Hopes? Expectations?
>Hopes?That it's good.>Expectations?It'll probably be pretty good.The fact they outright announced the original Bandai Namco outsourced version didn't meet their quality standard and then most likely internally restarted the project at least once at Retro is a good sign.
I’m expecting the soundtrack to lick ass from what we’ve heard, which is great. The old interviews and the logo/clips we saw make the time travel mechanics seem almost probable, and I think there is great design potential there. And the remaster had excellent atmosphere; so ai’m sure they’ll nail that too. I’m excited
>>693293857>Hopes?Huge tits>Expectations?A decent ass
>>693293857>hopesMeteoroid fans waste their money on it and cry that it's bad but continue wasting their money on each Meteoroid release. Then they die alone after having given Nintendo ALL their money and leaving everything to Nintendo in their will. Then Nintendo spends all the money they got from Meteoroid on based Zelda.>expectationsEverything I said except they spend some of the money on Mario and movies too.
>>693299873You’d be better off typing “bump” or “metroid sucks”, cause that shit was neither funny or engaging bait>you repliedBump
>hopesIt’s on par with Echoes and has similar vibes.>dreamsFirst-person speedbooster.>expectations It looks and plays like a Prime game. Shitters will pretend that’s a bad thing. In reality it is nothing but good news that these games are holding onto their identity instead of getting dumbed down for normalfag secondaries who can’t appreciate such kino. We won.
>>693300510>it looks and plays like a prime gameAll I wanted, DESU. But I hope Beyond has the remaster’s control options, I’d prefer dual analog. Even I have to admit seeing the return of lock-on aiming feels very archaic. Didn’t Retro hire a ton of industry experts on shooters? That control style is more than twenty years old.
>>693301416Lock on is superior to any console aiming. Fuck console aiming.
>>693301663The trilogy version where you’re locked on but still have to use precision aiming is great. The original GC tank controls aren’t.
>>693300303Are you really THIS sensitive that you have to say the truth is bait? Everyone knows and you admit it constantly. Cope and seethe.
>>693300510It already doesn't look like one you fucking moron. There's a trailer.
>>693302051Nah the original controls rule. FPS games are always more interesting when the emphasis is on movement and avoiding attacks rather than aiming, especially when you're aiming with a control stick.
I hope for exploration kino, which means good looking mysterious environments.
>>693293857>hopesIt's not shit>expectationsIt's shit. Most of the Prime team don't work at Retro anymore
>>693293857Tanabe is going to fuck it up.
>>693293857>Hopes?We finally get a metroid game heavy on exploration released for once since 2004. No heavy focus on action (seems to be the case given how they didn't turn it into doom or something). Great new gimmick (whatever the black hole thing is) with new exciting upgrades/suits >ExpectationsTechnically impressive games for the switch. A game on the level of Prime 3, better level design/exploration but worse aspects in some other areas. Does not reach prime 1/2's heights. I do expect it to be better than Dread though on account of not shoving in retarded stealth areas, better OST too because compositions hopefully won't need to accommodate for constantly shifting areas >>693301663Regular aiming could work with gyro (actually prime 3's X-ray vision has sort of a mechanic that's just that) but it doesn't seem to be the direction they're going with
>>693302852tanabe doesn't fuck up with retro's games
>>693302416Did you not see the generic mass effect moon ass looking environments in the trailer? Only other environment they have is Pandora from Avatard. They're not giving you shit dude.
>>693293857>HopesIt gets released>ExpectationsIt will not
>>693293857Why the fuck you used the old logo?
>>693304220Why the fuck not?
>>693302218>Samus and her ship are lifted directly from corruption>the pirates and their ships are lifted directly from corruption>the feds and their shit are lifted directly from corruption>the HUD is almost 1:1 a copy from all three Prime games>energy tanks, visors and weapons are all in the usual places >scan visor works the same>lock on dashing works the same Did we watch the same trailer? I don’t think you’ve ever played these games. Or, you’re just a blind retard.
>>693304883>blind man accuses other people of being blind
>>693305072Shut the fuck up lmao, your bait is shit and you’re a faggot.
>>693304883if anything it looks too much like corruption desu desu, I don’t know how anyone could look at this game and think it doesn’t look exactly like it
>>693304883>Samus lifted directly from corruptionI'm not even going to read the rest of your post. I don't have to. You're wrong right off the bat. Prime 4's design is similar to that of Prime 3's but to say that it's lifted directly from it is retarded beyond comprehension.
>>693306068It’s literally just the Prime Varia redesigned in Echoes to have more human proportions. Doubling down on your retardation just makes you look like more of a retard. Stop replying at any time.
>>693304569You need an ass whoopin anon
>>693306163So what you're saying is it's not directly lifted from corruption.
>>693306251Look at the suit you stupid nigger. The Varia in corruption is the same as the Varia in echoes. The Varia in beyond has all of the same detailing. You are genuinely too stupid to live.
>>693306068ZAMN!
>>693306493Why are you talking about Echoes?
>>693293857>Hopes? Expectations?Motion controls like on Wii.
It doesn't use a wiimote so has no worth and should not be discussed.
>>693306493>The Varia in beyond has all of the same detailing.Except, you know, for the entire main body. From the neck down to the pussy. Completely different detailing. The chest in particular is much more rigid and angular instead of rounded like Corruption. There's much less of a gap under the chin, as well.And then there's the shoulders. Those fins end before the little ridge gaps in Beyond, while they just go over the ridge gaps in Corruption. Or the extra lining added before they meet the collar section.HOw about that helmet? Look at those pipes, much saggier in Corruption compared to Beyond, where they look tighter.The arm canon is now tapered in Beyond, as opposed to Corruption's cylinder. Additional lighting was added to the round bits near the elbow, and a gap was added to better accommodate actually being able to raise the thing without clipping into the upper arm armor, overall making it look more like the version of the arm canon in Other M. It's not in that shot, but a pointy bit was added on the bottom of the elbow as well, unlike Corruption.There's also some extra details and changes to the legs but that image doesn't really cover them. But no, it's completely the exact same model. No differences whatsoever. You blind son of a bitch.
>>693307404I’m not reading all of that. You are kvetching over useless shit. It’s the same design and you’re a dumb nigger.
I'm worried that it'll have too much movieshit and storytelling shoved down our throats. Dread was already pushing the limit with how much talking there is.
>hopesIt will be good.>expectations It will be good.
>>693307876I hope it has JUST enough cutscenes (read: at least one cutscene) to make you shit up every single Metroid thread for another ten years, you subhuman freak.
>>693293857>people still believe in metroid prime 4how long has it been now?
>>693308175Cool your jets, amigo.
>>693308472Tighten your rope, faggot.
>>693308449I never stopped believing. Hope always wins.
>>693293857I just want it to be good, and I expect it'll be good.
>>693307619I accept your concession, you dense motherfucker.
>>693302416See that giant tree? You can go there.
>>693308634Why do you get so angry?
>>693308746Based hopeposter, I never had any doubts.
>>693302852>>693303404Tanabe isn't allowed to fuck up. Nintendo doesn't exactly love Metroid, but they do seem to attach a certain pedigree to it. Other M and Federation Force are anomalies, while otherwise Metroid games don't get to happen unless they're bangers. >>693303257>pic... Y'know, I really shouldn't be that surprised.
>>693309010Kind of reminds me of the Kashyyk level in Jedi Fallen Order. Which was kino.
>>693309274>Sakamoto had full creative control over Other M>it sucked>Tanabe had full creative control over Federation Force>it suckedThey direct good games but can’t be trusted on their own.
>>693307619Twitter might be more your speed. You've got that same "I've been presented with proof that I'm wrong but I'm going act like a child and stick my head in the sand instead." energy about you.
>>693309745Exactly. This shit happened twice in a row. Nobody gets sole creative control over Metroid games anymore. I like to semi-seriously think there's like a consultant who's job is to monitor development progress, and makes them remove stuff that is known to piss off the fanbase. Metroid games may not sell gangbusters, but they're still a reliable source of income. Sustainability is important.
>>693310021I believe it. It’s probably the exact reason the first build got scrapped.
>hopesIt’s like Echoes.>dreamsIt’s like Echoes but better.>expectations It’s Corruption 2.
>>693310021Metroid is a solidly B-list franchise, and does exactly as well as it needs to. As a young adult I always thought it deserved more success, age has shown me it’s actually a blessing it is t more popular. Zelda turned into open world survival crafting slop, I’m happy Metroid is still Metroid.
>>693311498This. It's nice that Metroid still has a focus and isn't trying to chase trends aside from the dumb parries that feel straight out of Borderlands.
>>693311582>parries>borderlandslmfao what?
>HopesNext to no cutscenes or human interactions unlike Prime 3.>ExpectationsFor it to be the safest and most bland Prime entry, with music that rings of "Remember Phendrana Drifts? Or Sky Temple?" instead of being something wholly its own.
>>693311704They're too flashy for my tastes. It feels like Samus is being a tryhard with all the wacky backflips and posing, and it makes me hate her for being obnoxious. Spectacle belongs in movies, not video games.
>>693311879No dumbass, explain where Borderlands ever had parries.
>>693312072It's not the parry mechanic itself, but rather the mindset behind it. Like they take something that should be simple, and they overcomplicate it for no reason. It's the gameplay equivalent of this.
I love the new Varia design.
>>693312179Genuinely retarded analogy, I weep for you
>>693312550literally lifted directly from corruption
>>693312550I'm not feeling the new design that much. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy It even exists but my bias for retared HUGE shoulderpads Is too strong. Vanilla Varia suit was best In Echoes/Pre -corruption 3
>>693312773Then explain to me why the parries needed to be so unnecessarily long. When you initiate a parry against a boss, why doesn't it immediately put you back into the gameplay? A parry executed should result in you simply avoiding damage. That's it. The 30 second cinematic cutscene where you can mash fire for free damage is not only unnecessary, but hurts the game by coddling casuals.
>>693293857>hopesnone. after returns and dread I have no hype for the franchise.>expectations no zero suit, no suitless pics as reward since dread got rid of this tradition, no meaningful additions to the canon
>>693313171>no zero suit, no suitless pics as reward since dread got rid of this tradition,Based. That's a tradition I can get behind.
>>693313171>Prime secondary got filtered by 2D Metroidkek, every time
>>693312179>>693313029>X is like Y>ok explain>well I didn’t mean that, it’s more… the vibes, manOh, you’re an idiot. Got it. If you want to be taken seriously draw a better comparison next time. Borderlands parries, Jesus fucking CHRIST. Borderlands doesn’t have parries you dumb fucking bastard.
>>693293857>ExpectationsThat they'll make Samus ugly for commie brownie points and I'll completely ignore the game.>HopesNone because I've mentally registered this as a game that I'm 80% likely to pass on.Prime is the only Metroid that I like BTW. I love Castlevania and I've tried to like Metroid, but I find the exploration and combat tedious.>Shitter.I can bomb jump all day. I just don't enjoy it.
>>693313171>dread got rid of this tradition
>>693313405>laser focusing on one tiny part of it, missing the whole point of the comparisonAre you well, anon? Do you understand the point of a comparison? It's not gonna be 1:1. The point is that they're both over-the-top and excessive, completely ruining the tone of the games.
>>693312550>>693312884>reusing a 10/10 suit designAnd that’s a good thing, entirely unironically. I love the new proportions, they took the same design and perfected it. Pauldrons could be like 15% bigger tho.
>>693313526>nooo it’s just a comparison pls ignore the fact that I said something blatantly retardedYou said something blatantly retarded and I’ve written the rest of your ‘argument’ off as retarded. Better luck next time.
>>693313713>I know the point you're making, but you made the a typo, so I'm gonna discard everything you said based on thatPretty comparable to what you're doing right now.
>>693313526>”parries that feel straight out of Borderlands!”>uh, I just meant that I don’t like either game, not that they are actually that similarPut a bag over your head and kill those last remaining braincells for us
>>693313561Indeed. Ain't broke, don't fix. Samus' Varia Suit might be one of the best designs for a video game protagonist. Legitimately iconic.
>>693313982If it really bothers you, then just replace Borderlands with another game with shitty parries, like Nu-God of War, or Uncharted with the cinematic attack animations.
>>693313462Who, you’re retarded in all facets
>>693313841>drawing a retarded false comparison is the same as making a typoIf only it were that minor, eh faggot? GG.
is this the fastest acfag has been btfo? old age has not been kind to the poor dear
>>693314162You still haven't explained why the comparison was so horrible. If it really bothers you, then just replace it with another game with bad parries, like what I said here >>693314080>>693314262>one minute apartNevermind, you're just shitposting.
>HopesThat Prime Pinball 2 is included.
>>693314305>everyone who makes fun of me... is the same person?Now you're just seething. Better leave the thread before your feelings really get hurt, lil fella.
>>693312550This is just the varia suit from Prime 2 with some altered anatomy which is fine, the suit was perfected in Echoes. Should have used it in SR too.
>>693314374>shitposter unable to hide his shitposting pattern gets called outNah, I think I'll keep discussing Metroid, in spite of your shitposting.
>>693313493You can't expect shitposters to actually know anything about the topic they're shitting up, anon
>>693303404>>693309274But you guys shit on Prime 2 and 3 all the time, and those were the Prime games Tanabe had most involvement with. I only ever see praise for the original Prime (Which had more involvement with Miyamoto than Tanabe).
>>693314449You will not actually be doing that, kek
>>6932938573D metroids don't work mechanically well
>Prime 4>Xenoblade XHot damn, it's a good time for splorin'!
>>693314514Been doing it since I got into the thread. Unless you'd like to explain how >>693307876 isn't metroid discussion.
>>693314507Where have you been? Echoes is considered a cult classic these days. If there's one game in the trilogy that doesn't get talked about, it's Corruption.
>>693314305I’m not the same person, fucking retard. I just don’t give a fuck to continue calling you out after you defended your dogshit comparison for so long, only to drop it and pretend like nothing happened. Could have just admitted you said something stupid, but you’re actually deeply unintelligent
>>693314507Prime 2 is liked just as much if not more here>(Which had more involvement with Miyamoto than Tanabe).not true, one of the retro devs on the kiwitalkz interviews said tanabe was much more hands on with prime while miyamoto was hands off, the latter didn't even give a fuck about metroid until midway through prime's development when he started being interested
>>693314527Metroid works better in 3D, the environmental exploration the series is known for is better suited for it
>>693314626I'm sorry if you didn't like the comparison. But the point behind it still stands. The parries are overly cinematic flashy garbage. It reminded me of Borderlands, even if it doesn't have parries in it, since they love being over the top and flashy too.
>>693314507>But you guys shit on Prime 2 and 3 all the time,Pft. Speak for yourself, mate. I fucking love Echoes, and I will always defend Corruption as the "worst" one, meaning it's still a great game. >TanabeYeah, but other people were still piloting the ship as well.
>>693311582>>693312179>>693313029>>693313526This is embarassing, even for the likes of you, ACfag. Tell me how I know you've been shitting up threads for too long.
>>693314776I don’t care what you like. Don’t dig your heels in when you say retarded shit like “the parries are straight from Borderlands” and then pretend like you are actually discussing anything. Took you a dozen posts to finally abandon that stance
>it's a dogpile on the resident schizo for saying something retarded episodeGood old Metroid threads. It's the same experience every time.
>>693314840>>693314932Okay, since you don't like the comparison, we can drop it and focus on this important part:>A parry executed should result in you simply avoiding damage. That's it. The 30 second cinematic cutscene where you can mash fire for free damage is not only unnecessary, but hurts the game by coddling casuals.Is this wrong?
I regularly play fighting and cuhrayzee action games so I like parries.I sort of understand the dislike of the flashy moves that come after though. I think parrying bosses should be a tighter window, to make the dlashy cutscene at least feel more earned.
>>693314989>p-p-please ignore the fact that I said something stupid that invalidates the rest of my opinionDon't think I'll do that, ol chap.
>>693314989This is a thread about Prime 4, you fucking loser
>>693314982This. It's almost reassuring that I can always open a Metroid thread and see ACfaggot doing something spectacularly autistic.
>>693315071And i'm concerned about Prime 4 adding dumb parries.
>>693315170Pathetic, transparent squirming to pretend you aren’t just derailing the thread to say the same shit you’ve been saying for years. Autism like this deserves euthanasia
>>693315320I'm talking about Prime 4, anon. Take it easy. That's why I posted to begin with, to voice my concerns about them possibly re-using the worst of Dread, and not learning lessons from it. Why did you come to a metroid thread, if you just wanted a hugbox without criticism?
>>693314989>coddling casualsCasuals hated Dread, which isn't even the game this thread is about. So it is indeed wrong, on top of your extremely retarded false comparison for which you are being rightfully mocked. Will you ever tired of being humiliated?
>>693293857>Hopes? That it's good>Expectations?It won't be good
>>693315543>will you ever tired of being humiliatedNo. Never.This is the only social interaction I get. I live with my mother, and I've never had sex. I'm too fat to leave the house. Sorry. I hope you can forgive me. And you're right, 'borderlands parry' was really stupid and I feel bad.
>>693315543>Casuals hated Dread, Then you'd agree that we should remove the parries, at least the overly cinematic ones. And they shouldn't make an appearance in future Metroid titles. After all, they're unnecessary and hardcore gamers shouldn't need them.
>>693315668I'd agree you're a stupid faggot that should be hanged from a tree, yes.
>>693315027I like parries because even back in the day, it was annoying that Samus had no melee option. Fucking Shadow Pirates getting all up in my face and can't do anything about goddamn sucks. Please let Beyond have a punch button so can make enemies back the fuck UP.
>>693315543>Casuals hated Dreadlol no, dread handholds/railroads you nearly as badly as fusion and other M in addition to adding a fuck ton of checkpoints as opposed to relying on save stations
>>693315824Regular enemy parries are fine. They're instant and don't bloat the game with unnecessary flashy moments.
>>693315850Ok Mr. Jaffe, let's get you to bed.
>>693315824letting enemies get near you is a punishment for poor spacing which you have to get out of with morph ball, there shouldn't be a get out of jail free card
I want backtracking done right. Fuck the criticism Metroid Prime gets. Nothing will ever feel as satisfying than finally going through a door you had no fucking clue how to even approach because you don’t unlock the ability until like an hour or two after you notice the door. And I’m not talking about just painting doors different colors. I mean like that giant room in Agon Wastes where you have to cross a giant gap, or like that massive room in Tallon Overworld there the frigate crashed and you can’t go up to it because you can’t navigate through the water. I want the game to tease me in a smart way and make me wonder what the fuck is behind these unreachable and unopenable doors. I want that sense of mystery back. Fuck, really, I just wish I could play Metroid Prime for the first time again
>>693307876Gonna skip the fancy retorts and just call you a faggot
>>693315952This. The first two do it really well, then Corruption is practically nothing but setpieces aside from some notably satisfying trips through parts of Bryyo and Skytown.
>>693315665Stop impersonating me. I've had plenty of sex, with my mother.
>>693315824thisSamus should have an ability that is literally just a kick. It’d be so satisfying to humble some of those fuckers with a stern and loud kick to the face that sends them flying back, giving you some space
>>693316456Better, let her use those giant fucking knee spikes.
>>693315952What criticism are you referring to? Most people like that shit. The only issue I see people site is that you’re lead through the dame places too often. And I dislike that you can get to the end of the sunken space station and have to turn all the way around
>>693315952>Nothing will ever feel as satisfying than finally going through a door you had no fucking clue how to even approach because you don’t unlock the ability until like an hour or two after you notice the door.That's just Metroid, baby! I swear, getting the Space Jump Boots feels like you just unlocked a cheat with how much it opens up the world. >>693315952>Fuck, really, I just wish I could play Metroid Prime for the first time againRemember when replay value meant "This game rules. I want to play it again."? Good times.
>>693313561It's not reused. It's pretty different, even if the overall design is the roughly the same.
Quit yer shitpostin and post sexy Samus pics
>>693306068Eh I don't blame anon for mixing them up, Beyond's Varia is mostly the Echoes one, but with different proportions closer to Dread and details such as the grooves on the arms and the arm cannon, now what is retarded is when people mix the Prime 1 design and the Echoes one, you'd be surprised how many people do so.
>>693316903TBF prime remaster's suit had blended elements of the prime 2 varia, they're much closer together than the original 1's varia with the big distinction still being the helmet
I have no hopes or expectations because I know MP4: Beyond will be worth the wait and exactly what I want. I don't care about anything, or anyone else.
>>693317278If it's as good as Metroid: Dread, that would be pretty nice. But it should not be shielded from criticism.
>>693293857Ah yes, the Switch 2 game that was announced when Switch launched. How could I forget
>>693317083Prime also has some of the biggest pauldrons too at least until Samus Returns came along, but there are other details like the different shape of the chest lights and the different leg armor too
>>693317457Ok Mr. Borderlands Parry I think you've had enough for one day, lets get you your tendies.
>he's still seething over someone comparing Metroid's parries to Borderlands
PED Suit is underrated. Love the cobbled together look.
>>693317278>vacation's over, time to go blow up another pristine alien ecosystem to fuck over the pirates
>he's still nursing his wounds from the entire thread mocking his retarded false comparison
I just want to know more about Sylux, I always liked his design since I played Hunters, he stood out and I just wanna see him do cool shit.
>>693317912I really like the angular panel lines, like the entire thing is made of interlocking plates.
>>693318036Seriously, I want this asshole's problem to be some petty bullshit. And I especially want Samus to have no idea who this is. Literally who.
>>693318442I know it's a joke but Samus will know either way, she'll probably be surprised with the time this asshole spent in the shadows planning shit just to come out of nowhere
>>693318036>>693318442>>693318831I hope Sylux beats the odds and sticks around as a recurring antagonist, be it a more typical villain or something more like a rival. Metroid could use some new blood.
>>693318831>>693318442>>693318036He wants to burn the entire federation to the ground and wants to kill billions.He's a villain after my own heart.
>>693318970I'll be thinking of you in particular when I'm beating the shit out of him.
>>693319172>thinking of one of the coolest and most influential villains in the entire metroid seriesBased.
>>693293857I tried playing through the first Metroid prime recently It’s really good for the first half but the pacing slows down a bit in the second and starts to get abit too backtracky I stopped after I got the final gear upgrade because I couldn’t be bothered searching for all the relic things
>>693320010Yeah, the artifact hunt can get a little repetitious, and Prime 2 has a similar thing with looking for the light keys. I'd recommend taking a break from the game for a week or so, since you will be backtracking a bit to get it all, and you don't wanna suffer from burnout.
>>693318958Yeah, after the death of Dark Samus and Ridley I feel there's a lack of a rival to Samus
>>693293857To be goodIt won't be good
How do you guys feel about a potential time travel mechanic that alters the environments in ways that facilitate puzzles and new paths?
>>693293857Hope in today's nintendo? None
>>693317896Borderlands had parries?then again I dropped that series at like the 2nd DLC of 2
>>693320883Enjoyed the Time travel mechanic in that Portal mod. Enjoyed it in Ratchet and Clank. Maybe it'll be good.
>>693320883Let's fucking go.
>>693320883well prime 2 is my favorite game ever and that seems reminiscent of its dark world mechanic so I'm all for it
Interesting that they've been giving her more visibly feminine proportions lately.
>>693323801Kind of gross, but if the game is good I can ignore it.
>>693323801Kind of based, I love that the suit looks like it can actually have a real person inside it.
>>693293857It was canceled, unfortunately.
I'm glad Metroid Prime is one of the first games added for the Nintendo Music app and the only Gamecube title as of now, this app doesn't really appeal to me since I prefer to download my music library but this means they really recognize how good that game's ost truly is, hopefully they add Fusion, Super and Echoes soon
>>693324481It's okay, it got better.
>Prime discussion is chill and constructive>2D discussion is autistic and shitpost heavywhy?
>>693325553People mostly have similar opinions about the Prime games and not having a new release means that shitposters are less drawn to it. We’ll see how things go with Beyond releases
>>693325553It's just the resident schizo. Metroidchads love Metroid, generally, in all its forms.
>>693294048Makes me wonder is Sony did this with Concord instead of doubling down on it by buying Firewalker, they might have avoided a catastrophe.
>>693296283disgusting
>>693327779>>693325553I love Metroid, and don't believe in the whole "2d versus 3d" war that some people try to push. It's just that metroid also has problems. I think they can be improved.
>>693327892Your ideas for improving Metroid are retarded and deserving of the ceaseless mockery they get. You're the butt of our jokes and always will be, borderlands parry faggot.
>>693312550I can't wait to see what upgrade suit designs Retro will cook up this time.
>>693327987They have yet to top this, but I hope they do.
>>693327880You don’t enjoy licking ass, anon?
>>693293857casual slopsamus is turned into either an emotional wreck a la other m, or into a TUFF INDAPENDYNT WUMMINZ WHO DUN NID NO MEN
>>693320883I'm down for epic sci-fi adventures but time travel must be handled carefully.
I expect usual Metroid Prime fare but even more linear with constant hints and railroading on where to go.Normalfags are allergic to this old school design philosophy that Metroid is designed around and they want this to sell as much as possible. And Nintendo as a whole has been catering more to the casuals. I don't expect Metroid Prime 4 to not be as casualized as Corruption, if not even moreso.
>>693328495>old schooldon't call it old. it's normal design.
>>693327970You wouldn't find them retarded if you expanded your gaming tastes. I draw from alot of non-nintendo games that would greatly benefit Nintendo's library. For example, I've brought up Environmental Station Alpha as an example of a metroidvania with good storytelling, simply because the main character is a robot. No feelings, no emotions, no crying, no vulnerability. It's perfect videogame kino.
>>693328230tanabe being an anti-story autist at least has its merits for metroid
>>693328848You only think Environmental Station Alpha is good because you're a pathetic autistic loser afraid of any display of humanity. Your dieas are retarded, your opinions discarded.
>>693293857Hopes:>gameplay designed around 3rd person (let pay piggies pay extra if they want inferior 1st person as DLC)>no damage sponge enemies>Riddly Scott tier horror elements>complete isolation and 0 dialogue>no space jump (for fucks sake make a more creative movement power up)>Samus doesn't take her helmet off, ever, but if she does let her look like gatcha waifubait at leastExpectations:>1st person with no chance to fix it>get locked in rooms with damage sponges that respawn every time you come back>Fortnite tier design>several NPCs and a metric fuck ton of dialogue>get the Space Jump at the first half of the game trivializing platforming in the later half>Samus removes her helment and has a chin like a Female Custode
>>693328848>environmental station alpha>storytellingkek what a retard
>>693328972>>693329073I'm just saying, I'd rather have a soulless robot than a repeat of Metroid: Other M.
The only metroid game I've ever played is Super Metroid and I intend to keep it that way. Please keep these threads off my board.
>>693329096Everyone else moved on from that trashfire but you. You're still kvetching over kusoge from over a decade ago. Fortunately, Nintendo has relegated Other M to irrelevant spinoff status so you have nothing to worry about. I think you know this; you continue shitting up these threads because you're a loser.
Obligatory endgame keyhunt is more like the Energy Cells, like like the Sky Temple Keys.More retarded Space Pirate logs.
>>693329321To be fair anon Other M was REALLY bad and really permanently mindbroke fags like ACnigger. I wonder what he would have been like had that game never existed. Probably still a retard.
>>693329537>>693329321>you're a retard if you hate bad games?????
>>693329656Missing the forest for the trees there acnigger, but then again you thought borderlands had parries so there's plenty of reasons to see you as a retard kek
>>693329760Nothing I've ever suggested would be bad for the series. Are you that attached to muh cinematic spectacle, or Samus having a tragic backstory with feelings and emotions? Would it hurt Prime 4 if it was a minimalist game with no story and was just Samus trying to kill Sylux because he's an asshole? Will it ruin his character if he doesn't have some deep cinematic reason for his actions, and he's just a gigantic jerk trying to kill everyone?
>>693329987Not reading that. Opinion discarded, you are retarded.
>>693330175Just a suggestion. I mean no offense.
>>693329760We should start calling him Parryfag with how obsessed he is with this shit, autistically bringing it up in a completely unrelated game's thread.
>>693330576I second this, us AC chads don't claim him.
>>693330576You COULD talk about Metroid Prime. Seems like the right thread for it.
>>693293857>HOPESSpeed booster, screw attack, grapple beam can be used on multiple surfaces for parkour. Titanfall-style movement seems like a good compromise to sell Samus's acrobatics in first person.>expectationsIt will be perfectly fine. It will come out and it will be a Metroid Prime game. It won't reinvent the wheel and there will be people disappointed because it's just entirely normal and expected.
>>693330252>I mean no offense.bullshit, you always offend people with your retarded shitposts and retarded mentality of "oh this person thinks Zero Suit Samus is sexy, THEREFORE THEY LOVE OTHER M"
>>693331376>Titanfall-style movementDoesn't look like it from the trailer, gameplay looks identical to every other Metroid Prime. Which isn't really a bad thing. Maybe there will be Wall Boots or something.
>>693330849Look, all I'm saying is that even good games need criticism. You call yourself an AC chad, but can you say you love Armored Core if you didn't criticize the series for its faults? If i'm a shitposter for criticizing the stagger mechanic for its somewhat odd implementation, then what would you quantify as a good criticism?I'm excited for Prime 4, but don't act like it'll be a perfect masterpiece.>>693331513After so many ZSS porn dump threads, just don't like ZSS.
>>693293857I wonder if it's going to be a console shooter where you use both sticks, or if they're going to stick with the formula of locking your sights on enemies.If it's a traditional shooter, I think it's going to suck. But it's not as if the traditional formula would be much better either (although at least the gameplay was designed for Samus' limitations).
>>693331937What you call 'criticism' I correctly identify as petty autism. And no, I don't claim you. You are not a real Raven. You're a whiny fag.
>>693332007>you're never allowed to criticize anything ever>all games are objectively perfect
Oh. ACfag is here. Nevermind, I'll find another Metroid thread some other day. Bye.
>>693333282Stick around, we found something new and autistic to make fun of him for. Check this out.>>693311582>>693312179
>>693333392Holy shit is he really this retarded?
>>693333392Borderlands had parries?
>>693333392>>693333689>>693333873Geez, I already apologized if the analogy wasn't airtight. You guys really can't comprehend what I was trying to get at? Didn't like the parries for being over the top and show-offy, and it reminded me of Borderlands trying too hard to appeal to the kids. Geez, this is worse then when you all called me a faggot because I said I preferred Primehack over Remastered, due to liking the KBM controls. Or when people shat on me because I tried recommending Super Metroid romhacks.
>>693333333fuck you too
>>693334380>backpedalingyou made a dumbass comparison by saying "Dread's Parries are exactly like Borderland's Parries"
>>693301416>But I hope Beyond has the remaster’s control optionsIt probably will. I see Remastered as a project to get the new hires more familiar with making a Metroid Prime game so that they'll know what they're doing with 4, so I can even see them reusing the colorblind options
>>693314316The first one sold poorly so it's doubtful.There is a rumor that a physical Pokemon pinball machine is coming, but we'll see.
>>693334884"aside from the dumb parries that feel straight out of Borderlands."I'm sorry if I didn't clarify that enough. I wasn't saying that Borderlands had parries, but this felt like tryhard showboating that Randy Pitchford would put in a game.
>>693311498>Zelda turned into open world survival crafting slopIt was two games and traditional Zelda's still come out
>>693331376>Titanfall-style movementWhy would you want that in Metroid Prime?
>>693336832Cool movement puzzles. Make Samus feel as acrobatic as she does in the 2D games.
>>693337313>>693337545>Woke Samus.
>>693337692>first-person speed booster>first-person shinespark
>>693338156You understand.
>>693301663Gyro is fine you fucking hylic.
>>693337692No, this is a horrible idea. Prime Samus should be slow and tanky; she should have her own identity. We already have the 2D games for bing bing wahoo "acrobatics"
>>693338596That's dumb.
>>693338596Nothing wrong with a middleground. Prime is supposed to be a 3D version of Super Metroid.
>>693338652Not an argument >>693338659>Prime is supposed to be a 3D version of Super Metroid.Until Miyamoto intervened and suggested Prime have its own identity. Prime is just Prime. It doesn't have to be a middleground of anything; it doesn't need bing bing wahoo
>>693338878>n-not an argumentIt's dumb.>a-all platforming is muh bing bing memeThat's even dumber.>Samus should be slow and tanky despite that not being her identity beyond the Prime games being a product of their timeYou're retarded. Suck my argument.
>>693307876nigger shut the fuck up actranny.
>>693337313I never liked Prime 1 Samus, always really generic, but it's crazy how the remaster version looks even more soulless
>>693339070Who the fuck are you quoting?
>>693309745>>Tanabe had full creative control over Federation Force>>it suckedNo it fucking did not.You lying fucking cunt.Post your fucking copy. With play time.Right the Hell now.Fed Force was fine as a Squad based spin-off.You faggots still seethe over it despite it heralding Metroid's golden age.Worthless cunts.
>>693312179AHAHAHAHAHAHAHALULLMAOAHAHAHAYOUFUCKINGFAGGOT!Fourteen years you wasted shitting on Metroid.In the most disingenuous ways possible.You sad fucking whore.Go back to your snoy faggot movie trash or astroturf threads NIGGER!
>>693307876what, want more Borderlands parries?
>>693293857Happy that it’s happening but im not gonna play itMaybe in many many years I might
>>693314449>>shitposter unable to hide his shitposting pattern gets called outThat is LITERALLY you actranny.Like utterly and completely.Christ alive shut the FUCK UP. Admit you were just absolutely completely fucking wrong because you just simple do NOT play video games to any damned degree.
I want 2 things that I don't know how they could implement-You don't lose all your abilities at the beginning-You can wall jump
I expect to be busting nuts to armor>>693316891See, YOU get it>>693317912Light
>>693314449>Nah, I think I'll keep discussing Metroidwhen are you going to start?
>>693340053>>693339879>>693339506>>693339450>>693339141Yes, I get it. You didn't need to reply to me five times.
>>693339975The Dark Suit is the coolest suit. Though I would like both better if the arm cannon matched up with the aesthetics of the suits.
Sex with armored women
>>693340309
>>693340243>everyone who shits on me is the same person
>693327892actranny you do not play metroid.you do not play zeldayou don't play xenobladeit's been proven you don't even fucking play armoredcore the series you took your name from.you clearly don't plsy borderlands.You don't play ANY games.Shut the Hell up. Kill yourself.
>>693340482NANIS-SHE'S FAST
>>693340597Relax, bro. You'll survive.
>>693331376>grapple beamfuck off.Kill yourself.Grapple Lasso needs to be made permanent. Kill the beam.Lasso is far better as you can still shoot while swinging, plus the energy drain/expel has lots of usages.
I love the lighting and camera shots in this.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUImB-CnfT4Animation could use a lot of work but it's nice in a PS1 cutscene kind of way.
>>693341452NINTENDOHIRE THIS MAN
>>693341618fuck off, retard
>>693341452Least its not AI Slop.
>>693342090>AI slopPlease, we don't need that in this thread.
This thread might be the second hardest I’ve ever seen ACfag get raped. The first is still the thread where the legendary anon made TUUUUBES OC depicting ACfag as an obnoxious fag schizo. I wish I had saved those.
>>693342476So how long are you going to keep samefagging?
>>693342731>seething THIS muchkwab
>>693342864And you complained about me not discussing Metroid. What exactly are you doing?
>>693342476kek this sounds amazing
>>693342123>trying to call AI art on shit that clearly isn't Ai go away falseflagger
>>693293857Witch Switch 2 not coming out anytime soon I really have no hopes, I was hoping for a cross platform release and a 4k Switch 2 version but that's not happening anywhere near around launch, I was also hoping for it to sell well but no Switch 2 launch kills any chances of establishing Metroid.
>>693327779>>693327892
>>693350369based
>>693327892the problem is zss
>>693350369Basically this. There's no bad Metroid for me, feed me Metroid, I will enjoy it no matter what. >Get plasma beam, the next room is full of annoying strong enemies that you can now skewer and obliterate in a single blast.This is why video games were created, my monkey brain craves this dopamine rush.
