in all other media, their relationship is very very tense, Samus wields tech that exceeds anything they have and is able to deal with threats.. that they would love to capture to use, they respect and use her, but it seems they'd gladly double cross her for any number of reasons.
I'd be very curious to hear what you think about the X-Fusion romhack if you ever play it
Not saying it will happen, but with modern western writers, lots of them seem to have an inferiority complex where they have to prove that are somehow a better writer or know how to do something better than their predecessors and almost always fail to do it. So anything horrible is possible with them.
Total redo of Fusion. There's 2 versions of the romhack, one for SNES/SMetroid, and one for GBA/Fusion.
The woman who literally blew up entire planets still struggling with feelings of "powerlessness" at the end of the timeline is a monty python-tier silly conceit.
I would partially disagree there. I think Prime 2's environments are a step above Prime's, and this is coming from a certified Prime 3 dickrider who thinks Elysia is the coolest location in the entire Metroid series. Not to say I have anything against Prime's locales though, since we're dealing with Retro Studios' 2000s art department which means everything was superior. That said, the one place that comes closest to potentially topping Elysia in my mind isn't any location from Prime 1, it's Prime 2's Sanctuary Fortress. The Sanctuary Fortress is an artistic achievement on the gamecube, much like Elysia is an artistic achievement on the Wii. Every single room has some new complex texture or graphical model to look at. The enemies are unique and cool, the cyber rain is eye catching, and all the little mechanoids and pieces of high technology are basically just Retro's art team flexing at you.
I’m guessing that the destruction of Zebes, the planet she was raised on, along with the death of the baby Metroid, are what contributed to such a feeling in her. After everything she went through, I can kind of understand it.
She states in the introduction that she was contracted by Biologic Space Laboratories B.S.L., which is the corporation owning the space station in which the game takes place.
He didn't, actually. Ridley just says he might have eaten her mother to Samus. He did however kill her mother with that breath attack he has in front of her. The woman visibly gets basically vaporized, meaning Ridley is bullshitting.
I've completely mandela effected that away and I knew that, the dementia is kicking in.
You were using the dark beam wrong. It's basically just a reskinned ice beam from Prime 1, so a charge shot freezes them then a missile kills most things in the game.
So what? She still works for the GFed in the beginning of the game. That's what I meant.
Answering the distress signal was, I believe, a condition of using the ship given to her by the Galactic Federation. I believe B.S.L. sent her to them since they couldn't handle the X infestation in her body. Anyway, we're splitting hairs, so I'll concede.
It's a switch 1 game that has a switch 2 version. The original trailer was switch 1 footage running at 60fps, and prime remastered on the same engine runs locked 60 at 900p docked and 600p handheld. The paid switch 2 update version, per nintendo's own words at some point, gives HDR, 120hz at 1080p, or 60fps at 4k, higher res textures, and mouse controls
sure thing faggo, will you try the damn thing with the switch 1 emu?
i don't really trust nintendo but is this going to be a PS3/PS4 style of game where the game is clearly meant to run on PS4 but it's heavily capped for PS3 just so they can get some sales from people that don't want or don't have the money to upgrade? cyberpunk comes to mind as well where on PS4 it's garbage but on PS5 is doable to play with.
Competency crisis is really starting to rear its head in the gaming world now. First they absolutely butcher Homeworld's story telling and themes with Homeworld 3, and now theyre doing it to Metroid.
The environments look less detailed than Prime Remastered, but they are larger so the frame budget is likely the same (Prime on gamecube got away with crazy detail at the time because of the small enclosed levels, and the remaster carried that as well), if it were made for switch 2 I don't think it would be hitting 120fps at 1080p or native 4k 60 since they would use the extra frametime budget to increase the detail of the scenes instead of using it for performance.
