As soon as I saw the motorcycle, I was immediately out. This is not Metroid.
You just know the last boss or one of its forms is going to be riding either a bigger motorcycle or a car. And you’re going to have to destroy all the wheels in order to get it to stop.
Nintendo absolutely could not control themselves. There are probably multiple motorcycle bossfights. At least one is definitely in the massive empty desert area.
Pretty sure Nintendo is the definitive voice on what Metroid is, so I’ll take their word and not yours. They are trying something new, something every Metroid has done. I’ll wait until I e played the game before I judge it’s merits
Nintendo has been wrong before. Metroid Other M and Federation Force.
Never said they haven’t, I said I’d trust them and judge for myself, not some edgelord mad because of element he dislikes. Without even actually seeing it mind you.
I did see it. It was the entire highlight of the trailer. I did not like it.
I do not have to play the game in order to give my opinion on what I have seen. If you take a crap on my dinner plate, I do not have to eat it to make sure it is crap first. I can see it, and I do not like it. It is an element that was completely unnecessary, and continues to make it very easy for me to avoid purchasing products that fund a vexatious litigant with a video game side business.
Your loss. It’s was like 20 seconds. Awful quick to make up your mind, but that’s the world these days. We’re all experts after a minute of research.
Nintendo hasn’t made a Metroid game in decades. Retro Studios made this.
With Nintendo. But okay.
Nintendo published this game.
It’s Nintendo property and they very much had a say in how it gets developed. Nintendo is not just a publisher.
There’s a motorcycle in BotW and people love that game lol. What a weird take
You mean the DLC-exclusive motorcycle in BotW, that released 9 months after the actual game, that you only unlock after completing all major dungeons, do a long quest chain, and then an additional dungeon plus a boss fight, that drains materials while you use it?
You are comparing that DLC Bonus to an (appearent) major game design mechanic showcased in this Metroid Reveal Trailer?
Be real dude.
Not me, lol.
Just because people like something doesn’t mean its good. Fortnite, League of Legends, the Disney Star Wars Sequel trilogy, etc.
