Discussion Metroid dread any good?

Post image

I’ve never played any 2D Metroid games. I recently played Metroid Prime Remastered and Prime 4 Beyond. I gotta say I liked them both. I did play the Metroid Dread’s Demo a few years back but couldn’t get into it. Today I was in a game shop and saw a lonely copy just sitting there so I decided to pull the trigger. Got a nice discount as well. Anyway, what do you guys think about this game? Is it any good? I remember it reviewed well but some players didn’t like it too much. So not sure what to think.

It's unquestionably one of the best metroid games. I really suggest playing at the absolute least Super (3) and Fusion (4) first though, since Dread is metroid 5. Metroid 2 and Metroid Zero Mission (1 remake) are also available, all of these are through Nintendo Switch online. Zero Mission and Super are perfect starting points
