Why would you rename it to the newer thing that took inspiration from the older thing? They're called 2D platformers anyways not whatever meme name morons comes up with.
Thanks to Hollow Knights 40+ hour play time. I never want to ever go back and play it again.
But Metroid. I go back to Super, Zero Mission, Fusion, and the Prime games ever year.
Except it's literally nothing to do with Nintendo. I do the same with Castlevania. Those are short too.
Short. Sweet. Concise. Hollow Knight on the other hand. The map is fricking huge and most of it has nothing in it.
Hollow knight isn't a bad game by any means. But I'm not going back to it.
Hollow Knight was bought the most on the tendie machine. So it makes no sense. HK fans just want to feel superior and claim HK is the best metroidvania to ever exist.
No its just seething snoys traumatised by how amazing Metroid Dread is. They can't stomach Nintendo fans getting yet another superb 1st party game.
>n-no! I need to prove a better game exists!!!
Thats how mentally ill OP is. I've been laughing like frick all weekend XDD
Why the frick would it matter to a Snoy if a multiplatform game was better than a nintendo game? Pull your head out of your ass.

That sounds like someone else is at play.
Almost like Snoys were never actually the demographic you all actually hate but the real demographic manages to deceive you into thinking everything they did was Snoy's doing.
It's as if Ganker forgot shitposting has no allegiance.
Spoken like a true HK frickboi. Divert all eyes from them popping into Metroidvania threads to someone else.
They can't possibly be just plain buttholes.
How the frick do you make an 8 hour metroidvania game? Symphony of the Night was at least 20 hours and that was like 25 years ago. There are gameboy games longer than that.
Everyone in this thread is a drooling moron. The reason for this fabricated rivalry is to bait and anger Nintendo fanboys. Anyone who can't see that is legitimately borderline moronic. The thing is though that there are so many shitposters trying to stir up shit that actual discussion gets brought up. Back when HK released you had so many people calling it genre defining. A bunch of e-celebs saying things like they felt like they should have payed more for it because it had so much content packed into a $15 game and that they don't know how other games in the same genre would ever be able to compete again. HK got it's deserved praise. Didn't it win best indie or something along those lines? It was extremely clear that it wasn't just some industry darling either. It was a fan favorite for a lot of people. Now that is being used to bait the toddlers. It seems to have been working too because they can't really refute that it is a good game without blatantly lying. For every 5 bait posts there is 1 angry console war loyalist losing his shit. They are the same people getting mad that people emulate Nintendo games. It is absolutely hilarious to watch.

Ok, anon. What is the name of your YT channel?
GameGrumps?
I have a question to everybody that played Metroid Dread:
does it offer anything in terms of design, gameplay or new ideas that I die Metroidvania games do not? And is there anything in Dread that indie Metroidvanias can not possibly match up to?
Well New to the metroid series as your progress through the game your actions shift and frick up prior areas you have already been to. collapsing portions of rooms. Setting prior areas on fire or freezing them. Lifting specialized tunnels after defeating the Emmi's. Getting halfway through the game and letting something escape confinement.
This isn't new to the metroidvania genre though.
But you don't need a game to reinvent the wheel every iteration. you just need it to be good.
Why would you rename it to the newer thing that took inspiration from the older thing? They're called 2D platformers anyways not whatever meme name morons comes up with.
you could have a nice day for shilling your indie trash

hollow knight looks better than dread, which looks like a shitty mobile game

This is some pathetic nintendie cope

You know Hollow Knight is on Switch right?
you can't breathe sure.
based false flagger
Who's false flagging? I'm not telling you that everyone doesn't replay Hollow knight. Just that I don't.
They're trying their hardest to make it look like tendies hate hollow knight on principle

>It's Snoy's guys.
Please stop. You have to realize it's not always Snoys. It's just HK fans. There can be other Cancerous fanbases.

How clueless are you? It's snoys falseflagging.
Why exactly?
HK hasn't exactly brought anything new to the table or inspired games in the series.
metroid dread is free though
Seething snoy.
Best version of Hollow Knight confirmed to be on Switch. We just keep winning lads.
Why do you keep copy-pasting the same thing over and over again?

>sotn is 20 hours
You've got to be joking.
>There are gameboy games longer than that
Only Link's Awakening comes to mind, but then that's been called a 5 hour game so I don't know.
Both are side scrolling platformers. Metroid is not a genre.
Metroid is not a genre. HK is not a genre. Just call them 2D platformers and replay Hollow Knight again for the fifth time.
>hollowvania
have a nice day underage
A daily reminder that Dread came out before Silksong.
>implying silk song will ever come out
the cope is unreal
It'll come out after world peace is achieved.
a bit overoptimistic if you ask me
It's really fricking sad how bad this schizo is trying to force this rivalry between two groups of fans that could give a frick less.
Why do I have a feeling that Hollow Knight shills don't actually play Metroidvania games?
They are kinda like Dark Souls 3 fanboys. hey played DS3, Bloodborne... and nothing.

It should be renamed to pitroid since Pitfall II is the real daddy of the genre.
>Pitfall II
Pretty sure that Tutankham and Montezuma's Revenge both predate that.
