Topic: Metroid Prime 1 Remastered

Sorry fir venting. But when half planet tellin me its the best game probably ever no matter the genre straight 10 sn being naive instanly go buy MOR+Dread too (I mean best games ever so no risk right)

And then it strikes ma that this is average 7/10

Im
A victim of old fanboys propaganda. Games good ok but not a 10 for every1 just aveage+nostalgia

But maybe im wrong controls are top tier just have badsettings give that boss 2 more tries. If failed ill restart on easier mode since Im not far in the game anyway. I guess it bosses will b bi easier too. They say replay value high so easy mode seems like good pick i can go harder later its my 1st m game

Ok got the controls down bea that flaaghra, got to next section.
But honestly I can't see the hype all people see.

Just an action shooting, some platforming, cool bosses true that but enemies are boring and theses poor variety of them (maybe just yet?)

Also, maps seems kinda the same corridors woth some exeptions like morph ball here and there but 10/10? The lore of the space with no dialogues/characters at all just respawning crabs is all I see.

This is not the best games on earth I can tell you even before halfway through (no hate)

Can't believe Rare did that. Look at the creatuvity in Tropical Freeze level design / enemies and variety of everything and gameplay 100x more addictive. Thats closer to 10 than MP:R in a long shot.

Music is great in M but in DKFFT its like a Mozart compared to that. I mean every single aspect is average in metroid 10 years agoI;d rate it 8

edit: bosses seem like are waiting for their invulnerability ability to end so you have .1 second to do damage if the hitboxes actually line up with the gross controls. literally garbage tier development

You've played Dread and you're making these complaints? That's pretty much Metroid in general. The only difference between the 2D games and Prime is that Prime can't really replicate the faster pace of the 2D games because of the first person perspective.

You've only really done the first main area in the game for the most part (and you're not even finished exploring that, there's some sections you backtrack to later). And the beginning of the game is a bit repetitive TBH, there are some similar looking areas, a slew of tedious minibosses, and yeah, not too many areas. The game will get a bit better later. The map design gets less repetitive (and there's some good puzzles too, most of which are optional for 100%ing), the bosses become more quality over quantity, there are new biomes with more enemies that are more dynamic than the ones you see in Chozo Ruins. I would wait until after the next main area before you write the game off (technically the area after the next area because Magmoor Caverns isn't a main area).

Storywise, there really isn't any dialogue or characters, and the Metroid fanbase tends to prefer it that way because they like the isolation that Metroid typically provides. But there is plenty of lore to scan to learn more about what's going on in the story. If you do want dialogue though, the sequels offer more of that. Prime 2 has a few and there's a lot more in Prime 3.

Yeah hard pass though. Bought draead (mox) as well :/ well gonna sell it, not mu type and if I feel cheated by 10/10, I will not forget this *****.

Just got Cuphead I like challenging interesting games lie this or DK
Honest 10/10s not some nostalgia bullcrap with ass-awful controls

I hope Ocerinia of Time on NSO (gonna be my 1st zelda) will not spoil the whole series to me just as metroid did

I picked up a physical copy way back but still haven't gotten around to playing it and almost certainly won't before the Switch 2 releases at this point so I also really hope it gets a Switch 2 upgrade. Preferably before Metroid Prime 4.

@yoshi420 Honestly it just sounds like you don't like Metroidvanias. That doesn't necessarily make it a bad game, the genre just doesn't seem to fit your preferences.

I am currently playing Metorid Prime Remastered and i am sick and tired of checking out the walkthrough video... I am at level 2 and i already checked the walkthrough video 3 times because i got stucked at puzzles and stuff for level 2.

Just when i passed a puzzle and really started to enjoy the game, there came another puzzle and i was stucked again... I am starting get sick and tired of this. I will probably drop the game, if it goes on like this.

@Dotanuki What is "level 2"? Metroid fans don't typically use that terminology because Metroid games tend to bounce around to different areas throughout the game, they don't tend to be as neatly structured into Level/World 1, Level/World 2, etc. You'll need to give us more to go on to help you. What area are you in? What room? What puzzles are you stuck on?

In general, if you're having trouble with something, use your Scan Visor. It should at least give you a hint on how to progress. If it tells you an obstacle is made of a specific material, that's a hint as to which weapon to use. The detailed description for your weapons will tell you which materials it can break. Other than that, it's relatively simple and self-explanatory. It mainly boils down to scanning stuff and using the right ability.

Honestly, I don't really recall much in the way of mandatory "puzzles" in the early game. It's more about knowing the right path to take than anything else. Most of the more puzzling stuff at this point in the game is optional for 100%. There's a few late game which are a bit more complex, but most of them are fairly easy to figure out if you're keeping track of what you can do with each of your abilities.

@Bolt_Strike Thanks for offering help, but don't worry, there are walkthough videos that give you all the help. Actually, i only dealed with one puzzle so far and had to check out a walkthough video to solve it. I couldn't figure out where i am supposed to go two times. lol And checkted out a walkthough video to see where i must go. And now, for the last time, i got stuck again.

There is a material blocking the way to a tunel and when i scaned it, it said unknown material... lol I will have to check out the walkthough video again, i guess, but it is really tiresome to checkout the walkthough videos so often. I will probably drop Matroid Prime...

@Dotanuki Well if you tell us which parts you're getting stuck on, we might be able to help you figure out why you keep getting stuck. It's not hard if you have hints on (you do have hints on, right? That tells you the general direction you need to go and your next destination), you scan everything you can, and you know what your abilities can do.

Could you give us more than "tunnel with unknown material blocking it"? Open up the map and look for the name of the room you're in. What abilities do you currently have and what was the most recent one you obtained? What were the "puzzles" you got stuck on previously that you needed a walkthrough for?

@Bolt_Strike I am greatful for your concern, but i don't feel like reading all the text on the walls to figure out what is the hint in them. They are too long and boring. I dropped metroid for now, i don't have the energy to read long text and figure out hints and stuff. I am playing Marvel Ultimate Alliance now. lol

I liked the metroid series I got in late because I was a ridley fan first, I beat almost all the games need to beat the prime series and metroid fusion (is it called that), I am on my way to obtaining the phazon suit.

What I don't like about this game is the lack of save points or auto save, I don't want to go an hour playing just to lose and forced to do the same thing again( even have to rescan things). I don't see the fun in that it's like mid movie someone rewinds it for 30 min and you have to rewatch it again except with video games you have to put a lot more effort in.

I don't see why they don't just have hard mode were saves are like this and let players who don't want the unnesserary chalenges play it that way. sorry for the rant but games are supposed to be fun not fell like a job lol.

I do agree that it is annoying when you lose progress and you have to do the not challenging parts that are not exciting at all along with the parts that will actually kill you. That's like the main reason I never finished Dark Souls.
