Yeah that does not bother me at all. That's how it was done in Zero Mission.

I don't really care about sequence breaking stuff, and I was fine in other Metroids going down the primary path.

poo poo, I did not want to return to the thread, but I am lost. Early stuff Just beat Corpius and got the Invisibility power, but I can't figure out where to go. I don't have any ways back into the old EMMI zone, and the only areas I can go to now are full of heat zones I can't survive in.

ate poo poo on live tv posted:Ok seriously. The first EMMI zone you have to sit on a plate and raise the water to slide through and continue. The EMMI is literally just there so that you have to pass through that area in a rush like 4-5 times before you figure out that you can interact with that glowing place. Lame as hell. I snuck by it, and got it super quick, as I noticed the floor was sinking. You can always lure the EMMI into different areas, to take pressure off you.

ate poo poo on live tv posted:im not worried about the pressure as far as the game goes, its just a nuisance. let me casually explore, not execute qtes. You don't have to do the QTE if you don't get caught. Also you will be able to destroy them eventually.

Blaziken386 posted:has anyone figured out the timing for the EMMI counters? like, is there a specific tell I'm not seeing? The timing depends on the animation used when it catches you, you pretty much have to memorize the timing of the two counter openings and hope you pressed the button right as it was going to flash. If your in water it’s a bit easier as it’s slowed. But more or less don’t rely on it, don’t get caught if you can.

ate poo poo on live tv posted:also wtf is with adam? its like the creepy creator of samus' self-insert who really cant stand that fans thought of samus as a lone strong female protagonist who could deal with anything on her own, and just has to create weird Kinbaku-bi and restriction scenarios. He even looks directly into the camera and says even at full power [Samus] cannot withstand the EMMIs. How did he look into the camera when he has no eyes. Also no clue what Kinabaku bi is.

Bruceski posted:I'm getting stuck on a boss (mini-boss? There's a fuzzy line between the two but this was behind an eye door) well into the game, 6th EMMIs area. It’s easier to avoid if your not trying to free aim at the same time. Heavily just recommend jump and shoot plus missiles on it while largely ignoring free sim.

Don’t know what issues you are having with ADAM. He seems fine other then not having much faith in you.

Despite how dangerous the EMMI are to Samus, I don't think they would be a match for something like Kraid or Ridley. The reasons the EMMI are threatening is that they are bigger and stronger then Samus while being immune to her weapons. Kraid and Ridley are not immune to her weapons, but are bigger and stronger. Kraid could probbably just grab an EMMI and I don't think it could do anything to him while he crushed it.

Augus posted:I think my biggest complaint would be that most of the music, besides the excellent EMMI themes, is merely good. It’s pretty effective ambience but not super memorable. I thought there would be one more area, cause there is a large chunk of open space in the global map above Cataris I thought would contain an area.

Bruceski posted:Is there some nameplate I'm missing? Other than old faves I've just been calling them "that guy with the tentacles" and "that other guy with the tentacles" and such. Then someone says they beat Weeblewortz and everyone seems to know who that is. The event screen says the name and if you scroll over the boss room on the map it says their name.

ate poo poo on live tv posted:Phantoon is the hardest boss in SM. Congrats on getting the Gravity suit, you can now collect something like 80% of the games items. That's not true Ridley is the hardest boss. Phantoon is pretty drat easy. Speaking of Ridley, I want another fight with him in a Dread like game. Him not being here feels off. Maybe give Dread an update that gives a new area in that large empty space on the global map with a Ridley fight.

Bruceski posted:Game beaten, 100%, 10:21. Fun game but oof that final boss. Phase 2 feels too long. From what I can tell, the X that took control of Raven Beak was the one that took the body of Z-57. After it sunk into the lava it probably found Kraid and took over him as well, as it has both Kraid's traits and Z-57's traits. Then it mutated into an ungodly abomination of all three with Raven Beak being the smallest just being a head in the mouth.

On hints for future games. Right before you fight the Golden Elite Chozo. You see some Chozo ships. After the fight with Raven Beak, you go to the same area and the ships are gone.

AtomikKrab posted:He was going to take the metroid dna from her corpse and make more metroids, but when she started to evolve, he got a dose of the old hubris and was like "Why just metroids when I could have my own army of SAMUSes?" And again if he had not hubris'd himself on not fixing his helmet he would have won in the end since he was smart enough to make his suit metroid energy drain and presumably X proof. He seems to have it doubled it up. He set up the EMMI as obstacles to overcome so she would awaken Metroid powers. However if they killed her, they would have just stolen the Metroid DNA and he would have gone with his original plan.

AtomikKrab posted:Nah We actually have his final thoughts. It was "Power requires sacrifice!" he says that as the giant X monster. Amppelix posted:raven beak's plan was literally to lure samus to the planet and instantly kill her once she arrives. and he also literally succeeded at that but then got undone by his own hubris at the last second as he saw that samus had the capability to become a metroid and he devised this whole scheme where oops samus turns into the most powerful being in the galaxy and kills him. didn't see that one coming. He still seemed sure he could win until the Parasite got him.

MechaX posted:Even if he beat Metroid Trigger Samus, what the gently caress would even be his plan at that point? ADAM probably wouldn’t even have let him on the ship, his planet was exploding with all of his research, and the X infesting the planet now was kind of his fault. But he was ready to go for Round 3 anyway He may know the location of some extra Chozo ships to escape with, all he would have to do is bring Samus' corpse with him and he could still win. Though the closest ones were gone at that point.

CandyCrazy posted:Metroid powers would make for a pretty natural extension of how the Counter mechanic currently works. A successful counter already primes you to instantly kill an enemy for extra resources, so all that needs to be done changing the counter to a grab that automatically kills and absorbs the enemy. I could see it being something like absorbing the enemies energy with Metroid powers, fuels the Metroid Suit and the Hyper Beam to unleash all the energy she has absorbed so far.

Honestly while I love Ridley fights, I feel him being in Dread would have overshadowed Raven Beak.

Someone in the comments on that video points out that the bridge and void below it where Samus first fights Raven Beak is flooded when you activate the water systems and come back.
