Description:
The new 2.0 version of Mother 2 Deluxe is a VAST improvement over the old 1.31 version that was here in romhacking.net.
A very small selection of major new features:
- Massively rebalanced to make the game more fair and less arbitrarily difficult.
- Jeff has his own Tools menu of his special items to free up his inventory.
- Many new battle animations for PSI and Jeff’s Tools.
- New final dungeon to tie Mother 2 and 3 together.
- Your Places (formerly known as Your Sanctuaries) that can be skipped until later (Lilliput Steps, Milky Well, Magnet Hill, and Pink Cloud) now auto upgrade their enemies and bosses over time to stay at your power level all game.
- Enemies completely reprogrammed to be very intelligent. Bosses and stronger enemies can detect status ailments on them and heal themselves.
- New PSI and PSI arrangements and costs.
- New battle sprites and enemy overworld sprites.
SO MUCH MORE!
Hack requires EBP (Earthbound Patcher) in order to patch.

Re-balanced Difficulty
Reviewed By: break on 08 Nov 2021Played the previous versions, but never felt like adding a review. With version 2.0…so many new things have been added ! First off, you will notice that enemies are smarter with new tactics. Really like the new order that you learn ‘PSI’ skills. Was surprised that the “Your Place” battles become harder the longer you wait to challenge them. Plus there is a whole bonus dungeon and hidden debug room to discover. I think one of the problems, in battle, that I had was PSI-Flash killing my party. While you can do the same to enemies…you can get a game over out of no where. With that said, if you want to challenge yourself give this hack a try !
