I've been thinking of trying out the Metroid series recently. The game I've spent the most time with is Fusion, though I've never really dedicated a concentrated effort towards experiencing the series. It's hard to find time for these things though... I might just keep the scope small; limited to the games before Samus' backstory was changed via the manga / Zero Mission / Prime.

Perhaps just 1, 2, Super, and Fusion... Maybe Dread since that's a sequel to Fusion. I don't plan to touch the Prime games, but there was an interesting 2D fan remake of Prime... So perhaps I should consider that? My understanding is that the Prime games are "somewhat separate", so I wasn't going to obligate myself to them for this core narrative experience, but I mean... that fan game is literally right there. Ah, decisions, decisions...

This style is surprisingly tough to make alt colour variants for.

Don't forget to eat & sleep.

I was the impression there was either prime taking place earlier and fusion later or two timeline, with the 2D more or less being one timeline and the 3D being another

Brellom

I believe the general consensus is that much of the Prime games occur between 1 and 2, but are sort of a semi alternate continuity of uncertainty.

You considering the official remake of Metroid 2 on the 3DS?

Brellom

I'm considering AM2R. I'd like the original's ambient soundtrack (which is not present in AMR2) but a remake would be more consistent with the rest of the games. As for 1, I'm considering Metroid Planets. Both are technically fan-games, but are a bit more accessible.

LoreNut_Nor

Quite so. If you do Dread it could be good to revisit the Remake first perhaps? They lead into each other more (not chronologically fusion still happens first, but the events are tied together.

I can't speak much on the franchise, myself; I played Super as a wee sprat but I barely remember it. I did play Fusion at just the right age to get impressionable'd by it, and more recently Dread, but that's basically it. That said, I definitely enjoyed those two. Also, bwuh~ :3c

For what it's worth, I LOVE Metroid, especially 2D Metroid. Beyond hyped for the new one.

My first Metroid Game was Dread and that was almost 5 years ago. I simply fell in love with everything about the game; the setting, the atmosphere, the exploration and the mechanics. Even though I died a lot in that game, it was fun being able to get further and further into the game, the better I became at the game. After beating it, I decided that I would play Fusion next, but I've been playing other games during these 5 years. I'm most likely going to get back into it by either replaying Metroid Dread when the 5th anniversary comes rolling around in the next few weeks or immediately play it. I think you'll have a lot of fun if you do get around to playing Dread or any of the other Metroid 2D games, Brell. :3c

I've yet to play it. Only saw my friend play metroid prime on gamecube

Tony Veron

That is the official story

2D Metroid is so so much fun. Fusion is by far the most hand holding and on rails tho

Brellom

Considering the games after Metroid 1 rely more on "locks and keys" in a world limited by side-scrolling, its already somewhat on-rails by comparison, outside of getting lost or sequence breaking (which doesn't appeal to me - especially for a first playthrough), that might actually be a virtue! Especially since a tighter gameplay environment lets the developers control the atmosphere and set pieces a bit more.

Tony Veron

Super Metroid let's you sequence break without even knowing you're doing it, it's a good bit more open than you'll realize. The title sequence teaches you to bomb jump which can get upgrades early. I'm absolutely certain I did some bosses out of order in Dread too. But yeah Metroid 1 (and maybe 2 idk) are very on rails outside of getting lost

Brell I could smooch you (consentually), these are fantastic!!
