Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Part 16 - Alpha Blogg

[@gamewizard2008]

You had a way easier time than I did on Alpha Blogg. I lost and had to redo that WHOLE underwater dungeon!

Honestly, I died to this way more than the Boost Guardian my first time because of how janky the mouth hurtbox is. Also: you're not kidding about that temple key. I think it took me til my third playthrough to start remembering it instead of wandering around for an hour unable to figure out where the last key went lmao

Ah Alpha Blogg my old nemesis, we meet again at last!!!

Hey Quasi! Some tips and info for you: - Dark Samus just coming back to laugh at Samus and then dissipating to go do her business is pretty on brand I feel, 😂 - @11:30 Your memory must be really shoddy at times because you walked in this room literally at the beginning of the episode, less than fifteen minutes before this timestamp 😂 - It's not that the weapons are not effective against the Bloggs, but that your timing to shoot the Blogg's mouth is off. You're doing it a bit too early. - @25:00 After you scanned the final terminal and raised the lower section of the Hydrodynamo Station, you're locked out of using that Morph Ball elevator to get back up to the top to save your game. This means that if you die during the Alpha Blogg fight, you have to redo a good portion of content again, depending upon when you last saved. This makes the Alpha Blogg a notoriously annoying boss fight for many players. This boss was a wall for me as a kid and I didn't beat it until my mid teenage years. - The Alpha Blogg is incredibly weak to Super Missiles and the Dark Beam, but as a kid, I could never time my shots well enough that I always died, plus it terrified me being underwater with the thing that my anxiety would make it harder to focus and win the fight. Thanks for the episode!

If you desperately need to refill your Light and Dark ammo while at the sunken temple, shooting the Hydlings before the Alpha Blogg room with Dark and Light beam respectively will give you a ton! Also, yeah, I'm pretty sure Dark Samus released Alpha Blogg.
