Playing Metroid Dread right now, not having much fun though. Might quit and start play Ratchet and clank a rift apart tomorrow if things doesn't get any better.
I absolutely love Metroid Dread, sorry to hear you're not enjoying it much.
I've played it on the deck way back. Got through about 60% of the game iirc. Then it just got crazy for me and I've used a trainer to finish it. For the story. Not getting it one bit. I just can't invest that much time in each exaggerated boss.
My biggest complaint is that the emmi zones are annoying and, time-wise are about two thirds of the game. And honestly the zones in between doesn’t feel great either and the three bosses I found so far are kinda repetitive too.
So you're in the beginning of the game. It's quite extensive. I share your sentiment. Though it does seem like it might not be for you. There's a lot of returning to previous areas in the game.
Well, I’m four hours in, that should be plenty of time for a game to be good at that point. I’ve played many metroidvanias that are far better than this game and all those were great from minute one. Guess this game isn’t for me :)
I still have Samus Return on my 3Ds, hope the emmi thing isn’t a staple of the series, will check it out in the future.
Which others? I'm curious 🤔 I've really enjoyed Prince of Persia the Lost Crown for example.
My three all time favs are Guacamelee 1 and 2 and Shadow Complex. The combat and traversal of the formers is so much fun. And the settings and 2.5D if the later are so cool. Also enjoyed Castlevania symphony of the night and hollow knight quite a bit, albeit the traversal in this game is so so.
