More Flaws of Earthbound

Moving on, I think I'll address some more flaws that I have found in Earthbound.....and uhh I found flaws in the articles section......NOBODY (with the exception of a few and let me stress the word few) writes any articles! If you are reading this...get the blood in your pointer fingers rushing and type something. I took that advice in the Crunch Chronicles and it's true! Articles are easy to write! Now lets see....

1. Ever notice how you'll see a person in a town and then see him/her again in the next town? You have to say to yourself....I just saw that school kid in Onett, Twoson, Threed, Fourside.... The programmers could have created other charcters instead of just using a small amount of them and planting them in every town. I find it annoying when you walk into a drugstore and see those same 2 people at the register. So in conclusion one of two things has happened to make sense of this multi-character catastrophe: Dr. Andonuts has cloned the good citizens willing to give up a piece of hair for $$$,or these people all belonged to families in which 25 identical babies were born.

2. I admit that I have lied. Instead of using a topic that I said I was going to in my previous article, I think I'll try a new one. "My Sanctuary"......yeah we all know them as those points located around the planet that produce power that Ness records. Fightin enemies to get to them...WAIT!! Fighting enemies......why? Giant Step could easily be reached by use of helicopter, as many others can be. Magnet Hill....jump over the wall around it Ness. Instead of risking your life fighting these powerful beasts, why not take a back door enterance? For a boy with incredible mind power...he's not very bright.

3. Carrying items.....another flaw. How is it possible for some Ness to fit that much stuff in his backpack? I could see having all your items being cookies, but when you're lugging around baseball bats, equipted items.......heh I just realized something. If Ness is equipting an item he is wearing it (the clothes at least) so why does the item still take up room in his bag? Paula, Jeff, and Poo carry as many items as Ness, Where do they keep them? No Paula's purse does not count...you try fitting 5 super bombs and 3 multi-bottle rockets into a bag smaller than your arm. Jeff must use his pockets....ahh it all makes sense now, he's fitting gaia beams and pizzas inside those things. But most credit goes to Poo.. He doesn't have anywhere to put any items!! Carries them on his back.....you don't even see it. One more point about items. Even though Teddy Bears technically follow you, it still takes up a slot in your inventory.

More flaws next time. And remember......Write Articles!!!!!!!!!!!
