There was a interview with Sakamoto, people asking him stuff, he was basically saying the first thing that came to mind, it looked like he didn't get neither samus or metrois, so I guess if the series turned into only that, he whould make both justice.

The story wasn't that bad, but the introduction of samus having a voice and very baby like emotions made the whole thing shittier, and other M is much worse for that because it isn't just a monologue when you're riding an elevator, it's every 20 seconds
I really wish they just took prime's lead
>no voice >fucking nothing >maybe a note in the data logs, but elevator rides are quiet and atmospheric >the player thoughts on the areas are basically what samus thinks >>836 People tend to complain when you can't sequence break, but then again that's not really valid because the games were seemingly designed forwards without that entirely in mind.

It astounds me that Sakamoto went from making ZM which gave the player tons of freedom to Other M.

Also, I'm playing Super Metroid now. Currently just got the Speed Booster after beating Kraid. It's a blast right now, but I think the claims that it's non-linear are unfounded. It gives a lot of freedom on where to go, but it's just like Metroid 2 in outside of sequence breaks from some exploits I hear about, the game restricts access to certain areas and encourages backtracking.
Which isn't a complaint because I don't mind that stuff, but I'm just thinking SM shouldn't be held up as an icon of non-linear play.

I'm also willing to admit that because I don't know where I'm going, I'll end up just wandering around which increases my chances of being put into situations where I end up having to back track along the same path again.
It still seems odd to me to be respawned with just 30 health, though. If you're intended to restart a non-successful run, why not remove respawns and passwords entirely?
Anonymous 03/30/15 (Mon) 00:46:33 3a9d3e No. 9088
>>9061 Well I never bothered with the passwords much. It was just more fun to start over and find new areas that I missed before. But that might come from playing NES games as a little kid and I sucked at writing passwords down, so I was used to restarting when I died. Further I don't think you really need a map for Metroid. It can help, yeah, and I see why you'd do it. But it's just too much work imo. Plus going by feeling just feels more immersive for me, and I choose to do that in any game like this.
With the early Metroids, I think the devs just gave you more options overall which helped the series. Options like restarting or not, or speedrunning them, or non-linear play in SM.

It seems that way, but there are some non-obvious ways of doing things way way out of order. Still, it's far from open-world, and the game has a pretty clear suggested order.
Metroid 2 forces you to clear each area in the game sequentially, but you have a lot of freedom within each of those sections. Metroid 2 is my favorite for a variety of reasons.
I think the general opinion of both Fusion and Other M would be way higher if every single cutscene from both games was removed (and the map markers, while they're at it).

Alright, I'm playing Fusion. There are some things I enjoy (easier to use wall jumping, SA-X,) and a lot I don't like. Just got space jump. I'm so far having the opinion that this is right where the series started to turn for the worst outside of the Prime games.

Anyone here know if Prime Trilogy is any good on Wii U? Only thing I know about the Prime series is that it's a first-person action game and that people like it.

>>3793 It's true that the games have one established route through the main plot, but most of the fun of Metroid games is exploring, and trying to find out where you're supposed to go next. Along the way you might find exciting landmarks you can't yet reach, or discover side-areas with upgrades hidden in them. If you tell the player exactly where they're supposed to go next and discourage them from exploring, you remove what is arguably the largest component of the gameplay.

>>11873 I can't say about the Wii u versions, but they're definitely good games. IMO, the best possible migration to 3d we could've hoped for

>>11873 From what I'm aware, that's the best version to get right now barring getting them for Gamecube (You won't). They're virtually the same for Prime 1 and 2, while load times are dramatically cut down from Prime 3's Wii version. Why that's the only one that gets better loadtimes, I don't know.

Does anyone have the image of George Lucas and Sakamoto's faces merged on to each other?

That's Fusion done. Prime next, then Zero Mission I guess followed by Prime 2 and 3.

I'm at the part in Zero Mission where you get your suit back and start wasting Space Pirate ass like theres no tomorrow. How much longer do I have to go?Where does the TUBES joke originate from?

>>13293 It's just a shitty forced meme based on some of the scannable logs on space pirate experimentation in one of the Prime games.

>>13297 >>13293 I figured it had more to do with the fact the pirates had a lot of conveniently placed Samus-sized tubes everywhere.

>>11904 I like exploring too. In fact, the lack of exploring is the biggest reason I never enjoy any game as much the second time. But knowing where to go next doesn't really kill the exploring, it just lets me know exactly where to go last. Though, since Metroid games don't tend to have points of no return, that isn't as necessary knowledge as it is in some games.
