Wow, a great breakdown of the series while also calling out Nintendo for the lazy, sucky slobs they are. It makes no sense to me as the Japanese work so hard and make amazing products in general but Sony's Playstation arm and Nintendo just suck at what they do. I absolutely have loved the Metroid series since the first one, it is the first games i ever fell in love with. I loved Metroid Prime Prime Remastered, i can't wait for MP2 and 3 to get remastered. I never refer to the genre as Metroidvania. The Metroid like games are just that in my mind. Castlevania Symphony of the Night came years later and that was the first Castlevania to really institute the backtracking with new abilities style of play. Maybe i am also biased because dark, moody scifi is more interesting to me than gothic horror.

So the thing with Deadly Alliance, Deception, and Armageddon is that they have objectively better stories precisely because there's no story mode. Because there's no linear, movie-like story mode, Deadly Alliance gets to have about 3-4 main narratives within the larger conflict, with characters weaving in and out of them. In fact, considering how much of the 3D era plot gets repurposed for MK9, X, 11, and 12, you can think of the 3D era games as the better written & more complex versions of the NRS games but without any of the time travel or multiverse shenanigans. For example, you have the Special Forces vs Red Dragon stuff, which also incorporates Kano, Cyrax, and Kenshi - Kano also having a big stake in the main narrative as a henchmen to one of the Deadly Alliance, while Cyrax quickly gets caught up in the Dragon King/Vampire stuff, and Kenshi is only involved so he can get closer to the Deadly Alliance to kill Shang Tsung. While Cyrax is off freeing the Realm of Vaerternus from Outworld for Nitara after encountering Reptile, Kung Lao and friends are fighting the main Deadly Alliance tournament, while Li Mei is trying to save her enslaved people in a tournament of her own, and Frost is looking for an opening to backstab Sub Zero, and Scorpion is fighting Drahmin and Moloch while trying to kill Quan Chi, and Sareena is trying to spend time with Sub Zero, and Sektor is taking over the Yakuza in order to cyberize them, etc etc. There's just WAY too many moving pieces there for anything cinematic. Deception has a similar thing, except there IS a linear narrative.... But said narrative is a prequel to Deception to establish its main character (Shujinko). The current day plot is still just as complex and interwoven as Deadly Alliance, with even more factions and realms to consider. It's closer to a political intrigue drama with cosmic horror, dark fantasy, and magical kung fu action elements for Deception. It also follows up directly from Deadly Alliance acting as a direct sequel. Armageddon is like Deception except unfinished. There's the best intro in fighting game history, then there's a Tomb Raider-esque beat em up styled Konquest Mode in which the new protagonist (Taven) does his story which ends parallel to the intro. I say unfinished, because while the story is really good - it's literally not finished. It's an "everyone is here!" style MK game like Mortal Kombat Trilogy was and because Mortal Kombat was the only thing keeping Midway alive throughout the 3d era, they had to rush the game out, which meant that they didn't have time to include (or write) everyone's bios to explain what they're doing and why/how they're here. The writer for Armageddon published them online as he was writing them, but only about 17 of 63 characters got their bios before he had to move on to MK vs DCU and make money. The bios that WERE written are great and readily available online.

I'm of the opinion that the only, yes only, reason Federation Force flopped was because it was released during a drought of Metroid games. People were STARVING for a real Metroid game, and instead they got Federation Force. The same fate would have befallen Metroid Pinball, or maybe even Prime Hunters, had they been released during such a drought. If Federation Force had come out shortly after Samus Returns or Dread, it would have fared much better.

47:11 Fun fact: the Metroid Prime games all take place between Metroid 1 and 2, so while Dark Samus is the second evil clone of Samus by real world time, She actually was the first dark mirror Samus encountered in the story! Also if you wanna get nit-picky and pedantic, you could also technically argue that Dark Samus is the 3rd or even 4th evil clone of samus that we got to see (because there were multiple SA-X, no fewer than 10 on the station by the end of fusion when samus destroyed it if I recall correctly, though we only encountered a couple of them) 😂

@@MarcTheCyborg We see the SA-X in fusion seven times, but at least the last two are the same one (the boss fight and then the one that fights the omega Metroid, it’s the same goopy one that fled after we beat it) and the one in the secret area is a different one from the one we fight because it is destroyed when the secret lab detaches and self destructs. So at least two different ones there, and the four other times for potentially different ones, but there’s no further evidence to support them being the same or different from either of the ones we can confirm are different. I personally feel the first time we see it(the face zoom in) is the same one as the last two times. But it could be a different one due to the nature of the X.

Honestly: What disappointed me was the fact that they ruined Shang Tsung's Aftermath ending... If you've played "Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath", then you'll noticed that the game had the option where you could decide who would ultimately rule the New Era: Fire God Liu Kang or Shang Tsung. In Liu Kang's ending, he defeats Shang Tsung and creates his New Era and peace and prosperity, leading to the events of "MK1". In Shang Tsung's ending, he absorbs Fire God Liu Kang's soul, becomes a Titan, creates his New Era, and launches a conquest against all the realms; it then ends with Raiden and Fujin telling Titan Shang Tsung that Earthrealm, Outworld, and Netherrealm had been conquered and that Chaosrealm and Orderrealm (which had hardly been explored since "Deception" by the way) were next. You get the picture? The ending hinted at the possibility of a "What if Shang Tsung won in 'Aftermath'?" kind of game where Chaosrealm and Orderrealm are the last line of resistance and the only hope left in stopping Titan Shang Tsung's tyranny. And, in all honesty, that would've been the PERFECT game! (Just have Tecmo-Koei/Omega Force make the game in the style of "Dynasty Warriors", create some brand new Chaosrealm/Orderrealm-originated Kombatants, have them fight with/against the Klassic Kombatants we know and love, and the game is complete.) But then, "MK1" revealed that not only did BOTH Fire God Liu Kang and Titan Shang Tsung both create their own universes...but that Titan Shang Tsung is now eyeing to conquer Liu Kang's universe. Basically, if they weren't got going to continue Shang Tsung's "Aftermath" ending, then NRS should NOT have pretended that there WERE (OR, at the very least, they should've left Shang Tsung's "Aftermath" ending open to the imagination). This means that my "What if Shang Tsung won in 'Aftermath'?" dream game will never be made because we obviously know how it's going to end: Titan Shang Tsung conquers Chaosrealm and Orderrealm then sets his sights on Liu Kang's universe (and YES, by the way: I'm saying "universe", NOT "timeline"). Why couldn't Shang Tsung's "Aftermath" ending just end with Raiden and Fujin saying that ALL realms (including Chaosrealm and Orderrealm) were now under Titan Shang Tsung's control (annihilate all hope in Titan Shang Tsung being stopped). THEN the multiverse concept would've made a LITTLE bit more sense. Instead, Titan Shang Tsung's "Aftermath" ending led to NOTHING. And THAT felt like the BIGGEST missed opportunity in "Mortal Kombat" history to me (especially considering how little popularity "Mortal Kombat" has in Japan).

@@MarcTheCyborg Not really the same, but the remastered suffers big problems with any control scheme, you either prioritize aiming or changing beams/visor. Remastered works and is playable, but it has serious drawbacks in multiple situations, like Omega Pirate or the final Metroid Prime fight, where you constantly need to switch between beams and visor to fight specific enemies, for which you need to see the colour and use the X-ray and thermal visors to see the main enemy. Which is why Prime 4 shows weapon selection only d-pad. The point is that in Metroid Prime 1 and 2 you DON'T need to aim. You literally have no benefit of free aim in those games in 99% of the cases.
