I was like is this the end? And then he goes and does that and I'm like "oh..." and then Immediately died in 2 hits cause his melee hit boxes are WIDE AF. Edit: Beat it. 8:53 was my final time.

It'd be nice for them to have someone to rely on to do a good 2D Metroid but I have to question whether they'd actually make the acquisition right now or not. Sure they've made 2 games good/great games for them exclusively thus far and it'd probably be pretty great also to have a Spanish studio under their belt but the last acquisition which was Next Level Games took years and a bunch of games that they made exclusive for the Nintendo's platforms with consistent quality before Nintendo put brought them under the umbrella. And then let's also not forget that Alpha Dream was pretty damn loyal to the company as a 2nd party made some pretty solid games before things started becoming questionable and they just let them die off. I don't even think this game surpassing 5 mill would make them attempt to acquire them yet. I think they'd have to probably make like 2-3 more great games first exclusive to Nintendo and then they'd probably be in an undeniable position where getting brought in would be likely.

Like they started out a 2nd party developing Prime 1 and then Spangenberg was doing some shady shit at the time and then NInty had to step in clean house and pretty much bought the company from Spangenberg out right then told the rest of the employees that they were on thin ice complete with the whole 2 finger pointing at the eyes "I got my eyes on you" gesture.

RSG3 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) Just got home from work. Was turning this theory around in my head while working. Could easily be wrong and since I haven't beat Razor Beak yet this is just based on the convo before you fight him. So spoilers y'all Spoiler So it hit me as I was working that in the intro Adam calls Samus Lady. Like they go out of their way to make sure he calls her that...but I don't remember him calling her that even once during the game proper. If I remember right he always addresses her as Samus. I feel this would have stuck out to me more if I had more time with Fusion or any time more then a first run in Other M but it just wasn't a character quirk that stuck with me. So my thought is...did we get Liquid Snaked the whole game? Was he leading us through ZDR the entire time on some "Would you kindly?" Bullshit? Basically I wanna know if was planning to ask me how I liked his Sunglasses! On another note in that same cut scene he calls Samus his daughter. You think that's hyperbole or like he adopted and trained her to fight? Well gonna try and get back to clipping this birds wings. Like Sonic I got to that third phase and he waxed me in two hits lmao. Edited October 12, 2021 by RSG3 Sonichuman and Volt 2 Quote Link to comment

Oh no yeah I have no faith that hollywood won't fuck up something beneficial to the series on some "Kamehamehas heal people" shit. It'd need someone who cared about the lore to some extent along with someone else who's has a good vision. Ridley Scott would would be good for obvious reasons but I think Ridley would need someone else there to keep the movie staying true to Metroid. The main actress would also have to b ok with their face being obscured for a good chunk of the movie and really good with body language. RSG3 1 Quote Link to comment

RSG3 Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 (edited) If be fine with Ridley being on board as a world builder and cinematographer, he knows how to shoot a film, but he tends to love his own story ideas more then what he's adapting. I love BladeRunner but its one hell of a loose adaptation of Androids Dream. I would like the main director to be someone more willing to stick to creating an adaptation proper then Ridley tends to be. I don't really want a Metroid movie that does what the new RE Media Adaptions are doing. Edited October 12, 2021 by RSG3 Quote Link to comment
