Quite literally the worst game I've ever played in my life
That's improbable unless you've played less than ten games and all of them were made before 2001.
>>722213870What's so bad about it?
>>722213870Wait until you "play" palworld (tech demo)
I couldn't get into it either desu. The controls were bad and the whole game is just bland
>>722213986Level design, enemy design, bossfights, controls, movement, lighting, pacing, backtracking, extremely narrow FOV, shitty first person jumping sections with said extremely narrow FOV, constant Simon Says bullshit with beam types, enemies are massive damage sponges, generic environmens, etc. What isn't wrong with this piece of shit? A couple of the tracks are decent is about the only positive I can give Maybe not the absolute worst game I've ever played but probably like bottom 10 out of 1000+. It actually starts off somewhat decent before entering a complete freefall and just continually surprising you in just how shit it can get as it goes on
>>722213870It's not remotely fun which is its biggest problem.
>>722213870Advance Filtered
>>722214224fair enough. I think in a lot of ways it was a tech demo at the time. I think the Omega Pirate was the only notable interaction. Metroid Prime, the boss, was kind of retarded.
>>722213870Bet you got real boss baby vibes from this game.
>>722213870Rather privileged take. Some of the worst games I've played? Star Wars Episode II for GBA, Dragonball Z Taiketsu, Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub Zero, Sonic 06, Corpse Party Blood Drive. I dunno man, maybe try playing an actually bad game or two, then you won't say stupid shit like this.
>>722214767I would take any of those games over Metroid Prime
>>722213870I had it physically as a kid and never got into it. It was dark, the combat wasn't great, the platforming sucked, the bosses and the visuals were cool but it just didn't hook me like other cube games did.
>>722214767I think the worst game, although i really liked it, was Project Eden. Not because it was bad, but because it was bizarre, empty, and buggy as fuck. Would crash all the time, setting back hours of progress. So many fun ideas in it though. So many bad ideas too
>>722213870You're just jealous you weren't allowed to play it as a kid.
>>722214849The only thing you want to take is a hundred cocks in your ass fag
>>722214767>Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub ZeroThe PlayStation version is much more entertaining.
>manufactured Prime 1 hateWhy are Switchers like this?
it's a cool game. i think some of the styling was bleak as it seemed riddled with horror-themed elements. doom 3 did a similar thing where you can find datalogs from researchers after a containment breach, getting an idea of how things went horribly wrong. collecting those drew me in more than the gameplay did.
>>722215124I did play it as a kid, retard. I vaguely remember liking it but I probably never made it past the first few hours.Now playing the full game I see it's complete shovelware trash.
>>722213870Metroid Prime was an incredible game. loved the raw focus on technology and life on an alien world, the amazing OST and futuristic weaponry. it legit felt like you were there scanning enemies in real time and getting Intel from some AI. landing on Tallon IV is a highlight of my gaming life. I remember basedfacing as the cutscene played
>>722215490Another retard manchild who hasn't played it since they were a toddler. The first couple hours are fine, the remaining 80% of the game is pure boring, miserable torture
>>722213870Meh. It's mid at best.
Pacing is kind of bad.Never played 2 or 3.I have to imagine it's something they've focused on with 4.
>>722215490not at all, I'm emulating the remaster on 4k and it's gorgeous. hard to believe gaming has yet to give us experiences like this 20 years later.
>>722215570NTA but the last time I played it was a few months ago, for the first time in about 15 years. Only part that sucked was the late game item cleanup. Never did 100% this game in the past and now I know why - it's more fun to jump straight to Impact Crater than backtrack for that last 20-ish percent. But otherwise, still loved it like I did back in the 00s.
Probably the worst bossfights ever in a videogame. Can't really think of anything worse off the top my head
>>722215778You're a fucking retard then and should kys. You have to be a complete lobotomized golem to actually enjoy this piece of shit game.
>>722213870>you know that universally acclaimed masterpiece?>well... IT'S ACTUALLY BADGet some new material
>>722215865
>>722215789Umihara Kawase, not even a contest.
>>722215904>74 without the Nintendo bonusBrutal.
>>722215904No one with an IQ over 80 thinks this game is actually good.
>>722213870Tell me what games you've played. If Metroid Prime is the worst of them all then those must be timeless masterpieces. I want to play them.
>>722216057I could name about 1000 games better than Metroid Prime. The real question is which are worse? Now that's tough
Reminder Prime 2 is the best game in the series
>>722216149>I could name about 1000 games better than Metroid PrimeThen do it. I'm not interested in games that are worse.
Here's a list of Nintendo systems I've owned -SNESThat's all. I've skipped every single one of their shitty consoles. Metroid Prime sucks too, I played it at a friend's house.
>>722216204Just go to gamecube library, sort alphabetically. Metroid Prime is the worst game in the library so any other game you choose is better
You don't play a lot of games, do you?
this dude has no joke made this exact same thread probably 30 times over the past 2 weeks
>>722216451It's patheticImagine having nothing better to do with your time
>>722216649There are at least 1000 posts of the same nature posted each day.
>>722216649OP, explain?
>>722213956FPBP
>>722213870The controls are pretty ass and the boss fights aren't great but it's still a good game overall
>>722214224>Level designGenerally fine outside of Magmoor inexplicably being a central hub of sorts.>enemy designThey get lazy with Phazon Mines' color coding shit but the enemies are suitably varied otherwise.>bossfightsSure. Omega Pirate and Metroid Prime are the "best" ones and they're war of attrition resource checks.>controlsAlso not the best, but good enough considering combat's not really the primary focus.>movementMovement's fine. Not exciting, but it gets the job done. >lightingPretty good by 2002 standards.>pacingThis has the Wind Waker issue of it not being so bad if you know what you're doing, but it kinda sucks when flying blind. Eh, fair enough.>backtrackingDo you know what series you're playing here?>extremely narrow FOVI can't comment on the validity of this but I've never noticed any issues.>shitty first person jumping sections with said extremely narrow FOVAcquire proficiency.>constant Simon Says bullshit with beam typesOnly in Phazon Mines.>enemies are massive damage spongesYou are not abusing super missiles enough.>generic environmensThemes, sure. Execution? Phendrana Drifts could bring a tear to one's eyes back in the day.
>>722216403So you actually can't name any game that's better than Metroid Prime?>uh any game is betterNo faggot. Name them.
>>722213870Metroid Prime killed my dog
y'all niggas postin' in a spambot thread
>>722216057Metroid PrimeChrono TriggerResident Evil 4Those are the three games I've played
>>722216260Yep, tendies truly live in deep denial. All Nintendo consoles suck except NES and SNES and even on those it's the 3rd party games which are actually worth playing, never Nintnedo's own. I was wise enough to skip the N64 but got suckered into buying a Gamecube and a Wii. I wish I could still undo those decisions. 3DS I don't regret that much since I like gooning to Tharja and Camilla. Fire Emblem is the only good Nintendo first party thing, that and NES Kirby.
>>722216972>hurr durr I'm a big shit eating faggot!!!Fuck off and die
>>722217127He's being disingenuous just to piss you off, he doesn't want to debate at all. He'll tell you that the GameCube Charlie's Angels game is better than Metroid Prime
>>722217435Not an argument.
>>722216972The controls are fucking terrible even for just general navigation. First person movement with a single stick is already bad enough, but platforming in first person with a tiny narrow FOV where you can't see above or below you and not even being able to look around is fucking atrocious. It's like you're permanently stuck with toilet paper roll tubes glued to your eyes. It's especially bad since they have so many vertical jumping sections where a single slip means falling all the way to the bottom, and they throw hordes of spongy trashmobs in every fucking room that knock you down on contact. The grapple hook is implemented so fucking poorly and so jank to use. Beams take forever to change and most of the time your input is just eaten and does nothing.The lock-on is inconsistent as fuck and you constantly have to jam it repeatedly to lock onto enemies even as they're already shooting you.Holding A holding L and then having to simultaneously press B to jump and Y to super missile while still holding A and L is mind-boggling levels of pisspoor.The backtracking is incredibly tedious even for a metroidvania, and the 3D maps with clumsy movement are far worse to navigate than Super Metroid. No 2D Metroid has anywhere NEAR as bad backtracking as Prime.>I can't comment on the validity of this but I've never noticed any issues.Because you're a stupid zoomer mutt who probably played Wii or Primehack>phendrana Drifts could bring a tear to one's eyes back in the day.You're such a fucking faggot it's unreal
>>722217443Would have been interesting if Metroid Prime had actually been the worst game someone has played. I really would have liked to see what other games he would have played prior.>>722217325I believe you.
Fusion, Zero Mission, and especially Super Metroid are so much better than Prime and it's not even remotely close.It's a shame we never got a 3D Metroid from actual Nintendo of Japan devs, and instead get Cali faggot retards who couldn't design a decent action or adventure game if their lives depended on it.It's night and day difference how clunky and amateurish in design Prime is compared to the 2D games.
Now I feel bad for calling Super Metroid and Zero Mission overrated. I didn't realize how truly awful it could get. Super Metroid was a great game that had some balancing issues and tile scanning got out of hand.Zero Mission is a good game that just didn't really wow me and had similar issues to Super Metroid, except not as refined or fun to play. But wew, Metroid Prime is straight ASS. Genuine kusoge bottom of the barrel garbage for barely functioning retards. Almost every aspect of this game is horrendous and it is one of the most tedious, mind-numbing, miserable games in existence. I just hate Retro Studios with every fiber of my being.
Haloid SUCKS, turning Metroid into a FPS was a terrible mistake
>>722215954>amazing, fun, challenging platformer>make the most despicable aids bosses and just slap em inThe game is awesome but yeah the crab and the big fish can eat my whole dick and balls just like Ing Emperor in Prime 2
>>722217837Lot of valid, if overstated criticisms here. Still maintain that the platforming's really not an issue, especially with space jump boots, but a lot of these are true. Not at all difficult to acclimate to, but true. I will say that Prime's movement isn't an anomaly, devs still don't seem to have satisfying 3D movement completely mastered in the current day, let alone 20+ years ago. Even so, the game's roots as an N64 project definitely show. Also, I last played on Gamecube, though I do also own Trilogy for Wii. Never touched Primehack.
>>722218021>decent action>all you do in the 2d games are jump and spam super missilesSounds like MP1 is faithful to the games to me
>>722218747Retard.
>>722213870Bought this because I love Super Metroid and was let down by Dread's negligence of exploration and atmosphere in favour of schmoovement and combat. This is quite literally the worst of both worlds. Dogshit combat that gets forced down your throat constantly, dogshit world design that forces you to trek through the same content over and over again with your god awful movements because they ran out of time developing the game properly hard that is simply hard carried by the music, tons and tons of text to read to understand the world and story (wtf happened to environmental storytelling design?). Why tf do I need to scan a block and read my weapon log to understand which weapon I can use to destroy the block? I don't understand how people can say Super Metroid is one of the most overrated video games ever when this pile of trash exists. Super Metroid inspired an entire subgenre of video games, Metroid Prime's only legacy is its Metacritic score and being the best selling Metroid game until Dread. As a fan of the series who has played most of the 2D games, I wanted to be open-minded about the 3D games even though my impression while researching about them was that they were just walking simulators with occasional boss fights and tons of lore dump readings. I can't say I'm happy to be proven correctly. Prime 4 is looking like a joke too if their idea to fix the dogshit movement of the 3D games is via motorbike traversal in empty open zones. Wtf happened to the Speed Booster it makes literally zero fucking sense.
>>722218765>face Ridley in Super Metroid>all you do is spam missiles and super missiles as fast as you can diagonally, barely have to dodge just tank the hits if you have enough energyAt least Prime 1 Ridley you have to time your shots when he charges you
>>722218827In Metroid Prime, literally every single boss in the game is ultra-gimmicky Simon Says garbage bullet sponges, with dogshit controls, awful lock-on system, constant visor and beam shuffling, and half the time your shots just go straight through the bosses because the hitboxes are complete fucking trash. Ridley in particular has a complete joke first phase where he is fucking off-screen majority of the time and does barely anything besides facetank damage when you see him. The second phase he has barely any HP, but can only take damage in an extremely small window when his mouth is open (and even then like 90% of the time, he doesn't take any damage even when mouth is opened). If he does the spray attack, you can hit his mouth pretty easily and do a lot of damage to his chest, but his charge attack has a much, much smaller window and if he spams it over and over you are pretty much fucked, because he just sits on top of you whacking you over and over while you slowly try to pan your pisspoor FOV and move out of the way while he rams you over and over. Nevermind that you can't manually aim at the chest, you can't use powerbombs to hit his chest, you can only do the prescribed stupid, arbitrary Simon Says bullshit for the bossfight. It's just incredibly amateurish design and is peak western incompetence when it comes to action games and combat design.I struggle to think of even one single game with worst bossfights than Metroid Prime; even just one, I can't. But if only the combat was terrible, the game would still be somewhat salvageable, except unfortunately the world design, pacing, controls, platforming, and exploration are somehow even worse.
hoes mad gtab
>>722213870What we all finally agree that metroid was never good?
>>722213870>the worst game I've ever played in my lifelucky
2 is worse because it has the dark world garbage
>>722214224>Level designwhat? What's wrong with it?>Enemy design????>BossfightsThey're fine.>ControlsEh.>MovementIt's completely fine.>Lighting?????>PacingReasonable criticism.>BacktrackingThere's some bad parts but it's fine for the most part>Shitty FPS platformingActually get good, Prime has one of the better first person platforming in gaming.>constant Simon Says bullshit with beam typesThis only happens in phazon mines and last boss which is like 5% of the entire game.>enemies are massive damage spongesFFS use missile beam combos, magma beam, ice+missiles, power bombs.>generic environmentsbait?
>>722222901>Prime has one of the better first person platforming in gaming.Holy fuck, you are an absolute retard. Prime fans truly just eat shit with a smile on their face.60° FOV with no ability to look up or down unless totally stationary, single stick first-person movement, and rooms filled with spongy trashmobs that knock you off platforms to the very bottom of a long vertical shaft to start over from the very beginning. It's fucking atrocious. It's like worse than a d-tier movie tie-in shovelware yet this is somehow considered a classic
>>722223173Why are you jumping on platforms with enemies still on them?
>>722213870I really liked Prime 1 but hated 2 and 3. I dunno why. They just didn't capture my interest as much and I dropped both within 10 hours.
>>722222901>There's some bad parts but it's fine for the most partno the fuck it isn't. Even before the final artifact hunt, you retread through the same areas like a dozen times. And the last artifact hunt is just absurd, having to retread through every single area looking for the most obtuse spots imaginable. I just fucking looked it up at that point, I had zero fucking patience to do an hour backtracking round trip all the fuck way back to a location like Phazon Mines or Phendrana Drifts, all because I missed one artifact. I never look shit up in games, but this was just over the fucking top. The game is severely lacking in central shortcuts and elevators and going from one region to another requires crossing dozens upon dozens of windy, labyrinthine rooms. The overworld barely functions as an overworld, and you have to basically go through multiple entire subregions damn near end-to-end just to reach a destination>This only happens in phazon mines and last boss which is like 5% of the entire game.First of all, every single boss in the game is ultra-gimmicky Simon Says garbage bullet sponges, with dogshit controls, awful lock-on system, constant visor and beam shuffling, and half the time your shots just go straight through the bosses because the hitboxes are complete fucking trash.Second of all, Phendrana Drifts also has this color-coded Simon Says dogshit, and Phazon Mines and the final boss gauntlet are over a quarter of the game, even more if you die in these sections as they are a huge spike over anything else prior to that point. >bait?Are you fucking trolling? Hot world, cold world, rock world, grass world. It's incredibly fucking generic. >FFS use missile beam combos, magma beam, ice+missiles, power bombs.Almost all the late-game enemies require some Simon Says bullshit to kill and each one takes like 2-3 fully charged beam shots despite every room having like a dozen enemies. It's just incredibly fucking tedious.
>>722223173>no ability to look up or downdo you lack brain functionality that you can't do basic fucking calculations in your head?>trashmobs that knock you off platformsAh you ARE retarded.
>Ugh I hate Metroid Prime so much that I'm going to spend all day every day making threads about itAnd people think Dobson left the internet.>>722214767>Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub ZeroSomehow I managed to dodge that but ended up playing MKSF.
>>722222901>Eh.Lock-on barely works half the time, grappling hook is shit, the FOV is terrible, single-stick first person movement is terrible, the beam switching has a long delay to it and half the time just gets eaten, holding down A while also holding down L then having to hit Y and B while still holding A and L is just insanely fucking idiotic. >?????Most of the environments are flat and hard to read, and there are numerous times in the game where the environments are near completely pitch-black and you can barely fucking see where you're jumping (even before the thermal visor). The visors are fucking terrible and are like playing with cataracts yet numerous fights and sections of the game force you to use them for entire rooms and fights. And this is all on top of the FOV being incredibly narrow, camera panning is extremely slow, aiming up and down requires a herculean amount of effort and Samus resists you, barely able to lift or lower her arm more than a few degrees, and having to stop in place and stationary just to look in a direction without moving towards it.
>>722223760>>722223468Are you fucking retarded? I'm not jumping on top of them, they have ranged attacks that knock you off. You have to clear every enemy out of the room before you can safely platform without being knocked off. Worst part is that for tall vertical sections, the enemies up high won't aggro you until you get high up, so as soon as they aggro you, you get knocked instantly to the bottom again.I even had one instance in that tall room in Phazon Mines, where an enemy was on the very top and I could not fucking see him from any angle. But every time after I spider-ball through the path (where I'm completely defenseless, unable to do anything, suspended over a massive pit), THEN he fucking shoots me and I fall all the way to the bottom. Turns out he was on the way upper platform where you have no way to aim at him, so I have to go to the very edge of a catwalk, manually aim up, aim towards a single pixel of his head showing and then blindfire a fucking super missile right there and fortunately he was yellow (so vulnerable to super missiles) and that did just manage to barely hit him or I would basically be forced to reload a save. It's almost as if no one even tested this dogshit fucking game. I genuinely can't think of ANYTHING this game does well except maybe the main menu theme and Magmoor theme are decent. That's it. It's irredeemable trash in every aspect.
>>722224080To be fair, it's been a really long time since I've played a game this awful.
>>722224080I think I saw a few people with a similar take except without Other M shilling.
>>722213870Imagine how good you must have it that this is the worst game you have ever played
>>722224479I've beat 72 games this year, Metroid Prime is the worst one so far.
>>722214767The worst game I played that I actually beat was probably DMC2. I am not sure if I should count games I played for a few minutes and then stopped because I found them to be trash. Because there would be plenty of games I dropped.I also remember this shmup that was free on XBL arcade back in the 360 era. Just don't remember its name. It was absolute generic trash though despite me beating it. Stupidly easy game just like DMC2.
>>722224809You are baiting
>Not a first persona shooter!Yeah, except in the last third of the game where it becomes a space pirate gang bang.And unlike most other shooters at that stage, you have to use specific weapons rather than whatever you enjoy using from the arsenal you built up.
>>722224978
>>722225201You are still baiting stupid faggot. Metroid Prime is not a bad game.
>>722225331Yes, it absolutely is. It was so bad it almost made me retroactively hate DKTF just for being from the same studio. It kinda makes sense that DKTF was good though, as it's almost the complete polar opposite of Metroid Prime's design.
>Mouthwashing 8.25>DD 8.75LMAO
>>722225584>GRUG SAY GAME BAD BECAUSE MODERNget new material
Sex with balls
>>722218809Maybe they should turn the Prime series into a cozy walking simulators / puzzle adventure. That can help it capture femoids and ADHD zoomers I guess. But also that'd mean they need to make it a budget gaming franchise as well because these games can't have flagship price tags. Just look at how much Princess Peach Showtime flopped, and that's a Mario character with infinitely more mainstream awareness and appeal.
>>722226701Retro Studios should just stick to linear 2D games. They clearly are incompetent when it comes to 3D or open-world/metroidvania design. It's a shame we never got a 3D Metroid from the Super Metroid team.
>>722226780Metroid aesthetics also filters most female gamers. They'd need to ramp up the vaginal symbolism and make the alien worlds more emo / gothic instead of mechanical. Just let Sakamoto turn Metroid into Famicom Detective Club but with soft sci-fi or even, dare I say it, cyberpunk aesthetics.
so why is this retard spamming the board? https://arch.b4k.dev/v/search/image/4zxX4zyqFbauHQo__6XFPA/
