Yep, my office now gives a lot more freedom on working from home (probably the only good thing about the pandemic). This means I get an extra 1h30 min of sleep

My copy may or may not be arriving tomorrow. But I’ve been waiting 19 years for a Metroid 5, I can wait a little longer. If I have to.

Im curious do people try to 100% their metroid games, everytime I play super metroid and prime I do this, but with fusion and zero mission Its a pain with all the tricks you need to do so I skip it when I replay them. Wonder how hard this game will be to 100%

I would also like to get some reassurance on this.

Fantastic ST! Picking up the game + OLED in 3 hours
I'm only slightly bitter my title from Era wasn't chosen >_>

Metroid Dread announced for Nintendo Switch, coming October 8th 2021 (Gameplay at Threadmarks) Nintendo
Didn’t even think about slide making roll useless. Maybe bomb jumps will be more important? Morph ball could still be necessary for tiny spaces that are more than one block long, or morph ball mazes, or a hole that's halfway up a wall where Samus can't slide to, etc.

Happy Metroid Dread day Fam!
It’s 7am here and Amazon haven’t even shipped my copy yet, so I’ll likely be playing Monday or Tuesday. Ah well.

Don't mind me, this is where I live from now on! Just recieved the shipping confirmation for my SE, too. Everything is coming together nicely. It's so close now, I can almost taste it.
Nice job on the OP, @Aurc!

First party titles always unlock at 12AM ET / 9PM PT. Have fun playing Dread tonight before bed.

Very fun so far! Played for about an hour and have beaten the first two EMMI’s (although the first one doesn’t really count).
Quite a few deaths so far, but to be fair that was mostly due to me being dumb and trying to rush the EMMI encounter instead of planning them out.
Even at the early stage without most of the upgrades, movement and running through areas at speed when you can just feels good.

Yo, while you're here, and if you don't mind me asking, why did you guys keep the "Era" from ResetEra when you made XboxEra?
Shpeshal Nick
XboxEra.com Co-Founder
Because when we originally started it, we were technically "a part" of Reset. We were the Xbox Community of Reset. But then when there was...shall we say, a falling out, we had already built up too much of a brand to change it.
It would be a massive headache to change it now.

How is the HD rumble implementation?

Didn’t read any reviews because of spoilers, did anyone say if the sound track is good?
From what I have seen the soundtrack seems to probably be the weakest part of the game.

Started playing this morning before work and really enjoyed the first odd hour. It's hard to believe that a new 2D Metroid game is upon us!
