Hack description

Mother: 25th Faithful Edition is a fork of the Mother 25th Anniversary Edition hack made by DragonDePlatino.

The main purpose of this fork is to maintain a faithful feel to the intro/title screen, as well as changing names to keep it tied in with Earthbound/Mother 2 names.

The changes done are:

*Intro sequence colors changed to match the original Mother (Red / Blue / White).
*Main Title Screen modified to match the original Mother Title Screen screen (without subtitles but retaining the modified credits at the bottom).
*Giegue name changed to Giygas.
*"Status" stat changed to "Wisdom".

With credit where credit is due to DragonDePlatino, this fork along with the vanilla sprites patch finally allowed me to play this game without frustration. Simply put it was as enjoyable as first experiencing Earthbound on the SNES.

Definitive "Pure" Version	redmagejoe	2019-03-17	Version 1.3
Everything I have to say in my review on Dragon's patch, I could reiterate here. What I want to add, however, is that for me personally, I like my definitive versions to be as "pure" and looking as close to original as possible with changes left under the hood. The extent to which this is possible varies from patch to patch and game to game, but this is definitely my preferred fork of Dragon's amazing 25th Anniversary patch. Thank you for returning MOTHER to... Faithful.
