Sometime you gotta wonder why only Metroid on NES and Super are the only games in the 2D series with an actually good soundtrack (and I'm being generous with Metroid 1).
Can you imagine playing Dread with each areas having memorable themes and not weird ambiant sounding musics? The only good songs this game have are in cutscenes and none of them are original, they're all remixes from Super.
About the actual game itself it's great despite some flaws: it's one of the best looking game on the Switch, the lack of hub area or fast travelling annoyed me, the sequence breaks are amazing and surprisingly thought of by the devs, the environments are the same since Super, shinespark challenges are still tedious but satisfying when you pull it off and the bosses are absolutely amazing which is a big surprise considering the previous entries the series.
They made Metroid an actual action game, and it's great!
But yeah, I really hope this marks a new beginning for the Metroid series and that future instalments will have a good and original OST because that clearly wasn't the case here.

cant beat demifiend :(
Other than that you can tell development was hell with some aspects of it like the last dungeon, the story and some quest.
While the story disappointed me a lot, which really is a shame, the exploration, combat and demon customization are all fucking perfect and completely make up for it. It's just so damn fun exploring these giant open-levels and battling with your demon army that you modify practically everything about it, which can be overwhelming at time but who cares. The music is amazing and most overworld themes are really unique and catchy, while also fitting with the apocalyptic tone of the game.
So overall, great game, worth the wait, literally the botw of the dark souls of jrpgs without the heart.

You know damn well that if the portable and console versions of this game were separated on this site, it would be among the highest rated game listed on it.
Really disappointing move from the site admins, desperately trying to sabotage the reputation of an obvious classic like that, YOU'LL BE THE FIRST UNDER GOD'S HAMMER DON'T YOU FORGET!
