>Samus is too cool in Dread. It's forced
Do you agree with this sentiment Ganker?

Are you the fag that made the video about Sonic needing to be vulnerable looking?
No, I just remember anons complaining about "marvel poses" and shit with her in this game.
If marvel is brought up then it's likely the thread was arguing with ACfag.
rofl he
called you there. you're defo that fag you mong retard cunt
>marvel poses
Literally one of the first things Samus does in Metroid Prime, is a massive, exaggerated spinning jump-flip, and land on one knee in an action pose prepared to fight (After having spent a good 5 seconds looking to ensure nobody is even present to see this)
Samus being a huge chuuni predates the MCU by six fucking years
>MP - 2002
>Iron Main - 2008
?t=120
ACfag ETERNALLY btfo
I like exaggerated jumps. I liked them before marvel movies existed.
I don't care for them either way, just stating there's an established precedent for Samus being a theatrical dork.
hut the fuck up acfag.
No triple moron.
No one is buying you 'her der someone else said x' shit.
best part of the game
No.
>Samus is too cool
What, is Other M your favorite?
Other M is kino you gay and the most realistic depiction of Samus. Sorry the best game broke your chud fantasies about women by having Samus rely on actual men (as they should) instead of being a "strong independent woman who don't need no man"
Yawn.
he's right samus should stay feminine
hello dobson
Other M is so terrible even Ganker contrarians can't pretend to ironically like it.
They can certainly pretend, they're just really bad at it.
I likd parts of Other M but over all it wasn't great.
>belly button
>shaft base/pubis mons
dangerous posting.
It was made by yellow people, which automatically makes it shit.
it's also a badly designed game.
Just like Forespoken
Bait and the only way that Other M cpuld be consider realistic (as if realism matters over consistency), given Samus' skillset and experience, is if it was a bad porn parody. Matter of fact, THAT wouldn't even be realistic as many porn parodies actually respect the characters that they are parodying.
You are such a pathetic moron its unreal. I am sick and tired of you fags who can't stand seeing fiction be unrealistic and insist that works of fantasy need to abide by real world rules. Why the fuck can't a woman be badass in a work of FICTION? You sjw morons sicken me.
Why does Adam "sacrifice" himself to take care of the metroids on the bottleship? Literally just wait for the station to detonate you retard, that's what killed all the extra metroids in Fusion. Why does the game act like the prospect of ice proof metroids is a new idea? How fucking clueless can the writing be to it's own series? They literally gain ice resistance by maturing normally.
Metroid Dread feels weirdly like fanfiction, ESPECIALLY her gaining Metroid draining powers because "you have become a Metroid".
Continuing the story of Fusion, yes. The Fusion storyline is its own timeline, like the Zelda games.
she got infected by the x parasite in fusion, giving her metroid dna as i recall.
No The metroid VACCINE that saves her from the X is what is thought to be the reason why during most of the game. Near the end it explains it was the events of Super Metroid that added the DNA to samus. The Vaccine in Fusion just jump started it.
I'm fine with that. At least it's western fanfiction and not Sakamoto's fanfiction.
The draining powers is a bit much but they should have made it where she's slowly getting more and more metroid powers as time goes on.
The last power will be the ability to crawl
why? you were extra vulnerable to cold in fusion, seems entirely appropriate
It might as well be tge devs are trash
Best way to continue a series that tried to kill itself plot wise by the second game and then again with Fusion. It can always be called metroid, because Samus is a metroid.
>because Samus is a metroid.
Not only that but "Metorid" is Chozo for Great Warrior.
Yeah but that's a pretty autistic subtext, Metroids now being human is a great idea. You could do a lot with it.
If you're into metroid "lore" you should have a nice day.
Gameplay is king, atmosphere is queen, story is just the court jester.
Amen to that. If I wanted to care about Samus and her feelings, I'd go read a visual novel.
Story is literally what tanked the series in other M. Thankfully they moved away from that retarded gameplay and went back to making tight platforming and some halfway decent bosses.
I fucking liked when they spoke chozo and shit. I don't care about watermelon suit, but I thought that the chozo part was good. I thought they were supposed to be extinct, but I think that got retconned in hunters (another shit series)
Anyway prime is gay too speaking of visual novels. If I wanted Wikipedia articles on every enemy, or unintuitive puzzles that boil down to "read this text box" I would just kill myself instead.
No, it would be weird if she was still nervous after killing these assholes a dozen times. They even made a point of her being on guard then easing up when she sees Kraid.
No, because she's earned it.
>doesn't bring this back in the Remastered
The only gripe I have. And maybe the Thermal Visor too.
No and people who say that are fags
not a samus fan and i've never played a single game but
>muffled AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Samus has earned her badassery by this point. She's seen enough shit.
Why does Nintendo like this QTE-loving tumor of a company again?
Nintendo loves QTEs
Because they are good devs when tard wrangled?
Much like Platnium Star and Monolith Soft.
Feeling "badass" in a game has to be earned. That means the game needs to be constantly challenging you, so the feeling of triumph is genuine. Dread's problem is that it relies too much on quick time events to feel more "epic" and "over-the-top".,The same people who like these moments also praise Other M for its """artistic value""" so I wouldn't trust them.
>kamehameha beam
>shonen themes in cutscenes/QTEs
the beaners who made this game need to DIAF
You earn this sequence through a pretty tough 3-part final boss fight. I don’t know what the complaint is here.
>ameritard thinks anyone who speaks Spanish is a mexican
Anon thats bait, there is no need for the "complaint" to make sense.
>A stupid beaner falls for the bait.
lol
lmao
seethe harder third worlder
Unfortunately guys, you don't seem to get it. The moment is still not earned because it's not the end credits. Until the game literally ends, you are not supposed to be "given a free win". That's participation trophy thinking, and it doesn't belong in metroid.
>b-but the fight against Mother Brain
Worst fight in the entire game, put in only because muh emotions. If you were to remove that stupid fight, the game would improve 100%. Stop coddling the audience with insultingly easy gameplay.
low effort trolling
agreed
what's wrong with what I've said? Why can't I hate portions of the game where it's clear they exist for the cinematic appeal?
This is literally the end of the fucking game. This is the same as getting the fucking hyper beam shit against Mother Brain in Super.
You think that fuck has played Super?
>This is literally the end of the fucking game
it's a cutscene so it's enough for ACfag to shitpost about it.
>The same people who like these moments also praise Other M for its """artistic value""" so I wouldn't trust them.
this is an illogical leap, something ACfag likes to do
>it's a cutscene
Really it's just repurposing the omega beam and killing EMMI mechanics.
>Feeling "badass" in a game has to be earned. That means the game needs to be constantly challenging you, so the feeling of triumph is genuine.
>Webm comes after defeating the final and hardest boss of the game.
Yeah that moment was earned and it felt great, as did the final run to the ship while lasering everything.
I didn't even notice that was Craig until my second playthrough.
That's not a QTE. It's a scripted event. It doesn't tell you what button to press.
It doesnt need to tell you what to press. If you miss the shot or dont do it long enough you die.
Dying if you fail is not what makes a QTE. Plenty of them exist that let you progress regardless of if you succeed or not.
Besides that, what makes QTEs bad is that they are just a button prompt that is inserted into a cutscene, and they are not trying to tie into the core gameplay at all. The scripted event in Metroid Dread's final boss is not like that. It's taking the existing gameplay element of the EMMI kill segments (except you can't aim, you can only shoot), and adding it into the final boss fight. It's less a QTE and more of a gameplay segment where some control is taken away from you and you are limited in what you can do.
>a gameplay segment where some control is taken away from you and you are limited in what you can do.
also known as a qte
As a complaint it doesn't make any sense
why does samus aran have a better story than every video game character despite talking once or twice
her story contains actually interesting events that has weight on is own without needing to be quipy and be like I HAVE A PERSONALITY talking too much while saying nothing of substance
>and be like I HAVE A PERSONALITY talking too much while saying nothing of substance
aka all of Other M
I guess they wanted to apologize for Other M
Anyone else think Raven Beak was too sexy? It took away from the whole intimidating boss thing. All I could think about while fighting him was the shape, size, smell and taste of his exotic chozo penis.
Based birb enjoyer
>bird
>belly button
I can't stop looking at this image am I gay?
I just came to this picture after not jerking off for 6 days I'm not gay but it was really fucking good
hello raven beak
don't worry
samus was thinking about it, too
What a whore
Shut up "Adam".
You fag.
>everyone calls her metroid
> I know! lets make her a metroid!
dread is trash and mercury steam should be nuked for this.
Sakamoto wrote the story bruh. Either way, it’s the best way to move forward with the series without Metroids having to be shoehorned in somehow.
>lets make her a metroid
That happened way back in 2001 with Fusion. Try to keep the bait on a realistic level.
>Samus is so... BADASS!
You should all work at Gearbox holy shit fuck you
Huh?
I just beat Dread Mode for the first time bros!!
Good work for beating Dread Mode, Anon
Dumbest shit I've heard all day.
there's acting cool, there's posing, and then there's Samus in Dread, acting completely retarded
No.
>only spoken dialogue is an alien language
that shit is cool man
Why would play this shit when the king of hollowvania genre is so much better?
>60 hours to complete
Boooooooooring
I don't like Metroidvanias, just Metroids.
Castlevania was better before they turned into Metroid games with half-baked RPG mechanics.
This. SotN is trash
I think SotN is fine but I respect your opinions based on principle.
Actually I take this back, fuck SotN for that shitty upside-down castle padding. Must have memoryholed that just because it pissed me off so much.
This is also true.
Castlevania is at its best when it's Rondo of Blood, not Symphony of the Tranime Lover.
Ironically Hollow Knight is much closer to Metroid than Castlevania
At 60 hours? I imagine it being even more padded than SotN.
I'm willing to bet that 60 hours includes the ass-blasting difficulty of beating all the Pantheons.
Lol who actually did that shit? I opted out at that point but until then I had a good time.
>Didn't even play the game he's making an opinion of
Look I like dread too, because I'm a shill for Metroidvania games, But you look like a braindead shill when you say dread is better that HW without even playing both.
I never said Hollow Knight was bad, I'm just saying I doubt I would enjoy it.
It took the worst traits of both franchises. That bug twink is slow as shit compared to Samus, and the samey environments make the complaints about Dread being nothing but hallways seem quaint.
>gay Knight
Holy fucking gay. Way to self-own, you colossal fucking retard.
60 fucking hours is about 6 times too fucking long for a Metroidvania, especially one as repetitive and dog shit as gay Knight.
These games are meant to be speedy, with fast characters, fast levels, and endless replay value. Not slow, grinding, moody slogs through a big, shitty camel fart of a fucking cave.
gay Knight is like catnip to the kinds of retarded cock-sucking queers that like their games slow and "atmospheric" instead of, you know, actually fun.
>These games are meant to be speedy, with fast characters, fast levels,
It's a fucking videogame. It can be whatever the devs wants it to be you fucking gay. Keep seething though. Silksong is going to be a massive success and will be talked about more than dread will be
You're right, little gay. The homosexual butt cum chugging fairies that made gay Knight can make the most LGBTQ+ friendly video game in history, as they already did with gay Knight. A slow, plodding, dog shit crawl through a boring world full of shit characters, shit bosses, and shit pushers.
When you and your pride posse are having gay ERP bug sex on Discord to celebrate the sequel, I'll still be laughing at you and how fucking gay your shitty game is.
truly bizarre
cope and seethe
I don't need to cope, gay. I wasn't raised to be a feminized not-man that "falls in love" with moody, atmospheric piano pride anthems, uwu chibi twink characters, and boring cartoon worlds full of nothing but rocks, dirt, and butt cum.
But I will continue to seethe until the day I die that I have to live in the same world as gay Knight. Hopefully the developers die in fear and pain.
tl;dr
Seems like you're still coping and seething
It seems like you we're hardly raised at all
>boring cartoon worlds full of nothing but rocks, dirt, and butt cum
>butt cum
Can you please elaborate?
not him but I like watching a mans cum leak out another mans hairy pooey asshole
That's gross
mmmmnmmmm ppoopy cum cum u fukkkkers
I played both! They were both great! I love video games!
HollowKnight absolute buck broke Metroid
lmao
For that to be true, Hollow Knight would have to not be boring and gay.
>80 hours of barely different builds all revolving around the retarded soul meter
I actually beat the game when it came out, and played beyond 100 hours, I also completed the DLC when that came out, KILLED ALL OF THE FUCKING BOSSES INCLUDING ABSOLUTE RADIANCE
but you know what I realized? too much of something can be bad, Hollow Knight absolutely does this, even the main campaign pads its length way beyond past the point of it still being fun, I forced myself to complete it all because my now wife kept pushing me to do it, if I play Silksong, IF IT EVEN COMES OUT THAT IS, I will probably stop playing it if as padded for length as the original game
Cringe
No. She's just cool
It definitely does feel like they've overcompensating a bit cause of Other M
I strongly believe Ravenbeak should be in the next Smash is what I would say if I wasn't so fucking tired of Smash at this point.
I think what really pissed me off about Other M was that they started with a concept I was interested in (2D Metroid on a 3D plane) and completely fucked it up.
>Go to look up Raven Beak on e621
>Can't search because site is having maintenance
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FAP TO MY BIRD HUBBY NOW?!
Use your imagination!
Make your own.
And look him up on furaffinity. The loop of Samus riding at cannon point made me cream.
Why the fuck would I watch something with a woman in it?
You need an account for FA
Not me but it's true I hate women
Just watched it
Nice
Not as much as Doom Eternal. The forced coolness bordered cringe
It came off more as cheesy/edgy 90's/00's coolness to me, which I'm all for. I haven't played the DLC thoughever so I dunno if they fucked it up.
It's Doom, retard. You may as well complain that Duke Nukem is a caricature of masculinity.
whoever wrote Doom Eternal was trying REALLY HARD to be taken seriously
If you think Doom Eternal was trying too hard, wait until you see Devil May Cry.
Literally no franchise about fighting the armies of hell hasn't been at least a little cringe. It's in the DNA, going all the way back to picrel.
You don't get it. DMC5 is not the cool-tryhard cringe. Imagine an ugly manlet trying to be cool, there's something off about it, that's Doom Eternal. DMC5 is when a chad does chad things, it's natural, it doesn't feel off.
I loved Doom Eternal cringe, it felt 80's, over the top and unapologetic, it was manly, badass and retarded for the sake of it alongside one of the best feeling shooter/platformers of gaming history
Retro Studio DEVS WISH they could develop Metroid for PC and have that much raw processing power to be creative
Doom 2016 was that. Doom Eternal took a different direction.
>DMC5 is...le cool!
Holy fucking gay.
How much tranime do you watch, you little queer?
Do you have a tranime waifu? Lol!
I know why you think Doom Eternal isn't cringe. Just read your post again, it's pure cringe, and you probably thought it was cool when you typed it.
>y-you're cringe
oh my god no fucking way
This gay actually LOVES tranime!
Hey, gay, how much tranime do you watch? Do you think a tranime character like Gatsu is a "chad" like Dante, too?
pfffffffthahahahahahahahaha
Look, I'm sorry. Just stop embarassing yourself.
You didn't answer my question, gay.
Do you masturbate to tranime characters? Do you get a raging 5" hard-on for the cartoons watched by Chinese children while they eat a breakfast of rice and fish?
Who's your waifu, tranime lover?
>Who's your waifu, tranime lover?
Hinata she got big boobi
Holy fucking gay.
What a fucking loser. Lol!
>omg DoomEternalguy is so cool
>omg Dante is such a fag
The absolute state of Ganker
One was made by yellow rice-eating monkeys who worship the moon like retards.
The other is a man. Something you will never be, tranime lover. Lol!
Chen, the Black Cat of Ill Omen...
I do not like this new schizo
The difference is in Doom Eternal they're trying too hard to be cool. The difference is the "trying too hard" part.
It’s Samus late in her career. Giant monsters shouldn’t phase her at this point.
Should have just skipped MercurySteam's cinematic shovelware and played AM2R instead
I loved AM2R.
I also loved Dread.
Didn't play Samus Returns.
I liked when Samus killed the Digger. Though I dunno why people hated this guy. It was a fun, tough boss.
He steals your shit
of course people hate him
No
I'm NEVER going to let them back down from current Samus because that's how we got Other M
>Kraid is one of the easiest bosses in 1 and super
>Samus finds him again...CHAINED
I mean
Put the suit back on
Yeah Samus' body language during Kraid is less "look how cool I look" and more "oh it's THIS clown again".
RPG elements in a side scrolling game where you get tons of weapons and explore a Castle with great music is cool, and normal people on Ganker love that shit but it's always in Metroid threads do you find a group of sub humans being eternally btfo'd by it.
I will never agree with what you say even if it would doom the entire earth.
I'm okay with it because Samus is a seasoned veteran at metroidvanias at this point in the timeline, she's had enough shit thrown her way that anything that isn't a serious threat doesn't faze her
Nah it's fine. They just need to make Other M non-canon and then there's no inconsistency in characterization.
bros wtf you guys told me demon's souls is hard this is the final boss????
that's a victory lap final boss
like Yu Yevon from FFX
You mean the worst bosses in the entire game? That kinda makes it worse.
>victory lap boss
Only cinematic experiences would embrace this concept. What, a regular videogamey boss fight is bad, so you need the game to coddle you?
Yawn.
The raven beak fight is terrible, if clearly you didn't like it this much. You should be happy to have the credits roll IMMEDIATELY after fighting him. Why do you need a victory lap? You're not explaining that.
>Only cinematic experiences
fuck off ACfag, you already had a proper final boss with False King Allant, Jecht, and Raven Beak
And clearly every single one must've been terrible, if players needed a "victory lap" so the game didn't feel too videogamey.
!!!
but you can't do that! the credits haven't even rolled yet
I-
This but unironically. Why the hell are people defending a boss that literally can't kill you?
I guess the game must be terrible if you hate actually playing it.
my favourite cinematic experience
Demon's Souls
dread is non canon fangame so it doesnt matter
Maybe it's a bit much but it's needed to clean the series of Other M's lingering taste
>game has had story since the end of 2
>"what the fuck is this story shit in my metroid?"
Why didn't these people latch on to something else?
coming up with random things for each commercial product installment, written by different people, is not a story
it's a commercial product function designed to help sell you the commercial product
a story is written all at once by one person
It's literally one dude with some kind of mental condition that causes him to unironically seethe at the mere thought of any kind of scripted sequences. I legit got him to agree with the sentiment that title screens are bad once because they "interrupt the gameplay." There are likely a couple of trolls imitating such arguments as well. Don't bother engaging with them.
>buy interactive product
>rips interactivity away so it can be a wacky marvel movie
>"wow why don't you like this, you're clearly a troll"
I disagree.
No, I like samus in dread
