If it's not broken why fix it? Metroid has always been about fear of the unknown, why would Samus be running up to things and using cinematic 'press X to awesome' moves on them when she has always handled them with her arm cannon in the past?

Changes are fine but they should make logical sense within the franchise.

DLC jewery aside, this game looks ugly and boring.

You keep posting that as if irs bad but the Melee attack just adds a new option to the combat and you can still just blast away at the enemy like you could in the previous games. The precise aiming is also am undeniable improvement

And it clearly shows how the game is being balanced around the melee mechanic being required based off of the enemies telegraphing their moves by glowing a bright color.

This argument of ignoring it doesn't work when it's a fundamental game mechanic, I could play Mario without jumping but I wouldn't get very far or have a very good time now would I?

What the actual fuck

Imaginé if they came up with the paid hard mode for Trilogy, back when Nintendo was the bastion of anti DLC.

They threw the frog into the boiling water and it still didn't jump out.

>>386274127
Maybe because one is a great, complete, hard worked game and the other is a late to the party remake with Jew politics behind it.

I don't see the problem. It gives you a powerful solution for dealing with enemies that try getting under your skin, but having to wait around for them to attack you slows you down, and as we are all aware, the Metroid series is partly responsible for the current speedrunning phenomenon by actually incentivizing beating the game fast.

>>386274537
Zero Mission is a masterpiece though, I think we all know Samus Returns won't reach the same level as quality that Zero Mission did.

The first big red flag is the art direction.

>>386274564
Cinematics are okay for a few things;

>First time meeting a specific type of boss (such as the first Gamma, first Zeta, and the final boss)
>Using transitions between zones, such as the teleporter (that needs to be shortened though, way too long) and going through doors.
>Showing off a new powerup for a short few seconds, like in the Prime games

Anything more would be intrusive and unwanted. Little introductions and having Samus move a little differently here and there is fine.

>>386274792
>It gives you a powerful solution for dealing with enemies that try getting under your skin,
The games already have a problem with becoming too easy around the late game, and this ability so far affects every single enemy in the game, including bosses, so it's only gonna exasperate the problem.

>>386270930
The definition of nintenbro.

>>386274851
Yeah because Zero Mission is 13 years old and you've played it, no one but Nintendo has played Samus Returns

It kinda seems like the artists feel like they're being shackled by the rather barren look of SR-388 in its past depictions, when the easy solution would just be to make it look *different* and more fancy, and not just a bunch of plain rocks and dust.

Then again, they might do just that with other areas in the game.

>>386274914
That webm clearly shows that they are integrating cinematic melee attacks into the core gameplay, I don't see how that fits in a Metroid game which have usually given you complete control of Samus for 95% of the game.

When you press the counter button, control is stripped away from the player in favor of style over substance sequences that play out.

I don't get it is the complaint that it's slightly harder? Or that theres a new mechanic?

Not ACfag or Barneyfag or any other boogeyman but I think AM2R had good art direction to it, the art style they've chosen for SR does seem rather bland and lifeless. Hopefully it's just because we haven't seen much.

>>386270930
So what you're are saying is that the game has a Normal and Hard mode while an "extra" difficulty is locked behind a McDonald's toy? So why is /v/ bitching?

>>386277571
Because there's a difficulty mode, which were previously unlocked by beating the game, being gated behind limited quantity physical DLC.

>>386273950
There's no reason not to. Even if AM2R is better (not saying it is since I haven't played Samus Returns yet, though that melee counter is really fucking concerning to me), this does things differently so they'd both be worth experiencing.

They'd be too expensive otherwise.

>>386272415
Thing is you act like is a bad thing, if anything the melee mechanic adds a new layer of interactivity vs the enemies, instead of them being a static moving sprite that shoots at you from time to time.

>>386279019
The solution to something being too expensive is to lower the price, not to make it mandatory to unlock features that were in the regular game.

>>386278773
I mean, that's okay I guess, but would still like to see a Side scrolling-ish style one

>buying this piece of shit
How desperate can you get? The game looks like absolute garbage, look past the fucking title and see the obvious truth.

>>386279589
Nintendo has made it so the series has been dormant since Other M, I shouldn't have to be picky about the titles they release for the series when they release them as infrequently as they do.

Every Metroid fan has wanted the series to continue to the story after Fusion left on a cliffhanger, if Nintendo don't make a product I don't want to buy I'm not going to. When it comes to Metroid I want Dread and so do many others, pretty simple.

>>386279778
Makes sense I guess, I don't want to sound like an ass, but Nintendo fans pre-Game Cube era are some of the most autistic kids you could ever meet on the Internet, talking all day about how Mario 64 is the best Mario ever, I started with the N64 and I really can't stand them sometimes.

It's very likely those IPs would not have received the green light to be developed on any other platform, exactly because the 3DS is a cheap piece of shit.
