My first Metroid games were Super and Prime and at first I thought they were both meh, because that's what Metroid games are like - they take a while to get good and they have a heavy atmosphere that is hard to get into. Also, Super is better than Prime, that much is quite undeniable to anyone with any sense of level design, art design, and storytelling. That said, trying to stir up a fuss about 2D vs. 3D Metroid, you're the one who's making me sad here. Of course I am more hyped for Metroid 5, because A. it would be a long anticipated continuation of a story that was left quite unfinished 15 years ago (unlike Prime, which was finished 10 years ago), and B. because there's actually some real solid evidence of where the game is going and what it might be about, and it could potentially be the most important Metroid game ever story-wise. Prime 4 has none of that, it has a tentative logo and that's it, so of course people aren't as excited - especially considering it's being made by a new, unproven studio that might just screw everything up (I doubt it, but you never know), unlike Metroid 5 which if made by MercurySteam would be on the hands of people who have already handled the franchise very well recently. |
Not unless you believe in objectivity, which I don't.
I'm also not trying to stir up a fuss, there were other posters making comparisons and I comment on them. I admitted to having little experience with the 2D games for a reason, I can't judge them! I just think that I have similar feelings for Prime as you do GOTG 2, where you think it's impossible but still techincally possible for 3 to beat 2. If I had my way I'd prefer both games being released. Plus, I'm going to buy this remake soon! So I could change my mind.
