Would you play a metroid game developed by fromsoft if nintendo stayed out of the development process

No.

Any reason?
>>
>dark souls so edgy
Stop this meme pls.
>>
Yes.
>>
Why would anyone want that?

Please stop with this retarded "X game made by From Soft or Platinum." It's fucking stupid and never makes sense.
>>
>>336399078
Because the result wouls basically be 3d super metroid which was by far the best in the series
>>
>>336398995
Because FROM isn't a good fit for the IP.

>>336399259
Sp who is a good fit?

>>336399347
Yokoi Gunpei and the original R&D1

Retro. I really can't think of any other modern dev that's proven capable of making Metroid like games that aren't also indies or something.

There is not a single metroid prime boss that was actually challenging they are all stun and them damage or fire at its weakspot

I was not co-developed between Wayforward and Konami.

It was developed by Wayforward and Konami published.

No, its not. It takes place between Contra III and Hard Corps.

>I just dont think they would be a fit
And who would be?
>>
>>336401798
In my opinion as long as they dont make metroid-souls fromsoft would be they have the exploration they have the ability to handcraft worlds its not like their only game was dark souls
>>
From could do it, but they'd need help from another studio. I don't think could pull off a good shooter
>>
>>336398741
Well the Metroid Prime games share some similarities with the King's Field games, so I think it would be good.
>>
>>336401058
Metroid has never been particularly hard unless you're going for some self-imposed low percent run.
>>
>>336402420
Its never been super hard bit it could throw some twists your way and bosses tended to take more than a single try
>>
>>336402230
Metroid isn't a shooter.

>>336402050
>they have the exploration they have the ability to handcraft worlds
The last game they made that was remotely Metroid-like was Dark Souls 1. I don't have much confidence in their ability to craft genuine Metroidvania level design given their latest offerings are pretty damn linear.

>its not like their only game was dark souls
Yeah, and none of them are even remotely close to being anything like Metroid.
>>
>>336402583
It still has very little in common with Souls games and there's no reason From should have anything to do with the franchise.

No. I don't think third person Metroid games are good unless they're 2d.

Yeah and it would probably be the best metroid since super.

First off I don't know what you're doing playing Metroid if all you care about is hard bosses, and secondly, some of those Prime 2 bosses were a real bitch.

but Wayforward always made licensed games

if you got it flaunt it, and make cash on the side dude

You dudes do know Souls games aren't the only thing From has made, right?

>>336398741
no. platinum would be a better fit.

No. Sure, they'd be able to get a good "adventure" feel but the gameplay would be very meh because they've never done anything quite like it
>>
>>336399636
>I'm such an oldfag :)

let it go, man.
>>
>>336404010
They've made games about giant robots, ghost ships and dying worlds. I think they can handle it.
>>
>>336404010
I think OP just wants a Metroid with that sort of dark aesthetic. which might be nice. you don't really need from for that though.
>>
>>336404118
But never all at once.
Armored Core is way too action-packed, Echo Night is way too fast, and the "dying worlds" aspect is the only thing I know they can do right
>>
>>336403920
Tenchu, Cookie and Cream, and Armored Core don't have much to do with Metroid either!

From saved 3D Castlevania.

They can save 3D Metroid.

The real question is who can revive 2D Metroid
>>
>>336404584
Indies.
>>
>>336404223
Either way, they've proven they can do a variety of things, so assuming they couldn't handle this just because they haven't done anything exactly like it before seems a tad presumptuous.

They're not even at the top of the list of people I'd want on the series but frankly I'd rather it be them than whatever crackpot team Nintendo has now.

The grounded, mature tone I'd like to see the series head in is kind of hamstrung by the cartoony elements intrinisic to Metroid. Her spaceship looks like her helmet. Shit is goofy as fuck

Didnt someone at fromsoft say they where making a sci fi game?
>>
>>336405104
Sakamoto is still technically in charge of Metroid, against all logic and reason, but I don't even know if he wants anything to do with the series anymore after his baby bombed. Sakurai is actually a pretty good dev whenever he's not chained down to Smash which I guess he isn't right now since Smash 4 is finished.

It's a good meme.

Dark souls gave me castlevania vibes, classicvania vibes for the difficulty and simple combat, metroidvania for level design, items, exploration, NPCs and such. Bloodborne even more so.
>>
>>336404885
Prime 3 was already headed in a more action oriented direction, that game just happened to screw up on the exploration and story part.

>>336398741
I would play only because From Software made it. I've never cared about Metroid games.

I don't think Retro wants to do Metroid anymore. I'm also not sure the Prime style should be carried forward anymore. It was great for its time, but I think Metroid would play better as an over-the-shoulder shooter.

Or we're adults who actually enjoyed super metroid back in the day and were disappointed when they raped the series in 3D, instead of just slurping up anything nintendo power was saying in their failed effort to save the gamecube.

That's what I mean. I've legitimately never met a Metroid fan who wasn't a fan of both, and yet every Metroid thread here is always full of "hur primebabbies and they're objectively bad shooters" and it just reeks of nothing but an attempt to rile people up.

I'm not even going to go so far as to say anyone who likes the 2D games automatically must like the 3D games, or vice versa, but the methods used in these threads just don't seem like genuine opinions at all.

yeah, I played it for the first time over the last couple of weeks. I got to Emperor Ing and I just stopped. I wasn't having fun, like every fight in the game he had too much health, invincibility phases. Whether or not you damaged him was random based on if your shots hit his leg getting in the way of his mouth. It was just tedious, like the whole game. Terrible map design too.

Prime is amazing, don't think Retro ever really topped it.

If I remember correctly Nintendo's been more fixated on going back to TRADITIONAL Metroid so shut your faggot ass up.

You know what is going to happen next, they're going to see that everyone is mostly interested in a 2D Metroid and finally make one.
