Wowy, what a game. While the first opening hours might feel a bit slow, brutal and over-reliant on the counter, the gameplay thankfully escalates and shifts as you push through and power up. The sound design is stellar and ambient, and was very immersive with headphones and the 3d filter. While most of the ost is ambient, it does know when to pay off with some good actual tracks when you get to the more memorable segments. The map interface is also super intuitive and gives you the option for leaving pins for areas you want to revisit. A challenging metroid game with really good level design, gameplay and bossfights. Absolutely loved it!
