I still recall reading a log in Metroid Prime where the Space Pirates were attempting to imitate the Morph Ball. Many bones were crushed.
Kinda flies in the face of Metroid Prime Hunters, where every bounty hunter has a morph ball mode
@@IzzySarru The other hunters all have a morph ball equivalent -- a mode where they are smaller and more nimble, but they don't actually have a morph ball. Only Samus has that.
Science team wisely moved on.
Awesome. RoboCop 2 style tragic.
It's simple, Samus has very malleable bones due to her chozo DNA infusion. I'm guessing that since the chozo are bird people their bones are hollow and highly bendable.
“Yeah, what does happen when Samus turns into a ball? I need to know for reasons” : - Totally not a Space Pirate guy.
Hahaha I love that lore entry from Metroid Prime where the pirates are talking about their failed morph ball experiments
solid Prime reference.
well in prime we see her turn into energy wit hthe ball keeping it contained
She’s flexible. Ponderously flexible.
I have a theory she straight is insanely flexible due to her Schozo Genetic Enhancements and basically can see her own butthole on a whim when out of the suit or clothes.
"If your ancient enough to remember the TV show Full House."
Why do I feel called out?
everywhere you looook, everywhere you gooo
You got it dude.
and I am only 21
You are not alone
especially since I hated it lol
5:29 Yeah, Metroid Prime showed us -- she's converted into pure energy and the Morph Ball's shell forms around her.
Also pretty sure game theory did an episode on this, and turns out the ball is much more voluminous that you'd think, to the point that a person of Samus' stature and fitness could easily fit inside with room to move around.
People, especially contortionists, have fit into tighter 'packages'. Think: suitcase.
That's what Prime shows but it's more believable that she fits in there. Prime lore says that morph ball passages are about 1m in height, so the morph ball is about 1m in diameter, a normal person can roll into that shape. At the same time, Zero Mission has Chozo lore that says rolling into a ball was a physical ability the Chozo developed, and since the DNA transfusion gave Samus many physical attributes of the chozo, her gaining the flexibility to roll into a ball is really believable. She rolls herself up and controls the movement of the ball through the suit.
I recall it being called The Meditation Morph Ball at some point; turns the user into energy so they can meditate on something without their nose itching.
@@heehee1661 1m?? Ok, but why don't she just crawl through those passages?
@@javierandresgalazjeria9428 Well, it'd just be awkward and slow to crawl down a tube like that, and some spaces can't realistically be crawled through.
Joke's on you, I never had good action game reflexes, even as a kid.
Yeah. same. but due to only being around people with even worse action game reflexes than me, I was convinced I was amazing. One of the downsides of the internet., realizing how much you suck at something you thought you were good at.
My brother is sooooooo much better than me at any video game.
Boy does that make me mad!!!!
Sorry to hear that , I kinda felt the same a while ago when playing Street Fighter 2 at higher difficulties . My reflexes become rusty , lol
i am just glad that even at 41, i can still play and beat a metroid game while having fun, brought back swee memories of the younger me playing it on the OG GAMEBOY!
A few years older here and feeling the same, brother.
I'm 38 and just watching it is bringing me out in panic sweats lol
Almost 40 myself. Cleared it on normal and hard. The bosses weren't too bad, but hoo boy did I struggle with those chozo robot soldiers. Definitely not as fast as I used to be, but I've still got it. Really enjoyed this game!
I feel at my prime at 40. Placed the highest ever on a bodybuilding competition. feels were to read peoole saying stuff like this
Sweeee memories, from the corners of my mind
4:39
Samus rage quiting her own game got me!🤣
@Brandon Quist Do you know that you can kill that boss with a shinespark?
In her defense, she only has one hand. Which I guess is like trying to play Samus Returns with 2 😂
Its true, all of it.
And then you start a second file and play through again, and. suddenly the freaking boss you lost to a dozen times? Now you show them the meaning of pain as you casually wipe the floor with them without taking a hit. So satisfying.
I started a hard mode run and dunked corpus like a chump. It wasn't even fair
Sequence-break to get the screw attack before the storm missiles and Escue gets bodied like Robotnik in Sonic 1. It's not even fair, just fun.
@@sluttyMapleSyrup true
The description of the boss fights is 100% accurate. They're so stressful but so rewarding when you finally kill them
Man, wasting all that time on Expirment Z-57 only to find out I heals itself in the one attack you thought you were supposed to just run
@@Zeldinion wait, it heals itself? Well that explains some things
Sounds like they took some inspiration from Soulsborne games.
@@ManateeMentality I mean, hard bosses weren't invented by the souls games but I see where you're coming from
@@ManateeMentality ever heard of nes or snes? Almost all games were like this back then. It's just that modern games suck and only soulsbourne games keep the tradition
"Destroyed by velocity and a wall"
🤣🤣🤣 gonna use that one!
My switch stays docked so I'm more at risk of tossing my Pro controller instead. I'll be dammed if I damage a 300 dollar handheld over a video game.
@@jpowers55 very possible to throw the controller at the damn port.
That one cracked me up
"Take an entire energy tanks' worth of damage as you get bodied over and over again..." 👏👏👏 😆
Actually even more. 1 energy tank is 99hp. I had 2 tanks and 87 hp with gravity suit (that already reduces damage a lot, by its description) and boss 1 shotted me. On normal mode.
Dont play hardmode you have been worn
Yeah the health bar is just a pretty decal on hard mode it doesn't actually do anything
@@rumotu The Final Boss's brutal charge that smashes you into a wall that you should REALLY be parrying?
Just got through the second to last boss on hard. One hit was doing about 400+. Good times. Ofc on try 6 I manage to go perfect and take no damage so yeah, who needs energy tanks anyway.
Maybe the real Metroids were the friends we made along the way.
And killed.
*THUH BAYBEEs we met along the way
THE BABY
No, it's Samus herself.
You are a Metroid
Meanwhile F-Zero remains in the Nintendo graveyard between an official Earthbound 2 localization and Waluigi's hopes and dreams
Oh, my heart.. it hurts.
👏🤣
Throw Kid Icarus in there, too. I'm sure Pit is confused and terrified!
punch out and pikmin are also looking to go there soon since the latest punch out game was on the wii and there hasn't actually been a new, real pikmin game in years
@@dazcarrr I know people don't like Hey! Pikmin and don't count Pikmin -GrOw- Bloom because it's a mobile game but they exist regardless.
“And progress the storyline, which at this point, doesn’t have any metroids anymore.”
Yeah……about that…..
Fake news
*Doomslayer-esque sounds intensify*
Should i tell em, or you?
@@Smokey1419 No...no...let them find out...it's funnier that way.
@@theoddronin1 SPOILERS I mean... samus been a metorid since Fusion.....
I can't believe that Honest Game Trailers has gone on for THIS LONG, and you've never did a trailer for the Kirby franchise! Let's see a trailer for Nintendo's resident cannibal!
Yep. Kirby, Dragon Age, Civilization... These guys gotta stop chasing the latest title.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha...!!
"Nintendo's cannibal".
xD xD xD
They'll do a trailer for Kirby's Post-apocalypse Seattle Adventure, I'm sure
I’ve always wanted Kirby Superstar.
I do love some Kirby
Golden quote: "by accurately capturing how it feels like to be run down by f**** Terminator" 😅 Excellent one, team, replayed multiple times while ROFLing 🤣
Even after four playthroughs getting noticed by those things puts the fear of God in me 😆
@@sluttyMapleSyrup picked up the game again yesterday to stream it to some friends on discord and the “beep beep boop beep beep” gave me ‘nam flashbacks and my friends roasted me until they seen it chase me to the ends of the earth haha
This one was _brilliant._ I laughed very heartily out loud at the "decrepit middle aged brain" bit as it hit way too close to home after coming from left field.
Man, you nailed it. I'm 35 and you hit on every experience I had playing through this game
Thanks, great video.
Many thanks for not giving away any major plot details about the ending! I'm not quite finished with it yet (lots of backtracking, lol) but wanted to watch anyway for a few chuckles.
Oh man same. I'd say I'm slightly over halfway through the main game.
Basic game for basic gamers.
All you have to know is that the phrase "nothing about metroid anymore" is kind of out of place ;D just reach the end xD
Plot?
Trust me, they missed an obvious spoiler-joke. You'll learn what I mean later.
It's actually explained in the old comics. Her armor has the ability to turn physical objects into pure energy and vice versa. That's where all the missiles are stored, and Samus is likely turned into that energy while her suit is in morphball form
Me, being close to 50 years old and being with Metroid since it's inception, I can 100% accurately say that Honest Game Trailers can read my mind, therefore, must be the Illuminati!!! Great job guys! It's like they know me!!!
Didnyou beat it yet because that ending was ahhhhhhhhh ^^
"Skeksis in spaaaace!" That really got me laughing!
Same here, kinda wanna watch Dark Crystal again now lol
True, nice to see a Dark Crystal reference. They are very rare.
@@Nekomancer1983 The prophecy didn't say anything about this!! :P
Those E.M.M.I encounters were one of the most intense sessions I've had in gaming this year.
Please say "Wow, I can't believe we haven't done an Honest Trailer for Dragon Age yet." Then please do an actual Honest Trailer for Dragon Age.
lol, end of the vid o.o
Make an honest trailer on Mind Jack
Do an Honest Game Trailer for Transformers: War For Cybertron and Transformers: Fall Of Cybertron.
Throw in Rise of the Dark Spark too...
Show of hands, who actually understood the "Skeksis in Space' reference? that made me smile... Then it made me hate myself because I did get that reference (from when it was originally released)
Seemed like dark crystal and the muppets segment called pigs in space
@@FoxUnitNell still bums me out, a Henson company Metroid film still has not happened. It would be epic
@@kadosho02 Yeah, all Nintendo needs to do is just ring up Brian Henson and ask him to make a Farscape-like Metroid movie.
@@Popcultureguy3000 it would be epic, I never give up hoping it is possible
If you want to see Skeksis in space, watch the Farscape episode, "Out of Their Minds"
"If you're ancient enough to remember the TV show Full House, but will crush your spirits entirely when the parry mechanic pops up, and your now decrepit middle aged brain is too slow to react"
Me at 34: Listen that's not...alright fair.
im 25 and i feel called out XD
Hey, I picked up DMC at _30_ and I'm managing pretty well. Practice can overcome that sort of slowdown, just keep at it.
I'm old enough that I watched the Munsters when it aired on Nick at Night. I'm also old enough that I owned a NES and Metroid... man I'm old...
Practice can teach you to parry everything but the EMMIs. They seem deliberately unfair, and the only reliable way I could parry them is to not get caught in the first place.
With everything else, this is the rare hard game where you feel your skills progress with each boss attempt. That and generous checkpoints helps keep the frustration in check.
Yeah, it took me like an entire playthrough or two to really get the parry down.
1:10
hey, that's not true.
She lost her toys AFTER the shipwreck this time
to be even more accurate, she didn't actually wreck her ship....this time.
@@knuckles543
actually, come to think of it, she usually doesn't. Usually she just can't leave until the job is done
Don't call this game "metroidvania?" Aw, man. Now I absolutely MUST call it metroidvania!
"But don't you DARE call it a Metroidvania! I will personally come to your house and slap you in the mouth!"
yes, we will
What's wrong with calling it a metroidvania anyway?
@@ZenoDLC The best logic that I have heard for why not calling a Metroidvania game a Metroidvania game is that the young might not know what a Metroid or Castlevania game is. They often prefer bland and uninteresting description for the genre as “Platform-Adventure”. However to me, Metroidvania describes the genre and awards honor to the most famous members of the genre: Metroid and Castlevania. So Metroidvania Forever!
The reason is because the genre is named after it so the name should say enough. It's like calling Rogue a roguelike. It makes no sense.
The Vania part is extremely important. Samus doesn't have heavy customization, non-necessary upgrades, and RPG based mechanics and narrative. Which new-age Castlevania games like Symphony of The Night being the progenitor started.
So it'd be like calling Doom a Doom-Life when Doom has no sci fi thriller elements, right down to Doomguy/slayer shoving and punching the exposition.
@@countofarcadia The reason is more that you don't call Rogue a roguelike, and you don't call Dark Souls a soulslike game. The term is there to compare other games with the original inspiration.
But for the larger point though, the reason games like roguelike and Metroidvania sometimes get pushbacks is that it forever puts the original games on a pedestal. For example all Metroidvania games are forever compared to Metroid / Castlevania, and it could limit what we could think of as valid games in the genre and limits innovations. For example, if we just called all FPS games as "Doomlike", then it would be kind of weird because the genre had since evolved to be much richer and varied than just the original Doom. It would be weird if all new FPS games still have to compared to the original Doom. I think we see this problem with "soulslike" games sometimes because it's still a new thing and there are a lot of confusions as to what actually constitutes a soulslike game other than "it plays like Dark Souls". But then it's not like we have found good names for roguelike, Metroidvania, etc, so that's the term we still use.
“Velocity and a wall” lol amazing
"And progress the storyline which at this point doesn't even really have metroids in it anymore".
Well, there is still one.
We only need one
Samus: The Metroids are gone?
Fine... I'll do it myself.
*AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*
Next, Zelda will become the hero of time.
First game: "Whaaat? Metroid is a girl?"
Latest game: "Whaaat? Girl is a Metroid?"
The Last Metroid isn't in captivity.
The Galaxy is at peace.
"Put your blaster into every hole" Amazing.
"Which doesn't even really have metroids in it anymore"
hahhahahahahhahah... yeah.. about that.
sssssh!
"Until you lose 10 minutes of progress"
You literally respawn in the room before the one you died xD
Well that's a shift from the older titles.
@@austinpatterson7212 maybe hardmode, makes it like that
Original Metroid sent you all the way back to the start every time didnt it?
@@jemiebridges3197 yeah but it gave youa code to start at a elevator
@@pnguinkillr3091 But no map until the third title, so I was lost half the time on 1 and 2.
4:02 funnily enough "an entire energy tank" is an understatement
I'm 37, still nailing quick time events. also, the game had perfect map hints and directional flow if you were paying attention, and have experience playing enough similar games. i only had to fumble around like once.
38 here, and the only brain fart I had while playing was the gap in the water where you get the spin jump. The item said you couldn't gain height while in water, so I took way too long to realize it still worked as a long jump. Didn't make the same mistake twice once I got the space jump.
bro my dad is 50 and i swear he can nail the emmi parry more than i can and im 24
The biggest hints were the blue fireflies. You see them you know you're on the right track.
You didn't call Samus: Metroid. HUGE missed opportunity there.
SPAMus Gun-hand is too good to pass up.
@@flashrogue4376 Well I will admit it is funny.
What if metroid was a grill?
@@skillcollector9800 I mean...
What's interesting is that you don't really need to do much backtracking at all in this game unless you want to. It's not even close to previous Metroid games.
Of course, it's not that obvious, so I did plenty of backtracking and getting lost and hating myself just like I did with previous Metroid games.
thats the beauty of it , metroid parime use to give me headaches, after and hour of looking were to go
That’s one of the things I found frustrating about it. It’s too linear, there’s not enough opportunities to use your new items to go back and do stuff you couldn’t before, you basically just forge ahead and get forced back to where you need to be to progress.
"Marooned once again on a planet with no Z-axis"
10/10
Just do Dragon Age so I can start asking for Oblivion again.
Gotta play this I miss the Metroid series so much
Theres a demo on the Switch EShop currently
bro you are missing out. such a great game! either as good as super or maybe better (im on the better end but thats just cause i dont really like super controls. i grew up with fusion)
I'm working but I really want to play metroid right now. I can't stop thinking about metroid since I finished the whole game, that ending was so good.
You nailed the feelings one goes through when avoiding an E.M.M.I
Now do a Honest Trailer for Hyperdimension Neptunia
**IMMEDIATELY SEARCHES FOR VIDS OF PROFESSIONAL TAG**
It's real, with real Soccer-style "injuries," too.
This game really makes you feel like Metroid.
Would you kindly make an Honest Game Trailer for Bioshock Infinite?
I see what you did there... sneaky ;)
3/4 of the way through this game and I can confirm without a doubt this trailer is 100% accurate. I laughed a lot.
According to the Metroid Prime games which show her morph in full effect, Samus reverts her body back to the life energy everything is composed of in Metroid games, and what the titular Metroids suck out of their prey. Samus’ suit simply transforms into the Morph Ball form, just like a Bakugan
i can't believe metroid was bakugan this entire time
"Boston Dynamics' GLaDOS"
Absolutely killed me 🤣
The level of enjoyment your derive from beginning to end in the game looks like a perfect bell curve.
I'm one of those old heads he was talking about. I know the limits of my hand eye reflexes. This game would demolish me.
It's really not that bad.
Metroid Dread is my first Metroid game (though I've played as Samus a lot in Smash and the Metroid parts were my favorite part of Melee's Adventure Mode) and 'm absolutely loving it. Really hope the Metroid Prime Trilogy gets a Switch remaster.
"middle aged brain is too slow to react" that cut deep.
4:08 I love how this could be talking about dark souls
Amen 🤣
Never owned a Nintendo console but this game looks so enjoyable that I just might get a Switch later on. Great Honest Trailer again guys!
Metroid Dread, Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey, and Luigi's Mansion 3 make getting a Switch worthwhile on their own, and those are just the major Nintendo titles.
EDIT: for non-Nintendo titles: Crash, Spyro, Lucky, Starlink, Shantae, and Shovel Knight. You can also get titles for more mature gaming like the Bioshock and Borderland collections, Doom, Wolfenstein, and both South Park games (stick of truth and fractured but whole)
@@CouchSpud91 you don't even mention smash bros
For what is worth they are trivially easy to emulate, too.
Metroid Dread at 1440p and 165 fps on Yuzu is a treat.
For Jovita Moore of WSB-TV, say "An exclusive police dashcam video about a highspeed chase."
About the morph ball, one of the metroid prime explains, she becomes some sort of energy while on this form. It also mentions how one of the space pirates attempted to also use the morph ball and just died crushed.
"Boston Dynamics Glados" ...DON'T GIVE THEM IDEAS!!!! xD
It's been years since he last time I played a Metroid game, not to mention 2D platformers in general, so playing Dread was like relearning how to walk after playing pretty nothing but MOBAs and FPS games for the last decade. Kid me would have probably beaten it much easier.
I'd been playing AM2R a couple months prior to this (as my first Metroid game), and kinda learned what to expect, still getting my butt kicked a lot, but I understand why and slowly learn how to fumble my way threw, it's more fun than I ever would have expected honestly
I played Samus Returns on 3DS when it came out which has similar gameplay mechanics and still getting my butt kicked in this game. So satisfying to finally have a hard metroid game.
Moba and fps? Damn you've hit the third rock bottom
Please say, "Kraid was hesitating, but Samus was set to fight! She got into a battle stance that made her butt look super tight!"
Oh, and an Honest Trailer for Back 4 Blood.
Until she actually sees that it's just Kraid, and instantly relaxes.
@@BaufenBeast “Oh Kraid, it’s just you. I thought it was somebody important.”
One of the funniest one of these I've seen so far this was good man
Thank you for doing my comment in the last video!!!!
Now to continue the stringed saga:
“Cellos are too up in your face. I only play string bass.”
Dread was fantastic and I loved the absolute hell out of it. Even hard mode was fun. As for the morph ball...what I think is happening based on what it looks like is that some crazy Chozo space magic tech is condensing her into a literal sphere of living energy wrapped in an armored shell. There's an entry somewhere in the first Metroid Prime (I think it was the first) that talks about the space pirates reverse engineering most of her weaponry but when it came to the morph ball it just ended up with a bunch of subjects being, well, mangled. So yeah, it's probably some crazy Chozo stuff going on considering they built her suit in the first place and even without her in it turning that into a ball would still be impressive mechanically.
I actually am proud to say I beat ALL of Metroid Dread without EVER going online to seek help.
Same
4:34 that cutaway gag had me ROLLING😂🤣🤣
Well, now that you've included the scene in the Dread trailer, you simply must say, "You are faced with overwhelming power. Accept your helplessness."
Now that the final DLC is out please do a HT for Hyrule Warriors Age of Calamity.
You talked about the franchise being dormant as if Samus Returns wasn't released just 4 years ago.
Ya, everyone seems to dismiss that game because it is a "remake" but it felt more like a brand new game, even more so than Zero Mission.
AM2R was amazing
@@thalanoth AM2R is the goat!
What i inderstand is that the last new entry is over 10 years ( metroid fusion)
@@gabrielrasilva you mean other m? Fusion was 2002 lol
That turns your gunhand into an even bigger gunhand😂
"Boston Dynamics Glados" OMG that killed me, haha.
Say, "the last metroid is in captivity. galaxy is at peace..."
Frustrating
Hardworking bosses
I felt so lost in the game a lot
Damn, I love Metroid.
Beautifully encapsulates losing slowly losing your sanity as you backtrack and look over the map again and again only to find out you still can’t open that door
I'm so glad this appeared in my recommended. I haven't watch an Honest Trailer since 2020 and this was perfect to come back to.
Well, in Metroid Prime, she turns into energy. Meanwhile, in Captain N: The Game Master, she just rolls around in the fetal position.
Do one for the Sly Cooper trilogy!
I only get to play the first game, but yeah! Do it!
The difficulties of the melee counter with your middle aged reflexes hit a little close to home
Especially with that boss you end up fighting 3-4 times, and requires successfully parrying 2 attacks to defeat him. It made me angry and bored.
Say "Is that camera still running?!"
Do Guardians of the Galaxy!
Make an Honest Trailer for Mario Party Superstars
You know that running joke in Zelda trailers where, when they're listing the characters at the end, they always refer to Link as Zelda? I kinda wish they'd do that here by referring to Samus as Metroid.
Oh, that #2:02 section hit me hard. And I haven't even played any Metroid game. Only ones which were inspired by it.
Okay so he made fun of it, and I don't know how fun it'd be to watch, but professional tag looks hell of fun to play
Say: “I want to apologize again for my behavior at the school the other night. I take allergy medicine, and I’m not supposed to drink 14 shots of tequila when I’m on it.”
That last bit got me.
“I don’t need sleep, I need answers”
The awnser for samus transformung into the morph ball ist bird magic
Has there ever been an Honest Trailer for the old C&C style Dune game?
C&C is a Dune II clone!
That 'C&C style Dune game' is what led to C&C lol! It came first, not the other way around.
It stinks that Dread is my first Metroid game because now I have to live with the fact that I’ll probably never be able to play a new Metroid in 10+ years.
use an emulator, do Super Metroid. It's an order !
Been waiting for this one!
i clicked on this looking for junk food content to watch and found out about professional tag and now I have a bunch of stuff to watch thanks
Please do an honest game trailer for Star Wars Republic Commando.
I'll be honest, this game kicked my butt. I died at least 30 times my first play through. That being said, I enjoyed the game a lot and much like Dark Souls, Monster Hunter, and Doom Eternal I like difficult games that are built well. Also I make fun of those gaming journalists that said the game is too hard to be enjoyable.
*Cough cough David Jaffe Anyone? Cough cough*
5:30 I think the Prime series basically says Chozo tech turns her into energy contained between the two sphere halves that then reforms afterwards, that and something about Space Pirates trying to make their own version and the experiments having 0 survivors because they go full Picasso.
Haha this one is amazing! Thank you for covering Dread. 👍
How you do one for Hollow Knight? Seems like a nice change of pace to do an indie once in a while.
Do Civilization. My request is backed up by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!
I never fails to make me laugh when Ghandi says that.
that animation of samus smacking the table made me laugh so hard I started coughing
How about noting the fact that Samus has more personality in this with her body language, a single line of dialog, and one rage fueled scream than in all of Other M?
