>>725948712>>725948873You've just learned new skill: Breathing!THAT JUST HAPPENED
>>725949127So..we breathing now or...
>>725949127Oh wow! Wow wow wow wow! Am I breathing? On an alien planet? 21% Oxygen, okay. Heh. Okay, uh, that's convenient!
Epic win
So I'm supposed to get angry about this because it's "le cringe" or something? Why should I care?
>>725949561it's marvel writing
>>725949561you're not supposed to do anything anon, it's okay to have personal convictions, even if it means enjoying slop.
>>725948712Who the fuck thought the inclusion of the most American looking and sounding person ever would be a good fit for a Metroid game?
>>725950546Me. I'm sorry.
I personally don't think that Metroid Prime 4 is a good measure of the Switch 2's power, because it wasn't developed by Nintendo's in-house EPD studios.Metroid Prime 4 looking as real as it does, to me, is the equivalent of a third-party like Ubisoft optimizing Assassin's Creed Shadows so it can run on the Nintendo Switch 2 hardware.
>>725950546Metroid has always been more popular in the US than in Japan.That on top of Nintendo having the new mandate of "must have companion to tell you what to do at all times" and "must have open world" with nobody left at Retro to push back on the awful ideas like they used to.
>>725949561It genuinely made me laugh out loud
millennial cringe is le random sitcom writing but zoomer cringe is just streamer references. both are equally very cringe
>>725951029Nintendo games look like shit. See Bananza and Mario Kart: Breath of the Wild for what they can do
the quirk chungification of writing and its consequences [7:03:44]
>>725951264Millennial cringe humor is funny. It's inspired by Tim and Eric and The Office. Zoomers just legitimately make you cringe in an uncomfortable way.
>>725948712QUICK!WRITE DIALOUGE THAT WOULD BE BETTER FOR THIS SCENE RIGHT NOW!
>>725951601I just wouldn't include the scene.
>>725948873you are a victim!
>>725951601There is no dialogue because he's alone. He's just laying on the floor and panicking about how he's about to die while he tries to get a connection to the federation.
>>725951713The federation ruined the entire metroid series if you think about it
>>725951601>Metroid gameNo dialogue at all
Ohhhh boy. Wow. WOWZA. Big yikes, major yikes, ultra-deluxe cosmic yikes.
>>725951314Those were meant to be Switch 1 games, but, for Mario Kart World, the Switch 1 couldn't render everything, and for Donkey Kong Bananza, the developers wanted to add more detail.The next 3D Mario is being developed on Switch 2 hardware.
>>725948712>shoots missile too open door>Did…did you just use a missile to open a door? Huh, you do know the missiles are like used to killed the dangerous alien human eating creatures around this planet, huh yeah, anyway, what do i know, you’re the legendary Samus Aran, I’m sure you know better, huuuh so yeahhh, I’m going to log off now, byeee, i mean over…hello, huh sorry is this thing still on, oh yeah it is
>>725951601You can have a dork clutz perfectly fine, just make him be genuinely terrified without a hint of irony and not talking out loud to nobody. Use body language for fuck's sake, or at least do the "attempting to use the dead comms" or "audio log" bit.
>>725951817ok, then sell it for $40 if your game consists of rooms with enemies and bosses, dont charge AAA price if you’re still making GameCube tier games
>>725948712>Wears hyper advanced space suit>Still needs glasses
reminder that people knew millennial writing as cringe a long ass time ago but they kept doing it. this is from the writing room of workaholics, it's banned words/phrases and they have like 2 other boards full too
>>725948712Actually according to my computational machine, the atmosphere here resembles that of Earth meaning that it consists of 25 percent nitrogen, 15 percent oxygen, it;s really quite somethign you see*looks up at samus who is not saying or reacting to anything*gurr errm ill just go back to opening the doors for you hnnmmg
>>725948712>*record scratch*>*freeze frame*>yep, that's me>you're probably wondering how I ended up on this alien planet>it all started back at the office with Phil...
>>725948712What even is this?
if this character was a dorky waifu or even a dorky female robot absolutely nobody here would have an issue with this and there'd already be a mountain of rule 34.
>>725948712To think Dread came out four years ago.
>>725951601did you post this image from a 3ds
>>725952337
>>725948873>I just killed a franchise with my freakin whine.
>>725950503>if you like Metroid games it now means you enjoy slophahaha fuck off
>>725952418yeah I'm sure /v/ would be ecstatic to have more sassy women or claptraps in games, that's exactly what we need
>>725952459
>>725952461if you like metroid games then this blabbering fucking faggot should enrage you on concept alone
>>725948712Getting huge "made before 2024 election" vibes from this desu..
I just watched for the first time one of those gay tendie ecelebs you guys always shill (the gay elmo puppet) and he sounded like he was literally crying, that coupled with the bizarre reverence he has for his favorite corpo franchise makes for a cocktail of hilarity.
>>725952889can I see it kind sir?
>>725949561Press gangs. Look up historical usage, they want to kidnap and extort men into joining the military.
>>725951601>Sounds of screaming as a human unfit for the dangerous environment is being assaulted by the hostile wildlife.
>>725952889That's like the first video I watched of Blue Elmo in years. He was mad.
>>725948712I've lurked on some of the threads here since the announcement and just gotta say: Sorry Metroidbros, you were done dirty. Who the fuck came up with this faggot, really. Like who said "yup, people will love him!". It boggles the mind
>>725952889You will have an aneurysm when the next 3D Mario is revealed to be a cinematic experience with real gameplay.
>>725952418>>725952490
>>725950995Aw shucks, Anon. I can’t stay mad at you.
this is why nintendo games should never have voice acting
>>725953376You posted Aw shucks earlier
>>725948712I'm upset. This is literally that sojack face with the mouth open facing front with the glasses and big nose.
Why does he say win so weird? I couldn't make out what the fuck he was saying.
>>725951601Dude starts speaking but gets instantly pulped by an enemy, starting a combat sequence for Samus.
>>725948712This is going to be the guy who makes Samus smile, and make a funny joke about honoring that promised date.And you will clap afterwards.
>>725951314Yes everything should look like Zelda remade in Unreal Engine. Excellent opinion, anon.
>>725952337seems like it's just phrases that were popular on the reddit/tumblr/twitter at the timei think it's an almost impossible problem to fight because all writers are terminally online and the majority of their creative writing is posting on social media.
>>725953409Trust me.It is better this way.Nintendo will reinvent the moviegame with the next 3D Mario.
WOAH SAMUS DID YOU JUST DO THAT?!?! Frickin Epic for the win....
>>725948712tendies are just shit out of luck it seemsthis game's first impression is really good, but then this fucking shit happens lol
>>725951601>"This is bad... Samus, where are you?"Cut, print, ship.
>>725953598>OPs reaction when Samus discloses her ass has been completely rearranged, has feather pubes and SA-X secretions.
All of the art design has been pulling from Gieger more heavily than the series ever has before. If they're really returning to the series' Alien roots, then maybe nerd-san and all the rest of the crew will be picked off one by one over the course of the game (with Sylux playing the Alien role), and the cutscene they showed of them celebrating finding a way home is early in the game.Massive cope I know
>>725953449Don’t think I did, bro. Think you’re getting confused. Not everyone who says a common phrase are the same person.
>>725953776Too bad.We are getting an open-world 3D Mario cinematic experience.
>encounters a hostile alien eating something"Errrrm... I can haz cheezburger?">gets backed into a corner>"Now im wewy wewy angwy! Behold! Teh spork of d00m!"
>>725953776>this game's first impression is really good...?
>>725948712How does Samus just not emote during this? Samus should be laughing, and making snide penis jokes whenever this guy bundles around like a typical MCU female.
>>725952459>I absorbed my twin in the wombLegitimately have never heard this from this type of writing. Why would that even come up?
>>725952224voice acting is not a new age phenomenon and bad voice acting doesn't justify a game being regular price
it wasn't notable until you monkeys started jumping up & down about it
>>725951710COMEPLAYMYGAME
>>725954104Oh look, he’s back with a trip.Fucking kill yourself.
You three snoys are just mad because Nintendo makes better cinematic experiences than Sony.
>>725953376Thanks :)
>>725954402What did I ever do to you?
>>725953968Nintendo has been veering towards kiddie even more in recent years, It might have been a thing in 2017.
>>725954185that part's lame but likely short, but the alien world and how the game starts out truly look like a game of What The People Want
>>725954517Made threads about gaming’s biggest IP unbearable. The switch to tripfaggotry just proves that you’re as cancerous as anons pegged you for from the start and need to be made sparse.
>>725948712Does anyone ese think Nintendo should have just made a off branch IP with just federation soldiers? They could have had their own "Halo" but also kept Metroid more intact ,with limited overlap.
>>725951601>UOOOOAAAAHHH CUNNY CUNNY TOT!!!!
>>725954787Well gaming's biggest IP obviously has a daughter.
>>725951601Judging from his phenotype, facial expression, and gesturing>"The size of Tyrone's penis in my sister's anus was really something!"
>>725949127You did NOT just start breathing.
>>725955036Why are you so mean?
>>725955112Get lost nigger, no one wants to see you die on the sword of "MCU humor is good if Nintendo does it".
>>725955214Come on, Anon.Imagine the next 3D Mario being Mario and his daughter, flying around the galaxy together, stopping Bowser's ex-wife from taking over the galaxy, and draining the sun of its energy.Everyone from the past Mario games would be in it, the graphics would be stunning, there would be amazing storytelling, it would print money.
>>725955796You truly put the faggot in tripfaggot
>>725955942No I don't.
>>725949561You are goyim. You enjoy the slop trough.
>>725952721it does, it's also just not enough to get to me to think Metroid is ruined forever, billions must die, etc.
>>725951601>sits up, looks around>grasps his head, groans; "where am I?">checks his instruments>begins a cursory investigation of the planet's atmosphere, and upon verifying the air is breathable, takes his helmet off>sees Samus>"I'll stay here and see what equipment I can salvage.

Yeah I think you don't want to miss that missile tank unless you like hate missiles or something... which is like totally cool I'm just saying since this is an alien planet where everything wants to murder you and all... but you do you
>>725954185this screenshot is just awful I can't believe it
>>725949561>Why should I care?Metroid is about exploring atmospheric alien planets in isolation. This guy is literally going to ruin the entire experience. He's also yellow paint: the character and is going to spell everything out for you and "guide" you, annoyingly, through the gameplay like you're a retard.
>>725948873CHOCOLATE RAIN
>>725959496:( i hope you're wrong
>>725959496>turns off voiceswow game saved
They should make the new metroid game like cave story. Have some friendly npcs but make them cute and keep them out of the way until they inevitably get killed
>>725959849> they should make good metroid gameyeah, that's what we wanted for the last 30 years
metroidsnoys lost
>>725951601Someone did this yesterday and honestly, the difference is brutal desu.
Does samus actually do any bounty hunting
>>725959816the text will still be there and he'll be around doing faggot shit, experience ruined
>>725960343Damn that is a stellar writing
>>725960630no then we'd actually have a game that knows what it is like witcher 3
>>725960713Goes to show how less is more sometimes
>>725954878>what is federation force
>>725960343>>725960713wait this isn't just the normal cutscene?
>>725961130I’m guessing anon took out yellow paint’s dialogue
>>725960713infinitely better than original and much cheaper too
Who are they doing this writing for? Who the fuck likes this? It has to only be a small amount of players.
>>725962515little kids playing this game idfk
>>725962615Little kids don't play Metroid.
>>725952418>if this character was a dorky waifu or even a dorky female robotPeople didn't like it in that shitty squeenix game with the hood chick.
How is it possible to misunderstand the appeal of Metroid this hard? Like you don't even need to be a hardcore fan or intelligent to do so. It just boggles my mind that they thought this was a good idea.
>>725962870idk maybe they think they do. or maybe japs just like these kinds of characters
What are the chances that nintendo realizes this is retarded and they do a 360 and remove this guy from the game?
>>725960630She's not really a Bounty Hunter. That's a localization thing. She's more of a free-lance Galactic Federation worker or some kind of mercenary.
>>725962870I did. My nephew did.
I hope babysitting these federation shitters won't be required to progress through an area.
>>725948712>I just killed Metroid Prime with my mind
>>725963082Sadly, this will probably make sure normalfags don't quit the game in the first hour because they don't know where to go or what to do. I bet this will be the best selling Metroid game to date.
>>725963482there's not a single moment in the previews where some guy isn't tagging along and quipping
>>725963152Less than 1%. The game is basically complete at this point and they are marketing it for release.
Dont worry. Sylux will kill all of them within the early game.
>>725963152Zero, you simply have to accept that it's happening.
>>725952337>____? More like ____This is always funny and I’ll die on that hill
>>725951601"...""......"
>>725964272Hello? Is this thing on?
>>725963447Errrm, you just described bounty hunting.... with extra steps....
all human interactions in metroid should be limited to hand gestures, body language, and screaming
>>725964623But she's like a bounty hunter (good guy), right?. Usually bounty hunters just go for anyone if there's good money involved.
>>725948712Millennial writing is here to stay!You lost zoomchud
>>725960343If i was a metroid fan i would be more enraged with the game looking like a halo 4 rip off (2012 game btw). lead artist was one of 343 senior modelershttps://metroid.fandom.com/wiki/Kyle_Hefley
>>725963448Yeah but you two are stinky losers.
>>725949561You WILL be ragebaited!!
Hahahaha this dude is hilarious! I relate to him because I also am a reddit mod and drink onions! Best new companion ever! Autism is my super power!
>>725948712Wheadon and his imitators have been a disaster for popular media
>>725948712I sure can't wait for him to never shut the fuck up
>>725948712Just wanted to let everyone know that I was already expecting the American made open-world slop game to be bad before the American writing made itself known and if you were actually expecting the game to be good then you're a nostalgiabaited dumby who's brain is still stuck in the 00s.
>>725965106Hell yeah brother I'm giving you hella reddit gold for dis post! cool that I smoke a fat bowl while I eat my afternoon fruity loops?
>>725952337>this is from the writing room of workaholicsThat show is entirely faggy millennial humor though. Hahahahahaha "this is tight buttholes"
>>725954282It's a joke said by Dwight from the office
>>725964756Okay, okay, listen, Samus, I know you’re, like, super hardcore bounty-hunter-lady-of-legend, but I'm kinda like all outta cash on kinda right now, I promise I will totally help you find an ATM or whatever future-space-bank thing we can use to pay you...But could I maybe, possibly, pretty please have an heroic intervention ASAP because there is a gigantic, aggressively moist alien troll-beast lumbering toward me right now, and it smells like someone left an armpit inside a microwave.
>>725949561>>725951210>>725964969>>725952461>t. shitposted other games with similar dialogue
>>725964153Depends how good the wordplay is.
>>725965430everyone laughed at tendies when open empty desert world was revealed, this American writing is cherry on top
>>725965264I like Joss Whedon's writing. Buffy and Firefly are two of my favorite tv shows. I also liked the first Avengers movie and the Astonishing X-men comic he wrote. His imitators I agree with, though. I don't think I've ever seen an imitation I've liked. The Thracia 776 translation patch being one of my most hated.
>>725963482You get a game over if you let them die
this is Federation Force all over again
>>725959496No, Metroid is about shooting aliens.
>>725966570They should delay this shit a few months to reduce their importance and dialogue if they can't outright patch them out.
The labored defense of this guy and coping it's alright from people on Twitter is sad. I know it's par for the course with Nintendo Adults but with Metroid it's somehow much worse to see.
>>725948712I'm looking forward to seeing Vinny's reaction to this character
>>725948712God fucking damn it. I was willing to overlook the "open world" slop but this is a kick in the nuts. Metroid is supposed to be about exploration and ISOLATION. You are ALONE in an unknown and unforgiving environment. That was part of the appeal, that was part of the aesthetic. Now we not only aren't going to be alone but we get some bumbling retard fucker to punch holes all over that somber and oppressive aesthetic. This is going to ruin the game.
>>725968058same
>>725968076That's boring, women need character drama to maintain interest, they can't relate to silent protagonists and loner's.
based devs not listening to the fans, in two months time there will be hundreds of fanart shipping Samus with Chuddy Nerdstein and you will like it
I'm just not going to buy videogames anymore.
>>725969601Just don't buy American shit, they are all going out of business anyway.
>>725953968It's spelled "Giger", you ESL faggot.
>>725969910>proper noun elitist
>>725969647Japanese companies don't make Japanese games anymore. Their games are casualized like Western games, with shitty millennial writing (and no, it's not just the retard localizers doing that)... anime doesn't even look Japanese anymore. They all try to pander to Western tastes.I'm DONE. I'm finding new hobbies.
>>725949127I just inhaled with my freaking lungs!
>>725949561If you’re a fan of the series you should definitely care unless you just want something with the series name stamped on it whether it holds up to the legacy or not.
>>725970192See you tomorrow
>>725970203I am currently aware of my breathing.Oh fuck, I am currently aware of my breathing.
>>725970192I don't know if you're paying attention but the entire world is pulling funding from America and Europe. East Asian studios have realised they can reach global audiences without westerners. Sony is regretting investing so heavily in America instead of Japan while all the major Japanese publishers reach all time high profitability.Japan either returns to being Japanese or they go out of business.
>>725948712Turn this into a meme before the game releases.
>>725970635Cope.Only based chinks are independent
>>725948712is this samus new love interest?
>Famitsu is calling people snoy trannies left and right for saying that they don't like the quirky reddit characters>every single criticism is met with "stop being a doomer faggot"And they said those threads weren't just hugboxes.

>>725970921China worships B B C.
>>725949561You're rightMetroid was never good
>>725952224Make the game free if you are gonna put in shitty reddit dialogue.
wait a minute.. I don't care about Metroid!
In retrospect, this should be expected after Prime 3 which had quite a bit of chatty NPCs and "story".
>>725970305the series has been garbage for over two decades
>>725972725Ironic since nintendo fans used to be the ones against snoy movies, but I guess now it's okay when Nintendo does it.Them defending Other M as a masterpiece should've been the warning signal beforehand.
>>725951601From watching the dialogue, the problem is actually that Samus DOESN’T talk. She doesn’t need to say much, doesn’t need to make any jokes, but just say enough to turn it into a conversation and make it all less awkward.
>>725972725Better devs would have identified that Prime 3 worked but dialogue/cutscene wise the furthest it could possibly be pushed without falling apart.
>>725972725Dialogue existing is really not the problem.its the fact that he's commenting on everything in the game unprompted with the humor of a redditor. When I wanna take in the atmosphere of the jungle, I don't want this goober telling me about what to do.The underlying premise of samus rescuing stranded GFed grunts is fine. Them having small bits of voice acted dialogue is fine. Even having some sections where they work with you in gameplay is fine. I just don't want them to talk unless its a cutscene or its prompted by some type of player input. I don't want tutorial dialogue trying to tell me what to do.This isn't game ruining for me, but its annoying and theres no need to make it so intrusive
>>725951095>"must have companion to tell you what to do at all times" Metroid already tried that with Adam in Fusion and Other M and everyone hated it. It's amazing how much time can pass and people still won't learn the simplest of lessons.
>>725974787It was annoying in Dread as well>Samus blahblahblah don't fight Emmi blahblahblah The Surface blahblah RavenBeak
>>725951601>"SAMUS! HELP ME!"
>>725948712Why did this guy break /v/ so hard??
>>725965639That wasn't a joke.
ATTENTIONI will NOT be buying Prime 4 if it has reddit humor or reddit vibes.Thank you for your attention on this matter.

>>725975045Pull down you panties if you need more attention
>>725949561Not very Metroid to me.
>>725974985because he's based
>>725974985Because some fucking retard from Austin worships capeshit and he inserted his heckin comedic quipperinos into Metroid.It's not even anger, this thing is so out of fucking place that it's actually baffling how it wasn't noticed by an entire studio

>>725975557>there's nothing wrong with a tension breaking character in a game about tense isolated exploration or being constantly told what to do like you are a retardoh ok
What a massive fucking blow. They almost convinced me when they uploaded that OST that felt identical to something from Prime 1 or 2. I hope for all millenial redditors to be fucking scalped.
>>725948712Another nail in Nintendo's coffin.>>725949561Just consume. Nobody really cares what a retard like you does.

>>725960343Not to be pedantic but>creature is lurking in the shadow as the protagonists are alert>we see through it's eyes>creature jumps out and emits a ferocious roar!!!Why is shit like this so insanely common to the point it becomes an established cliche? Videogame companies really are awfully repetitive with this kind of shit.Still not as bad as game trailers having the "epic action" cadence and music.
>>725977335It's funny that the 90s frequently featured a camera POV of the creature rapidly approaching the main characters and attacking them and yet nowadays it's really underutilized.
>>725977335>do the other repetitive thing instead of this repetitive thingI'm tired, hoss
I want a Metroid game where I play as the enemy and fuck Samus.

>>725953776>>725954185I saw this and my first instinct was to let out a kong exhale. I didn’t even realise how sick of the open world meme I was until this shit. They did it with Zelda. They did it poorly with Mario Kart. They’ve done shitty sort of attempts with Pokemon. Not they’re doing Metroid. I get it for Zelda. I can get it for Pokemon. But why the fuck Mario Kart and Metroid? What part of these games make them think they should be fucking open world? They aren’t even showing cool shit. It’s just a bland, generic, desert. It just feels like they're doing it for the sake of it for fuck’s sake.

>>725976595punish them, anon
>>725948712The whole discourse around this has been really bizarre to me. Game journalists that I previously hated have all come out and said they hate Miles, an opinion I agree with. But not only am I agreeing with game journalists but I also see people on Twitter and whatnot calling people that hate Miles "tourists" to the franchise because Metroid Prime 3 had NPCs even though I've been playing Metroid since Metroid 1 for the NES.
I want a gory metroid game
>>725963152They already did that with the entire game though lol. They purposefully want it to be bad so they don't have to one up it in the future.
>>725999238Doesn't she say freakin' in Forspoken? I can't be asked to look it up
>>725948712Can I just shoot him? Or abandon him to be killed? The reason the fed troopers were so cool in Echoes and Corruption is because we knew very little about them, the Echoes troopers were all already dead when Samus got to Aether and all we got from them were small snippets of how they were doing before they were taken out by the Ing, some were acting professionally and trying to hold out while waiting for help, some were going insane, some were holding onto stories of Samus to keep from falling into despair and some were kinda assholes to the others, and we get a very small window into their tragedy.The troopers in Corruption are more omnipresent given the general tone of the game, Samus is no longer alone on an almost dead planet but working on joint missions with the Federation in the Federation's very own star system, but the only soldier we get to know beyond just having the option to talk to them during ops is Admiral Dane who always conducts himself with the utmost professionalism given his station.Even Addam's platoon in Other M were mostly just there to be killed by MB or the Deleter and didn't talk much, outside of the black one who I despised.Really I wish none of these idiots were here but I can tolerate them if they just behave professionally, but this nerd twat and the dumb bitch seem like they're going to be fucking painful to interact with.

>metroid got borderlands 2ifiedjesus christ, fucker's just a human claptrap
why don't you vocalize your backlash somewhere where Nintendo will actually see it
>>726006684>signing a petition like some loserHow'd that Megaman Legends 3 one go? That's what I thought.
There's footage of Miles upgrading your beams on the Nip website (I think). Given the desert seemingly allowing access to all the major zones at once, I'm guessing this is Retro's attempt to introduce some non-linearity to Prime's progression by allowing you to choose which upgrades to get and when. Which would make me much more excited if it weren't tied to fucking Miles.
>>725948873*coughs*
>>725949127THEY BREATHE NOW?
>>725952337More like 5 am.
What if Nintendo restarted development with Retro because the original version was just normal Metroid without talking NPCs guiding you through each step?
>>725948712Neets simply don't understand the pain of working in an office building. That shit was so fucking miserable. Worst years of my life
>>725949127Did I just do that? Oh, I definitely did that
I think all these GF trooper characters will be a "red herring" anyway like in Prime 3 and Other M, but even saying that, it's not good for the advertising of the game.

>>725949127Give me a breather here. We gotta unpack this.
>>725958404This gives me reboot powerpuff girl vibes
>>726004186Sakamoto? Is that who we have to blame for this shit?
>>726004664Japanese people have this weird thing where they can't let go if another culture/country one ups their own creation.
To be desuuuuuuuuuuu maybe it'll work. Metroid Prime 3 was the lowest selling game in the Prime series in a greater (as in larger) series that already doesn't sell well by Nintendo standards. The people upset by this, myself included, are the diehard Metroid fans. But the diehard Metroid fans keep Metroid afloat forever. They have to experiment to figure out how to turn Metroid into a money moving machine. One of the highest rated video game series of all time, and it always sells low. Nintendo needs to bridge that gap. It is what it is.
>>726009281>But the diehard Metroid fans keep Metroid afloat forever.Fuck I meant to say the diehard Metroid fans CAN'T keep Metroid afloat forever. Because they can't.
>>726006684The game is two and a half weeks from release, there's probably some complete physical copies ready for shipping to stores. Nintendo revealed these NPCs far too late.
>>726007112>tied to fucking milesDo I at least get to top
>>726010338Samus is an obvious power bottom, I'm afraid.
Glasses is fucking stupid in the era Metroid takes place in. At least most of the characters of Other M & Prime 3 fit into their world.
>>726010647not by default but she gets one as an upgrade
>>725948712honestly, my issue with this guy is that if he was a random NPC you COULD protect through the game, for no dialogue or extra scenes, like the marines from silent cartographer, i would go out of my way to protect them, killing all other enjoyment of the game to do so.but because the game says i have to, i know theres no real point to it, because either he cant die, or ill be forced to restart if he does.the dialogue doesn't matter, because i already hate him as something that doesn't fit in a metroid game, where the ONLY npcs you meet are, on radio, in your mind, or literal animals you save on your way out of a detonating space station.
If only you knew how bad things really are.
>>725948712I'm just confused by why this writing is so stuck in the past. No one has said "win?" in over a decade and even back then it was cringey to hear it spoken out loud.

You know, rather than getting upset about the Feddie NPCs, it weirdly felt a bit like a weight was lifted. I was no longer concerned about how the desert and bike would affect things, because it could get no worse than this and the game could no longer fail to meet my expectations.
>>726012389>it could get no worse than thisDo you really believe that? When Samus turned into a little bitch at the sight of Ridley in Other M people thought we hit rock bottom, but here we are drilling deeper
>>726012601Other M is way worse than this, wtf are you on about?
Even Metroid got the Disney Marvel millennial writing treatment. I think Nintendo's dead, familia.
>>725948712Man, I was so excited for a new Metroid game until I saw this. The countdown for when Nintendo goes broke has finally begun...

>>725977335It clearly depends on what type of animal it is and what they're after. Like if they're legitimately preying on you then it's retarded because then they'd rather keep the element of surprise and stealth you. But territorial beasts often do exactly that, as they typically prefer to intimidate potential threats away from their territory as opposed to engaging in avoidable conflicts.
>>726013351Super cosmic irony zone! We'll have to unwrap this one very, very carefully. With coffee. A lot of coffee.

>>726012959it's worse but in a different way, other M is conceptually distasteful but this is an immediate visceral kind of off-putting.
>trying to rip the game's clear Otacon analog companionThe desert bike is one thing, but Nintendo trying to crack the companion code for Samus is to be lauded. Sticking her alone on a foreign planet for the umpteenth time without ANY interpersonal development is not reasonable.Nintendo devs are absolutely correct. Explanatory companions are a must-have. So who is the explanatory companion going to be? This is their (objectively correct) answer. Male goofball nerd opposite hardened and cold Samus.
>>725948712OY VEY MY ASTHMA
>>726008061kek
Now that the game has been confirmed to have multiple escort quests, how little hope do you have left?
>>726000396i'm not saying they wouldn't fuck it up, but open world seems more suited to Metroid than any of those franchises. it was always the series about sequence breaking and being able to go anywhere with enough ingenuity. being able to explore an entire planet seems like the logical next step for the franchise, not that Prime 4 seems to be doing a good job of that
>>725957217>>725960343>>725951713I would be okay with any of these
>>726004308Of course you cannot abandon him.You will get a critical mission failure game over if any of the troopers die.It's obvious now how they have designed the game.You go to a new area. The new area has a trooper or two which you need to rescue. You will have a nice escort mission and they will reward you with a suit upgrade.Classic Metroid experience.
>>726016649Imagine if the classics had trooper escort missions. All this time, Kraid was the hero we never knew we needed
>>725948712Lol, lmao. Will still sell 10 million copies. Tendies have no standards

>stays behind to fix a fed mechthis faggot is bursting into the final boss to save you, you cannot escape him
>>726017494They will call you SuperMetroidSnoys in around 6 months
>>725948712this is legitimately subnautica/subnautica below zero again. hugely disappointingI'll only check it out if you niggers provide palliative evidence that it's not as bad as that IGN video indicates. but gl because shitposters are the loudest faggots on the board.
>>726008837He was based for not only trying to do this but succeeding and having it broadcast.
>>726018273Those of us with some standards are already being called "chuds" and "incels" for not liking this shit writing, and just the fact that Samus is getting a sidekick at all.
>>725948712>>725948873>>725949127The trilogy is complete
>>725950503>>725956126>>725959496>>725970305But I never played Metroid or whatever and don't care about the series.
>>726021403>i never played the series nor cared about it so here's my opinion about something i know nothing about and doesn't affect me
>>726017494>says good writing is bad>just wants plain objective markersautism
>>725948712Why is he so ugly and quirky? What happened to the Daniel Jackson archetype? Was it completely erased by Marvel?
I miss him
>>726022227>What happened to the Daniel Jackson archetype?You need a good actor and good writers for that
>>725985568>if the dude was swapped with the girl leaving the dialogue intact you faggots would be gobbling it upOf course.
>>725948712>"But you're also not sitting next to Phil anymore in that cubicle.">While he's being Samus's Phil himself
The reality is the days of Samus being completely alone like in Super and Prime 1 are over. You are NEVER going to see a Metroid game like those again. Every game going forward is going to have at least one NPC. The budgets for these games are starting to get so large that they need to appeal to a wider demographic to justify the cost, especially with Nintendo expanding into films as well.
>>725951601Silence is golden. you don't need some retard blabbering every fucking second.
>>725948712For comparisonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XlrywxWfpyMWhy does one work so good but the other is so cringe?
>>726026423both are lame
Just got an ounce in the mail.
You're all going to look stupid when this ends up being the best selling Metroid game to date.
>>726026771RE6 was one of the best selling RE games when it came out
>WELP THAT JUST HAPPENEDWho's idea was it to add this to Metroid? They probably see their audience like him BTW.
>>726022305he was in the trailer
Which writer's self insert was this character?
>>725948712samus will finally lose her virginity to autistic tech bro side kick. midwits keep seething.
>>726026771Rules of /v/:If the brownies are spamming in anger, it's going to be good.If the brownies are spamming saying a thing is good, it's shit
>>725948712I guess Phil must be a real asshole
Shame, second series I love to insert something I absolutely hate. Digimon with the goat kid MAMOROUUUUU bsAnd now this. It's all so fucking tiresome
>>725949898Didn’t Marvel make a ton of money with their movies
People would love this retard so long as he didn't have to take his mask off for no reason.
>>726030841And if he didn't talk? Now he's basically a robot etecoon. So yes
>>725972467>Retro Studios dev on /v/What a time to be alive.
Desu I'm still very excited
>>725979012Miyazaki was right to say what ultimately got memed as "anime was a mistake".
does the Japanese version read any better?
>>726022108Cute damage control.
>>726026771>>726029243>can't defend game, deflects to sales instead
>>726021403why are you posting in a metroid thread then anon?
>>725979012personnel is policy. who is hiring, and on what criteria?
Myles just comes off as that one character you wanna see die early on (Samus included) that will become less cringe over timeThat or he dies fairly early
Absolutely disgustingHoly fuck just burn it all down
>>726026153But how would you know what to think and feel if nobody told you?
>>725949127It's a kids game aimed primarily at kids. That's kiddie humor. Why would you expect anything else from Nintendo? Weird manbabies whining over children's products that aren't aimed at that whatsoever.
>>725952337Is va-jay-jay what I think it is?
>>725985404
>>725948873*farts* Heh I guess that Taco bell™ meal wasnt very compatible with my large intestine, better order from Wendys™ from now on. Use GoyScam30 for 30% off on your next purchase at Wendys™
>>726039668Other Metroid games also were supposedly aimed at children and they did not have this problemWhy are you being a dishonest cuck. Anyone can see that
>>725981347>It can devalue things that people made. Your shitty furry altverse fanfic actively hurts the value of my cool thing that made lots of money.This has literally has never happened.Hunt Down the Freeman is the only example I can think of where a fanfic fan game was outrageously fucking horrible, and y'know what? Didn't do ONE fucking iota to Half-Life's rep. Wanna know why? Because it's shitty fanfiction that has no bearing or weight on the official franchise.
>>725982289>Portal 2 reference in the same game franchise as a half-dead space pirate floating in a tank being constantly drained of it's life force by the metroids around it.I fucking love portal 2 but this is fucking retarded and doesn't belong in Prime. This really feels like they're making a game for the 'modern audience' (derogatory) and not fans of the fucking series they're making a entry for.
>>725985568No one likes whiny bitch dudes, but tolerates whiny bitch chicks? Wow, big surprise.
>>725948873FPBP.Imagine caring about this enough to chimp out about it.You should instead be chimping out because Prime 4 killed Dread 2.
>>725964898Halo 4 had retro studios employees who worked on prime 1-3's art on it, would not be surprised if they jumped ship with 343 and went back to retro
>>725985568>Did you just do that? You did not just do that. You just moved shit with your mind. You just moved shit... with your mind. You just moved shit. With your freaking mind! Ha ha!It'd be just as garbage. If it was an anime loli though, you might have had a point
>>725963447It's not a localization thing, her profession was a bounty hunter from the start. Problem is nintendo didn't know what a bounty hunter actually did and just called her one because it sounded cool, same thing with captain falcon
>>725981347>We can avoid this without being commies.and yet, in the last 50 years we didntCurious
>>725948712How do people who write like this even still exist in the year of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ 2025? What fucking time machine are they leaking out from?
>>725951710Like 2 years ago, I saw an old guy stop at a red light. He must've been in his late-50s/early-60s, white with blotchy skin, balding, riding a big Harley trike, blasting Exhale by The Prodigy. I almost saluted that old man. I hope to reach that level of confidence and security one day.
>>726039668>kids love marvel quipshmm
>>726044170well? did you breathe with him?
>>725952337>>725952459i dont find any of these really obnoxious, its all about the delivery. if something is happening and its part of background banter while viewer attention is occupied with action or scenery then its fine.if such dialogue is the focus and there are poignant pauses and according pacing - yea, its dogshit.
>>725959816>video games are being taken over and rotted from the inside out by people that know nothing about themI think that's the greater point that OP is putting down.It's what we're all saying.
>Ridley appears next to npc>"He's right behind me, isn't he..?"
The people defending him are Bing bing wahoo nintendofags who don't get that Metroid Prime has always been a relatively moody series so of fucking course adding a comedic relief character that completely goes against that tone in favor of light hearted quips would go well with them.
>>725978504Metroid Fusion maintained it's tone despite it.Same with Prime 3 to an extent.
>>725982792>ninja gaiden 4 wasn't ninja gaiden and added a faggot that nobody liked>metroid prime 4 is not metroid prime and they added a faggot that nobody likesi'm tired
>>726047354Metroid Prime 4 is probably still going to be Metroid Prime except lacking that moody atmosphere the other game do, which fucking sucks, but at least there's a bunch of the other good aspects about MP.What I despise is faggots defending and saying they like the retard and saying how Nintendo turning to having talkative NPCs is a good thing. As well as trying to say Other M was good.
>>725985568Forspoken flopped
>>726007228THEY BREATHE NOW
>>726014303If only you didn't take them drugs, huh.You'd be alive right now.
