What we know so far:

>Metroid Prime 4 will be a first-person adventure with a focus on isolation and exploration
>not developed by Retro Studios
>handled by a new team in Japan with series producer Kensuke Tanabe running the show
>game will not involve Phazon or Dark Samus
>plot will most likely focus on Sylux, following up on the cliffhangers at the ends of Prime 3 and Federation Force
>game will focus on only one planet
>Tanabe wanted to explore a timeline mechanic similar to the parallel dimension mechanic in Prime 2: Echoes

What are your hopes, fears, and desires for Prime 4?
>>
I'd love them to go full Flash with time travel, why not mechanics where if you do things in the past, it creates differences in the future and so you can access new areas. Could be fun if it doesn't involve too much backtracking.
>>
>>382026620
Me again, imagine if we could relive somes major events of Metroid but in the Metroid Prime engine... like visiting Tourian and kill Mother Brain in some timetravel/flashbacks.

As long as there's different environments.

Fuck off, retard.

Titanfall 2 already did this really well.

>>382027452
Well designed backtracking as in Super and Prime 1 is excellent
>>
I really hope they pull off Sylux'es character, they've been building it up too long for them to just fumble it.

Metroid Prime 4?
More like Metroid Past It's Prime 4 fuck sake
>>
>>382026394
What I want out of a Metroid Prime game is ultimately the feeling I got playing Prime 1 and somewhat playing Prime 2 when they came out and I was 13.

A sense of isolation, being surrounded by large, erie environments full of scannable lore, and the typical 0 to hero Metroid style powerup game.

If they simply remade Metroid Prime 1 I'm sure it wouldn't be enough to compete with modern games, but whatever they do I hope it recreates those feelings from the first two, which themselves were reflections of the original NES/SNES games translated to 3D.

I will legitimately but a switch if this ends up being good. Metroid Prime was one of the first games I bought with my own cash and it was an amazing game
>>
>>382028081
What's wrong with Tanabe? He's headed every Metroid Prime game to date.
>>
It'll be open world. Mark my words.
>>
>>382028419
Metriod Prime was open world too sort of
>>
>>382028483

It was a Metroidvania, which is distinctly different.
>>
Reminder that Metroid Prime 1 was also developed by a completely new studio.

there goes a perfect mix bruh

Sounds fucking great. I was a bit worried they would build off of Metroid Prime 3 instead of the first two
>>
>>382027142
I said "not too much" backtracking. I know that it's part of the Metroid concept, learn to read before calling me a retard, r-retard !

Fuck off newfag

>>382026394
I fear it will focus on Sylux, other "bounty hunters" and have federation force involved.

>>
>>382028341
He's headed several bad games as of late, and a JP studio means things will be even more under his control than before due to JP development culture.

short, say goodbye to anything distinctly Western, like unique SP designs.
>>
>>382026394
I hope there's two campaigns; one for Samus and one for Sylux. It'd be such a waste to not be able to play as Sylux again, especially when they could flesh out it's abilities more.

Also hoping Sylux turns out to be female.
>>

Prime 2 and 3 were developed by Retro and they were shit too

Prime 2 was fucking great and a worthy sequel

none of the original devs work at Retro anymore anyway
>>
>>382029969
I don't think that Retro Studios can do a second time what they did with Prime 1. Prime 2 and 3 have qualities but they are nowhere as good as the first one so whatever ?

I think that a japanese team could do a great job with the game... If it was a western team I would anxious about it.
>>
>hopes
That this is only the start of a new era of Metroid. I don't think we'd neccesarily need Prime 5 and Prime 6, but maybe a continuation of Fusion. I'd also love if we get both 3D and 2D Metroids.
>fears
That the new team can not hold a candle to the art direction Retro Studios had. They don't need to top Retro, but they should be at least 90% there, otherwise I might be dissappointed.
>desires
From the few snippets of information, it seems Prime 4 will be exactly what I want.
Isolation? FUCK YEAH.
Sylux? FUCK YEAH.
One planet? FUCK YEAH.

I hope she's female too, but I'm hoping she's black.

>Inb4 WE WUZ KANGZ

No, I'm talking about an attractive black female and Japan knows how to make them. If it was a western afro sheboon, then I wouldn't like it.

Having another white girl in a suit is redundant and a male would just be uninteresting.
>>
If this game is a disappointment, the Switch will have been for naught.
