I've seen a lot of people complaining about the difficulty of Stranger of Sword on Twitter. I normally enjoy a good dungeon crawler, but if it has permadeath...hmmm...i don't know.
There are also plenty of conveniently placed save points to make it easier.
Oh right! you were talking about Sun&Moon last year and I just forgot about it. I did play Dolly though, and it was quite good. Have you tried Environmentl Station Alpha? It is like Axiom Verge but more abstract and pixelated. It is very Metroid.
Hope you feel better. I had to wear a heart monitor also, when I was like 20, but it turned out to be nothing at all. Just stress. It was only for a couple of days. Black is an awesome PS2 game, as is Tearaway. I only played Tales of Zesteria which was also great!
If you like Metroid 1 for all it is then get it. If you can't go back to Metroid1 because it seems outdated in anyway, then don't bother. It will be annoying.
I think the WiiU gamepad is perfect for SNES type games. PSVita is great, but I think a slightly bigger screen would be perfect for this. I'll buy it again on WiiU if it ever comes out.
How far are you? I'm fiding the game hard already after 3rd boss. Maybe I just suck, but I'm dying a lot.
One of the reasons why I liked the Metroid Remake zero mission better than the original-- they made the game more accessible. Some of the artwork is a bit overwhelming here too, like they don't give me a sense of location like Metroid does. It is a Metroid 1 throwback for better or worse. I honestly prefer to play this in bed on PSVita than sitting in front of a TV because if the slow pace and backtracking. It's pretty cool though. I got the headphones on and the volume high!
The thing I like about the game is its breezy pacing. It just gets out of the way and lets you get to the action. I've praised Gust games in the past, and honestly I've enjoyed all the ones I've tried, in particular the Aterlier games. I didn't know about the story until I was playing it, and it caught my by surprise. Its actually pretty touching. But Gust does a great job with stories in Ateleir games too. Looking forward to Aterlier Sophie.
