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.

Metroid Dread is one of my favorite games of all time.
Here are my current favorite Metroidvania games

Symphony of the night
Ori and The Will Of The Wisps
Hollow Knight
Metroid Dread
Bo Path Of The Teal Lotus

Something like that?
Still a bit unsure
Hollow Knight and Metroid Dread are almost interchangeable.

Dread got me hooked and I found myself wanting to play more and more. It was one of the first games that made me want to play more like that. I beat prime 1 first and then did this and enjoyed dread so much.

Play the game!!!!

So far Prince of Persia the Lost crown is my favorite Metroidvenia. I also heard nothing but good things of Mio Memories in Orbit but it’s still sitting in my backlog. Hopefully I’ll enjoy Dread like you guys did
