I want to kill this piece of shit game. Worst metroid game. Worse than Other M, worst version of metroid 2, worst remake of all time, the only reason it has a positive rating is because there was a metroid drought and this was passable enough, the same way that donkey saliva is a passable beverage for a person whos been stuck in a desert dehydrated for 15 years.

Fuck the parry making the quick movement of 2d metroid into moving forward, waiting for the enemy to attack, parrying, doing the finnicky ass followup. Fuck the control scheme and the dumbass aeion abilities, fuck the cutscenes that play any time anything happens. Fuck the metroid fights being somehow more monotonous and drawn out than the gameboy original or fan remake. Why would you put them all into identical square rooms? just because this one shoots fire or that one shoots lightning doesnt mean its different or fun. Fuck the bosses being parry baits. Fuck the robot drill dude, genuinely one of the worst fights in gaming. Fuck the atmosphere ruining 2007 high fantasy MMO ass graphics and artstyle. Fuck the boring ass layouts, the trashfire haphazard placement of everything, this makes me wonder why the fuck nintendo decided to give the reins for dread to this dev, im glad they did because dread is good but this is an abomination. This is dread with all of the flaws and none of the good parts. Theyve got the parries and inelegant design but no emmis or fun combat or bosses. Who the fuck thought it was a good idea to break up certain metroid fights? yes, its so much more fun to shoot the metroid, get it almost dead, and then it just leaves into another identical room and you have to maneuver around to the next room to continue the fight. If I wasn't committed to the metroid marathon then I would've dropped this like an hour in. I hacked my 3ds to pirate this and I still feel ripped off. Don't forget them completely ruining every aspect of the all timer ending. It's as if the developers hated metroid 2. And I think I heard somewhere that they wanted to remake fusion instead, and you can tell they were mad about that because the only explanation is they made this suck on purpose to ruin metroid 2's reputation. This game makes me respect the metroid series less. It makes me worried that dread was a fluke and this might be the quality of games going forward in the series. Playing this has expedited my suicide meter. I WILL kill myself if I ever think about this again.
