ness has been screwing with dr andonuts to see how fast he can complete his journey it seems (also I love how poo is very late returning back to the party)
“A caught a whiff of A, but just for a second.” 1:28:18
Could mean anything.
I see this in every Mother TAS, what's the purpose of pausing every couple of moments? Does it reset some kind of cycle?
Rng manipulation to stop enemies from spawning.
In fact, RNG determines smash attacks, damage, pray effects, enemy attacks (in case they sre not scripted), enemy spawn points, actions, and item drops, NPC movement, among other things.
Que hermoso juego me gusto tanto que lo pase tanto en la snes vieja, en la pc y mi cel, solo me quede con ganas de pasar el mother 1 pero nunca tuve la oportunidad de jugarlo,,
3:19 anybody notice the stepping syncs with the knocking
I'd love to hear a commentary about the more interesting parts of the TAS. So far I wonder why the Everdred fight happened, since I thought it was optional. Also, how does the deep darkness boss get skipped?
Wait don't you have to take king with you at the start?
nope. totally optional.
damn i thought tutelarfiber's inbounds tas was really impressive while watching it side by side with halamantariel / nitrodon's tas :o
Earth-in-Bound
Yeah, so satisfatory man!!!
Hello I just played Earthbound recently. It was my first time playing it. My little brother had got me to play it. Undertale was inspired by it's quirky Ness. ;)
Oh! I forgot to mention I beat the game and got the sword of kings 🤴
The creator of Undertale is a huge Earthbound fan, and was an Earthbound modder / rom hacker for a long time, I remember reading his name on the Starman forums back in the day
@Schrunkley evil version mannnn ngl I debugged it and then got it afterwards. I was soooo angry.
Youre a fiery dog and a kid is shooting blinding lasers at you: *panik*
You've turned yourself in to reflective and durable diamond: *calm*
You've turned yourself into reflective and durable diamond: *panik*
Do... Do they just skip the master puke fight at 1:50, and they never get poo (sorry, A) back until ness wakes up?
Yup, that is just ridiculous, Poo just shows up as if nothing was wrong.
1:50:00?
It took me 5 hours to make it to Mr.Carpainter’s battle lol
huh, wait, what was that thing that let ness just leave onett?
according to author notes, a sprite overflow glitch allowed him to remove part of the barricade normally preventing you from progressing too early
I too, enjoy a bit of A
I want if this (and Earthbound Beginnings) come to Nintendo Switch, just like Mother 1+2 on Gameboy Advance (but that game came out only in Japan)
It’s never gonna happen
your wish came true tiday
today**
This aged well
@@PoopBrimmer6372 hooray
You can leave without King?!
1:44:28 this was absolutely on purpose
What is?
I just finished the game
Paula in the last fight (in the 5/9 pray turns) had like 150hp and everyone else was dead
Is it always like that or am I just lucky
Cause the tas here is in the same situation
Stick a Sea Pendant and Franklin Badge on Paula and, as long as she's still standing when Pokey turns off the Devil's Machine, the final boss is an eventual guaranteed win.
Awesome! :D
Peaceful
It took me so long to realize that you can paralyze pokey in the giygas fight he doesn't do it in the run I just tried one time and made the fight so easy
Excellent tas bro 😏👉👉
Il est Earth !
Pray OP
Diamond Dog moment
1:18:26
"A, A,
A and A,"
DAT KRAKEN FIGHT
Almost 100k rerecords? Wow
If you're going to make or watch a multi hour tas, you must expect lots of rerecords
Anyone know th re-record number?
Who’s the girl in the intro card for the video?
I forget her name, but she's the heroine of Iconoclasts, a game by the one who drew her. It's a Metroidvania, IIRC.
@@VonFirflirch Her name is Robin
A
Why does it keep flashing red throughout the video?
Sunstroke
Red flash means a status effect is damaging you. In this case it is sunstroke, which is subtracting 4HP each time.
i keep wondering why tas always smash
Well its Tool Assisted, meaning EVERYTHING you see in the game is manipulated. So the chances of the smash hits are also manipulated.
A used PSI A a!
Is it mother game?
it is mother game.
Yes

First also hi
Holy shit it's the prequel to undertale :0
yeah, it’s a shame ness loses his skin and organs after time traveling and defeating giygas, but i guess i am just glad he is alive and keeps his sense of humor. i also like that he took one of the starman from the cave of the past back with him, (it unfortunately lost its skin too), and adopted it as his little brother. happy skeleton relationship all around! :D
no
Cringe.
@@Flamsterette look up the definition of a joke
@@paws9248 yep
*This is cheating.*
Bro is stuck in 2005-2009 💀 TASing isnt cheating.
