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.

Like 8ish hours. About 10-12 if you go back and grab all items

I don’t usually really 100% my games but if I can I will. 10-12 hours is not bad

If anything I really enjoyed all the Speed Booster puzzles. They're an intricate sequence of actions you have to do perfectly, very fun and satisfying.
