I suck at Metroid Prime

I've played through nearly all Metroid games. Even sort of did speed runs in Dread, getting down to 2h7min before the world record wasn't much less than 1.5 hours (before the latest methods of sink and skew...)... but I have never played the Gamecube. So I have never played Metroid Prime, even though I bought the trilogy to play on the Wii (still haven't played through). Only games I ever would have played on the cube were the Metroid games and Zelda Wind Waker (which I have also not played through yet, but own). I could not justify buying a system for 4 games.

Now that it's out on the Switch, I tried to play it. I've now died 4 times, simply trying to escape after killing the first boss. Holy crap. I don't think I'll get through this game until I'm back out to sea and have an excess of time on my hands. I'm wondering if I'll even get the game started (by completing the escape)...

heh. I finally feel defeated enough to post that, and I get past it with nearly 2 minutes to spare on the very next try. The control scheme between having 2 different buttons that cause you to jump, switching to the visor and scanning stuff... is all rather confusing in this game... to a newcomer

    My state has put a heavy tax on vape juice, taxing any juice with nicotine by the weight/oz. So to get around the bs, my local vape store only sells 0 nicotine vape juices, then they also sell straight nicotine in tiny bottles, and you mix it yourself to your 0% juice, lol

    I do wonder how dominate Germany would've been if they just enlisted Jewish people
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    They actually enlisted Muslims, seriously, because the Muslims hates Jews, even tho it was not the supreme race. He claimed common hate, is friendship.
