found the channel from the fma 03 video and im a big fan of ur other videos too now. even if you don't have a big view count on your videos just yet, i hope you keep at it!
Really enjoyed this video! I'm a big fan of Metroid 1 and love revisiting it, it's one of my favorites in the series. In my mind it can make the case for why offloading certain tasks onto the game vs asking the player to do it themself (in this case, navigation, with or without an in-game map) is actually a game design decision and not a matter of quality of life.
no game in the series has metroids as scary as the original. when I played all 2D titles in release order I kept getting disappointed by how easy to deal with the versions were lol
for me personally respawing with 30 health is a death blow because it means every failure was followed by an unskipable 5-10 min cutscene, unless your willing to run a gauntlet without getting hit (which is less fun than the grinding). i couldn't enjoy exploring the world because the only thing on my mind was the meaningless grind that would await me if i failed. i feel like this is something that could have easily been fixed too, like how the fairy fountain near the start of zelda 1 made that games respawn penalty not sting so hard.
I enjoyed the video but it was a bit strange as more of a rebuttal video rather than talking about the aspects you enjoyed. It also feels a bit hollow as most of the points you were defending were addressed by the developers in subsequent games. Super Metroid went out of it’s way to make areas distinct, have you a map, removed the need to farm health pickups, etc etc

its inconvience that creates gameplay is a stinky takeaway
No, you absolutely should. Skip Metroid 1. It does not hold up even the slightest.
FF7 disc spotted next video confirmed!?
