>fuck you I liked it
Am I the only one who thinks this game is overhated for what it is?
>>
>>729440021
Every Nintendo game released since the Switch 2 launch has been overhated because the NES retards are desperate, I wonder how long they'll keep this up. The only difference with MP4 is that it is a more flawed game with a messy development, so they feel vindicated as if their mad ramblings were correct this whole time
>>
79 seems harsh. I think the Myles stuff poisoned the well.
>>
>>729440021
Who are you quoting?
>>
>>729440021
The writing sucks the bosses suck and so does the level design
They shat the bed in a tremendous way with their technical team the only ones doing their jobs for the past decade
>>
>>729440021
It was an alright 80.
>>
>>729440021
it's "that part" the game
if it was a good metroid I would have already replayed it by now, but there is so much annoying shit that just makes the bad I can't be bothered
>>
>>729440227
Ironic since he's the best of the companions, although he does have the worst introduction
>>
>>729440021
>>729440227
Nagging NPCs that act as tutorial guides are antithetical to Metroid. They're annoying in any game, but they _especially_ do not belong in Metroid, where loneliness and isolation are dominant. "He's only there for 15 minutes" is not a compelling line of reasoning here. It's Metroid—he shouldn't be there at all.
>>
>>729440021
Just feels undercooked and messy, but I still enjoyed it. The interconnected world is pretty bad, but the dungeon stuff was alright. Felt like a late gen 360 game.

As a full blown new Prime game, it's weak.
>>
You can tell who has and hasn't played the game based on how much they complain about Myles.
Yes he's annoying, but he's far from the worst part of the game. What about Sylux who was in the trailer and all the promo material, and then was barely even in the fucking game?
>>
>>729440227
What shocked me the most was checking the scores of the previous Prime games and finding out that MP3 is sitting on a 90, I guess people just weren't as critical back then
>>
>>729440021
of course you aren't'
nintendo has conditioned thousands of mentally underdeveloped social outcasts into becoming worthless, subhuman corpocattle, just as they did with you
>>
>>729440104
NES retards are desperate for what?
Are you nintendo newfags so asshurt that old fans think the company cant deliver anymore that you throw them under the bus?
>>
>>729440021
You know what's really funny? Every single Prime game has been "the worst one" at some point, including the original, but after MP4 people suddenly act like this was always a sacred beloved trilogy that respected Metroid as a franchise and MP4 ruined it
>>
>>729440925
>speedrun troon chimes in
>>
>>729440925
thats not funny you are just describing consistent decline.
>>
>>729440021
Yes because you're a dumbass tendie secondary that didn't wait 15 fucking years for it
>>
>>729440021
things like the desert and mines aren't hated enough, but stuff like the atmosphere in some sections are underappreciated
>>
>>729441072
Super atmospheric dude

It was easily the worst of the four. I don't care about the NPCs, they really didn't bother me much outside of the ending and the cliched scenario in the mines, I'm more annoyed by the lack of interconnectivity of levels and lack of exploration. Metroid often suffers from exploration feeling not worthwhile when the rewards are missile expansions and other expansions 90% of the time, but with the way the levels were structured with a huge desert in the middle completely separating areas, it made it feel completely undesirable to go back to other areas knowing at best you were going to get a health tank you didn't really need anyways. By the end of the game I really just wanted it to end, then the ending was a total kick in the nuts from a story perspective.
>>
I just finished the mine, I'm not gonna use spoiler text so here's your warning:

The level design fucking sucks. I just finished the mine, and every level just felt like walking down hallways until you fight a boss. None of the collectables are actually hidden, they're just locked behind doors with highly specific keys. The combat is fine, but it's too easy to just spam super charge shots, there's basically no reason to use anything else since save stations reload your ammo. The desert is completely pointless, it's Talon IV with nothing in it and 10x as big. They give you psychic powers, and then you just get all of your old upgrades again anyway without anything that interesting added. And again holy fuck those mines, just walk straight, open doors, and get swarmed by the same enemy type the entire time. I'm gonna finish it, but it's easily the worst of the series. It feels like they're out of ideas, and wanted a more action/adventure feel.
>>
>>729440021
People expected greatness and got an average game
It's not bad but not what you'd expect from the return of Prime. I think the shitting on is somewhat deserved and hopefully makes them step their shit up
>>
>>729441072
The mines almost made me drop the game, whoever thought making an entire level where you just have to hold off swarms off enemies until an NPC says "you go on ahead, I'll hold them off!" FOUR TIMES needs to fired immediately. Most padded/filler shit I've played in a while.
>>
>>729440021
I think it's not hated nearly enough

and I loved bananza and also think mk world is unironically a good game that just needs a couple of updates to be truly great
>>
Scanning....scanning....scanning....zzzzzzzzz

>>729440227
It's definitely a disappointing game, but to have the same score as Other M? If Metroid dies until the 2030's, I'll concede that MP4 deserves it.

the level design is indefensible

retards are going to meme about corruption being the same but corruption map design was a hundred times better, this is what the pirate homeworld would look like if it was in prime 4
>>
It’s not hated enough
>>
>>729440021
shittiest metroid prime ever, dev hell, retard devs juggling the tanabe autist and trying to make due with crumbs and the stupid as fuck bamco plot. absolute hell of a development cycle and the most vile assault on Samus ever since Sakamoto smoked swamp gas in 2010. 70/100 it's alright.
shows how tough the prime series is and how Samus is basically a displaced ryona ero game protagonist because holy shit she should file tanabe for rape after this game's dev cycle.

It’s mediocre as fuck but if you like Metroid for reasons other than the meme “muh sequence break” it bumps it up. I liked it, but it’s still one of the weakest entries.

>Am I the only one who thinks this game is overhated for what it is?
I'm sure you and all the other Retro employees are very congratulatory of this pile of shit.

Much weaker than prime 1 and 2 but better than 3.
