So we’re all able to admit this is a bad game now, right?>i-it wasn’t bad it’s just a 6/10!Nope. It’s bad.>i-it wasn’t a bad game it’s just a bad Metroid game!Nope. It’s a bad game period.
Dunno, didn't play it. It certainly doesn't seem good.
>>732222612Pe3osnally I think the entire Prime series has always been a bit lack luster. They're fun enough to play through once, but that's it and every game is about the same so MP4 really is no worse than MP1 because they both suffer from the same issues like the biggest problem I have with the series is constantly being locked in a room to fight waves of enemies. It's always been so tedious and boring.
>>732223104The first three are really good, 3 might be the worst in the trilogy but it’s a good game on its own. Beyond is just complete dogshit.
It was good.
it was ok, and that's fine by me.
>>732222857It’s not. Tendies are coping with the recent news it performed terribly, and deservedly so.
>>732223376What app is that?
>>732224071Nintendo Store.For some reason it also includes an activity log that goes all the way back to the 3DS/Wii U era.For those games it only shows total playtime, but for Switch/2 games it also shows playtime by day.
>>732222612I like the maps in graphic design, they look and feel peak to walk through but they also are pretty boring. I can play the game up to an hour or so until I get really bored. The combat is pretty lame, the enemy types are pretty lame and theres just a bit too much down time(even for a game like this).It does some things really well, but that doesnt change the fact its pretty boring.Also as a side note: Is it just me or did they crank up the scanning shit up to 11 in this one? Older prime games, you see a computer and it tells you"its a computer" and you dont need to scan any more computers, but in this one you can enter a room with 20 computers and you need to scan every single one of them and the only difference is "on this computer screen there is a dead pixel in the right" or "this screen is set to vibrant colors, its terrible". Who the fuck cares? Seeing 100% runs at 15 hours, I really think the game is like 6 hours if you dont scan shit
>*long wet fart*
>>732225208unbelievable how badly they fumbled this guy. I would be okay just never seeing him again.
>>732222612I'm still laughing at all the shills who tried to claim mackenzie was just in the first hour of the game while Nintendo was showing footage of multiple fag force troops in later parts of the game.
>>732225648He is some generic stick man from some weird attempt at trying to turn Metroid into Quake and I have no idea why Tanabe thought anybody would care about him or why /v/ pretended he had potential to be interesting.
>>732223104 Yeah, the constant room lockdowns and arena fights really kill the pacing. It's like they took the worst aspect of Prime 2 and made it the backbone of Beyond’s combat. Exploration used to feel rewarding and organic, now it’s just filler stuffed between wave rooms and lore dumps nobody asked for. Series deserved better after that long of a wait.
>>732222612>Just one more game that isn't a remake and then only half of the games in the Metroid series will actually be representative of what people think of as a Metroidvania, less than that even if you tighten up your standards and exclude Fusion-likes
>>732222612They could release a patch tomorrow that makes you play the whole game in 3rd person as Zero Suit Samus and it would instantly be a 10/10
>>732226370To give the game one praise, I do think they did a good job with how Samus looks.
>>732222612pokechads won
>>732228015won what? pokemon games are even worse
>>732225907Tanabe clearly was interested with the idea of adding "characters" to the Metroid universe. He probably looked at all these other Nintendo franchises, and saw that Metroid really only has Samus and Ridley. This dude was 100% aiming for Sylux to get into the next Smash.
>>732225648With both Tanabe gone and the game having him get exploded and stranded on a planet half way across the galaxy they may well just give up on using him. They can't keep giving him post credit scenes forever.
>>732228257That by itself isn’t a bad sentiment, Metroid could use a more expansive rogues gallery and Sylux was positioned to be a sort of rival/foil to Samus she’s never really had before. Issue is, they fucked it up massively because Tanabe is retarded.
>>732222612It is a 6/10, and it is a mediocre game but a bad Metroid game.
>>732228360Prime Hunters came out over 20 years ago, and he was setting up Sylus since Prime 3 as some big antagonist. You'd think in all those years, someone would have sat down, and come up with an actually interesting backstory for him. If you're gonna start doing voice acting, and focusing on more narrative stuff, can you at least not make it shit?
>>732228885Allegedly they DID have interesting backstory for him, which Tanabe promptly ignored in favor of making Sylux a budget Iguazu. Inshallah may he be Gunpei’d soon.
>>732228469no it isn’t
>>732230593dumb tendie secondary
>>732228360>could use a more expansive rogues galleryt. has never played a metroid game
>>732222612>but I had fun with it!if millions of moms copied yours who smoked while she was pregnant with you, maybe it would've been a success
>>732233401they’re literally all dead now you fucking retard
I kind of see Metroid Prime 4 as the Metroid 2: Samus Returns of the 3D series:a long awaited return to Metroid after a severe dry spell that gets a lot of things wrong but still has enough nuggets of good to have potential if they learn from their mistakes.Mercury Stream learned from their mistakes with Samus Returns and Dread was much better, if Retro Studios can do the same with this (especially with Tanabe gone) Prime 5 has hope
>>732222612>nowShould have been evident like an hour and a half in. Absurd how they took the worst aspects of prime 3 and decides to make a game around it. The desert doesnt help either
>>732222612No.
