Only a couple more weeks until Prime 4!

Dude! I know. I’m so excited. I absolutely love the franchise. Metroid Dread was also an absolute banger.

I had so much fun with dread earlier this year. It motivated me to buy and mod an original GBA so I could finally beat the copy of Fusion I’ve had since I was a kid. That really got the ball rolling on me finishing as many Metroids as I can ahead of Prime 4. I think I’ve finished 4-5 now. Still haven’t done Super Metroid, which everyone tells me is the best, but I’m a snob and I want to get a Super Nintendo controller to play it with.

BazaarMonk,
@BazaarMonk@lemmy.world avatar

Nice! Yeah, I’ve played all the Metroids except for Other M. You will not be disappointed with Super Metroid.

NOT_RICK,
@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

Not surprised you skipped other M. I haven’t heard a single good thing about that one

BazaarMonk,
@BazaarMonk@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah same here.

I’ll pop in and say the mechanics of pointing the wiimote at the screen from using it as a horizontal controller in order to go into a first person mode was kina fun. It was also the (first?) Metroid game to use the parrying system that was also used in Dread, which is super satisfying. It also had a boss fight that was a near direct reference to one of the Alien movies, which was original inspiration for Metroid. But the story sucked, and I think we have all rightfully retconned it, as Samus is an awesome bounty hunter, not a lame little baby.

SabinStargem,

You might want to try AM2R if you haven’t already. It is basically Metroid 2, but fully remade to be like Zero Mission mixed with Prime scanner lore.

I’ve heard of that, but never played it. I did play the remake Samus Returns and really enjoyed the simplistic story of just hunting down Metroids.

The detail in such a small form factor boggles my mind. Well done!

Thank you! I’m happy to hear that. I love working on the little details.

B0NK3RS, do games w One hour into Gears 5 and I feel its a lot better than 4
@B0NK3RS@lemmy.world avatar

I got bored of the semi open-world part but it was still much better than Gears 4.

I think I’m just one chapter before the open world section. It’s gonna make more sense in a few hours why it’s boring to me

Besides all the already mentionend games: Shadow Complex (2009) was a good game back then. Nothing special without any real story. But it was fun to play

La-Mulana was great. Maybe not for everyone. It’s loaded with puzzles.

sleepmode,

That’s a gentle way to put it 😆. But I agree it’s so great. Need to get back into it at some point.

ExtraMedicated,

Yeah… It’s pretty brutal. I needed to consult a walkthrough even for subsequent playthroughs.

Ori. Both of them.

They are works of high art.

r/place made me hate Osu! players.

fushuan,

Because they wanted to have their circle? It was small compared to other ugly things c’mon.

Linktank,

Because they were clearly using bots to do it.

Cybersteel,
@Cybersteel@lemmy.world avatar

It’s not as if someone made an LLM out of an Osu bot or anything.

colderr,

Well, there was a big fight between BTMC and xQc. It was a massive event (relatively speaking), so that’s why everything happened so quickly and immediately always. But I wouldn’t be surprised if some people used bots to help out, but I know that most were real people who just sat there and waited for another pixel.

fushuan,

They were a pretty active community, and the first to develop the browser extension that helped you colour each pixel correctly. Then everyone used it. Idk, they were heavily attacked from all fronts because weeb. I don’t think they were botting. There were plenty way more complex projects that finished way too fast for them not to be botted for you to hate the OSU! community that much.

LaLuzDelSol,

Was it though??

tgirlschierke, do games w What is your favorite Metroidvania?

Record of Lodoss War: Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth is a fantastic experience.

ICCrawler,

Wut.

Looked this up. Can’t believe Record of Lodoss War got a game in 2021. I remember watching the 1990 anime on Toonami’s online-only list of anime at the time, along with Harlock Saga. Both old school AF.

YiddishMcSquidish,

I remember playing the Dreamcast Diablo style game my college roommate had!

tgirlschierke,

Funnily enough, I had the opposite experience. Was shocking to me to find out that the lore wasn’t originally from Wonder Labyrinth.

@Phelpssan@lemmy.world avatar

All three metroidvania games from that developer are great. The other two are Touhou Luna Nights and Blade Chimera.

Lots of folks talking about the diagram. And for good reason. It’s a good diagram full of good games.

But I want to draw folks attention to the linked article. It’s well written and I enjoyed it.

Give me more games like Animal Well, please.
