No wonder I appear underpowered compared to screenshots I've seen at the same point in the game. 9 minutes ago, Interdimensional Observer said: In this case, if you're merely looking for a way out, then it's even worse. Yeah, I was just merely trying to progress. I had hoped Fusion's more linear approach would avoid Super's what the fuck moments but looks like they still persist.

Plenty of them were actually driving, so there were definitely people inside. Of course even if those cars were somehow all empty,Ā it's hard to imagine that you can toss dozens of cars around without killing somebody.

Lightcosmo Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 There a few that require it sure, but that doesnt inheretly make it bad. Its a simple skill to learn, just takes some practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightcosmo Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Hell, id argue bomb jumping is way harder than shinesparking, and not nearly as flexible. Sure, in low% runs its amazing, specially if you dont aquire the speed booster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just now, lightcosmo said: There a few that require it sure, but that doesnt inheretly make it bad. Its a simple skill to learn, just takes some practice. Some people play games intensively, others widely. Most play some of both ways, including myself. That "some" means "Will try to get every upgrade I can in a Metroid" -but if it's too much effort, I won't. As I've said before, I'm a casual 2D Metroid player. 50 tries to get a single missile pack- not something I'd do. 10 for sure,Ā maybe 20, but not many more if looks to be that tough.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armagon Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 Metroid Fusion is a good-ass game. Going in, i had heard that this game is a lot more linear than other Metroid games and the early parts of the game kinda worried me it would beĀ tooĀ linear but thankfully, the game quickly does away with that. So while it's still linear in the sense that your destination is usually marked on the map, you'll still be on your own when it comes to actually getting there. Gameplay-wise, it's basically a refined Super Metroid. And now that i've played a second Metroid game, i'm getting a newfound appreciation for one of the progenitors of the Metroidvania genre. There are a lot of good Metroidvanias out there but there aren't many that have that sense of pureness that 2D Metroid has. I'd say the Blaster Master Zero games come close but even they have their own little quirks that set it apart from Metroid. My biggest problems with Metroid Fusion lie in the fact that bosses can essentially kill you after you've killed them. A few times, i killed a boss only to be killed by the X-Parasite that emerged from it and it's because of that that i'm really grateful for restore points. This game also does suffer from "what do i do moments" that affected Super Metroid but nowhere near to the same extent. I alsoĀ kindaĀ wish the SA-X was more prominent. Don't get me wrong, it's scary as fuck when it's chasing you but it only chases you for real like once. I never got the sense that it was hunting me down because of how rarely it showed up and most of it's appearances are a non-issue. All that said, these issues don't really impact the game too much, as Metroid Fusion is a fantastic game and an overall improvement from the already fantastic Super Metroid. 9/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I value what little sleep I can get, so the sooner Germany is kicked out of that tournament, the better. That's literally all I care about. Please stop these STUPID car horn concerts and yelling like lunatics until late into the night. I fucking despise it. No one laughed harder than I did when Germany got kicked out in the prelims during the last world cup... I think three years ago now? Not sure anymore, but I remember laughing. Hard. Schadenfreude feels good. Anyway, looks like I missed quite a bit. Hope you guys had a good time. Good morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
