>both are naive fish out of water idiots that you meet at the start of the game and across your journey>both exist to break tension with levity in a dangerous world>yet somehow one was instantly beloved while the other was instantly reviledDefend this, /v/. Fuck. Silksong has more NPCs than Metroid Prime yet some how that's fine?Make it make sense.
did you fucking play silksong???
>>726094351>>726093868You have some REALLY shit takes, sharty
>>726094415Did you play Prime 4 yet? No? Shut the fuck up then.
>>726094351Video games shouldn't have characters. It should be just the player and nobody else.
>>726094351Well you don't have to play an escort mission with Sherma for one. He also only talks to you if you engage with him first. You could literally never talk to him at all in a playthrough, whereas with Miles it is unavoidable that you end up talking to him and spending a long time listening to his sniveling voice.
>>726094351Both games are bad
>>726094351Sillsong is well written
>>726094719ThisAgency goes a long fucking way. Even without interacting with Sherma, worst case you just hear him singing at the beginning while opening the door and that's itthe mission where you rescue him in white ward might be obligatory for Act 3 but fuck you he's cute
>>726094351sherma is cute and endearing. that obscene goblin beast on the left needs to be killed with hammers
Sherma is sexually attractive
>>726095037Lol, no
>>726094351i'm ugly and i hate other ugly people
>>726095051>SpoilerOh yeah, somehow I forgot that was mandatory.
>>726094351yadda yadda bait thread i know i'm being trolled>lack of actual speaking makes sherma not cause a fucking migraine >sherma's character design is appealing while not even mile's armor looks good>sherma's appearances throughout chapter 1 are brief but heartwarming>sherma emains in songclave for the rest of the game in chapter 2 and beyond meanwhile miles actively fucking follows you without shutting upblah blah blah op is a nigger>>726094481you're a nigger>>726095143and i'd disagree with you if act 3 didn't exist
>>726095143lol yea
>>726094351This is premium bait
>>726095143silksong is better written than e33
>>726094351Sherma isn't a jew. Next thread.
>>726094351>Make it make sense.Myles is a 35 year old manchild. Sherma is a literal child. Sherma will grow up to be the Pope. He will make the world a better place. Myles is already grown up, and is a waste of oxygen. The world would be better off if Myles was never born.
>>726095143Better than most games at least
>>726094351>let's have an ugly, pathetic man constantly mouth off during every inch of Samus's journey!Really what the fuck was Nintendo thinking?
>>726095051What if you just never open that door at the start?
>>726097886he still finds a wayhe also finds a way into the citadel even if you never kill the judge to open the door, and he finds a way into the spa before you manage to open it up
>>726094351Because Sherma is a shota. That's it. He could be the most obnoxiously written character in the game, and people would be like "but the /ss/ porn with Hornet is great!"
its honestly sad too because hornet is what i imagine a npc heavy metroid game would be her dialogue is how i thought samus would act if she blabbed a lot
>>726094351>Defend this, /v/.The first encounter with Sherma lasts about 2 minutes, with the player away from him for the majority of that time. You can leave and never come back. Later you see Sherma pop up a few times, and you can ignore him completely. By the time they actually introduce a "escort mission" for Sherma, you are probably at least mildly invested in the character. The mission does not require you to protect Sherma, takes places in one room, and lasts about 2 minutes.
Sherma just bangs her bell and makes a funny noise.
>>726095534True.
>>726097994Lame and gay.
>>726094351Sherma is a naive child with a good heart that steps up to help his fellow pilgrims in a time of crisis. The other one is a Joss Whedon reject with no charm whatsoever.
>>726094351Sherma is cute and you barely get to be with him in the adventure, Mackenzie is ugly and up your ass, you're constantly in an escort mission with him.
>>726094351Someone like Sherma puts you more into the world. Someone like Myles takes you out of it.Sherma does not overstay his welcome. He is present in specific areas to have some conversations with. He does not force his prescence upon you outside of those. Everything we know of Myles shows he will be constantly quipping over comms regardless of whether you wish to hear it or not.Myles is a standard marvel quipper. Sherma is a naive religious child.Is it possible we will be proven wrong about Myles? I suppose. I won't be getting my hopes up though.
I hate seeing people wear glasses in high sci-fi settings. I hate that Faggot has glasses inside and outside his helmet too.
>>726094351Sherma's faith is an inspiration to us all
>>726094351>both are naive fish out of water idiots that you meet at the start of the game and across your journey>both exist to break tension with levity in a dangerous world>yet somehow one was instantly beloved while the other was instantly reviled
I don't remember Sherma giving Hornet gameplay advice.
>>726094351Metroid has no room for human interaction.Metroid Prime is a power trip about my autistic ass inside a power suit, exploring bizarre planets, looking at the beautiful vistas and enjoying the music while I unleash holocaust on the local fauna. As long as quirky chungus keeps interrupting my contemplative solitude, I won't consider it a Metroid game. And it's not just about the nerdy guy and his Marvel quips, I DESPISE that you have to babysit these Fed retards. These fucks were a major flaw in Metroid Prime 3 because you couldn't feel an ounce of solitude in that universe, you were always taking orders and directions from them. Other M sucked ass too, but at least their inclusion worked a lil bit better because the story progression made it seem like a slasher flick and you knew those faggots were gonna die.
>>726094351Sherma may look stupid as shit at time, but his methods eventually bear fruits
>>726094351Different things are different.
>ding
Best Tendy meltdown in a while.
>>726094351there's niggers perpetually orbiting the player offscreen you never see them but they're here, so that's why she's hitting her bell
Important question bros.Should Sherma have been a girl or a boy?
>>726094719>himThat's a male?What are they pouring in Pharloom's water supplies?
>>726100694The best bards are men.
>>726100694boy for hornet /ss/
>>726095051>obligatory for act 3is it easy to miss? I don't wanna be unable to play act 3
Why do they keep forcing the Federation?Literally WHO likes these fucks?
>>726100806You can't lock yourself out of act 3. Don't stress about it.
>>726094351Sherma is a kid and a pure innocent soul, in the harsh environment provided I want Sherma to make it. Myles is an adult, which at the brink of dying on a garbage planet decides not putting up with some random guy instead is a win because cracking jokes is funnier than actually presenting some cowardice to survive. He's portrayed as a nerd idiot who shouldn't be in the Federation Force.
>singlehandedly proves that Silksong is actually not anti religionSherma won BIGLY
>>726098678>Everything we know of Myles shows he will be constantly quipping over comms regardless of whether you wish to hear it or not.Except the part where he stops after you leave the first part of the first area.
>>726094351What the fuck even is this comparison? What 75iq indian mind decided to pit these two completely different characters against each other like it's a significant topic of conversation?
>>726100831Retro wants their oc donut steel self inserts interacting with samus
>>726098996You don't seem to know what "fish out of water" means if you think claptrap fits the term.
>>726100831Pretty sure the majority of Metroid players have wanted the federation expanded on since Super, maybe Fusion.
>>726100912There are screenshots showing NPCs accompanying Samus in different parts of the game with varying upgrades, even if Myles fucks off the rest of the circus will constantly be on her ass.
>>726094351>Silksongplaying this at all lol
>>726100951>Defending BorderlandsI don't give a fuck nerd. He still applies to everything else. Annoying and loud like every Borderlands character. Everyone yaps a lot but says nothing meaningful. And It's going to be the same shitty millennial writing with this gay new Metroid sidekick character.
>>726094351well that's simple. 4chan are a bunch of weebs who are repulsed at the sight of a normal person and are aroused at a sight of a lolishota entity.
>>726094351>silkslopkinda crazy how fast this game was forgotten after all the meme hype
>>726101628Prime 4 is gonna get forgotten even faster
>>726101735ofcourse because nobody ever cared or cares about metroid, all of these threads are a meme and nobody here even played metroid
>>726101628>shit board filled to the brim with spambots/concern trolls and shills isn't talking about good game for too longsubhuman retard, you fit in really well
be honest, you hate him because he reminds you of yourself
>>726102135based
>>726094351So... win?
>>726094351Didn't play Silksong and won't play MP4 but from this image alone, one is ugly, one is cute
I can listen to Sherma sing on loop for half an hour.I can't listen to Myles talking for even half a minute.
>>726103063What if his lyrics are all swears in bug talk?
>>726101512Retards like you are infinitely worse.
>>726100679>her
>>726103146Correcting me still doesn't change my fucking point you fucking retard. Once again. A whole lot of yapping but nothng behind the words. Peak Millennial writing.
>>726103518If it werent for that single quest line Sherma could have easily been a loli
>>726098215>>726097994Door opens because he was right.Judge lets him in because he is judged pure.
>>726095534>>726098187>this is what delusional tumblrfags believe
>>726103763Ss act 3 is better than e33 act 3
>>726103806Absolutely not.
>>726094351I'm assuming op understand the difference but it's pretending he doesn't for fun
>>726103884E33 fucking SHAT itself with act 3
>>726094351Sherma is literally a little kid, retard. No wonder he is dumb and naive.
>>726094351N O S E
>>726100730DNA of a goddess AKA magic silk
>>726094351I don't even know which game the guy on the left is fromlooks no different than all the other AAA plaguing the industry, and every thread I see on the catalog is about him rather than the game and I don't care enough to go check those outhonestly I don't know why I even cared to check this thread out either
>>726100831>>726101034What people want is meaningful context for Samus's space adventures that put the games into a greater context.What they don't want is randoms talking at you and disrupting the game flow.Unironically Metroid would do well more Lore, but not more non-antagonist characters, not like tax policy shit but a general understanding of the average tech level and living conditions so that when Samus deals with advanced genetics or mystical tech its specialness is pronounced.
>>726100694I would fuck either, no homo
>>726107424Metroid should have gone full ZANZIBART souls lore desu
>>726107424the amount of lore you could discover by scanning shit in prime was just enough.
>>726094351*taps the sign*
