*wwhhhhhrrrrrrrrrrr*
Samus is having a blast collecting green energy on her Vi O La while listening to the ambient desert music!
>>729040131The crystals on the left remind me of the world trade center, especially the smaller one that looks like WTC 7
>>729040301she playing harvest moon here
Is MP4 the most disappointing game of 2025?
>>729040451Probably. Not face in your hands disappointing, more like hands in the air disappointing/
crystal pickers. looool
Retro is going to get gutted for this one.
>>729040131Samus and Kane linked up?
The vibe could have been so good.
>>729040131I don't know why my Brain just assumed that was a WoW screenshot.
Collecting crystals in deserts will always be comfy
>>729040680>shittiest part in GC>shittiest part in Prime 4
>>729040131Why does it look so bad? They should have made it look good instead.

Is that TIBERIUM
SAMMY ARE YOU OKARE YOU OK SAMMY
>>729040131Tiberium Crystals?
>>729040451>>729040543no kys
>>729041590SPEEEEN
>>729041301>a dozen unique key items vs a resource you have to collect hundreds of>each of which has a unique puzzle and some lore attached vs driving through the crystal in the same exact way every time>going through the well designed maps again, this time with all your upgrades, giving you a power trip vs driving through the same exact empty desert in the same exact boring way you've been doing all game
>>729042187Alright prime 1 is better alright alright
*whatever sound they made*
>>729040451The game feels like a corporate suit made all the design choices.>make samus escort some troopers so the player doesnt feel alone>put zelda shrines in the hub area, our study shows that games with shrine puzzles just sell moremy captcha can't triforce, fucking newfag ass captcha system
can you do wheelies at least?
>>729042626I guarantee that focus testing was one of the game's issues.>Half the focus testers didn't know where to go>Most of them forgot about the psychic morph bombs>These three guys didn't know how to control the bike
>>729040451MH wilds
>>729040451Nah, it's definitely mario kart world.
>>729041407Kind of sad what happened to the Lamorn. They just wanted to make everyone psychic because it was cool...
>>729040131MP4 is Shitendo sad attempt at Halo.
>>729040554They're probably going to be converted into a support studio like NST after Project H.A.M.M.E.R. They'll still offload any of the creative types though since they're not going to producing anything of their own.
>>729040131>*wwhhhhhrrrrrrrrrrr*>yeeeeeeees
>>729042626>give Samus a motorcycle when she can run super fast like SonicJust from that trailer I already felt like that was the case.
>>729043076What is Prime 3 and Prime 2 Multiplayer
>>729042903Absolutely not. Mario Kart World is normal Mario Kart but with shitty straight tracks you can avoid entirely if you just join one of the hundreds of online rooms.Metroid Prime 4 is bad in every way outside of graphical fidelity and there is no way to escape how bad it is.
>>729040131Green crystals are way better than artifact hunt. They tie into every aspect of gameplay, and produce rewards on many occasions.
>>729041965Did bincent beat it yet?
>>729040131JO crystal status: charged
>>729044084Not yet.
>>729042828People at least enjoyed MH Wilds for a few months early on.
I’m at the boss of Great Mines. How many hours do I have left?
>>729042546*plink*
I prefer going over empty deserts that to go to a ship pick up zone, waiting for a loading screen, going into the ship and doing waggling just to set course to a different planet and another loading screen, just to they can show me the ship going into the planet for YET ANOTHER LOADING SCREEN, just to drop me at the new planetFuck Prime 3 so hard.
>>729044838That depends on how much green crystals you've been getting.
>>729045214Yes but the cockpit aura
>>729042791>>729042626Ny theory was that Nintendo told Retro Studios to just copy BOTW's open world in order to help it sell to more consumers and casuals thus changing alot of their initial plans
>>729044838You will be sent to the base, than to the desert, base again, desert again then base into final area which is final boss only.
>>729040451What are you talking about? It's GOTYAY
>>729040451To be disappointing there had to be expectations. No one expected a nintendo "game" to be good.
>>729043241i unironically thought the bike webms were shitposting
>>729040131The fact this is in a Metroid game is just extremely... bad. There's like no other word worth expending effort on. Racid? Fetid? Neucrotic? Nay, it's simply bad. Can't imagine how bad the Scamco version would have been if THIS is what we were given from Retro.
>>729045250I only have half but I don’t want to get the rest.
I just need the 2 and 3 Remaster
>>729042734simple question, answer it
Again /v/ bros. This was Retro and Nintendo seeing where the series stands. They intentionally tried a bunch of different ideas and made the game more casual to appeal to as wide an audience as possible and see which ideas stick with fans. The game was awesome, and makes me expect that 5, which is rumored to be quickly released, will be really good.
>>729045497It could've been possible that Namco ended up making something better, albeit maybe too intense for the hardware.
>>729045652It makes me worry that Prime 5 is going to be more of the same. If it's going to be quickly released, that means it was in parallel development. That isn't a good sign at all.
>>729045715We were either abjectly robbed of a better game, or saved from some absolutely bottom-of-the-barrel pig trough slop like their usual licensed drivel. Chances are we'll never know for sure.
>>729040451No but that is really saying something since 2025 has lots of disappointments
>>729041407Didn't they already have this enemy in mp3 on bryyo?
>>729040421retard
Now that the dust has settled, is it good?
>>729046441no
>>729045425I dunno anon, tendies can be pretty gullible...
>>729046441It's mid.
>metroid prime 1 started good, ended shit>metroid prime 2 was shit>metroid prime hunters was shit>metroid prime 3 was shit>metroid other m (attempt at mixing 2D and prime) was shit>surprise surprise metroid prime 4 was shitWhy the fuck is this series held on such a pedestal and why were people thinking 4 would be good?
>>729046441Absolutely not. 6/10 at best, only good if you've quite literally never played a Metroid game before to compare your experience to.
>>729045652>the game was awesomehahah
>>729040131>Donkey Kong Bananza:>smash the green crystals dude>Metroid Prime 4>smash the green crystals dudeWhat did they mean by this? Will I also have to smash green crystals in the next Zelda or Mario?
ack
>>729042626that's not a failed triforce, newfag kun. this is
how does this game run on emulators?
>>729042187This but in only works if you don't have much issue finding the artifacts, if you miss one you'll be wandering the entire map not knowing what to do.
>>729046441apparently they made a motorcycle game where you cant do wheelies. absolutely mogged by vice city on switch 1
>>729040131Imagine, there are real Nintendo fanboys in 2025
>>729047916I mean reVC not the definitive edition. You can play liberty city stories and vice city stories too.
>>729047005prime was never good. people only like the 1st one because it surprised everyone by not being disaster. the sequels are all shit. yes including 2.
>>729040131Looks like mobile game rip off. Grim
I'm going to sound like a huge faggot but the air mobility of Doom Eternal adds maneuverability that console shooters desperately need.MP4 seemingly doing nothing with combat mobility was always going to be its greatest sin, at least for me.
So... would you?
>>729047167>have to pay $20 to smash green crystalsNo, I don't think I will.
>>729040301umwhere are her pants?
>>729041407I can hear that damn change in the music whenever these fuckers are nearby
>>729046441Being a Cross Gen game helps as I got the Switch 1 version so I’m not too mad about how bad it may be at certain parts
>>729047045>6/10 at bestI think that's a disservice to respectable 6/10 games. It's plain and simple bad.
I was thinking that if Metroid Prime 4 could be fixed with patches, but this game has too many issues with core ideas.It would had to be redone from scratch.
>>729042992They tried to play god and got what they deserved
>>729040451It faces stiff competition from Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, Kirby Air Riders, Pokemon Z-A and Hyrule Warriors Age of Imprisonment.Mamma mia what a dismal launch.
>*wwhhhhhrrrrrrrrrrr*Party rockers?
>>729041301Those are not on the same level of annoying and I hate both.
>>729046441>even with ALL the artificial padding, it takes 10 hours to 100% it at a GENEROUS pacelollmao
>>729047632it was pretty "playable" on eden until the mines where it just refused to stay stable and kept crashing after a few minutesryubing trades the crashes with freezing for a few minutes before resuming againdon't know if these issues have been fixed after a week but it's """""completeable"""""
>>729044084He stopped after everyone sacrificed themselves in the mines. Soon he will see them all well and good.
>>729040131Next Zelda game will be about hitting blue rock at his point
>>729040451no because only retards were expecting anything good after the first trailer.
>>729049194she took them off for a minute because she was having sex with your mom there...
>>729040131>6 years in developmentgrim
A damn bike.
>>729051148MP4 is all but certainly a frakengame of different builds.
>>729046102I imagine the only way to find out is if there's another leak from either Nintendo or Namco
>>729044084he's in the mines, and hating it.
>>729049039what if I massaged her little toesy woesies
>>729046441Other M for those who waited almost twenty years to see what Sylux's deal was.
>>729040131Where is there tiberium in metroid?
>>729041516PEACE THROUGH POWER
>Metroid was never good actually
Fucking farming Tiberium in a Metroid game will never make me not laugh
>>729040451No that's MH Milds. Prime 4 has the dev hell production to drag its massive titanium balls throught that terrible desert and shit map designs. Wilds has no excuse.
>>729041516No Kane you missed out on goopy blue tiberium. Those crystals are just gay crack
>>729042626>The game feels like a corporate suit made all the design choices.That's true for every major Nintendo game these days.
Ratchet and Clank Going Commando has the same MP4 desert garbage area in it BUT TWICE
>>729049039really upset they suffered from terminal stupidity and pretty much killed themselves, and the game was so shit that no one will ever draw any porn of them ever
>>729047461The other one is AI generated.
>>729041024>shittiest part in GCThat's the ice planet with the same gimmick that was apparently made in a few hours by a single guy on crunch time.
>>729045652Cocksuckers like you are the problem
>>729047167The green crystals come pre-smashed in Zelda that's what rupees are.>Hey Link you need 9999 rupees to enter Hyrule Castle! Bazinga! Is what gonna happen if they give the next one to the MP4 devs
>>729042828>MH wildsThe worst thing about the game, the fact it that was braindead easy, has largely been rectified, and a lot of the TU fights are actually pretty fun. They even managed to make the performance a little less shit. Meanwhile Prime 4 is going to stay shit for all eternity.
>>729042626>make samus escort some troopers so the player doesnt feel aloneSpoken like someone who only played the Prime remaster two years ago and this was their only experience with the franchise ever.The game actively continues the themes set up in Echoes, Corruption and Federation Force, in Echoes Samus is sent to Aether specifically to look for an entire stranded platoon of troopers, she just happens to arrive too late to save anyone, insight from their logs and scans shows they had similar interactions between them to those seen in Beyond, with one of the troopers in particular being a massive Samus fangirl, and another one mocking her for it.In Corruption Samus works directly with the Federation during the entire game, and is sent to Bryyo, Elysia and the Pirate Homeworld with the specific intent of finding and rescuing the missing hunters, the Pirate Homeworld level even has an escort mission with an anonymous trooper who turns out to be Gandrayda in disguise.>Zelda shrinesTired of this retarded exageration, they're not Zelda shrines, they're just small, entirely optional puzzles to get augments for the elemental beams, and there's only six of them, two per beam.
>>729046441It's fun enough to play, I'm alright with it.
>>729061270I never expected Sylux to be anything more than a petty motherfucker and his backstory is perfectly in line with that. The only thing is that I wish he physically appeared more (not robots) but he's not dead so there will obviously be more
>>729051148They should at least patch the colors of database scans.
>>729040131>Give THE galactic bounty hunter a badass Motorcycle>Just used to ram crystals in the desertWHAT WERE THEY THINKING?!
>>729061270Sylux's deal was not a mystery, it was plainly stated in Hunters, he's an ex-trooper with a personal vendetta against Samus who works for the space pirates.
The green crystals are like the blue coins from Mario Sunshine but worse.
>>729049194a sneaky little boy took them off for her
>>729064502It sees use in two boss battles, the first part of the volcano and the bridges between the towers in the forge.
>>729040451Between the years of radio silence, the eventual gameplay reveal strangely showing nothing new whatsoever (very out of character for Nintendo) and the reluctance to talk about the bike or the open world, you could see this one coming unfortunately. Disappointing but not much of a surpriseWilds was Dragon's Dogma 2 all over again, absolute shitshow
>>729064521We didn't actually know if he was an ex-trooper or not but otherwise yes. I'm not sure what people expected from him. Not even the greatest Metroid villains have very deep backstories behind them and it's not like Sylux was intentionally dragged out so long for a big reveal.
>>729040131>t. vibrator
>>729040451No, but that's because it's impossible for games to disappoint anymore. After the last 10-15 years... probably, I'd say, ever since SimCity 2013... I gradually made a habit of simply not expecting much from game developers anymore. You can't be disappointed, if you're expecting these games to be mediocre in the first place.
>>729045356got the original PNG for that?
>>729064502The plot of Prime 4 should have been Samus joining a race contest in viewros to get info on sylux who had been operating there working on something, you would have races against other aliens in between classic Prime 3d gameplay
>>729049039yep.in one scene they walked around and had nice asses so i could have definitely prevented their extinction had i known of their existence beforehand.
>>729064403>The game actively continues the themes set up in Echoes, Corruption and Federation ForceEchoes never forces escort missions and stupid marvel quips on the player. Corruption and Fed Force are bad games, that speaks for itself.>Tired of this retarded exageration, they're not Zelda shrines, they're just small, entirely optional puzzles Metroid already had small, optional puzzles, and they were integrated better than this putrid nu-Zelda garbage.
>>729065012>Death race against sylux as the final bossSylux already is the type who would have some lightcycle
>>729064502>three tracks back-to-back complete with a vanity cam at the results screen>never used againIt could've been possible that there was even more of this shit planned, could've easily put more tracks into those shitty shrines. Glad there isn't, the bike isn't even that good to control. But it seems like the framework was certainly there. God this is such a fucking weird game.
>>729040451easily. it's one of the biggest disappointments in the 40+ years I've been gaming desu. the fact that it was the big 1st party holiday game in the 1st year of a new console makes it especially egregious. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised considering MP3 was disappointing too. oh well, at least got Dread.
>>729065042>Throwing a bitchfit over 6 whole 2-room dungeons Embarrassing, really.
>>729066491>just eat a little bit of shit, it's not like it ruins the rest of the plate
>>729047649You get a checklist though and they tell you which room to look in
>>729040131Oh, cool! Win?
>>729066351>that it was the big 1st party holiday game in the 1st year of a new console makes it especially egregiousThat was Pokemon, let's be real. Metroid is never going to be "the big holiday game" even when it's good.
>>729060603Has the he finally ran out of cope?
>>729045356I deeply disagree with this theory since the game is nothing like BotW. And the 6 "shrines" in there are actually okay since they give you actual cool rewards. It takes so little from it and the little it takes is actually better implemented.Whats truly doesnt fly about the game is the areas being corridors devoid of all mystery. Volt forge is specially disappointing because the visual design is great, and by looks it sets the expectation of some huge, vertical maze with multiple shafts a la NES metroid. But it is not the case. 2 vertical tubes with no branching. Just straight lines into dead ends and then back again. And after ice belt the game only becomes worse because the next areas you arent left alone. You need to deal with some shitty escort mission which feels straight out of the boring part of a late 00s game.
>>729040451Silksong was a bigger disappointment for me because it was just a worse version of Hollow Knight with fetch quests.
>>729068243It improved on things with the tools and somewhat the styles (though you should only use 2 of them so what's the point?). Kinda felt like a DLC or expansion pack.
>>729040131Even just changing it so that hitting them in any spot would just give you all of them, instead of having to drive into each batch two or three times, would've made the game 10x less miserable.
This game just looks so sad. Buyer's remorse while playing it must be crazy
>>729040131Now THIS is what we've been waiting for. GOTY
>>729041516Heh, thought the same
