“Listening to this was like receiving a belated Christmas present!
The production values and vocal deliveries were immaculate; the hosts' prowess over this medium was immediately made plain to see (or rather, hear.) I had assumed that the "diary" in question would be written from your point of view as a player. That angle would surely have been serviceable, but I was delighted to be greeted with a serialized audio drama adaptation, whose events are grippingly recounted by a charmingly characterized Ninten. I dare say this is the best auditory retelling of a MOTHER game since "Fobbies are Borange".
Speaking of Starmen.net, I was excited by Cat's experience as a veteran of the website’s heyday. No doubt she have amassed over many years a great deal of talking points pertaining to MOTHER and the community that blossomed around it. And what a better person to compliment a series “oldhead” and balance out the podcast than a (relative) newcomer! I look forward to hearing Jess’s reactions to the games, especially in the case of the divisive first installment.
In spite of their differing histories with MOTHER, it is clear to me that the two of them are both astute and erudite individuals. They really have their fingers on the pulse of the games, and I admire the duo's capacity to relate them to other works of art and note their possible intertextuality. Among the podcast’s highlights were the moments in which the impressionistic storytelling at hand was highlighted, evoking what could not be portrayed within the technological limits. I was already aware of Itoi’s desire to answer the question of, “If Steven Spielberg created an RPG, what would it be like?” but hadn't considered how readily certain scenes in the game lend themselves to cinematic adaptation. It’s great stuff, and I hope they continue to make such intriguing observations.
This will go down in my book as one of the great projects to come out of the MOTHER community. Best of luck for this 11/10 podcast!”Read full review »

“So far I love the podcast I’m only on the second episode, but if any of you guys have listened to Nightingale, then I think that you guys will agree with me because the black cloud over the mountain I think that it’s the darkness not sure but maybe. Also this game seems like a very weird game ...”Read full review »
