@@kennypowers1945 Metroid Dread has been a thing since about 2005. It got canceled, and then development restarted later on but was canceled again. Now it's finally complete and released and has become my favorite Metroid game. It's everything I could've ever wanted, and I've been following it since I originally heard about it a over a decade ago.
@@laylover7621 It’s so good! It’s like unbelievable that this game came from the same universe as Federation force and other M. It’s like an alternate universe where Metroid never stopped being good.
What I love about this game is it just gives off the vibe a video game should. Their is no super drawn out intro where Samus makes some dramatic entrance on screen, you don't get ANY notion from the meta reaction to this game. Their is no "awww yeah the long awaited return of Samus is FINALLY HAPPENING!" sort of moment. It's just another business as usual kind of game. It reminds me of those GameCube classics like TTYD and Sunshine where the game is just being another quality game in the series it is a part of. No fanfare about it, it's just not a big deal, it just is. The game just IS.
It’s respectful that this memorable theme fits Quiet Robe. The very first time I heard it, I recalled Super Metroid. My theory is that the tune symbolizes very wise and kind Chozo like Grey Voice who took care of Samus since her childhood 😇
It’s a theme for samus as well. Brinstar was one of the only areas of Zebes Samus could venture before getting her suit. And since crateria is kinda a stormy mess, she probably spent many happy years with her adoptive people in that subterranean jungle
Samus finally meets the first friendly Chozo since Old Bird and Grey Voice, and he dies within a few minutes...this track really added a lot of weight to the cutscene.
@@tristama_youtube Because Samus didnt find a single Chozo since she was a kid! ... They are all gone! ... And now there were 2 survivors... The first one (the good one) got shot down after minutes and the second one was her "father" who gave her the Chozo DNA but he only used her to gain power! ... What a psychopath... I was so pissed after Robe got killed ... i was like "Are you fucking serious? Finally she found a Chozo and and died after minutes?" ...
THEY BROUHGT IT BACK AGAIN!!! YESS!!! this track never gets old (despite being spoiled knowing this music is back, is even more amazing the part that it starts playing)
@@venar4248 Burneria music is fucking sick and it fits the area better, would fit better in Hanubia and it still has the water theme. I just realized this game has like 2.5 water levels
After so many remakes and reimagining's of this track I wasn't sure how they would bring something new to it but they deffs incorporated more layers of instrumentation without changing the original composition. Overall a great modern rendition that retains all the energy of the original
Seeing Samus speak with a member of the race that saved her and raised her in their own native language somehow says more about Metroid lore and Samus's past and character than whatever happened in Other M tbh
Other M was just atrocious characterization. Samus may have been like she was in other M during the start of her career, but no way in hell would she be like that after all these games and after facing down Ridley countless times
@@klawschafer7425 That's exactly what I've been saying. If Other M had been at the start of the timeline, that moment with Ridley would've been perfect since it would be her first time encountering him after he killed her parents. It would actually make Samus's character grow even more as she starts out completely paralyzed at the sight of Ridley, but then overcomes her fear and stands against him multiple times over the course of the timeline.
Other M was basically Samus going through deep deep PTSD. Fortunately by Fusion she was back to being her normal self. And in this? She’s fully realized as the hero she always has been.
During that cutscene with the chozo, I had chills when I heard this. I was so happy I played through the entire game w my headphones, bless Nintendo for the bluetooth update
A solemn yet reassuring theme. After hours of struggle in unknown territories, this familiar tune gives you a breath of fresh air. the air is still somber, but you're safe. For now.
To think we live in a world that not only do we have sequel to a 2D Metroid game, but its Dread. On top of that, its becoming on of the most celebrated Nintendo games with raving review from everyone. This brings great joy to me, knowing that Metroid is getting the respect it deserves after so many years. Good on everyone that worked on this game! Also, some of the music in this game is phenomenal. Thank you for the uploads!
As I play this game I just went through this part, tears dropped from my eyes as I listened to the chozo and looked at the flashbacks, I knew they were going to remake lower brinstar once more, this is without a doubt the best theme in the Metroid franchise, so beautiful and peaceful, I screamed when I heard th
Man, even though I'm a huge Nintendo fan I was never into Metroid, when they announced Dread on E3 it took my interest and I played Zero Mission, Fusion and Super Metroid, this third one being the one I most played out of the three and it's soundtrack got stuck in my head, it's so good, one of the main songs was this and when I heard this in Dread I was like: Damn what a short but fun ride/series, there's the Prime series but it probably ain't the same as 2D. I'm not really into Metroidvanias in general but there is something in this series that is just different.
It’s not the same. I genuine enjoy 2D because the different aspect it brings. I also enjoy the Prime Saga for the same reason. It’s the latest remakes and installments of 2D Metroid- I’d go as far as say Other M, Samus is portrayed as a speedster and a fucking bad ass. 3D Metroid lacks that fast and agile gameplay.
@@cheesesteak983 I’m not. I love Echoes ❤️ I own all 3 prime games. I’m Js I prefer 2D because she’s much faster and more bad ass. Of course that’s with the newer ones.
I really like the fact that Metroid dread doesn't remix every freaking track from the old games and instead game up with new ones. They only did it when it was really needed, like this cutscene, and that gave the event so much weight!
This makes me realize how much I want a Super Metroid remake. The game feels old now and if they keep the sequence breaks at least somehow similar to how they did in Dread, then I would love it.
I’d only want a super Metroid remake if they keep it the same as it was before. Just update the map a bit, throw a few of the new power ups in, but keep the open ended design intact.
@@anenemystand5582 i’m just thinking about the smooth movement from dread being in super Metroid. A remake wouldn’t destroy the legacy of it since like you said super Metroid itself is very accessible. But when I imagine super Metroid with the movement fluidity of dread it makes me wish for a super Metroid remake on the same engine as dread. Implementing glitches like the mock ball as mechanics would be super interesting too.
@@USZDF see here is what I wonder. I'm very casually into metroid. But if your a speedrunner or some other much more niche player of metroid, would changing the controls even to make them smoother in some sense mess up such play? Also would it actively make the game easier just considering the game was balanced around that more jank control scheme. Anyway, it's not as if I'd be upset with a super metroid remake. I'd just prefer more new stuff. I mean, we just came out of a long era of metroid remakes. I don't want more remakes I want new worlds to explore.
This is one of those themes which no matter how many times it is remixed, I can love every single one. Plus it's used very, very obscurely which doesn't ruin the magic of the song.
My jaw was to the floor this whole cutscene, all of them made me do that! Samus is so badass in this game I was cheering out loud at some of the stuff this woman was doing 😍🙌
This game was, hands down, the best game I have bought in years. I haven't played a game that has hooked me start to finish like this one since Breath of the wild and before that it was Metroid Fusion itself. I enjoyed every second of Dread. Every puzzle, every difficulty and every anger-inducing boss fight was worth it for the pure enjoyment I got playing through to 100% completion.
Considering the Chozo are pretty obviously inspired by Indigenous peoples and cultures (even with the sci-fi twist), it was one hell of a great decision to remix this theme with tribal and "earthy" instrumentals for that one part I won't spoil
The goosebumps i felt when this played on such an impactful scene Incredible job to the composer, i haven’t even finished the game yet but I had to stop and look for this rearrangement because of how good it is
This song was the only spoiler I got pre-release. I was a little mad at first, but now I’m grateful I didn’t get the scene itself spoiled. Hearing her speak in the Chozo tongue was just wonderful.
this is LITERALLY the best song in the game bar none cuz the rest of the music is just ambient sounds 😭 it was a very pleasant treat to hear at least one og song made it in tho! :)
I'm really glad that, while the game itself has a wholly original soundtrack (that still follows the philosophy of Hirokazu Tanaka), they still include a few staples like this theme.
So smart to put this during a pivotal story moment rather than some other area. I appreciated how basically all of the old music that was remade was relegated to cutscenes and not areas, it really helps the story beats feel connected to the past games while allowing the new areas feel completely foreign by having all new music. It was very special to hear this in game, and Dread was a really special game all around.
I like that they brought this back, but I also like that they didn't just randomly shove it into an area to cash in on nostalgia. It actually is really cool the one time it plays.
Cashing in on nostalgia was the one thing I was worried about, especially since Samus Returns was filled with it. Metroid was never a series about throwing nostalgic things at the player. It was always advancing and growing. I'm so glad that Mercury Steam proved me wrong by showing an *immense* amount of restraint and respect for the series by evolving it, but appropriately paying homage to the series' past when it was actually relevant in game.
Granted, Samus Returns was a remake, so it made sense to reuse familiar tunes, but they were definitely playing it safe back then. The fanfares in particular were pulled straight from Prime, weren't they? And Lower Norfair was THE theme of ultra-heated areas.
@@SparkpadArt Yeah, I hated Lower Norfair in SR (it already wore on me after backtracking so much through Magmoor in Prime 1), and i don't really like the intro song from Super Metroid being reused for every game from now on, but I don't mind remixing the fanfares and item room theme for every game, since they're tied to mechanics that have the same context across multiple games regardless of area, like Sonic's drowning music or the Final Fantasy victory jingle, and they don't play in full areas of the map, only a few rooms here and there or when you get an item.
The fanfares are fine, but I prefer when they're rearranged for each game, or at least each system. Gives them a sense of identity. Samus Returns didn't have that, which is especially jarring when the original Metroid 2 had a different key for the item sound and a completely different Samus intro.
everybody always says norfair's theme is the most iconic song in the series, but to me this will always be THE metroid song. it perfectly encapsulates the vibe of the series, being alone on a weird alien planet.
"He worships at the alter power," That line goes so hard, especially since it's spoken while the image of Raven Beak and the other Mawlin Chozo stand over the bodies of the Thoha tribe they just massacred. This music goes along so well with the whole scene. It's perfect for Chozo lore.
@@Kid_Ying I just got to the part in the game where this plays. I’m so glad it’s not an area theme, it was perfect for what it was. Idk why I complained. It’s an amazing song.
While that’s true, I think this game uses lower brinstar in a much more interesting way then some of the other remixes, regardless tho who doesn’t love lower brinstar haha
I really just wish you could hear this in an area of the game instead of one time in a cutscene. It's so good it's a shame it only plays once. It's also my favorite theme in the series.
Hi shit I was so focused on absorbing the lore that I didn’t even notice this track in the background. This is one of my favorite songs from the franchise and this version really does it justice.
I’m glad they used the Samus Returns remix as the basis for this remix. That one is by far the best version of this song so far (yes, better than Torvus Catacombs) - but they’re all so amazing. Goes to show how good this song is!
Imagine ridley’s lair/hideout in this game would be so nice tbh. And even a fight against Ridley or something that it’s looks like him would be very cool

I like that they brought this back, but I also like that they didn't just randomly shove it into an area to cash in on nostalgia. It actually is really cool the one time it plays.
It's got the right amount of nostalgia, in a context that carries the weight to justify it.
Cashing in on nostalgia was the one thing I was worried about, especially since Samus Returns was filled with it. Metroid was never a series about throwing nostalgic things at the player. It was always advancing and growing.
I'm so glad that Mercury Steam proved me wrong by showing an *immense* amount of restraint and respect for the series by evolving it, but appropriately paying homage to the series' past when it was actually relevant in game.
Granted, Samus Returns was a remake, so it made sense to reuse familiar tunes, but they were definitely playing it safe back then. The fanfares in particular were pulled straight from Prime, weren't they? And Lower Norfair was THE theme of ultra-heated areas.
@@SparkpadArt Yeah, I hated Lower Norfair in SR (it already wore on me after backtracking so much through Magmoor in Prime 1), and i don't really like the intro song from Super Metroid being reused for every game from now on, but I don't mind remixing the fanfares and item room theme for every game, since they're tied to mechanics that have the same context across multiple games regardless of area, like Sonic's drowning music or the Final Fantasy victory jingle, and they don't play in full areas of the map, only a few rooms here and there or when you get an item.
The fanfares are fine, but I prefer when they're rearranged for each game, or at least each system. Gives them a sense of identity. Samus Returns didn't have that, which is especially jarring when the original Metroid 2 had a different key for the item sound and a completely different Samus intro.
everybody always says norfair's theme is the most iconic song in the series, but to me this will always be THE metroid song. it perfectly encapsulates the vibe of the series, being alone on a weird alien planet.
I'm so glad that I played Super Metroid a month prior of this game's release.
What a song... it's a pleassure seeing that it continues appearing in Metroid games. Loved it since Super Metroid.
Mann just go to this part legit made me cry i love this theme man i always have ever since super metriod
Pure joy, seriously. This scene was just joy.
I will admit I had to cry as soon as this started playing. It was like coming home. What a beautiful point in the story.
it is a good time to be a Metroid Fan
My favorite piece of Metroid music
I was overcome with emotion when I first realized what it was during Quiet Robe's story
"He worships at the alter power,"
That line goes so hard, especially since it's spoken while the image of Raven Beak and the other Mawlin Chozo stand over the bodies of the Thoha tribe they just massacred. This music goes along so well with the whole scene. It's perfect for Chozo lore.
I just adore the little detail of adding the jingle of the Chozo ceremonial robes to the beat of the music.
I love lower brinstar, but it seems like this and lower Norfair get remixed in every game.
EDIT: I changed my mind. This is amazing in every way.
For good reason.
@@Kid_Ying I just got to the part in the game where this plays. I’m so glad it’s not an area theme, it was perfect for what it was. Idk why I complained. It’s an amazing song.
While that’s true, I think this game uses lower brinstar in a much more interesting way then some of the other remixes, regardless tho who doesn’t love lower brinstar haha
@@deatsbybre7162 Got there last night. Really good stuff.
@@Kid_Ying Agreed. It’s probably jarring as shit for newcomers to just get to a lore dump like that though. That part was clearly there for the fans.
This scene made me fucking cry dude. I love Metroid
One of the best moment of the game.
God, when I heard Samus speak in this game, I cried joy.
This scene was utterly amazing
Biggest chills when I heard this
I really just wish you could hear this in an area of the game instead of one time in a cutscene. It's so good it's a shame it only plays once. It's also my favorite theme in the series.
I think this might be my favorite piece of music of all time.
"Sebulba" -Quiet Robe
Hi shit I was so focused on absorbing the lore that I didn’t even notice this track in the background. This is one of my favorite songs from the franchise and this version really does it justice.
The scene when this song plays made me shed a tear, it was so well made, a stellar metroid moment.
Loved it in Super Metroid.
Loved it IMMENSELY in Echoes.
And I still love it to this day in Dread.
Oh my, i was searching for this, IT'S SO EPIC.
This game really surprised me, it basically proved to me, a metroid fan, that Nintendo still has it, they dident forget how to make a metroid game
This game is truly a love letter to this franchise, the amount of work they put into this is insane!
Meanwhile Back to metroid prime 2 underwater level trying get the Gravity boost with this song is lit!
Never gets old.
Master piece ❤
My favorite song in Super Metroid has returned!
I don't know why I got tearful when Samus spoke, but I did, and that's ok.
What a great take on my favorite Metroid track.
This theme has now officially become the Chozo theme! Also I feel like Super Metroid using this version of Red Brinstar would fit perfectly.
I’m glad they used the Samus Returns remix as the basis for this remix. That one is by far the best version of this song so far (yes, better than Torvus Catacombs) - but they’re all so amazing. Goes to show how good this song is!
the whole cutscene gave me chills. especially when i instantly recognized this theme.
Fucken goosebumps. Dread might be over but I know nintendo is making sure prime 4 is gonna be INSANE
Thank you so much for the video!
I love this song :')
Imagine ridley’s lair/hideout in this game would be so nice tbh.
And even a fight against Ridley or something that it’s looks like him would be very cool
So glad they brought back my favourite track in the series.
