Each character who dons the role of the main character for each part of the game are [[HeroicMime Silent Protagonists]], but the game fully acknowledges and shows you that when they're not in that role, they all speak normally like any other NPC and have their own personalities, including main protagonist Lucas. That being said, even while in this role, all of the characters still react to the situations around them and don't just act like a blank slate, such as when [[spoiler: Flint lashes out at the villagers after he finds out his wife is dead]] or when [[spoiler: Salsa starts crying because of the abuse Fassad puts him through.]] This is most notable with Lucas in particular, as his sensitive personality bleeds through his silent exterior during particular (especially emotional) moments of the game despite him being this, completely changing the formula that Ninten and Ness set before him. And lastly, the game deconstructs the ArtifactTitle that ''[[VideoGame/EarthBound1994 Mother 2]]'' brought to the series, by [[spoiler:having Lucas's own Mother be a focal part of the story through her death, and how that event sets the tone of the story and influences the actions of the characters from then on, as well as her role in the Finale.]] Overall, the world and setting are much more medieval and fantasy inspired than before, deconstructing the series to the point of bringing it back to more traditional EasternRPG roots like ''Franchise/FinalFantasy''. Which is to be expected, when you end up deconstructing a game series that is known for deconstructing the RPG Genre to begin with.

Just wanted to clarify that Lucas walking in on the Magyspy taking a hot spring bath isn't him being a pervert. In Japanese culture, you're supposed to bathe without your clothes on and it's heavily discouraged to bathe with clothing on. Also, the hot springs in the game are for any gender and person to use. Therefore, Lucas isn't being a pervert there either, as he's simply just walking in to bathe in the hot spring.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
I looked through Mother 3 and asked a knowledgeable friend about it and the Kumatora being nude in the hot spring didn't happen. Also, the other instance of covert pervert where Lucas walks into a Magyspy bathing in a hot spring isn't him being perverted either. In Japanese culture, people typically are not allowed to wear clothes in hot springs as I searched up online. The hot springs are also available for all genders to use, so it isn't him being intrusive here. He's simply just walking in to bathe in the hot spring.

Lucas walking towards the shower isn't the only way that makes Kumatora step out. If Lucas waits long enough, Kumatora will eventually exit the shower. She will also exit the shower if he walks near the hallway door. Therefore, he isn't being a pervert here as this is moreso the player's choice. I said something about on his character page.

''Mother 3'' is notable for its long development cycle (approximately the length of the already-long production of the previous title), having been planned almost immediately after ''Mother 2'' was released. Details began to surface of ''Mother 3'' as a UsefulNotes/{{Nintendo 64}} title -- as part of the now-failed Nintendo 64DD add-on -- and was even given the tentative worldwide title ''[=EarthBound=] 64'' before falling into {{vaporware}} territory (its earliest development predated ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever's'', which didn't surpass its time in DevelopmentHell until 2007). It was officially cancelled in 2000, but eventually resurfaced in 2003 and was finally released for the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance in 2006 -- apparently due to renewed interest while ''Mother 1+2'' was being worked on. However, Nintendo has yet to [[NoExportForYou release the game outside of Japan]], despite vocal campaigns of support for an international release. Lucas eventually saw international recognition [[MarthDebutedInSmashBros due to his inclusion in]] ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl''.
Nintendo would end up not releasing the game outside of Japan, as not only did ''[=EarthBound=]'' horrifically undersell in North America, but the GBA was also all but dead in North America and Europe by the time ''Mother 3'' released; by 2006, they had effectively stopped releasing first-party games for the system in Western markets in favor of focusing on the UsefulNotes/NintendoDS. In response, a project to create an English-language FanTranslation began, which took two years to complete. Releasing in 2008, the fan translation would later receive an update in 2014 that fixed up minor typos, grammatical errors, and bugs; it can be found [[http://mother3.fobby.net/ here]], though you'll need an official copy of the game to play it. As it stands, the translation is currently the only way to ever play the game in a language that is not Japanese. For ease of reference, this unofficial translation is the primary source for tropes.

''Mother 3'' is notable for its long development cycle (approximately the length of the already-long production of the previous title), having been planned almost immediately after ''Mother 2'' was released. Details began to surface of ''Mother 3'' as a UsefulNotes/{{Nintendo Platform/{{Nintendo 64}} title -- as part of the now-failed Nintendo 64DD add-on -- and was even given the tentative worldwide title ''[=EarthBound=] 64'' before falling into {{vaporware}} territory (its earliest development predated ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever's'', which didn't surpass its time in DevelopmentHell until 2007). It was officially cancelled in 2000, but eventually resurfaced in 2003 and was finally released for the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance Platform/GameBoyAdvance in 2006 -- apparently due to renewed interest while ''Mother 1+2'' was being worked on. However, Nintendo has yet to [[NoExportForYou release the game outside of Japan]], despite vocal campaigns of support for an international release. Lucas eventually saw international recognition [[MarthDebutedInSmashBros due to his inclusion in]] ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl''.
