Is she gonna be okayAlso, Metroid thread
What's the point of having a female protagonist if she doesn't get fucked by monsters?
>>747500236>40 years old>Still hunts bountiesI think shell be fine
>>747500236Im surprised it took them 40 years to do space ninjas
>>747500236No. She is not. Samus dies in this game
>>747500236Yeah, she'll be fineShe goes Metroid Suit to try to fight all five of them before causing the collapse. That is the only reason she lives, Metroid Regeneration
>>747500458that's because the games are about her adventures, not what she does in her spare time
Did anyone else think this looked too much like an action game, and not enough like an exploration/adventure game? Hopefully that's just how they're presenting it in advertisements, but it kind of felt like I was watching a normie capeshit trailer.
>>747506427No
>>747506427They just wanted to get people on the hype. Showing Samus moving around the world isn't particularly interesting in itself. It makes for a boring trailer. That's why Dread focused on the EMMI and running from it. Ravenous is supposed to be about Samus dealing with the Metroid Hunger and other things also being hungry for her, so the trailer showcased that. The game will have plenty of exploration.
>>747500236She is fine, see?
>>7475064272d metroid has been pretty action and boss heavy since fusion
>>747506964ryonabait
>>747500458why the fuck would you want to play as a woman just to be fucked by monsters? lmao fuckin loserprotagonists are for being cool and for raping others in porn games
After being so silent and stoic all these years, she sure has been yelling a lot after becoming metroid.
>>747507247this thing DID scream alot
Anyone else think it's kinda fucked up that Metroid itself is kinda the only Metroid style metroidvania title? Everything else is much more on the Vania side, and I don't much care for that.
Going through Dread again and what the fuck was Raven Beak doing on ZDR? So Quiet Robe says the Mawkin slaughtered the Thoha before they even left SR388. He only took Quiet Robe with him because he needed someone to control the Metroids and the Thoha are the only ones who can. I'm not sure why he thinks that. The Mawkin had to help seal off the Metroids specifically because the Metroids got out of control. But fine control of the Metroids got contracted out to one guy. But by the time he went back to SR388 to get the Metroids, Samus had already killed them all. And Samus hadn't become part Metroid herself until Fusion where she assisted the Feds in scouting the planet, a complete coincidence. What was Raven Beak doing between locking up his massacred army and Samus becoming a Metroid
>>747500458>coombrain
>>747507642Holding his dick and cloaca >>747507742A fellow merge online enjoyer!
>>747500236just finished Dread (my first Metroid), enjoyed it. Where to next? I kinda wanna try the Prime series now, do I emulate the og or the remastered?
>>747506427>too much like an action game, and not enough like an exploration/adventure game?Well yeah, it's Dread 2.
>>747500236I used to think the mental link between Samus and the suit shown mainly in Other M was weird and unfitting but I'm liking the way they're doing it here because with all the other crap she's absorbed she feels like she's fully transcended humanity.
>>747507742Creatividad....
>>747507970I would go for Zero Mission now
>>747507970You can emulate OG with Dolphin if you want the old graphics, but Remastered has the twin sticks control options.
>>747508004The Other M shit is dumb because the mental link only serves to make her weaker. Like getting bopped on the head turns the suit off. The suit vanishes when she needs it the most. In Metroid Munchies, the suit is more like an extension of Samus herself. But where before it was more tactical and pragmatic, now she's becoming more monstrous than the monsters she's been fighting. Dark Samus wouldn't fight the thing she's turning into
>>747508004>>747508247The concentration thing is also wrong. As in it's objectively incorrect. Being tied into Samus' emotional state is not how the suit works at all.
>>747508247Strange they decided to make it goofy nano dust that disappears when she gets woozy in otherM, but in Fusion when she was in a coma they literally couldn't get it off and the suit was so sturdy and airtight they had to surgically remove pieces of it with powertools just to be able to inject her with the metroid serum.
>>747508582>>747508606Metroid M has so many flaws with what could had been a great game
Honest question to metroidvania cucksDo you not have genre fatigue? There are so many myriad of metroidvanias (mostly indies) that I can't see why you would ever want more. I kind of like metroidvanias, but I can only play like one a year.Do you never get tired of them? Is metroid so good it just eclipses all others? Do you avoid the other metroidvanias and mainly play metroid?
>>747507960witnessed...
>>747508848I started playing it for the story , have not been dissapointed (currently playing Fusion)
>>747508848I don't care about metroidvanias, I just like Metroid.
>>747508848I play games I like. And avoid the ones I think I wouldn't like. So I do not have fatigue.
Samus is the Ultimate Metroid
>>747508848Metroidvania is a vague concept to begin with. People apply it to any 2D game with power-ups. It encircles a pretty broad range of games with different play styles and gimmicks.
>>747508848Metroidvanias have different feels to them. Like in Hollow Knight your primary attack is melee so my brain responds differently to that than Metroid which is more run and gun
>>747500236merely a flesh wound>>747500458death to coomers
>>747508996Well "Metroid" is Chozo for "Ultimate Warrior"
>>747500458Rajesh...
>>747500236I hope she steals that power and kebab that guy back in their real bossfight
>>747509342She's probably going to eat his nervous system
>>747509208Alpha Ultimate WarriorGamma Ultimate WarriorZeta Ultimate WarriorOmega Ultimate WarriorQueen Ultimate Warriorand the one who stands above them all...Ultimate Ultimate Warrior!
>>747509261India derangement syndrome is ruining this website
>>747506964So fucking hot>>747508606Idiot learn to read it’s because X parasite pretty much shut down the ability for her to remove it naturally. >>747508734Many of those flaws are imaginary. Prime cucks get lost. Other M > Prime series.
>>747506427I agree but I think 1 trailer isn't enough to judge yet. They clearly wanted to focus on the "Ravenous" part and showing slow exploration wouldn't help with that.
>>747509342The trailer indicates that she does get an arm blade for the Metroid Suit. MercurySteam's Metroid games feel like fanfic in the best way.
>>747509874Man I wish they'd make a toy of that suit.
>Rav-I mean Adam: Raven Beak is too powerful for you Samus. Telemetry data indicates that he lifts 4 plates every day and he fucks bird bitches every night. You wouldn't even be a challenge to him even at the peak of your power. Accept your helplessness.
Samus is pretty much a magical girl but instead of a frilly dress she gets a mech suit
>>747510460I see her more as a toku hero.
>>747510619Well she does a rider-kick in the trailer.
>>747508848>Do you not have genre fatigue?No because I only play the Metroid, Castlevania, and Bloodstained games.>Do you never get tired of them?No.>Is metroid so good it just eclipses all others?Yes. Only Castlevania and Bloodstained are equal.>Do you avoid the other metroidvanias and mainly play metroid?Yes except for the ones I mentioned because they just aren't good.
There's a bunch of Metroid threads still lurking out there, so tonight I'm gonna dump a Metroid manga for you nerds.Its Samus and her boy shota having adventures
>metroidvaniaDoesn't exist. There are bargain bin SotN clones and then there is Metroid. Indie devs cannot make good games.
>>747510910don't worry about not posting images or whatever, I'll keep posting until I run out of jpgs or fuckin die
>>747510925Cave Story.
>>747510460If Samus were a magical girl, she'd definitely be more of a Nanoha magitek type.
>>747510767Exactly. And she can henshin up her suit whenever she wants. Or at least she could before Fusion.
>>747510994
>>747511072
>>747511153
>>747507145So what you're saying is that they should make a game where Samus hunts down and rapes Federation troopers with her futa dick instead. Mm, noted
>>747511240
>>747508848No other games that fall under the metroidvania genre feel quite like metroid itself.
>>747507586Yeah the only sci-fi Metroidvanians I can think of are Axiom Verge and Ghost Song. Everything else is just a HollowKnightlike
>stole hand absorption from deltarunebaka
>>747511328
>>747511371I see people referring to Tales of Berseria more.
>>747509994There is an amiibo of it coming out soon.
>>747511413this kid might as well curl a monkey's paw himself
>>747510910Right on, anon, bold to do on /v/ but go for it.Think I got bopped for it a few years back because "this isn't /a/", and when I tried on /a/ nobody gave a shit because it's too old.
>>747500236THEY TOOK HER ASS
>>747511503>>747511506I successfully dumped the Metroid Manga that was Samus's kinda sorta non-canon backstory a couple of weeks ago. Was fun, guess it depends on the jannies that are awake at the time. Granted it was around 11p~12a my time when I did it.
>>747511072>true identity is a mysteryIt is wild to me that this book really commits to the bit.
>>747511547>They took my fucking ass, Adam
>>747511494I know, I was lucky enough to get the Collector's Edition.
>>747511604>>747511629Obviously that's Metroid, nobody knows who his girlfriend is though.
>>747507493PTSD from beating this bitch on a minimum percent run. fuck the run back
>>747511547You're complaining about ass when Samus has always had dem tits?
>>747511547She never actually had one.
>>747511702
>>747511506Really? My storytime of it was decently popular two years ago
>>7475118014chan's a fickle place.
>>747511786>>747511801Its a different time, I remember dumping Superman: Red Son when Arkham City was coming out because they announced Russian Batman as a skin. Granted everyone was dumping Batman comics back then
>>747511913Samus has always aura farmed
>>747511604I wish the games leaned in more on the idea of the Space Pirates being made up of multiple species. You can infer it since their designs change so much between games, but it's never made explicit.
>>747512000>>747512032I feel like Retro really solidified them as one race of beings, but that was due to misunderstanding the source material and they were in too deep by the time they realized it making Prime 3.
>>747512032I prefer the J- I mean Space Pirates as Zebesian ethnonationalists. And I'm aware that the Zebesians are colonists, not natives, but you must understand that Zebes was promised to them 3000 years ago
>>747512000Enter a savior.
>>747512125>mfw seeing Samus in Smash 64
>>747511702>thsi Charizard lookin ass nigga straight up killed a dude on panel>in a kid's mangaTo this day, I have no idea how Metroid gets away with being way darker and serious than most other Nintendo IPs.
>>747512231>>747512246why I've always been drawn to it, only Nintendo franchise that takes itself extremely seriously and having a comprehensible timeline. The only jokes are at the Space Pirates expense in Prime series.
>>747512352
>>747512246Its Japan. They hardly ever sugarcoat stuff in kids media.
>>747507642It's possible sealing away the X took so long that Fusion had already happened by then.Or he was just biding his time because he figured it was likely that another source of Metroid DNA would eventually come up. Maybe he even knew Samus spared the baby and knew he only had to wait.
>>747512429
>>747512523>Go ahead and shoot, I never intended to spare you.Jesus fucking christ
>>747512231>>mfw seeing Samus in Smash 64Same, honestly. I got into Metroid because "Hey, this Samus character seems cool. I'm gonna check out her games.". >>747512125>I feel like Retro really solidified them as one race of beings, but that was due to misunderstanding the source material and they were in too deep by the time they realized it making Prime 3.Which is why it's important for companies to get the hell over themselves and properly communicate with their international branches.

>>747512607Samus is such a hard bitch, goddamn. >>747512692>grabs the bullet out of the air as it's exiting the barrel... Girl. Anyone complaining about Samus being over the top cool needs to understand that MercurySteam got from the mangas. Seriously, all of them have her do shit like this.
>>747512860
>>747512937>>747512907While dumping the Metroid origin manga, there's a lot of shit MS borrowed and tweaked from that. It's mind blowing honestly.

>>747514276skipping a credits page
>>747514310It helps that it's in manga form and not an anime, where his voice would no doubt be insufferable.
>>747500236I can't believe Samus is dead
>>747514276If this is what Super Missiles look like, what's the manga version of Power Bombs? I don't actually recall if she uses any in this book, but I assume it's just a straight up nuke.
>>747514378We chapter 2 now>BIOWEAPONS?!THE BABY
>>747514474>>747514470Neutron bomb for block breaking, pls understand

>>747514378He's just a little guy! Yeah, I don't blame Samus for wanting to adopt him.
>>747514639>Until you become a mummy.Please mummy, latch onto me and suck my energy
>>747514754So I guess this is between 1 and 2
>>747514836Metroids are just fuckin everywhere

>>747514997>Megaroidbet it doesn't even have Phazon in it
>>747514836Oh, this should see some use. >So I guess this is between 1 and 2Granted, there are like, six games between 1 and 2, but most of them didn't exist yet when this first came out.
>>747515082
>>747515159kid gets an arm cannon pointed at him and he just slaps it away
Any chance of grabbing the special edition by now?
>>747514920>Metroids are just fuckin everywhereThe Chozo really did leave their shit lying around all over the place.
>>747515249Remember, Samus will rough up her shotas for their own protection>>747515271doubt it :c
>>747515365
>>747515445
>>747515365For someone who typically operates solo without any social interaction, Samus is a surprisingly wise mentor. I guess she has a lot of time to think while rummaging around dead civilizations and digging through their trash to see how they fucked up.

ohmygod nigger you could have just dropped a link to the manga instead of posting every single fucking page
>>747516243>>747516292no, Metroid Database has it if you dislike storytimes
>>747500236holy. fucking. kino.
>>747516243Lil' bro was just wearing a corpse. What the fuck, kid.
>>747516384Koopa Troopa suspects nothing
Figured this is the place to ask: Which Metroid should I start with? I'm between Super Metroid and Zero MissionOn one hand, Zero Mission is a remake of the first one so it's nice for the chronology. I'm aware that people generally advice against going for the very first one as a starting gameOn the other hand, Super Metroid released first, so I'm afraid that it might feel like too much of a regression gameplay-wise if I played Zero Mission first. At least the SNES has more buttons than the GBA so maybe my concerns are unfoundedBasically, how much does Super Metroid benefit from having played Zero Mission?
>A Luminoth once tried to test me. I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti
>>747516476>the mind control is on the fritz>whatever, worry about it later>>747516515Zero Mission since its the beginning, but Super Metroid for mechanics progression. It's honestly either or and they both stand up pretty well
>>747516557I hate it when my tail gets caught in the elevator
>>747514836Aren't a lot of her power-ups from Super though?
>>747500458What is the point of a tall female character if she doesn't dominate a shorter guy?
>>747516538Would Samus' metroid powers work on the Ing? Could she eat extra-planar darkness monsters? ... What do they taste like?
>>747516656>>747516661Yeah, I'm only guessing this story takes place in-between 1 & 2 since the Metroids aren't "extinct". This was in 2003 so they're just including everything she's used in Super too as a retcon. I wouldn't take it too seriously, definitely not canon.
>>747515082>MegaroidSamus must find a cream to surpass Preparation H if she hopes to defeat this new enemy! Preparation M!
>>747516770Science team are zoomers
>>747516747That's gay and safe-horny. Tall & built women are made to be ryona'd and guro'd by a horde of monsters.

Going to start the series. Should I begin with Zero Mission or Super? I heard Zero Mission is great for beginners, but I also wouldn’t want to go into Super with the controls being less slick than ZM and being put off by that.
>>747518019>>747518025Just flip a coin bro, they're both good. Super isn't even *that* clunky compared to the others.
>>747517848That's some Getter Robo villain shit
>>747518025NES really isn't that badit does things that none of the others have done since
>>747518025Both are great. I'd personally go for Super, but there's not a wrong answer.

>>747522571Joey is speccing into monk
>>747522250I love the implication that Samus was watching Joey's contemplation session from orbit and was waiting for him to come to the realization.
>>747509874They learned that from doom eternal, also she can rider punch with both of her hands and rider kick people now.
>>747522250You gotta send a message

>>747522863>>747522927Hot take, but I would love a Metroid game that takes place in populated areas.
>>747523070your mom lets you have two mouths?!>>747523119beat neat to have a populated hub world, but also kinda weird at the same time

>>747500236Oh wow Metroid is just total capeshit now great job Nincringedo you pack of way over the hill scheming two-face retarded assclowns. Yeah yeah I'm sure Chozo blood or whatever means Samus doesn't really need that lung she just got stabbed in, tis but a flesh wound! Excellent! No notes!
>>747523296This dude is a straight up toku villain. >>747523528I like Diesel. He reminds me of Krunk from Metal Arms: Glitch in the System. I also love the idea of Samus actually having friends.

>>747524336Roundy! Samus being a cute autist about spherical objects is canon as far as I'm concerned.

I'm not buying a Switch 2 just for one game
>>747524910they did a good job re-creating the Fusion stills, unless they just used pages from this and colorized it before it got published

I find it interesting how Metroid of all things had at least five promotional manga(technically six if you want to count Invasion Order). I guess they REALLY wanted Metroid to catch on in Japan. But it just didn't take.
>>747525362I'M BACK WITH VOLUME 2, will definitely need to start a new thread in the middle. We're running out of images.Also for some retarded reason it starts on page 66 so I think the scanlator or whoever packed this together can't count

>>747508848Metroid is the only one I’ve really played, I like Psycho Dream tho if that counts
>>747509874I mean Metroids always had sharp appendages
So why can't Nintendo just make enough Special Editions for the people who want it? Like if you have an NSO account you get to place an order and they fill as many as they get plus however many they make for retail. Fighting against bots is shit and after 4 days I've had 0 luck.
>>747527324>>747527379artificial scarcity, they don't care about scalpers because they make money either way. Only The Pokemon Company seems to actually care because people are literally killing each other over cards.
>>747511494Only for the SE and good luck beating bots for it if there's any chance of grabbing them anymore. >>747509994Hoping for a Figma since their Prime 3 and Dread suit figures are fantastic.
>>747527453I hate space yetis
>>747500236lol
>>747500236right on the tiddy
>>747527529Space Yeti hates bad mommies!
>>747527610
>>747527679
>>747527529So many of the monsters in this manga make really pervy faces, I swear.
>>747508848The only non Metroid ones I ever remotely enjoyed are Castlevania: SotN and Bloodstained. I have zero interest in replaying either and every other game in the genre bores me.
>>747527749
>>747509208Which fixes the plothole with how Metroid Prime can't possibly be a Metroid.
>>747527840
>>747527902
>>747518523>Samus doesn't really have an in-universe reason to hide her identity.I'm sure she likes being able to go shopping and not having too many people swarm her. She may be known to the public but only in the suit so she's fine beyond being hit on if she just doesn't give her name when out and about.
>>747527984
>Samus speaks english in the Japanese Ravenous trailerthat's kind of lame, her voice for the Prime 4 commercials was good
>>747526250la cazadora...
>>747528080Yeti wants to make a sibling for Joey
>>747528149
>>747528048Privacy makes sense, but I'm not sure why she hides her gender outside of the meta reasons. >being hit onEven in this space opera universe, I don't think there's anyone who has the confidence to shoot their shot with an absolute gigastacy like her. At least, not anyone who knows better. ... So the inevitable Illumination movie WILL have that scene, right?
>>747524917There are many games available and in development for the Nintendo Switch 2.
>>747528235
>>747528303>Oh god he's still alive, at least I don't have to pay child support
Metroid makes me happy. It’s exciting we will have a new entry to play and discuss soon.
Maybe I should finish Metroid Dread. I'm in the final area anyway.
>>747528373>>747528405Just wish the trailer had "M E T R O I D 6". Maybe we'll get one in December.
>>747528437Yes, then you should replay it so all the hidden comedy becomes available to you.
>>747528462>>747528437do it, final boss is a fun as fuck boss fight that utilizes 90% of your kit
>>747524917I bought a Switch 2 for future titles and the midnight release experience. It became my Air Riders machine for a bit, but now with Fortune’s Weave, Ravenous, and The World Beyond, I’m being blessed for my purchase.
>>747528538Mystery niggas....
>>747528589We are done with Chapter 6!
>>747508848>Do you not have genre fatigue? I only play Metroids>metroidvania What the fuck are you talking about?
>>747528669We startin Chapter 7!
>>747522747Did you take note on the music of the trailer? It will be DOOM all over again
>>747528741
>>747528814beware the killer pen-pens
>>747528867
>>747528934
>>747529005
>>747528867>penguinsThe weirdest thing about Metroid is that Earth apparently does exist(Echoes even has a mention of Santa Claus), but we never see it. Then again, I guess I'm not sure what you'd do with it. Like, a game set in Japan? Quite a bit less interesting than an alien world.
>>747529070
So what does Samus get for being essentially the last queen Metroid? They drain life force until the victim is literal dust. But does this translate as just being akin to food or does she get that life force for herself full tilt? Is she now immortal for example? She can obviously heal from extreme injury now. Is it a Mega Man situation where she can acquire abilities or is it more? Can she take skills and memories too? Is she now basically a space vampire?Will she mutate and become huge the more she eats, like all Metroids?
>>747503303>>747501354>>747500236Looks like it kept most of the same mechanics from dread.Is this good or bad anons?!I feel they should have tried to add at least 1 new mechanic
>>747529148>>747529137Either it's just the homeworld of humans and they've propagated the galaxy so it's not that important. Or something terrible happened and everyone has moved on by now, like how Pikmin implies Earth is after humanity.
>>747529152I presume it's just food. Maybe they'll explore that. >>747529187>I feel they should have tried to add at least 1 new mechanicS U C C
>>747529274
>>747529357LOOK OUT, ITS A SINGLE MOTHER WITH A GUN
>>747529274Or, Pikmin IS the Metroid Earth. There's no humans because they all left the planet after some disaster. It's also the same Earth in Kirby. The theory that all of Nintendo's space games are in the same universe fits too well.
>>747529428Jesus Christ the Metroid universe fuckin sucks to live in
>>747529330Ohhh yeah the sucking, but it doesnt seem to effect the gameplay as far as we know so far.Only thing i can think of is after you drain enough enemies it lets you use green samus but that may be to OP for early game shenanigans
>>747529428>singleNot for long. Samus is about to add her to the harem.
>>747529494>>747529472I've always headcanoned that anyway. Hell F-Zero and Star Fox reference each other. Fox's dad races and the F-Zero machines use G-Diffusers.
>>747529567
>>747529472Kirby, Samus, Fox, Captain Falcon, and Olimar inhabit the same universe as far as I’m concerned.Hell, after the Galaxy movie you could argue Mario and co do too.
>>747529137Given that Samus shows up in Kirby's Dream Land 3, Earth was frozen over as shown in Kirby 64
>>747529671
>>747529187Why the pic of the tranny from Bleach?
>>747529742>Damn it Joey, I'm a doctor. Not a mother!!
I don't wanna read this whole manga, gimme the TL;DR
>>747529494>Jesus Christ the Metroid universe fuckin sucks to live inI really hope that's just what it looks like from the audience perspective. We always see this world with Samus as she's on some mission where she's fighting horrible monster things. Maybe the civilized parts of the galaxy are fine. >>747529567>I've always headcanoned that anyway. Hell F-Zero and Star Fox reference each other. Fox's dad races and the F-Zero machines use G-Diffusers.Samus famously straight up cameos in Dreamland 3 as well. Plus, F-Zero also has a Galactic Federation.
>>747529810
>>747528048There’s that comic where she’s showing her id and the alien reading it is like “oh, Samus Aran, like the bounty hunter! Wonder what she’s up to!” And she responds “uh. This.”
>>747529872>>747529852Samus finds a boy named Joey on a planetThey have space adventuresthat's the quick version of it
>>747529742>>747529810To be absolutely fair, there are people heavily injured at this very moment.
>>747529951
>>747530049
>>747530126
>>747529852Samus molests children
>>747529853And Captain Falcon himself is also a bounty hunter.

>>747530889We ended Chapter 7!I'm probably gonna start a new thread so I don't have to start one in the middle of a chapter
>>747530989Cool ship design. Looks like something I've seen before. Twinbee? That hopping robot game from PS1?
>>747531176>>747531176>>747531176>>747531176Continuation in this thread, hopefully it doesn't get blammed.
So, the order I should play the games on my 3DS is: Zero Mission, Fusion, Samus Returns, Super Metroid, Metroid Dread?
>>747533401bro how are you playing Dread on your 3DS wtfAlso ZM -> SR -> Super -> Fusion -> Dread makes more sense
>>747533401ZM - SR - Super - Fusion - Dread is chronologicalSuper - Fusion - ZM - SR - Dread is release order
>galactic bounty hunter>look inside>it's just a blonde woman going on adventures and destroying planetsfeather pubes
>Dread but no EMMIs and 120 fpsI'll nut.
>>747527227Doomguy's dick puts horses to shame.At least she can regenerate.
>>747528779Yes, which is hilarious.
>>747529330They are copying the nuDooms, it is argent energy for her.
>>747533686Obviously I'm not playing Dread on my 3DS. I know chronologically Fusion is before Dread, but I kinda wanted to play Fusion before playing Samus Returns because I figured Samus Returns probably has QoL features missing from Fusion and Super.
>>747535724Kinda, I feel Returns is actually more clunky than Super and Fusion. Aiming feels better, but that's about it.
>>747500236I mean, that is the opening scene, you may notice she's wearing the Dread sui and not the new Fusion-like suit that's likely how she loses most of her upgrades.
>>747510257While he was tooting his own horn the entire time he was not wrong, that final battle requires every single upgrade, Samus in the yellow suit would have died in ten seconds.
>>747535841Hm, interesting. I've got no issues with sprites, and hell I think some games from the 80's (like Outrun) and 90's have fantastic 2D graphics. I guess I feel like going from Samus Returns directly to Dread would feel like a nice upgrade.
>>747536664definitely do release order then, SR -> Dread makes more sense anyway since mechanically Dread is a direct sequel
>>747508848>There are so many myriad of metroidvanias (mostly indies)That suck beyond all reason and have no idea what makes the genre good. I dont get tired of them, because there are seriously SO few good ones out there.
I am playing super metroid for the first time
Why does Dread not have a Switch 2 version? I wanted to catch up on the series but it's pissing me off that I'd have to play at 720p.
>>747500236Who's even left for Samus to fight? As far as I know, the Metroids, X, Space Pirates, and with Dread the evil faction of Chozo are done for.
>>747537690just enable the tv mode in handheld thing
>>747537690just emulate it, it runs great. at least on my machine>>747537856that splinter Federation faction that got hinted at in Fusion and Dread. Or just the Feddies in general since Samus is now the most dangerous lifeform in existence.
>>747508848Metroid feels way better to play than any others in the genre, as far as I'm concerned.
>>747538029Hollow Knight duo, Metroid and the Castlevanias (Portrait of Ruin especially) are the peak imo.None of the other Metroidvanias feel quite as good.
>>747511784the japanese have only recently gotten fat enough to appreciate asswhich is strange because far east asians statistically have the highest hip-waist ratio in the world
>>747500236I hope her boob heals alrightthat looks like it might've hit the nip
>>747517848this isn't tubes or the benimaru comic*yawn*
>>747522336I like to think Samus places shotas at stations all throughout the galaxy so there is always one nearby if she needs one
>>747538947We need a Shota power-up in game. He can fit in small cracks that the morph ball can't
>>747500236Is her boob gonna be alright?
>>747537856You did see these guys in the trailer, right?
>>747508848Super Metroid perfected the genre right out the gate, and every other metroidvania falls utterly short of its glory
>>747539289the Akatsuki?
>>747539443Y'know what, sure
>>747529187Actually examine the HUD in the trailer, there's some real oddities.>Missiles appear to have been completely reworked, you only seem to have a set of 12 at any given time.>There's a yellow gauge above the missiles that isn't health (health is the pink bar), is filled by collecting the yellow orbs enemies drop, but isn't used by anything we've seen so far (flash shift doesn't use it for example).>A snowflake marker that flashes in cold areas now exists, you don't have it at the start, it isn't related to the Varia suit, there's no hot area equivalent, may be some new thing related to Samus' Metroid cold vulnerability
>>747539667>flash shift doesn't use it for exampleWell there goes my theory that they're making Aeion like how it worked in Samus Returns again. Thank God, honestly
>>747537856raven beak and ridley will return as ghosts
>>747537462Same. A little embarrassed to admit, but I didn’t know you could change the controls. I had put off finishing the game for so long because I just couldn’t click with the controls. Now that I’ve modified them to my liking, it’s been smooth sailing.
>>747524729Smooth brain that’s the point. Our protagonist is losing her humanity and becoming something else. She gets stabbed through where her heart should be and is fine. Tells you her heart isn’t there anymore.
>>747537856The red crab guys, that ancient order that collects powerful artifacts, the exelion star corporation, new factions.
Just thought about it. Is it normal for a rated E game to feature someone being impaled?
>Dread on saleWell that's neat for the people who don't have it already. Probably not neat for all the people who bought it immediately when Ravenous got announced though lmao
>>747511604Our favorite goofy tube enthusiasts.
>>747513309>>747513396Joey a cute.
>>747514083Joey has such massive fucking balls.
>>747537856Feds and bounty hunters, now that Samus is The Last Metroid they'll want to capture her for research
