I've been slowly working my way through MOTHER 3 for the first time in about a decade, specifically with the intent of studying it for my own project, and it's definitely a different experience in my 30s?

Different parts hit different and I see a lot more nuances that I didn't pick up on when I was younger?

Also- Porky is SIGNIFICANTLY creepier to me as an antagonist now that I've actually matured a bit myself? And I don't mean that in a bad way at all, but he's characterized with a very fascinating blend of adult and childish traits that makes him... really unsettling ngl-

#also realizing that Lucas and Gyiyg are foils #earthbound #mother 3 #(Porky is still a phenomenal character imo- but he definitely feels more.... villainous to adult me vs teen me?)#(also- not getting into the fact hes a literal canonical fascist dictator...)#(i... see a lot of parallels between him and Trump ngl)#(which... just makes Porky all the more scary to me)#(also the whole thing with Locria siding with the fascists... only to be thrown away as soon as they weren't usful anymore?)#(Very 'why are the leopards eating MY face' coded)
