I agree

It’d be a great video and the fact that it’s continued so long speaks to how wonderfully detailed this game is, and how good at exploring and observing this channel is

Long videos are all the rage with the algorithm right now too

I love how you can see the Phantom Cloak monster hunting in the background leading up to the bossfight- I noticed it a few times in my first playthrough, but I see it even more in the second!

Facts

Well yeah its a chozo robot

Aaaaand in Samus Returns you can see the exact same Chozo being built! I don't remember exactly in which area though.

@@rossdurden I hope we get to fight it one day. Even though the chozo plot line is finished for now, maybe it could be some "lost tribe" found on another planet.

@@DeltaOdyssey It's not entirely finished. At least two X imitating the two chozo soldiers escaped ZDR before it was destroyed.

I believe Looygi is still refering to the larvae, saying it may be related to Experiment.

So does Raven Beak X; you can hear the abomination saying "TAMUS... HADAR SEN OLMEN" if you listen carefully. I think the X are just repeating what their hosts said most recently, processing their memories but unable to properly understand language.

What makes you think it's the end? I bet there's still more content in this game

Which makes no sense. Quiet Robe died, and the X absorbed his body and mimicked him. It's not really him.

Im going to start a new game now just so I can hear those banging sounds 😄

Yeah, these are easy to notice on the very first playthrough.

You go to Dairon after getting the Varia suit normally, because iirc you get the bombs there and you need the varia suit to either kill kraid normally or to sequence break in Dairon to get the bombs. You also go there initially to do some of Burenia, but only is you got the diffusion beam Forgot, but the very first time you go there is for the wide beam

I just made a comment about those crashes...

Its more likely the ships were utterly decimated after itorash crashed into hanubia, considering the damage everywhere and that it causes the planet to explode its highly likely thats the case. Also even if few x escaped they reproduce asexually so they can always increase in number

It's also possible that the ships simply crashed into the ground during the escape sequence. The entire fucking planet was exploding after all, I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say that the massive tremors produced by the explosions caused whatever systems were holding the ships in place to fail.

Or, it's going along with the rebooted story that was started by Zero Mission, same as Samus Returns (and pretty much every Metroid game (other than Other M) that came out after ZM)

That and a lot of bosses have cutscenes that cancel your Shinespark

Wait does that mean you can kill raven beak with two shinesparks??

@@Smallmesa No he is one boss that is immune to shinesparks, you just bounce

@@diegog1853 oof

it would be even better if was the starting boss shortly after the game starts, and it would teach you about stuff like melee counters and sliding and whatnot, that would make the rematch more hype, and the first fight more memorable.

Wrong, Samus getting Chozo DNA is from the Super Metroid comic that ran in Nintendo Power from February to June 1994. In fact the manga uses the comic as the foundation for much of its plot (at least in Volume 1).

@@AICW Wait, I thought the manga was made for Metroid 1, as in it predates Super Metroid. Is that wrong?

@@umyum3858 Very wrong. The manga was published from late 2002 to 2003 in a now-defunct seinen magazine. It was made to be a tie-in to Metroid Zero Mission which came out in 2004. The 1994 Super Metroid comic is the origin for 90% of Samus's backstory. It created the plot points of Samus being the lone orphan survivor of a Pirate attack on Earth colony K-2L, her rescue by Old Bird and him taking her to Zebes where she gets a Chozo blood transplant to survive on the planet, and then her being gifted the Power Suit and trained as a warrior. It also introduced the idea of Samus's mental focus being necessary to maintain the suit's strength (so to many people's shock, it was an American comic that came up with this idea, not Other M). The comic also created the characters of Chairman Keaton and Chief Hardy, who were later imported into the manga. There was also another character named Armstrong Houston who fancied himself a "rival" bounty hunter to Samus and used a cheap knockoff blue Power Suit; it is suspected that the character of Anthony Higgs in Other M was meant as a replacement for Houston. The manga only created two plot points that have since been canonized: it established that Ridley murdered Samus's mother in front of her (the comic just said her parents died in a Space Pirate bombing raid), and it revealed that Mother Brain was a Chozo biological supercomputer who played a pivotal role in raising Samus as a child. Essentially the manga made Ridley and Mother Brain have a very personal history with Samus.

@@AICW I was talking about canon material. The manga is considered canon while the comic is not, despite the influence. The DNA infusion wasn't mentioned in any game prior to Dread to my knowledge.

I am really curious about Exelion company because we don't know if Raven Beak modified EMMIs to be invulnerable to Samus Weapons or maybe...these were designed by Exelion all this time. I hope se have a Metroid 6 un sometime(5 years I think).

RB is so careful about making sure the X don’t escape the planet that he has a dead mans switch which blows the entire planet up, I would find it beyond shocking that he doesn’t account for ships in a shipyard

@@wonderguardstalker Maybe the ships are gone because they're the first thing that got the auto-destruction order, rather than being able to fly away.

@@Y2GTeranDelgado The opening cutscene says that the EMMI are "made of the strongest stuff in the universe" so presumably they were designed that way. Why DNA extraction robots would need such strong armor is kind of a mystery though. I guess Samus can be damaged by a bunch of organic enemies, so they just need it for consistent operation.

That scared me the first time too! Never figured out what it was

Yeah those bangs on the wall that leave dents behind. I want to know so bad xD I haven't found an explanation yet The only thing I can Think of is like, the Robot Chozo Soldiers. We don't see any Chozo wandering around prior to the X outbreak, so I doubt it'd be one that was just trapped or such. Shouldn't be Raven Beak either since he'd make a B-line straight to Itorash so he can keep tabs on Samus and do the whole "ADAM" shtick So that leaves me with either the wildlife - which I doubt Some random experiments - ????? Or freshly finished up Robot soldiers that try to attack Samus as they sense her, but can't make it through the wall and either malfunction or understand that they're not making it through the wall, OR Raven Beak shuts them off remotely (like 'now is not the time, you'll come into play Later') But these are purely guesses and speculation. I'd love to know if someone has a better answer or actual facts, that'd be cool~

Corpius disappears when you absorb its power

@@justinokraski3796 True true, the labs probably have a buhgillion experiments like corpius

He already done

Just with two eyes though?

I didn't even think of that, but now I see it! That is a really cool idea 👍

It definitely looks like a head with eyes and jaws, at least the angle the model is presented in the video.

I didn't think there's any such thing as a developing Phantoon. I thought Phantoons were the ghosts of Mother Brains.

@@LyfSukz Possible. I don't actually know the lore of Phantoon.

He calls her lady not madam, plus its common knowledge by now

Probably

It's highly likely, since we've not seen other Chozo wield arm cannons. The only ones to do that so far are Raven Beak & Samus (who has RB's DNA as a donation) It might also be RB only tech in a way, so no-one else simply has access to it, but he allowed it here to have Samus better resemble him than any other Chozo. Or to just have an edge on the Thoha, who can say when their bickering among each other began

@@emmareiman64 Well I would think other Chozo do use arm canons because everywhere the chozo have been there is arm cannon and morph ball activated technology left by them. Though that is my explanation for why those gameplay features exist all over. You're right that they're are the only 2 people we see using arm cannons so maybe it is exclusive to them.

1: shut up, no one cares. 2: you didn't even watch the video, with your "nice upload"

@@YoshiAteTooManyYoshiCookies Double facts
