Chykka fight is cool as fuck.
Apparently it's one of the largest enemies ever in the Metroid universe.
>>322186501
I like how the post-battle scan assures you multiple times that it is actually dead.
Fun fact: Gandrayda's theme from Prime 3 remixes the Chykka battle theme
I hope this is the year for Metroid 5

>tfw chykka was the biggest boss in MP2
>>322186501
What the hell, I beat echoes and I have no memory of this boss.
The only thing I remember is beating the last two bosses to show my friend zero suit sambus.
>>322189970
oh it is baby.
2016 is a good year for metroid.

Wasn't Quadraxis officially bigger?
>>322192717
someone post the image
>>322187728
Yeah, it just doesn't look that big because the room you fight it in is really fucking huge
>>322192795
I'll be interested to see this. I remember Chykka but I didnt know it was was bigger than Quadraxis or even Emperor Ing
>>322193110
It's hard to imagine at first.(I still can't quite accept it)
But if you think about it, it has to do with the relation of the distance Chykka is away from Samus, to how much screen it should fill, to how far it needs to move.
When you start considering all the factor, then it makes sense that it's so big. Because it's flying at a distance. In order to compensate for visibility, they scaled it larger, and then scaled the room larger to trick the eye into thinking it isn't quite as big as it actually is.

>>322193110
I searched for it, but this is the only one I could find of it. I'm sure a larger size exists.
>>322193792
Oh nevermind, that was the right image size.
It still blows my mind how big they were. I'd love to see an aerial view during the boss fight to put it in perspective.
>>322193792
Holy shit that's cool.
Really weird but cool. Im have desires to play the trilogy over again. I just love it so much.
>>322193304
I forgot this was a thing? Who did the deleter end up being?
>>322192367
I still think the hate for this is overblown.
I mean, it doesn't look great or anything but it might be fun.

>"Bioscan complete. Target Chykka has been terminated. Lifesigns are at flatline. No regenerative ability in effect. No evidence of symbiotic corpse possession. Resurrection does not appear likely."
>>322193792
That one's outdated and inaccurate, this is an updated version.
>tfw still never beat Prime 2
>>322194357
rekt
Welp, here comes Metroid's 30th
>>322194352
The hate isn't overblown. It's just appears that way, because it's a large collect of dislikes.
If one person says, "I dislike what I'm seeing", then you wouldn't say it's overblown. But because it's 82,000 people saying "I dislike what I'm seeing", then you feel the weight of the overwhelming collective. So it feels stronger than what it actually is.
Why they expected Metroid fans to respond positively to something that is completely unlike Metroid, after the disappointing release of Other M in 2010, is absolutely insane. From both a creative and business perspective. They should have just said it's a brand new game by the makers of Metroid.

>I forgot this was a thing? Who did the deleter end up being?
I think it was the dead guy in the lab that got killed by MB
>>322194869
I think it becomes overblown the moment people start calling for its cancellation.

You mean how anyone can start a random petition? And exploit the emotional climate to get a relatively minuscule amount of upset fans to sign?
