Metroid Dread..

An absolutely fantastic game. Just straight fire all the way through, The areas and backgrounds in this game are just beautiful and stunning and the combat and exploration loop is extremely addicting. Everything in Samus' arsenal is amazing and the E.M.M.I encounters are extremely tense but fun, The map is so big too and it's super satisfying slowly unlocking every part of it. Time really flies whenever you start playing this game 💀

The cutscenes in this game are just amazing, Samus is portrayed as a complete badass and it's just so great to watch. The boss fights are fantastic. They aren't bs in the slightest and they all have a pattern and way to dodge every move and it's feels so good to finally nail that pattern. There's a few that aren't too memorable like the chozo soldiers that have spears and venom barf or the ones that have blasters but the ones like Corpius, Kraid, Experiment No. Z-57, and Raven Beak are absolutely stellar.

Until this was announced at E3 2021 I had no clue this was a game that's been a thing since 2005! That reveal trailer sold me on this though and here we are. Definitely one of my favorite Nintendo games and I really need to play more of the Metroid series after this..

My only nitpicks really is the soundtrack outside of the E.M.M.I chase track is kind of forgettable? I might just be deaf but that's what i thought, I don't care though
The only real flaw with this game is that it ends 😹

Currently working on getting 100% and will most likely do hard mode 👍👍 Don't let the $60 price deter you at all. It's a short game sure but man it's worth it. Please do not pirate this game. This masterpiece is worth absolutely every cent. 💯🔥

LyricalFearical rating: PLAY IT!!
