![]() there is a new state to put enemies in where you can do death blows that are always the same but to make sure you never miss them they boosted enemy hp so they're damage sponges now sense moves mean that you are likely never in any risk Traversal is beyond bad for at least 3 reasons : Your only form of pick ups are pointless upgrades that are signposted everywhere in case you're too dumb to miss one.īoss fights are snorefests where the only creative part is how the autopilot will deal the death blow with a cool move you'll never pull yourself. There's like 1 or 2 new power ups, everything else is warmed leftovers from better games. There's no exploration, to go with the theme of Samus not being authorized anything, the game doesn't allow you to explore anything till the very end and you're given a goddamn GPS showing you everywhere you'll ever get and don't you ever dare try to backtrack because doors lock up behind you so forward is the only way to go. On the very first cutscene, I realized I was commenting on how BBS knew how to tell a story about characters and make you understand what the characters were and making you care for them.īut that's not even close to the worst offense this game does. The next game I played after this atrocity was Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. It is beyond known that the story in Other M is crap. It didn't brick my Wii which is about the only positive I can give. The 2 things I care the most in Metroid games : exploration and music were beyond crap. It is by a significant margin the worst thing I ever had the misfortune of interacting with that had the name Nintendo on the box. Other than that, the game is just flawed to the core due to that shit """inventive""" control scheme that has been analyzed to death and I have nothing new to add to discuss about and the less is said about the story, the better (what a shlockfest).Īll in all, 5/10, didn't despise it, but I can see how it had such a negative splash (especially in the context of its release at the time). The game is flawed up the ass, but there are some things I did like, despite it all.įirst of all, the atmosphere was pretty dang good, The Bottle Ship made for a pretty unnerving setting + the whole "dream-like" aspect with the holograms.Īlso, how come nobody brings up the cinematic finishers, those were pretty rad (loved the one done by jumping on an enemy).Īnd as a last thing, I didn't bother with the post game since I had my fill, but how nice and cool of the developers to mark every unpicked item after you beat the main game, makes the thought (emphasis on "thought") of going back for 100% much more tolerable. Hey, I played it too for the first time recently to "prepare" for Dread. During the past weeks, I have completed Super Metroid, Zero Mision, Fusion, Samus Returns, Prime 2 and Other M. My preparation for Dread is not complete. Just don't let Team Ninja nowhere near the story. The game is not really a metroidvania but more an action game and I did not mind that. Quite frankly I would not mind seeing a sequel with a few polish. Hunting for missiles was more or less pointless besides completion rate and enemies not dropping anything made fighting them useless unless you are forced to. I like that the post game content had a boss unrelated to the main plot. Speaking of bosses, fighting Nightmare from Fusion and Phantoon from Super was a nice surprise. The first person mechanic was just an unnecessary gimmick that hampered the gameplay especially when fighting multiple enemies or bosses. I was expecting them to be awful for semi 3D sections but no. The controls were sur surprisingly good with just the dpad. It's so satisfying dodging at the last minute and landing a killing blow with a charge shot. The charge shot feedback is probably the best the series ever had. The gameplay on the other hand was pretty good. ![]() The big reveal about Mother Brain at the end got me rolling my eyes. The excuse to lock your abilities based on Adam humor was pretty lame and made no sense. ![]() It's like someone said Samus is too bad ass to be a women so let's put a man behind her. Let's get it out the way, the story and characters are garbage.
