Zero Mission’s a game I feel conflicted on because while it’s the best way to play the original Metroid story by and large, it has one of my least favorite control physics on Samus in the entire series, where she’s simultaneously too twitchy and too heavy for me personally that makes me not want to go back to it very often. That being said, it’s an excellent first timer experience for Metroid thanks to the challenge being scaled back and early exploration being well guided by the Chozo statues. Especially for the format it was designed for, it’s an elegant solution that makes ZM great for pick up and play sessions.

Commander Keene posted:Also not really a huge fan of the boss, TBH, for mainly the same reasons Nat stated. Knowing that the boss is vulnerable on a timer is one thing, being able to keep track of that while the boss is careening around the room and shooting lightning at you is a different story. I also beat it mostly by luck. IMO the whole suitless section sucks, then you're back in the Power Suit with all your missing upgrades and the game is good again. Honestly looking back, I think boss fights are Zero Mission’s worst aspect by a mile, they’re either too easy or frustrating or both.
