The last time they tried to make a more traditional Metroid game 3D it ended in "polarizing" results, so should the next mainline entry try 3D again?
Exactly, the main series should stay 2D, while Prime (and potential spinoffs) remains 3D.We can keep having 2D and 3D (prime) like the Mario games. Time for Zelda to follow the same route (and Pokemon).
Metroid 6 and whatever follows should be 2D.
Just because the one game that was made in third person 3D was bad doesn't mean there is no value.I don't think there's much value in 3D shoulder camera-style gameplay for these games.
Yeah that's really it, it's not anything inherent, it's a badly made game spoiling the concept commercially.3D 3rd Person Metroid is tainted by Other M's horrible reception. I can't see it happening.
Actually my hot Other M take is that outside missile gameplay (which is a shit fit for the game), the gameplay of Other M isn't that bad. It's a Team Ninja romp, with all the good and bad that entails, but constrained on a controller that doesn't work for a Team Ninja game (because Sakamoto didn't want them using the nunchuck). The big dumpster of Other M is really the story (and to be frank it's such a big dumpster that it's dragging everything else down with it).Just because the one game that was made in third person 3D was bad doesn't mean there is no value.
Other M was hard codified as mainline Metroid in the Dread endings.Mainline Metroid is 2D.
The Prime series is 3D.
This is pure conjecture and opinion. Even the 2D games all have quite varying physics. hence you get recent players calling Super Metroid 'unplayable' due to its floaty physics.I'm saying there's no value in a 3D third person or first person mainline Metroid for very different reasons than just "Other M bad" (even if yes, Other M is the forever low point of Metroid as a franchise); you just can't really do the type of physics mainline Metroid needs to "feel" like Metroid in 3D all that well
Fair enough.Other M was hard codified as mainline Metroid in the Dread endings.
I'd enjoy this but not at the expense of the mainline 2D series. If the question the thread poses is whether the main series should go 3D then we'd have two 3D lines (assuming Prime continues) instead of the balanced 2D/3D two-pillar approach they have now.I actually voted 3D because I want another take on the Other M type of gameplay (GAMEPLAY!) and camera angles with obviously analog controls and not being stuck in order to fire missiles. Not even mentioning story and direction.
Yeah, basically close thread because this is the way lmao. Dread has to be the 2D game with the greatest game-feel I've ever played.After how amazing Dread felt to control, I say keep it to 2D.
If anything I'd like to see the game you described take the torch from Prime as the next 3D entry while Metroid 6 stays 2D.
Big fan of black and blue?2D. Style-wise... Sorry Nintendo but Team Cherry(Hollow Knight) looks better and sets more of an atmosphere than Dread. You should steal from their book
