Here is a Detail I Just figured out, When looking at the Mission Log you can see that Samus Encounters/Destroys an EMMI, "Destroyed E.M.M.I.-06WB", I thought -06WB Was a Serial Code or something, untill i realized that 06 means its the 6th EMMI and WB means Wave Beam, This is true for all EMMI's as they all state their Weapon and Which number they are.
Regarding the Chozo language bits: Chozodian makes heavy use of suffixes to add context to words, so ORO and OROMEL are very likely different contexts of a similar term. Some theorize that "ORO" refers to simply "lift," as a sort of unbound contraption, while "OROMEL" is a static, land-based lift contraption. There's an entire community built around studying the Chozo language, and they've made remarkable strides in this regard.
@@oldkefka Current evidence points to middle-eastern languages as the primary inspiration for Chozodian, and any parallels with Spanish are coincidental. Given that MercurySteam is a Spanish developer, they were likely very careful to prevent their primary language from bleeding into Chozodian beyond simple homophones, to prevent it from sounding too familiar.
In the files, Ker and Rem are referred to as "chozo_five" and "chozo_seven" respectively. Ai might mean "one", considering how "aimar" means "once", among other examples I don't remember atm I speculate that oromel is "updown", which would be very funny. Also, in-game, the last elevator only goes up, and all you see is "oro". The very last Adam briefing was supposed to be in Chozo, and apparently Raven Beak says "oro" in it, which apparently was supposed to mean "up"
In the under water level, there's a part where you walk by a view of the under water through glass windows, in one window(I don't recall where exactly) as you pass by it, a shark attacks the window trying to get at you.
In hindsight, the fans sequence in Experiment was supposed to clue you in to use the Speed Booster, after the other places where you sprint against fans. It just went over my, and a lot of others', head. lol
I did try using it but for me the boss would go in the background before activating Shinespark (I guess I was waiting too long for the head to appear instead of calculating before it appears)
There’s a video on Chozo words spelled in English, but those words spoken in Chozo have a translated to English meaning as well, each one of these words could be translated through the spoken dialect of Chozo. They really went all out with this game.
The morph sphere one is awesome When she doesn't have it, she leans her hand at the place is more comfortable for her to look through When she has the morph ball, she leans her hand down so she can grt some impulse to go throw the place It's so natural and logical when you think about it
Actually, i think she puts her hand up without the Morph Ball so she can more easily kick her feet forward for the slide and conversely, put her hand down to be able to roll forward into a Morph Ball transformation.
To be fair, It Takes Two is awesome and extremely wholesome. The common trend of relationships today is that you should just get divorced and walk away, but It Takes Two puts a giant middle finger to that philosophy and teaches that marriages are worth fixing. I feel the same way about God of War 2018, how it pushed against the common trend of dad's being deadbeats or clowns that can't be taken seriously, and gives you a man with a brutal past who just wants to settle down and be at peace with his son.
@@johnleonard9102 What does that have to do with _games_ though? Both of those stories could've been just as easily told in a show or movie, we should be rewarding games that do the things ONLY games can do.
@@Cri_Jackal Not really. Games are interactive media, while tv shows and movies are much less interactive. Anyways, the long and short of it is that only 10% of the people's vote counts on who wins Game Awards.
You say the hand with and without the Morph Ball, I missed pretty much ALL of these on my playthrough. I'm just baffled by all the subtle details they did
Do you mean switch exclusives? Cause even then it’s still probably beat by BOTW and similarly beautiful games. It’s up there don’t get me wrong but I think this is exaggerative
4:44 I'm sure I'm unbelievably late to the party here but it just dawned on me. Seeing that the Chozo language can be translated into English letter for letter, and then spoken, makes me wonder if the scene where Quiet Robe speaks has been translated the same way. Like it isn't just random sounds, it's an actual language that someone came up with and wrote out in English in the script.
I TOTALLY didn't realize you could still absorb energy and missiles with the Charge Beam in this game. I thought they got rid of it! 😂 The game that keeps on giving what it's supposed to give 😭❤️
Don't know if this was known to anyone but I was actually able to get the "flash shift counter" scene on Kraid without having flash shift. If you manage to hang on to the magnetic surface at the top for long enough Kraid will try to strike you with his mouth but there's an opening for a melee counter which will pull off this same sequence.
4:00 If oromel = elevator 4:25 then oro might just mean "up" or "Lift" or "Rise" 6:30 i 'believe' the feature of drawing farther items (missiles/energy) to you by charging your Beam is a feature from previous games...I think....I don't know why but I feel like it is...I think this was present in Samus Returns actually. Oh right forgot about prime
my only complaint is the abilities that hardly get used. I would have liked to have seen her melee attack used more often in non-timing attacks for example. And yeah a phantom cloak use for some enemies.
@@joeskis One of my more minor complaints is that there aren't many secret/skippable abilities aside from Space Jump - I do agree that the upgrades that are there are underutilized though. Hell, I kinda wish there were more missile doors. I get that the charge beam doors are supposed to replace them in general, but missiles are easier to replenish than ever in Dread. Dare I say, they could have even brought back the 5-missile requirement without issue.
Mercury Steam has gone a long way. Working for Nintendo really does seem to force developers to fit into a certain level of quality and detail-rich subtelties even though the hardware is pretty limited. Guess that's why they've been around for so long. At this point it's kind of hard to believe that they are the same people who worked at Clive Barker's Jericho, which is this... kind of unremarkable shooter.
To be fair though, it was apparently MS that challenged Nintendo to make a new Metroid in the first place. Sakamoto literally left the series to die because he didn't end up with a console advanced enough for a better AI to develop the SA-X concept from Fusion.
I thought Jericho was pretty good, just that it was only half the game. Great concept and pretty disturbing overall. A much more ambitious project than Undying, and even that one wasn't finished
Well, except Pokémon. TPC and GameFreak don't seem to be challenged that much to reach that level of polish given their recent outings. Still, one dev out of a dozen is still better than more.
@@AndrevusWhitetail I genuinely don't care in the slightest for Pokemon, but I assume you are talking about that Legends that is about to come out. I think. I'm all about Platinum Games' stuff, mainly Hideki Kamiya-directed games. The guy is a magician.
@@viewtiful1doubleokamihand253 No just in general, Pokemon has lost some good qualities over time. From a point where they created a top tier game which pushed the DS to it's limitations being Black/White/Black2/White2 to a barebones game lacking any charm being Sword/Shield. And considering it's literally the highest grossing media franchise in the world, it's a damn shame how they can't produce games which can be claimed as one of the best for it's console. Maybe they'll put enough care in the recent game like they used to, but I don't really care much either.
Maybe you did this in another video but the ice missles act differently when you're in lava. Or at least the animation is different. Also, love that the big fans just blow the missles back.
I hope they do something where they make a dlc for this game or come out with more games like dread. I don’t like many games on the switch but this game made every bit worth it
Looygi bros, I found out what rem means, it means one of this four, so, it means either Running efficient material, Running effective material, Running effective memory, Or running efficient memory, Sorry I don’t know which one, but I really hope this is helpful
I tried to do the shine spark thing and i just couldn't make it happen, will try in this new playthrough that i'm doing. Also, had no idea about the Kraid thing, i just can't do sequence break, i tried to replicate many things from the speedruns i have seen and none work for some reason.
the eassiest one would be the one in Yellow Emmi where you need to hit yourself with the robot flying in morphball. Tricky but it's the better place to try
Did anyone notice in 10 in the backround The robo chozo soldiers Are Being built Edit:u can find it for urself in cataris E.M.M.I central unit destruction fight idk
While my opinions of Dread's overall graphics and sound design is 'mixed' to say the least, I do have to give them credit when it comes to a lot of the small details. The portrayal of Samus in particular seems like a perfect merger between her attitude as the lone, quiet ,and experienced bounty-hunter from the Prime games and the over-the-top acrobatics of Other M. It's a shame that the world of ZDR just feels so uninspired, particularly the 'technological' environments; the various labs and research stations all look very man-made, as if the Galactic Federation could have built all of it. It just doesn't evoke that same atmosphere of a truly ancient and 'alien' world like Super Metroid did with Zebes, or even the Prime games with Tallon IV, Aether, Elysia, Urtraygus, etc. And while the background elements do look pretty cool and exceptionally detailed at times, they often clash with the game's actual level-design, which feels messy, random, and maze-like simply for the sake of being confusing. I also feel that the decision to present much of the rooms as 'interconnected', on the same screen, actually detracts from the atmosphere as it just looks too 'gamey' - as if you are looking at an ant-farm.
While I do agree that the level design kind of dictates the games art style and environment design, I might have to disagree with the sound design. The game is brimming with great sound effects, audio, and jingles throughout the whole journey. And while the soundtrack is the weakest in all the 2D entries, it still does it’s fair job to set in the atmosphere, especially in the emmi rooms whenever one of the robots are still on patrol.
