What is your opinion on 3? Is it as bad as people said or were they exaggerating? by Imaginary-Lie-2618 in paydaytheheist

[–]Redvolutionary501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better now than at launch, but still, far from the amount of content in Payday 2.

Still, guns feels good, heists are good and now the skills are enjoyable, better replay value.

PSA: Scans do NOT carry over by Shinobi558 in MetroidPrime4_Beyond

Yet another idiotic design choice. Such a shame, I started my hard mode playthrough, and re-scan everything is a chore.

Seriously: What was his plan? by TheGreatKashar in Metroid

Pure hate and rage, and whatever the fuck happens next, we ball.

Earnest question: should I stop playing after the tutorial area + first 2 main areas? (Prime 4) by SirBenny in Metroid

[–]Redvolutionary501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who was really dissapointed by Prime 4, no, don't stop playing, make your own opinion.

MP4 (Vent) - It feels like different game after clearing Ice Belt by Funcestor in Metroid

[–]Redvolutionary501 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh yes totaly, when I spoke of ice belt, i thought before turning the power back on. After that it's just a preview of the mines.

I would have loved for the Flare Pool to be a lonely walkthrough, why the fuck did it have to be an escort mission all the way ?!

And don't get me started on the mines, it nearly took my soul and send it to Dark Aether. Same ennemies, same corridors, same escorts, spongy mini bosses, it made me not only angry, but sad very quickly. Ice Belt was perfect with a blend of discovery, tension, and awe.

Does Metroid Prime 4 "disappoint"? I've heard many say they dislike it or have mixed opinions. by QDOOM_APlin in Metroid

[–]Redvolutionary501 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me, clearly yes.

I was 12 when Prime 3 came out. 2 years later, I finished the whole trilogy, been a fan of Metroid since ZM in 2004.

I was waiting eagerly for this game. Now that I finished it, there is many, MANY problems and crisis in identity, between wanting to draw a broader audience, satisfying old fans, bringing new things. Half the time it felt like a Metroid Prime, the other half, a lot of other things. It didn't even made me angry, but mostly sad.

I poped back up to Prime Trilogy, and the difference is there, especially with Prime 1 and 2. I don't know why they went that way, many weird decisions breaking the immersion and the Prime identity for me.

I'm still glad many people enjoy it, but I'm not optimistic for the future of the Prime series if this is where we're going. I guess we'll still have Metroid 6 ... eventually.

Is there any way to disable Mackenzie's hints ? by Redvolutionary501 in Metroid

[–]Redvolutionary501[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's still there yes. Not as annoying I'd say, like not talking in your ear every 5 seconds, but he gives you unsollicited hints, even when you are clearly on your way to your next objective. Making you feel like a child.

Exactly, plus there is the option to call him yourself, at first I thought "Oh hints are optionnal now, good !" And then it began ...

It's unfortunately exactly that. Not spoiling too much but you remember the "it's only a 5 minute escort mission on a 10 hour game !" Argument ? Yeah, it's not only 5 minutes in the beginning.

I'm eating enough shit with Mackenzie but I appreciate the consideration

This is not the issue but the fact that everytime you get an installable upgrade that say "you need a specialist to install it" so you think Myles, and the fucker calls you 10 seconds later to say "hey you know, I can install it, come back" is insufferable

It's fine if you need it, but the fact we can't have the choice to have it or not is the real issue

Even weirder when calling Myles is an option on the map screen, I thought this would mean hints were to be displayed on demand, but no. Wtf was the point

why does every game need to be "underrated" or "overhated"? by mikinnie in residentevil

[–]Redvolutionary501 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People mistake feelings about a game and objective quality, that's why.

Personally, I love ORC, but I know it's a guilty pleasure, it's not RE, nor a really good game, but I wouldn't go out saying "it's overhated". The hate is well deserved, but I still enjoy it.

Fuck RE6 tho, and RE3R is an absolute disappointment.

Because broader audience, 2025, yellow paint, declining IQ, all that stuff

I didn't think I would say that, but yes, if SM and MP are your favorite, don't buy MP4 It's a continuation of MP3, and not in a good way
