If this is the “good” version of the game, what did it look like before Retr

Date: December 10th, 2025 7:51 PM Author: charcoal vibrant wrinkle do people really hate this game? it doesn't seem all that different or worse than the other ones. is it just the State of Gaming leaving a bad taste in one's mouth? have we reached the limit of our patience with Western devs?

Date: December 10th, 2025 7:59 PM Author: frisky meetinghouse I don't even know. I've always kind of thought the Prime games were a joke for the reasons I've mentioned 50 times.
the online/Loser fandom just want Metroid to be Cool and Badass. If Samus disemboweled space pirates and did fatalities on Chozos they'd love it. An M-rating would do wonders for the reception among youtubers. Again it's the Turok dev. Why not make a game in the tradition of Mortal Kombat and Turok? Why don't more games just try to appeal to Scumbags who like badass/violent shit? |

Date: December 10th, 2025 8:19 PM Author: charcoal vibrant wrinkle idk Metroid is just pulp sci-fi/fantasy. It is as innocuous and bloodless as Star Fox afaik. I don’t think anyone is looking for a gritty curb-stomping Samus so I don’t know what the problem is tbh.

Date: December 10th, 2025 8:29 PM Author: frisky meetinghouse The problem imho is that Prime 1 was ridiculously overrated. Prime 2-3's reception bears this out. The hype does not square with reality at all.
Prime 1 review scores:
AllGame 4.5/5[69] Edge 9/10[70] Electronic Gaming Monthly 10/10, 10/10, 10/10[71] Game Informer 9.5/10[72] GameSpot 9.7/10[6] GameSpy 96/100[13] IGN 9.8/10[7] Famitsu btw iirc gave it a 33 which is more than fair. More than fair. They gave Prime 4 a 32. |
