They gonna die if they fight her

SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! LOL

Duuuuuude the next story arc HAS to be the Federation trying to hunt her down for her betrayal in Fusion.

@@johnleonard9102 fr bro. I can't tell if she was working with them or not in Dread.

@@fedjamagga8385 In the beginning of the game, Adam says something about the contract not being worth the risk. So that means the Federation offered her a bounty. I was hoping that there would be a reveal that the EMMI units were made specifically to hunt her down. I don't think it's a coincidence that everyone of them was immune to her own weapons and they had some of her abilities.

Seeing you and your name reminds me of when It was questioned in the game what MOTIVATED Raven Beak to spare Samus after their initial fight

@@matheuslopes5287 I see what you did there 😏

I love it. Samus was not corrupted by stupid western sociopolitical sensibilities, no talking feelings in hallways or cafes. She's a woman of action and few words if any at all.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!"

One of the greats!!!🙌🏾

My brain almost exploded; it was the perfect time for them to allow Bluetooth devices to connect to Switch!

Yup!

I got so hype ngl

@@Jitterzz speaking of Bluetooth, am I the only one having the issue when I connect Bluetooth headphones to my house TV i get like a whole second of delay added to my switch

@@leightonpetty4817 YES! This 100%

"lazy fan service" Who calls it that? It's the theme of the main character... do you not know how film, TV, and video game scoring works lol

Sadly it didnt win Game of the Year

@@arek.k8688 I'd say that Dread was robbed, but I'm also happy the guy who said "Fuck the Oscars" won.

@@MexicanSheepMan I would say rift apart was more robbed but I'm also happy Mr fuck the Oscars won

Yeah I'm glad It takes two got it's time to shine, I'm just glad Metroid was even nominated at all, it's been a decently niche franchise for a while and I'm glad it's finally getting some well deserved attention.

Yep

Amen my friend amen I couldn't agree more if I tried

The wait is literally killing me, i ordered two copies and they wont arrive on launch date

Should u play if you haven’t played other Metroid games

@@nagi9990 It has little callbacks for longtime players, but it’s very accessible for new people. You can definitely play it as your first Metroid game

@@nagi9990 Metroid Dread System was thinking for veterans and newcomers so don't worry.

Literally got chills at that scene. Had to pause😭😭😭

for a second I didn't even know who was talking. then it hit me and I freaked out.

@@BradTheDead Who i didn't play it yet

@@-howtomake999 you'll find out

Aka "cohco hsiahsj jahsbdkso agissjbso" or smth I don't speak chozo

🤣🤣🤣

Because they are already dead and buried by this time in the series

@@Nikotinbetyar Already Dead? Something that only Hokuto Shinken could do?

It even says "Theme of Samus Aran" in Smash

@@silverflight01 It's actually Theme of Samus Aran, Space Warrior in Smash.

Actually, "Theme of Samus Aran, Space Warrior" in Super Metroid was a different track from the version we know today. It played when you returned to Crateria about midgame. The one we know was called "Theme of Super Metroid".

It's funny... I know this song was envisioned as "The Theme of Super Metroid," kind of an overture to the game itself, and Samus had her own track that was intended to be her theme in that same game, but... I've always much more closely associated this track with Samus.

"... Don't worry. I'll end this. Once and for all."

It also explains why she's generally so quiet most of the time, we don't often see her get to talk to Chozo directly, I do wonder if she also knows the Federation's common language or if she just has a reliable translator, or, probably both

@@UNSCPILOT Oh she can most certainly speak whatever qualifies as “basic”. I personally see Samus as being a highly observant, detail oriented introvert. She prefers to take her time in social situations and process and digest all the little details before commenting.

Samus is back in commision, and in her native tongue too.

literally my first reaction after I picked my jaw back up from the floor was "... she spoke"

Nah. Samus isn't a victim. She's a fighter.

@@lucifercaeleste Oh absolutely. My point is Samus found probably the single best way to deal with it. *force feeding alien pirate scum missiles.*

@@spartanhawk7637 gotcha. It sounded like you were implying that she would care what game journalists think from your original comment.

Lol i read "i always have a missile on my face"

Idk why but this song reminds me of the building the fake bird scene from the ants movie and also btw I'm not a Metroid fan but I love dread

Same

such a perfect opening theme

sorry im 2 years late to this but how is this a spoiler for Dread, it was obvious that samus became a metroid sense fusion

@@Da_Puff I haven't played dread in a while but it was more plot relevant in this game that she's the last metroid. Plus it's more potent with her actually going full Metroid at the end.

The last Metroid in both biology and title

Yep. She's got Metroid DNA, Mawkin DNA, and Thoha DNA. A Chozo that can drain the power of her enemies if she needs to.

@@silverflight01the OP means the original meaning of the word "Metroid". In Chozo, it means "ultimate warrior"

Now I am become Metroid, the ultimate warrior

by Yoshio Sakamoto?

Imagine being in the same room as Bayonnetta and Samus I wonder if they'll get along

they will probably kill eachother

Bro I straight up cried. Not even afraid to admit it, it took me straight back to my childhood.

How? A despite having several enhancements in a suit she still has to run from clankas who can't even shoot guns, because 'Noooo, I don't have my Omeeega Weapons, boo hoo'. TOTTFIY stops playing only to queue E1M1... Or BFG Division.

@@proghostzgamecreed6555 and now you are just being a jerk. it is explained in the game why she can't take on on the emmis head on at first.

​@@Neko_Medic Exactly. One who is badass is always badass despite the circumstances. Like Slayer from DOOM Eternal, where nothing holds him back from beating the whole game in hardest difficulty with just a pistol. Of course it take far too long, but it is possible. Or are you thinking EMMIs are stronger than Marauders? You are the one who is indirectly stating that Metroid protagonist is better than DOOM protagonist.

@@proghostzgamecreed6555 by the standars of the series, emmis are stronger than samus for most of the story. and being able to push forward despite being in clear disadvantage is much more badads than completely dominating also doomguy was overwhelmed at least twice (end of doom's 1st episode and backstory of 2016) also lets not forget Samus has destroyed multiple planets, countless space pirates, at least one entire dimension, etc. Samus has done as much as the slayer, possibly more.

​@@Neko_Medic Possibly more? Now you are being jerk. He literally obliterated Satan himself, who is the evilest being of all creation. DOOMGuy wasn't overwhelmed he was betrayed. DOOMGuy has fought Quadrillions of Billions of Millions demons for God knows how long, and those are not some 'Ara Ara anime demon' those bastards can rip intestines and make sweaters from them. Do you really think that a group of space bandits or Metroids could be compared to armies of hell? And you cannot push forward until you resoooooolve that EMMI problem. So, your 'badads' thingy invalid there too. You are saying like "Oh! look at that rebel scum who almost headshoted Darth Vader if hadn't deflected his blaster and killed him with that same shot. He is so badads." Of course, Samus is badass, so is Blazkowicz, Gordon Freeman, Chell, Commander Shepard, Bastila Shan, Boba Fett, The Scout, Heavy Weapons Guy, Link, You, Johnny Silverhand, Dante, Vergil, Ryu, Ken, Scorpio, Raiden, Subzero, Orchid, Cinder, Sam Fisher, Solid Snake, Ezio, Altair, Master Chief, Noble Six. But DOOMGuy is just more badass than anyone except God.

And growing

And waiting. We got Dread. Now we must go Prime...4.

Bro same, I straight up started crying when it opened the intro card to this, with Samus talking about what happened last time and then getting the mission briefing. Just like old times man.

I'm still shocked how easy it was for so many of us to admit it even topped Super.

@@CapnShades Of course when Super Metroid launched 1994

Pretty debatable, Prime 2 is such a banger video game and my personal favorite

It's not.

@@dis_inferno9173 it did

I literally was comment this, if this is played as first song... I don't know what im gonna do

It was!

It was! I'm just so happy it won best action adventure

*theme plays* "Hey Adam, just checking in at this nav station to let you know they don't have any blueberry bagels at Target so I ended up getting just regular bagels. Hope that's okay with you cause I know you like the blueberry kind. Anyway what kind of chips should I get"

This was like "I just beat the game at 100%...wanna see me do it again?"

I watched a Games Done Quick Speedrun of Fusion from 5/6 years ago, and one of the couch commentator went "how about Dread?" I hope that guy played it and love it

The lore is just T H E B A B Y

I mean the chozo raised her so knew shouldve known that she can speak and understand tgeir language

I am not sure but wasn't it Lore that Samus was raized by the chozo? or had something to do with them? I really don't know but I expected her to understand him. but was surprised when she spoke

@@fabi3790 she was, yes

@@fabi3790 Yep, she was born on a human colony where Ridley and his space pirates raided and killed everyone but her. The Chozo picked her up and infused her with their own DNA so she could survive on the harsh conditions of Zebes, and they gave her the Power Suit and trained her to be a warrior.

Clout chasing doesn't care? XD

Fixed it, thanks!

And originately, it's the theme of Super Metroid, not the theme of Samus.

To confirm: - Theme of Samus Aran, in Super Metroid, is the one we can hear in Zebes. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9KEiqacq56mY6M.html - Theme of Super Metroid is the one we can hear in the intro. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9yJprmcl5nTqHU.html Anyways, thanks for the upload! That's what all we are here desired to find, no matter the name. Thanks!

@@HaidesTunicaRoja And during the last phase of the battle against Mother Brain.

...unless?

Final... ? I don't think so. Samus still have some score to settle with Federation...

Not only is she the last Metroid, but she's also the only person immune to the X-Parasites, and after foiling the plans of the Federation at the endgame of Fusion, I'd definitely expect something to happen between her and the Federation in the future, her mere existence endangers any corrupt plans that they Federation might have, after all.

Oh but he did. That’s the terrifying part…. Raven Beak…. won. The Ultimate Warrior has come.

Funnily enough, a remake of Fusion was what mercurysteam originally pitched to Nintendo, before they were given the project of remaking Metroid 2. Playing through certain parts of Dread, I thought to myself "heh, they still wanna remake Fusion don't they?" That said, I don't think Fusion needs a remake. It looks and plays great.

@@lavenderglaab835 I agree, Fusion doesn't need a remake; after Metroid 1 and 2 were remade, I don't think any of them do. Now if only Nintendo would provide a way for us to play all these games without needed to emulate them.

I’d be down for ANY of the 2D Metroid games to get remade with this game’s engine. I know fans would scream over a Super Metroid remake, but maybe if they had a “classic mode” with only up/down & angle aiming and no counter & Aeon abilities, those purists would get over it, and the rest of us could play that game with the superior free aim, sensible aeon abilities and the counter, and add cinematics to the boss fights.

I'd like to see Super Metroid get a remake. Maybe it won't, I don't know. The game is already a phenomenal masterpiece. But if MercurySteam ever manages to top it with a remake, I'd be extremely impressed.

@SNES Nes I'm betting on the next Mercury Steam project to be a Super Remake using Dread as a frame. I'd be ok with that, if it didn't mess with the story. Super's story is perfect.
