This game kicks ass, the bitching about it has to be overblown.
>>
So there isn't annoying npc chatter? The mood of isolation and adventure is preserved?
>>
Ok tendie.
>>
>>727748470
It's a really great game and there's nothing like it. Honestly one of the best games I've played in the last few years. Seems like a lot of youtubers are being negative for views. The problems are minor and yeah the isolation is preserved. The npc chatter isn't overwhelming and stops completely in most parts. Think it's getting overblown because the annoying guy talks for a bit in the games first 10 minutes, but then pretty much leaves you alone. It is a great game
>>

The funny thing about this thread is you know the only person who has actually played it is OP. And yet everyone else is convinced they're right.

Are you new? Threads like this are posted by marketing jeets who have never nor will never play the game.

>So there isn't annoying npc chatter?
There is. If you spend more than 30 seconds in the desert (and you will, because you can't get anywhere within 30 seconds) Myles calls you to remind you to check your map if you're lost. If you're still there a minute later, he calls you again. And he'll call you a third time to just tell you where you need to go and force you to open your map.
After you've gotten the five keys, Myles begins calling you EVEN MORE OFTEN. Every time you enter the desert, he reminds you to look for mech parts and green crystals. When you find a mech part, he calls you to tell you that you've found a mech part and you should keep doing that. Every single time.
The fire dungeon is just you escorting two characters, it's a straight line where they have to open doors for you. The mine dungeon is the same, but it's one character at a time with about 30 cutscenes throughout the dungeon. Again just a straight line.

I'll have to watch his playthrough when I'm done with my own.

>>727748470
Genuinely, there are long stretches of time where there is no NPC chatter but they are a bad edition regardless with stupid lines. At least the voice acting is good though but I don't care about that.
>>

>Genuinely, there are long stretches of time where there is no NPC chatter
Only in the beginning of Fury Green and for most of Volt Forge.
>>
>>727748470
There is not a single 10 minute stretch in the whole game that doesnt have miles interuptting you for reason to yapyapyap about nothing. The game also FORCES you to backtrack to see miles in person and watch an absurdly long cutscene with him to "install" yout beam upgrades. Thats right, you cant upgrade your beam without travelling across the world and listening to redditnigger talk. Its dogshit, anyone telling you its good is retarded.

>the mood of isolation and adventure is preserved.
I have never felt isolated at all in prime 4, not for a second. I have never felt like im on ad adventure in prime 4. Theres no atmosphere, theres no immersion, theres no fun, theres not a single moment that feels like metroid. Its just feels like a lazily thrown together shitty marvel superhero slop game. It never ever feels like metroid for a second.
>>
>>727755353
It felt like Metroid for a brief period before you meet Myles, and then again for a brief period when you turn on the heat in Snow Belt before the sniper starts yapping on your comms about the grievers trying to get to him.
>>
>>727755401
Not to me. It didnt feel like metroid at any point to me because the game simply doesnt give you enough time to feel immersed or alone. You said "a breif period" and for that whole breif period all i can think is "the fedniggers are gonna chime in at any moment, any moment, they are gonna ruin everything by talking"
Even when they arent talking im constantly terrified they are gonna start talking again or game game will introdice anothet one and shove endless deluges of dialogue down my throat. The whole game is made unplayable and unenjoyable because the feds exist at all. I have NEVER felt like i was alone or isolated for a secone while playing prime 4.
>>
You guys are weird. Ever since I got to the desert it's been pretty quiet. To say you can't go 10 minutes without being interrupted is quite the exaggeration.
>>
>>727756503
Post again when you get your fifth key, dumb fucking nigger.
>>
>>727756503
There is not 10 minutes of the game that miles or some other fednigger isnt yapyapyaping at you. Its constant, endless, there is not a single moment of feeling isolated the whole game. Even when they arent talking im constantly terrified they are gonna start yapyapyaping again so the atmosphere is completely ruined for the whole game reguardless.
>>
I don't care if the game is putrescent dogshit, I'm having a mother heckin' BLAST!

I just spent an hour in Volt Forge without any input from Myles.
This is exactly why you are a laughing stock. You can’t voice criticism without blowing it out of proportion because you yourself don’t believe what is actually happening is bad enough.
Retards like you are drowning out people with valid criticisms.

Did you watch “all cutscenes compilation” on youtube?
>>
>>727756986
Cool story bro, tell it again. Volt forge never felt like metroid for a second at all because i was constantly terrifed the entire time thinking "please dont talk fednigger, please dont talk fed nigger" on a loop, in my head the whole game, i never ever didnt have that on a loop in my head. Miles might as well be talking the whole time because him EXISTING AT ALL COMPLETELY RENDERS LITERALLY EVERYTHING IN THE GAME WORTHLESS AND UNENJOYABLE IN A ANY WAY!!!!
The absence of ANY feds is a necessary part of what makes metroid playable in the first place and there being a single one present ruins everything. Im never ever not terrified that some fednigger is gonna open their fucking mouths.

You've played the game for an hour and have no idea what's ahead of you while you shout down people who actually have played the game and accuse them of lying. Like, what ground do you have to stand on here? You're completely ignorant. You're just kneejerk defending it because you feel obligated to, not because you've actually experienced it yourself.
>W-WELL THEY WILL 15 HOURS IN YOU'LL SEE
Here, let me spoil the next 10 hours of the game for you.
When you leave Volt Forge, Myles will call you and tell you to pick any place you want to go.
Before you can get across the desert to any destination, Myles will call you to tell you to check your map.
Again, before you can get anywhere, he will call again and order you to go to the volcano area.
You'll go there, be unable to proceed but get the fire shot.
Myles will call you and tell you to come back to him to install it.
You go back to him and listen to him talk. He reminds you that fire can burn things.
The instant you enter the desert, he'll tell you that you should go see where you can use the fire shot.
Before you can get to the ice area, he'll accuse you of being lost and tell you to go to the ice area.
Having fun yet? I can continue, if you want. Want to hear about the mine dungeon that's just a straight line with 20 cutscenes while Armstrong yelps in your ear?
>>727757178
I'm playing the game right now doing item cleanup while Myles calls me any time I enter the desert to remind me to pick up mech parts and green crystals. It's fucking nonstop. Let me know if you want a screenshot of my save file so I can thoroughly rape any cope you have.

It's a rock solid 4/10.

>>727757262
I am posting like a perfectly fine normal human who simply wants a new metroid game to feel like a metroid game. Prime 4 is more similar to one of those anime "visual novels" than any metroid game with a the endless dialogueslop. Thats a fact.

No single positive post about it feels normal.

the npc chatter is *mildly* overblown (mildly. it's still pretty bad). but people are using that to dismiss all the actual criticisms of the game, like the fact that exploration is non existent, the map is just corridors padded by a giant empty hub map which you have to backtrack through constantly to unlock upgrades (and it's not clever backtracking as is expected of a Metroidvania, it's just tedious), the story and worldbuilding are trash and feels like they put zero effort into it ("green energy", give me a break), the ost is lame, the upgrades are boring. it's just a mess. the npc chatter is just the shit cherry on a shit sundae that tips it over from being an aggressively mediocre game to being outright annoying to play.

Every zone is a fucking glorified corridor. You don't explore in this game at all. You don't get lost. You don't check your map. You never have to plan a route. Even when you only have one possible way to go, you'll get told where to go.
>>
>>727758756
It's a Zelda game. The people who called the desert Hyrule Field were more right than they knew. Instead of Metroid biomes, they're Zelda dungeons where you get a new item that lets you finish the dungeon and do the boss at the end.
>>
>>727758819
No, even Zelda games require some degree of problem solving and spatial reasoning whenever you're navigating a dungeon. Prime 4 doesn't even have that.

>There's a gem meter in the menu that is only ever told to you by the end of the game is important as you need to fully max it out by the end of the game to unlock the final boss. If you just drive from point a to point b the whole game you're stuck with a 45 min grind just riding around the desert getting green gems.

Why do people not like him? He had really good fights and his motivation is about what I expected. Ever since Hunters he's been an autistic screeching retard, so his backstory having him be a jealous little fuck instead of something sympathetic is perfectly in line.
>>
would have been cooler if you get speed boost with upgradable levels and not the bike
>>
>>727761102
They made him lame.
The final boss is trash because his real fight only lasts like a second and is ruined by the first 2 shitty phases and in the fights before that he's really slow, docile and doesn't fight like himself.

also no backstory at all would have been better than what they did with him in 4. it was like they just reluctantly shoved him in their games plot because they knew they had to.
he's somehow way better in a fucking DS game.

>Nintendo made Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
>Regardless of what criticisms you may have about the game, the one thing nearly everyone can probably agree on is that the general lack of some NPC telling you what to do and where to go all the time is a good thing. Even if you hate the game and want to go back to the OoT style, you probably do at least have some appreciation for this one element.

Aside from every better game in the same franchise, which are almost all of them because they decided to put in zero thought in the level design, yes, there's nothing like 4.

First phase is meh but the other two were really good in my opinion.

Well those were also robots copying Sylux, the final boss is the real deal and Sylux juiced up.
>also no backstory at all would have been better than what they did with him in 4.
What did people expect really? I always had the impression that he was a jackass and his reason for hating the Federation and Samus is that he's envious and failed for it. I would've been more upset if they tried to hamfist some sympathetic motive for the dude who autistically screeches and has been depicted jobbing to Samus 24/7. Also the fact that they deliberately chose to not kill him off tells me they probably have further ideas for him.

Great, I'll keep that in mind when I never call you for the entire game because I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANY OF WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY. Oho but wait motherfucker! Myles frequently calls Samus to dish out unsolicited "help" anyway. Thank you Retro Studios for absolutely nothing and go fuck yourself.

If it's your first metroid prime game I can totally get that you like it.

But if you e played 1 and 2, it's worse than them.

Which makes sense really, it's clearly an entry point into the prime series, whatever man, It wasn't too expensive
