This game is legitimately overrated as fuck. Baby's first metroidvania.
>overly simplistic combat with little depth
>weapons upgrades pretty much only functionally allow you to do the same thing you could do at the start of the game, just higher damage
>le dark souls "we want you to waste a bunch of time retreading your steps from the latest save point after you die"
>extremely slow start
>most rooms are just narrow corridors
>health system renders the game easy, yet annoying to farm enemies to heal
>God forbid the game just gives you the map for an area, instead you have to find it first
>all the backtracking
>finding out where you have to go just to progress isn't actually fun
Seriously, what's up with people jacking off Super Metroid as if it stands above everything else? (pic unrelated).
