It's crazy to realize that Ness and company technically didn't defeat Giygas themselves; it took literal prayer and divine intervention to do so. That alone is terrifying to think about.

"Bro just stay alive for more 30 seconds i'm about to respawn"

The situation I'm in:

What I love about giygas’s theme is that it’s not bombastic and chest-pounding like “One-Winged Angel” or uptempo and boisterous like “Megalovania”, it’s subtle eerie.

Giygas isn’t trying to prove how tough and powerful he is in this battle. He has already become a near- unstoppable force, a being of pure rage and hatred. He is so powerful that he is literally only defeated by prayer- conventional methods such as direct attack are totally no-sold.

This theme is not “I am all powerful” It is a being incapable of rational thought, with no motive at all outside of blind, destructive anger for all of reality, lashing out at you and coming very, very close to obliterating you with a swat of its hand

This is very iconic, I love how ominous it sounds
Giygas is a very creepy yet legendary boss that was ahead of it's time.

what it feels like to be awake for the entire night when you’re trying to sleep

3:01 In music theory this is called a "Fuck You" transition

Imagine if there was a character that just absorbs all this anger and reflects it back at Giygas

Giygas is literally one of the scariest, most genius, and most underrated video game villains of all time. He’s *literally the concept itself of evil incarnate, * but if you read his lore, he’s so much more than just that. He’s a symbolic representation for how if you let hatred, evil, and trauma run unchecked within you it will destroy you. Pokey’s lines right before you fight Giygas give credence to this: “He’s not even aware of what he’s doing. His own mind was destroyed by his own power. He’s an almighty idiot!”

I still remember how dark this game was, between master belch, and pokey about to sacrafice paula with the happy cult....it's amazing how we even got this game in the states.

Fun Fact:
Giygas internally has 20, 000 HP, but is programmed to fully heal every turn. The only reason why praying eventually kills him is that it eventually does more than 20K damage in one hit, meaning the heal can't take effect. Theoretically if you had an attack that could deal over 20, 000 damage, you could defeat him before it's scripted to, although I'm not sure what kind of glitches this may cause since the game doesn't expect him to die early.

Earthbound has a unique soundtrack. From jazzy enemy battle themes, cheerful town themes to some surprisingly creepy atmospheric themes like the final boss, the caves, and the beginning night when the meteor lands.

This is the scariest song I've ever listened, I love it despite that. I don't know how they can do this masterpiece!

It's interesting that you can still make out a sort of rhythm to this music if you listen close enough. The music sounds chaotic, but it's planned chaos.

Imagine if after Lucas pulls the last needle and everything goes dark, instead of hearing all the characters, it's utter silence, then a familiar red visage appears on the screen.
