ff7 takes itself way too seriously and earthbound is probably the most charming JRPG out there there isn't much to the battle system but if you don't like animu melodrama then you'll probably like earthbound's tone

a game featuring crossdressing and a bitchslap fight definitely takes itself too seriously

Mother 3 had a bunch of pacing problems for like the first half of the game that made it a ton harder to get into than Earthbound. Like the first 10 hours is consumed by mostly disjointed jaunts to unrelated locations and typically getting to these locations is painful and awful. I've tried to pick it up 3 times now and inevitably by the time I hit the Chimera Factory I'm so bored and disconnected from the story that it's a chore to play anymore. The story is great and the writing is fantastic and hosed straight the hell up when it's firing, but in between hits from the story bong you have some of the most colossal bullshit.

Best part of FF7 is wandering around the strange pre-rendered backgrounds. Midgar looks cool and places like the Ancient City, Forest Temple and Northern Cave achieve a weird serendipity with the angular surreal environments and the goofy MIDI music. Earthbound is definitely superior though.

yeah mother 3 has like seven genderfucked characters that actually matter and are a big part of the plot instead of walking homo jokes so that's p cool. mother 3 just has tons of incredibly well-done poo poo in it. it's really well written and fun but for some reason i can't actually play it for very long. might have something to do with how railroady it is

it isnt a jrpg but there's actually a charming sequence in neverwinter nights 2 where your group of hard living and hard fighting adventurers gets smashed at a bar and spends most of the evening trading insults at eachother, to the point that the manly man dwarf and the wiry little demon chick (who normally hate eachother pretty bad) are actually getting along because they're dropping suitably sick burns on eachother.
