I can’t wait to play Arceus & I already love BD to the point I pre ordered it already so I can play it early! Also subscribed! ❤️ PS Can you possibly do a Rewritten mod for both the main plot & the DLCs with maybe a Kalos mod? And also would installing your mods will ruin my Switch Eshop or not? Thanks again Kingdom! 🧡💛💚💙💜

I love how disrespectful she is to Kraid. She enters the room ready to kill but then lowers her guard when she recognizes him like "Oh. This bitch." And when Kraid tries to fire a spike at her, she dodges it without any style or flair because he doesn't deserve that kind of effort.

Raven Beak had the audacity to call her “My Daughter.” I like to think that was where she snapped.

I can't believe anyone would say that Samus wasn't emotive enough- she's basically radiating confusion (her first use of her metroid powers), irritation (shutting off the fans), warmth (quiet robe), bemusement (that kraid dodge needs to be made into a gif), and a metric fuck ton of rage (80% of the game). Samus spoke with her body language and animations; arguably as much as the doom guy did back in 2016.

That moment when Samus digs her claws into his head are some of the most cathartic moments. I think Raven Beak forgot that you can't unlock a feeding Metroid without concussive force, and to see her so 120% done with all the shit she'd been put through on ZDR that she ripped the energy out of his ship was just an absolute beauty to behold. Hell, the entire sequence after you dusted the X was the game saying 'At this point, you're invincible. We won't bother you with a HUD.'

I love how when Quiet Robe approaches Samus, she turns to him in threat assessment mode, with her defenses up because she's just so used to having her life threatened everytime she encounters another unknown being; then when he gives her a friendly greeting, you can see the tension literally melt away from her body, and she has a moment of relief. And that's communicated without her needing to make a sound. Also love how Raven Beak looks at his remaining wing, then locks eyes with Samus and then rips it off while maintaining that eye contact. The body language as a whole in this game is legitimately amazing.

I love how in the cutscenes, she moves and points her arm cannon at new threats just as crazy fast as a top-tier player can do in game. Not only the reaction speed, but the physical movement so instantaneous that there isn't even a motion blur. Just one instant she's looking around casually, and the next she has that thing pointed directly at your face. Really drives home the idea that those feats you can accomplish in-game aren't story/gameplay segregated. She's ACTUALLY that much of a physically impossible badass.

Assuming a minimum frame rate of 24fps she moved in less than a third of a second. Not only that, her movement was PERFECT. Try to hold your arm out and then whip around that fast to aim behind you. You'll likely move too far and have to pull back to compensate, or not move far enough and need to adjust a little. Samus' arm moved at full speed through that entire action and came to a dead stop when her new target was lined up. Any schmuck can move fast, but she moved fast with perfect precision!

Sidenote: Kinda've interesting seeing how different Space Marine Archetypes handle their "Silent Protagonist" category. Master Chief is silent because he's marine focused on following orders and completing the objective. Doom Guy is silent because he genuinely doesn't give a fuck about what anyone thinks and does what he sees fit. Samus though? She is neither as reserved as Doom Guy nor as social as John 117, but only talks when it is necessary to show respect to what she deems a "civilian" or to consort with her work associates. Other than that, she doesn't care at all for banter or shit talk because every ounce of disrespect she can give is instead conveyed through her body language.

@@ScyBlade Unfortunately, their methods are incompatible. The Doom Slayer heals and powers up by absorbing pure hell energy, or its filtered variant, Argent. He’s just so incredibly angry that it literally can’t corrupt or kill him, so it only makes him stronger. Samus is able to absorb X Parasites because she’s developed Metroid traits from the experimental vaccine she took in Fusion. Her Power Suit then converts the extra mass and energy into ammo and suit energy, something it’s capable of doing because the damn thing is near-magical Chozo biotech that’s so tightly interwoven with Samus’ own biology it, too, has taken on Metroid traits. Essentially, the Doom Slayer’s absorption method is rooted in magic and spiritual purity (pure, unadulterated RAGE, to be specific), and Samus’ is rooted in extremely futuristic biotechnological f***ery. Ironically, the X is one of the few things that could absolutely kill most space marine protagonists instantly. It doesn’t seem to mind any form of armor when infesting hosts, and is absurdly difficult to effectively deter, never mind kill, without the assistance of a handy-dandy Metroid. Combined with its absolute lethality and ability to rapidly consume, improve, and redeploy complex organic forms, the X Parasite makes even Halo’s Flood look like a total joke in terms of threat level. Samus just happens to be pumped full of the one thing that is a perfect counter to the X - the DNA of the life-energy-consuming Metroid bio weapon, which apparently one-ups the X’s consumption method.

As badass as Samus' nonchalant reaction to Kraid is, you gotta give points to Kraid too. Resurrected again, abducted by the setting's resident bird precursors, held in captivity chained up in a fucking lava pit, who knows what else, and of course having a few nasty wounds from what he's been through. And in this completely alien setting he's been thrown into, somehow The Hunter finds him. The Hunter, scourge of space pirates, the human that's already put him down twice. The first thing he sees in who-knows-how-long that he might remember from his old life, and it's the last thing he saw twice in a row, and soon to be a third time. And what does Kraid do, in the sort of "out of the frying pan, and into the fire" situation that deserves an Other M moment all its own? *He goes down swinging.*

On the other side, we also have the X that had collected the experiment that Raven Beak tortured, Kraid that Raven Beak tortured, and packaged them all in Raven Beak. It took all of their resentment, all of their hatred for him, and brought him, unguarded (because Kraid's hide is invulnerable to Samus' weaponry), and knew that this Metroid could destroy all of it. Its own destruction was a footnote to using their rage to annihilate the bastard that caused their suffering.

Same, I love it, and even though it's similar to a LOT of other scenes from shonen anime and video games, I feel like it's more impactful because Samus isn't a "stupid" protagonist. She's not the Goku type who will walk straight into every single trap and sacrifice herself for the greater good; when her pupils go small and she starts screaming, we KNOW she isn't kidding around, and is fighting for her own life as much as anyone else's.

People are rightfully heaping praise on Samus in this outing but I gotta say, Raven Beak is impressive as hell and one of the more fearsome villains I have ever seen. Sure his plans are quite evil, but the dude so dedicated to being the best warrior that he RIPS HIS OWN DAMN WING OFF the moment it becomes even slightly a hindrance (low key tells you everything you need to know about his personality). Lets not forget where Samus gets her warrior swagger from.... Raven Beak!

So, something fun I just realised: Aeion actually ties the MercurySteam _Metroid_ s back to _Zero Mission_ in a way that's honestly genius, and even tells us a ton about Raven Beak's personality! Remember how, to get the Fully Powered Suit, Samus had to pass the Ruins Test? A living mural also known as the God of War, that looks like a different kind of Chozo than Old Bird & Grey Voice, and attacks with a bizarre lightning ability that seems more supernatural than scientific? It's based on a Mawkin, using some form of lightning Aeion. A Mawkin that uses lightning Aeion, and is considered a god due to its combat power... sound like anyone we know?

While it has never been clearly established *when* exactly Prime happens, there are some changes both during the "fusion" timeline and during the "Prime" timeline that basically contradict each other so widely (thanks mostly to new entries like Dread and Other M) that you can think of those as separate timelines similarly to the Zelda timeline split.

It’s not the worst game ever, far from it, but as a Metroid game it’s horrible and almost destroyed Samus and the entire franchise for us.

@@falloutboy1379 I don't think it's Chozo-dna that makes the Morph Ball possible, but just the technological advancedment of the Chozo. The morph ball is technology, nothing more or less. We can assume how it works: First: how can Samus switch from suit to ball and back to suit mode? Remember that she can summon her Power Suit at will, if she wears the Zero Suit. Maybe that is possible because of intelligent metal or nanites or whatever. It gives us a base how Chozo armory generally works. If Samus picks up a Morph Ball upgrade, it contains data how to rearange the suit the user is wearing. Thats why the Morph Ball looks different depending on Samus' suit. It IS the suit. Switching back just gives it its original shape. Second: How does the Mporph Ball look like from inside? Metroid Prime Trilogy contains several artwork and concept art. One shows some inner layser of a Morph Ball. The armor we all know and right under it, a rough metallic sphere. That's all it show, but enough for me to create a theory. The Morph Ball measures ca. 1 meter in diameter in the case of a human controlling it. A flexible person should be able to squeeze in such space (maybe). So prevent motion sickness, the cockpit lays on a gyroscope. It stays vertical, no matter what. The rough surface of the inner ball i mentioned before holds the armory via magnetism at place and moves them around to roll. I thought long and hard about it, but it's justa theory. What do you think about it?

Samus has always been seen as such a stoic character (aside from the localization of Other M which was... weird), so having shots of her being *genuinely angry* was just that much more badass as a result. I have a hard time believing any Metroid game will ever top this one.

I'd imagine for this game, this is the closest that Samus ever came to the full-on rage that even the Doom Slayer represents. I'd wager that she knew that ADAM wasn't ADAM the moment he made first contact with her after Raven Beak bested her. And by the way, Raven Beak could have easily killed her the moment he laid eyes on her, but he made the mistake of letting her live.

@@exxor9108 Oh, absolutely. ADAM has the peculiar and friendly habit of refering to Samus as "Lady". But during all the talks through the Terminals, "ADAM" doesn't call her that, not even once. At some point, I started suspecting why he wasn't caloing her "Lady", lowkey fearing they had messed up his characterization. Samus, though... I agree, she probably would've noticed the odd lack of recognizable habits that ADAM subtly displayed. She knew the man and the AI like no other. Maybe she was already aware from the jump that that's not ADAM, but decided to play along until she could face the impostor personally.

Going in fresh, i had the game downloaded and ready the morning of launch. I made some breakfast nuggets, got a soda, and sat down to play. I kid you not when i say, i played aaaaalll day, outside of bathroom breaks, lunch, and dinner, clear through to the end. 11 hours :23 minutes of pure, metroid bliss. It was just.... ah, beyond joy. I haven't effortlessly (in the sense of binge-playing, not difficulty, the game kicked my ass) played through a game like that in what feels like a decade. Hours just slipped away. And by 5 am the next day i got roll credits. And i cannot express how FANTASTIC it was.
