fuck off I'm buying it

It's time of Metroid to have a "Dark Souls" inspired game!

Or you could play AM2R for free.

Or you could play both. They look like they're plenty different from each other either way.

Buying it day fucking one. Don't give a fuck.

If I like the game I'll buy 2, faggot

>>386350941
AM2R is a harder game and a better experience IMO this new one looks like chopped dog dicks in a bag.

>>386351271
Is Samus Returns that easy?
I wouldn't call AM2R hard.

>>386353293
Yeah you can see it in parts of Nintendos Metroid fights that killing the Metroids is much faster than killing the Metroids in AM2R where if you're not careful you'll die really fast.

>>386349914
Fuck you. I've been waiting seven years for this franchise to get back on track, and this looks to be a proper return to form.

>killed 3D Castlevania

I won't buy it because it should've been on Switch AND 3DS.

>>386349914
>mercury steam,known for destroying the castlvania franchise
Bullshit, Konami did that
Mercury Steam was hired to make a competent 3D Action Castlevania and that's exactly what they did.
You can't tell me any of the N64 or PS2 Castlevanias were better than LoS.

I'm pirating ;-)

>>386349914
I'm buying it day one with both amiibo and there's nothing you can do to stop me.

>>386351271

This makes it better?

>>386351271
AM2R may very well end up being the better game. But that doesn't mean Samus Returns will be bad.
I won't give up on the game before I've tried it.

>>386349914

Metroid fans are a vocal minority. The games never sell that well and this will be no different; especially since the 3DS is pirate central.

When I see a new Metroid game I don't expect to see cinematic 'press X to awesome' that is on no cool down and the game seems to be balanced around it.

Metroid has always been about keeping your distance from alien life, not running up to them so the developers can shove a cinematic down my throat.

No.... No.... that wasn't what happened.

Mercury Steam was making a shameless God of War clone, realized it wouldn't sell, so they asked Konami if they could brand it as a Castlevania game. They used the "reboot" plug to excuse themselves from series continuity.

It was going to flop no matter what. Metroid is fucking dead and has been for years.

you don't run up to it. it's a defense mechanism against things charging at you.

Where does that Webm show that, please pinpoint the exact moment, I'm seeing Samus go up to an enemy and wait to parry them when they attack her.

>>386360482
You know there's a difference between being too emotionally weak and being too combat strong. Though in that video in question it's not that she's too strong, it's just a really weak boss.

More like Konami chose their prototype as the next installment. The point still stands.
GoW clone? Sure, but it's a good one.

Platinum makes shameless DMC clones since ever and they're still good.

>>386357112
Here's a neat suggestion: Shoot them before they attack instead of standing around waiting for them to notice you.

And if anyone's going to criticize the map, that area looks just like part of the game it's reimagining.

>>386360942
>essential stuff

Please kill yourself.

>>386360837
in every single one of those instances the monster initiated the contact.

Yes, I agree that it feels a little silly and maybe not every monster needs a parryable attack. But you're still misrepresenting the mechanic. And the only reason you'd do that is:

1. you're a paid sony shill
2. you're a bitter metroid fan that is sobbing uncontrollably that they aren't rehashing old metroid games

either of those cases are toxic to the metroid fanbase so please leave.

>>386360942
>essential
Yeah, essential if you fucking suck at Metroid and need your hand held.

>>386361038
Wow, I'm glad that boss is as weak as it was in AM2R AND the original Metroid 2. Thanks anon, you showed that it is a faithful remake after all.

>waaah, the game is too easy, it should be like Dark Souls!
Frankly, the Metroid games have never been difficult to begin with, so who even gives a fuck if the melee counter makes it easier? Intense challenge has never been a focus of the series, so this is a non-issue.

But no, we can't just be happy that seven years after the utter shitshow that was Other M, finally a new real Metroid game is coming out. Nope, joy is for fags, hardcore gamers MUST find something to bitch about no matter what.

Again, Jack Thompson was right.

>>386361364
You have no proof of this, EVERY trailer shown it's been "stop, and wait to parry", not rushing up to an enemy and stunning them.

I know enough to know that cinematic garbage doesn't belong in the series, when the game strips control away from the player in a flash of style over substance something is very wrong. Take Super Metroid for example where the player as complete control over Samus for the entirety of the game except for a few brief seconds during the Mother Brain fight at the end.

>>386349914
Correction, buy the game and don't buy amiibo, then send a very strongly worded letter about upset you are with the inclusion of amiibo.

>>386361369
I've pirated every single 2D Metroid since the NES game and beat it in a couple of hours. Don't see why I'd stop now regardless of people begging me to buy or not buy the game.

>>386362019
Yet again, the enemy is pursuing Samus and attacking, you are suggesting she is literally walking up to the enemy, smacking it, and then stunning them.

You have NO argument for your retarded claim.

>>386361936
I was not the one saying what Metroid is about. But if anything it's a cinematic experience since 3, just look at the bosses (the last one in particular).

great! you can parry while running
but the difference is that she didn't run up and smack an unsuspecting enemy. it was a dude that was about to attack

>>386362025
The Prime series has several moments in boss fights where you get reset to a certain point after a post-attack cinematic. Earliest one I can think of is bombing Flaahgra.

What are you trying to argue anymore. Just stop, you've already lost your asinine point that you're trying to make.

It doesn't matter if the enemy pursing you. You can parry anything too easily by just running up if you want too. That's literally what I'm trying to say.

I don't particularly care what children like, I played both Zero Mission and Fusion at a young age and enjoyed them both immensely. There's really no reason for them to not be using sprites when it's been tradition for the series.
