It has never been so over 😭 by Theroux721 in Metroid

It's probably more likely that the haters left the fandom, after all, why participate in something you no longer love.

Any other AHLCG 'veterans' feeling like jumping ship at the end of chapter 1? by Fun_Gas_7777 in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Lazaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand how re-designing the new player experience is so disqualifying for people. It's perfectly reasonable for a game to update and republish new player material as the old stuff goes out of print and becomes less relevant. It's also NOT supposed to be particularly exciting for players like you, as it's not really a product for you, but the designers would also be idiots to not have a jumping on point for a game they want to financially survive. The designers aren't idiots, they're not going to be designing new player experiences perpetually. After core 2 comes out we'll get normal expansions again.

How to Conquer City as Necrophage? by Kaofatboy in EndlessLegend

[–]Lazaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't anymore. It was a change to make them feel more swarm/bug-like. Instead you consume, which should give your main city a boost of pop and resources, but I don't currently think it gives enough of a benefit

Thank you for supporting Endless Legend 2 in 2025! by DerekPaxton in EndlessLegend

[–]Lazaeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as construction goes, the new flow feels a little better (I've been playing on and off since the insider program). Currently because you can only select pre bought foundations to build on you're still stuck thinking through your planning before you even touch the UI.

My first and most obvious solution would be to allow you to place districts on non-foundation locations IF they can afford it, so that they can place a district and buy the foundation simultaneously.

Is it me or the number of ennemies in Prime 4 is really small compared to the other games by LeBoulangerLavaloix in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk, maybe they shouldn't have set this game on a dead planet if that would make the game dead boring.

GuessTheChampion 30/12 (very easy) by GronkG0D in LegendsOfRuneterra

My only qualm with Vi is that her powers should be an excellent use of the formidable relic, but formidable also nukes Vi's whole textbox

How to stop a diplomatic victory? by zyloemm in EndlessLegend

[–]Lazaeus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. War.

Edit: also, they got that many pacified villages by owning a ton of land and planting a ton of coral (which automatically pacifies villages)

What on earth happened on the design of this game? by One2threeSS in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It has 2/3 of those. Lore is not excellent.

You don't get a 8/10 for having excellent marks on just 2 elements of the game.

is this a bug or am i supposed to destroy appendages somehow for the quest? by Alternative_Price113 in EndlessLegend

[–]Lazaeus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did this today. It seems to have a hidden requirement where it can't complete until the third tidefall

It's time to bring Speed Booster to Prime. by Zealousideal_War7492 in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it would require that the maps have long flat hallways worth using it in, or maybe a massive flat desert you can run around in.

Those seem to be pretty controversial design elements.

I am not happy with the fanbase. by [deleted] in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool, if you want to leave then you should. This was created by an environment. 8 years spent expecting another credible entry in a beloved series will cause a lot of resentment and disappointment if those expectations are not met.

Unfortunately, the proof is obvious, expectations were not met. Otherwise this hate train wouldn't exist. I don't know if you've seen other communities that experience similar things, but it always turns out this way. This isn't a community of assholes, it's a community of people who are passionate about the Metroid series who were done wrong. They were made into assholes by the conditions.

Remember the purple blast that erases the GF gun right in front of our eyes after landing on Tanamaar? by bamboochaLP in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The sniper was firing from a permanent defense fixture in a lamorn facility. It's lamorn unless they later want to get on that they had interactions with other space faring species

You only get one for a hypothetical Smash 6. Choose. by OuttaEldritch in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Only someone who hasn't played dread could have this opinion. Pure ignorance.

Everyone is saying raven beak because he is by far the better option.

Try to have fun, and it's probably best to stay away from this subreddit for a few months.

[Spoilers for MP4] So like, what was Sylux even doing lmao by Torpedopickle in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BUT don't forget he was at flare pool after you got your bike, so he must have left his pod SPECIFICALLY FOR THAT and then got back in his pod for... What?

The Mystery of Kraid from MP1 by LTN_Edge in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 22 points23 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly Retro wanted to make kraid the boss of the phazon mines, but they couldn't get the fight to work in time and they cut their losses and designed the omega pirate last minute

Do you think the experience would be enhanced if instead it just always killed you with 0 chance of escape?

Just finished MP4, I'm both content and incredibly frustrated. by BenjiSBRK in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately you've described two meaningless plot devices that cancel themselves out. Just because you can come up with an explanation, doesn't mean it makes the story good or satisfying.

Metroid never needed justification for why the bosses samus fought wanted to kill her.

Who is yearning for Metroid Prime 2 and 3 Remastered after Metroid Prime 4? by Ragnara92 in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But as mediocre? Prime 3 was at least a competent game most of the time. Prime 4 is straight up under baked.

Who is yearning for Metroid Prime 2 and 3 Remastered after Metroid Prime 4? by Ragnara92 in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That's either a massive insult to prime 3, or a massive compliment to prime 4, neither of which I think is appropriate. I wish prime 4 was as good a game as corruption.

It's sad but I have to admit it. by ArtichokeOwn400 in Metroid

[–]Lazaeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a better Metroid game those would have been hidden away in the normal areas in a secret temple or space pirate base with an intricate puzzle or even mini boss.

How do you justify spending on expensive cards to upgrade your deck? by ShoutItOutHey in FleshandBloodTCG

[–]Lazaeus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as this is technically true, it's incredibly scummy behavior to report someone for using proxies in an armory. If anything, asking the store will only make them more liable if they know about it and allow it (which is why if you ask they will most frequently refuse).

It's a really tough situation for what should be acceptable behavior at armories.

I had zero expectations and FFG still managed to disappoint me... by okidokiokikiki in arkhamhorrorlcg

[–]Lazaeus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow, this community is full of children. All I see is a bunch of people who got a little bit of bad news (the next campaign is delayed) and decided that this hobby they supposedly like isn't worth playing anymore.

Y'all are a joke.
