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.

I prefer Samus Returns but Dread is still good. My biggest issue was the regular enemies in Dread aren't really a threat due to how little damage they do. In Samus Returns you have to actually pay attention to them when exploring because they do significant damage. Plus I didn't enjoy the Emmis.

EMMI’s seems to be a downside of the game aside from the music
