Dread is being handled by the Samus Returns team (Mercury Steam), but they've made a bunch of gameplay tweaks that make Dread look way better than Samus Returns (and I DID like Samus Returns). For example, the melee counters from Samus Returns are actually integrated into the movement this time, so you don't have to stop moving to counter an enemy. In fact, Samus looks like she'll move more fluidly than ever before.
So excited for you!!! Though 20 years is a significantly smaller percentage of my life. *knees creak*
Both Metroid Thread and The Chozon One were my babies, so it's only right that if one site uses one the other should use the other.
I'm dready
From the few reviews I read, it seems to be around 10-12 hours for a casual playthrough.
Are there any optional things? Or do you discover 95% of the map simply just by finishing the game?
I didn't read anything about optional bosses. One review said they finished in 12 hours with like 83% completion or so. And I believe they said they took time to explore but weren't being like a completionist about it.
Nowhere near full completion by just finishing the game. A Metroid fan who got the game early and was posting online beat it in around 9 hours with like 39% completion lol
It’s possible to beat it then with low map completion, I wonder if there’s anything worth finding in that other 60% of the map, maybe alternate endings and stuff?
Seems fairly unlikely, most likely just missiles and energy tanks.
I like having all kinds of things to find off the main path, oh well still going to be good either way
Yeah understandable, that's just not really how Metroid rolls
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Well the game is hard apparently so you are going to die lol.
Oh I think fusion did this? Like my save file would say 5 hrs, i would go to boss and it would kill me then when I started back at my save file it still said 5 hrs instead of 5 hrs 10 mins? Even though I just spent 10 mins on the boss
.
woohoo except I work the day it comes out
