Missing the point. Example: Super Metroid and Castlevania SOTN birthed the genre Metroidvania...
They are still metroidvania games. I believe the confusion is because the genre has the word "like" in the naming. If the genre were dubbed "Souls-Style" instead, I bet this conversation wouldn't even be a thing. I bet everyone would agree that the original Dark Souls Trilogy could be classified as "Souls-Style"

For those who may not have listened to the latest interviews regarding their monetization (micro transactions), this is what i understand:
There will be a free battle pass (that everyone will have) and a premium battle pass ($10 per season, which is about 3months)

The free battle pass will contain rewards such as cosmetics, and later into the game, some form of boosts
The premium battle pass only adds additional cosmetic rewards.

So from...

Every now and then I feel compelled to comment on here..... WTF are y'all doing? Go play games and STFU..... Play what you want to play, pay for the services you want to pay for, and stop needlessly comparing shit that doesn't matter. If all this dedication and time wasted on useless bullshit was used for something better...

Horizon waves back from the top of the mountain... lol

In all fairness, I have been playing Horizon, and have Elden Ring sitting next to me as I type this, but haven't played. It very well could be a dominator in the open world genre for sure.

@oldenjon it'll never be a super metroid, and nothing will touch that game, which is true. and on those remarks, its super unfair to really compare any of them to such a godlike title. All in all, I had a great time 100% it on normal. The music was lackluster, the item order list was a bit strange, but overall was super fun... I look forward to running it every so often and trying out hard mode! (All games look to others for reference. Hell even metroid looked to the Alien franchis...

I'd like to chime in. Let me first state I am pretty big metroid fan, as well as metroidvania genre player. Just going to go through your remarks here. Of course it's going to use newer innovations than stick to the gameplay limitations of old, it only makes sense trying to bring in a newer generation into the metroid universe. I am ok with this as it still felt like a metroid first and foremost to me.

Level Design was really well done, if you paid attention to ...

so many grammatical errors, had to stop reading... "Aveline de Grandpré was the first canon Assassin from the Assassin's Creed franchise." really? the first canon assassin? or first female canon assassin? "You may think I'm an Assassin's Creed for two consecutive entries" hmm... I dont think you're an assassin's creed... but you may be an assassin's creed fan?

Can I ask what difficulty are you playing on for this review?

"it can be the player that makes these games feel repetitive when they just go and do the obvious things to get through games quicker that bypass missions in way that give them the easiest way to do so."

Precisely. If you continuously use the same tactic over and over and over and don't get creative with base take downs / infiltrations, of course it can get repetitive...

This essentially a sandbox type of game, with literally hundreds of t...

Interesting, I guess that article they wrote showing all the changes they implemented from closed beta to open (changes that consumers requested) was not listening to the audience.

And you can get almost all the items in game without spending a penny, unless you want some off the wall camo skins
