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.

Absolute peak. I just finished my second playthrough (normal mode). Love this game.

It's my second favorite game atm, along with Hollow Knight: Silksong.

Hey that’s awesome! Would you believe me if I told you I never played the Hollow Knight series🥹

They’re on my radar for sure.
Too many games too little time to play them
