Not one single person who likes it has good taste. Super Metroid was already massively overrated, but still good; Prime is just downright rancid and a complete bastardization of the series.
Based, Metroid Prime fucking sucks>one-stick first person movement feels terrible >extremely cramped 60° FOV especially bad since you must lock in place to be able to even turn your head slightly>for some reason manually aiming up and down is some herculean effort and you must jam the stick for like 5+ seconds just to slowly crawl your arm up>numerous areas are near pitch black dark with no flashlight (or even suit glow)>constant backtracking and ping-ponging to opposite ends of the world>new power-up paths all result in dead-ends aside from the one prescribed critical path (the game even recognizes its progression and navigation are terrible which is why it blatantly signposts everything with a literal quest marker)>bosses are dull Simon Says dogshit>no consistent way to farm missiles back if you waste them aside from backtracking all the way back to the ship or one of the few rare missile refill stations>scanning shit constantly is incredibly tedious and boring>enemies offer no incentive to bother with them and you can just run right past 90% of them barely taking a scratch>environments are extremely bland and generic (hot zone, cold zone, grass zone, rock zone)>environments are very visually flat and hard to read (especially in conjunction with the narrow FOV and restricted camera movement)>first-person platforming sections with a 60° FOV unsurprisingly feel terrible>map system is mostly fine except transitions between areas require you to completely exit that area, scroll over to the other area map, and then manually line up where the two meet >movement is incredibly underwhelming compared to Super Metroid and you are constantly starting and stopping>last third of the game becomes a shitty cover shooter in a game with some of the absolute worst combat and first person controls out there>cockblocks you at the end with massive long backtracking fetch quest for all the remaining chozo artifacts
I like it and I have good tastes, therefore you are wrong.
>>736453785>>736453851Nah.btfocope/thread
>>736453785Agreed, out of the 90ish games I beat last year it was one of the worst. Here's every game I beat best to worst
It's easy to understand why people don't like this game, but try to get an answer out of people who like it about why they do and watch the struggle.
Other M was the last good game in the series
>>736453851>no consistent way to farm missiles back if you waste them aside from backtracking all the way back to the ship or one of the few rare missile refill stationsYou zoomer shitters always out yourselves in your gay bullet point critiques about hating games you're too dumb to play. Who the fuck runs out of missiles? >cockblocks you at the end with massive long backtracking fetch quest for all the remaining chozo artifactsLiterally replaying the game now after it's been years and I've found 8 of the 12 before I've finished collecting power-ups.Maybe you zoomers need to stop sucking ass and blaming the games.
>>736454207Defense of this game always comes down to "hah you must be bad for not having intimate game knowledge like I do didn't you know you're never supposed to use the item they give you? You might run out!"
>>736453785It's the same shit for me when it comes to a lot of PlayStation 1/2 games. MGS, silent hill, resident evil 1-3, devil may cry etc...It's actually the baby games like crash,Spyro, klonoa, and ratchet and clank that have aged the best. There were movie games in the PS1/PS2 days.
>>736454264lmao, sucks to suck. Have fun with your faggot ass engagement bait thread, zoomtard.
>>736454321>Broooo you didn't know about this endgame twist already? wtf? You're supposed to beat the game 8 times before making an opinion on it this way the momentum killing shit they throw at you right before the last boss only kills it a little bit!Yeah fans of this game are so raped.
>>736453785>>736453851A lot of the same things can be said about RE1-3, you're either into them or not. Saying they're overrated though is pleb tier
>>736453785I really tried to get into it back in the day, but just couldn't. The level design combined with the color scheme was terrible, it was like trying to swim through a maze flooded with dull, murky water. And I don't even remember any combat from it at all, though there must have been at least some considering how far I did get before losing interest.
>>736454424When you deconstruct the game it's a literal walking simulator with dog shit combat. At least point and click games have better puzzles.
Other M was the last real Metroid game
>>736454264Dood you ran out of missles in prime 1 wtf r u dooinLike even if you DID legitimately run out, every other enemy drops them.
>Super Metroid was already massively overratedStopped reading there. It's literally one of the most GOATed Ninty games ever made. Like top 5 easy.
>>736454694>inb4 Fags with PTSD because of Samus having PTSD
What a shitty fucking week for this board, not a single good thread.
I can understand why people wouldn't like this game. I just think it's funny how loud and angry they get about it.
>>736454920Why is it always Super Metroid fanboys that have the worst fucking taste imaginable?Shitty action and platforming, pisseasy enemies and hazards that don't even pose the slightest threat, one-dimensional bosses, and 90% of the game is spent slowly inspecting every title of every room, but it's a masterpiece btw
>>736453785yeah people gets filtered by great games all the time, you are not that special>but this one isnt greatyeah yeah whatever
>>736455504What games do you enjoy?
>>736454034taste so bad it's obviously bait
>>736455539>le filtered by game beat on original hardware (GCN version) with no guide usageRetard alert
>>736454034around 60% of that list is pure slop
>>736454420How the hell do you even run out of missles you fucking retard? Especially when the game keeps constantly giving them to you like it's fucking candy
>>736455504Nice repost fag
>>736455659
>>736455578I'm this >>736454034 posterHere's my favorites
>>736454180Other M had all the bones to be a good Metroid game. But Sakamoto had to ruin it with his retardation.
>>736455702It's just every game I beat last year, I didn't say every game was good. I did enjoy most of them though DKCR is the cutoff for greatSplinter Cell is the cutoff for goodMax Payne 2 and below were mediocre-bad
>>736454034Mother, weeg house, and Ape Escape are all way too low, what the fuck?
>>736453785Zoomietroons don't deserve video games
>>736455968I didn't enjoy them at all
>>736455801That's unfortunate
>>736456454Nah, I've been playing games for over 25 years, and probably beat well over 1000 at this point. I don't feel the need to posture over what games are actually good just because they're not /v/ approved or whatever the fuck
>>736455706Different anon, dumb fuck. Why are prime fans so fucking stupid?
>>736453785>>736453851No lies detected
>>736458116The point still stands anyone who spams missles like a braindead ape is a fucking retard
If there's one thing I appreciate, it's Prime not having the gay zero suit at the end. I always hated the games having goonershit in the end sequences. It's disrespectful.
>>736453919Yeahgtfoarrest>threading your own thread
>>736455706>49 fucking missile upgrades in MP1>DUDE BUT WHY ARE YOU USING ONE OF THE MAIN WEAPONS IN THE GAME? ARE YOU A RETARD??? LOLOLOLYou Prime fans sure are fucking stupid
>>736453785Nah you're gay
>>736453851Not reading all that, but I will agree.
I didn't read the thread but Prime is pretty good until you reach the flooded space pirate ship and then it becomes a slog to get through for the rest of the game. Thanks for reading.
>>736453851Maybe, I still enjoy it
Zero Mission is my favorite game of all time (but I can acknowledge that Super is the superior game)
