Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

Why am I finding this kinda hard to get into so far? I'm at the fourth chapter, and the story really hasn't moved much since the first chapter. The gameplay is still as good as ever, but the plot is moving pretty slowly right now. It's a fun game, but it's not as fun as Earthbound was IMO.

So, when does the game (story-wise) start picking up?

I'd rather be outside.

Chapter 4 is when the game really starts to pick up steam, IMO. Stick with it, and soon you won't want to stop playing, even to eat.

This is basically the chapter when you get back all your party members. Things get interesting as you progress.

I'm liking the sounds of this.

Thanks for the answers.

Don't worry, no spoilers, but as the story progresses, you will progressively shit more and more bricks until you think that every plot twist conceivable has happened. And then there will be more brix after that, even.

Plot twists? Awesome, I love those.

Yeah, I know loads of people who didn't think great of Mother 3 until after Chapter 4. The first three chapters sort of set in the stone the stage/plot for the game. Just stick with it and you'll soon love it. =)

This is officially the third Mother 3 topic.

BTW, Delf, thank you so much for bringing the translation to my attention. This is still one of my most loved games.

Unfortunately, nobody who plays Brawl with me understands when I use Claus. =(

I sometimes use the Claus colors too.

I invariably use the Claus colors. It just feels right.

I'm about half way through chapter 7 now. I suppose the story has gotten a little bit better, but still not as amazing as everyone says it is. >_>

Keep going. Chapter 8 will make up for your disappointments in spades.

Adachi is not amused.

Or perhaps the game simply isn't for you. *shrug* Just because a lot of people like it, including all of us, doesn't necessarily mean you'll love it for the same reasons.

I've never heard of anybody being anything besides enthralled with the game during Chapter 7 during their initial playthrough. Are you reading the cutscenes? >.>

Of course, it just doesn't seem to be anything particularly special so far. Still a fun game regardless, and I still have the rest of the game to go.

Not to be pushy or disagree or anything, but if that doesn't present an impressive story to you, what does? I'm just curious.

Well, games like Xenosaga are what I'd call an example of a really good and engaging story.
