The world map is king here. Everything ties together nicely, so usually when you get a new power you have several new directions to go and maybe even a shortcut to connect the map better together. The areas are interesting when youre not stuck in slow-motion underwater, and you dont know what lies behind each door. I enjoyed the boss fights -- especially the actual boss fights. Whenever that two-part fight happened with the eagle-boss after you get infinite jumps, man, that was HYYYYYPE! The other bosses came in a lot of different sizes and style too, outside of the Metroids which worked more like mini-bosses. The first time you fight a baby Metroids cool, but then you fight that creature a lot more and their automatic missile-dodging gets tiresome after awhile. The later forms of it are similar...and they try to shake it up with fighting more of them at once or giving you tougher terrain to battle on, but it becomes a chore sometimes. Omega Metroids are the exception since they will straight-up kill you and you dont fight them often. One more complaint: this shinespark-business needs an in-game tutorial of some sort. Has a Metroid game actually trained players on how to do this move before? I get that only minor items and places cant be reached without it, and I get that many long-time Metroid players already know how to do it...but I dont think the series has required you to store your charged run and launch yourself elsewhere like AM2R requires for some of its items, has it? Its a shame Nintendo DMCAd this game right after its release to the public, considering its a free game that very much honors the Metroid series. I havent followed its developer to see if AM2R is back up or not, but it wont cost a thing to download it if you can find it. If Metroid Prime: Federation Force doesnt appeal to you as a former Metroid fan, this might hit home instead. NOW IN 2020: I had to look it up -- it's true, Milton Guasti was really hired to work on the next Ori game. That's a brilliant move. Bring. It.
