Watching these fights really shows me how much the game rewards skill if you get the counters right. You get to deal so much more damage, you get rewarded with more health and missile drops and against some bosses it also reduces the number of cycles needed to beat them. Really well played!
Also, the game is balanced in such a way that all bosses will die after you correctly perform the second parry, if you keep attacking during the animation afterwards. This game manages to strike that sweet spot between difficult and cinematic really well.
@@frescopino7866 For the Experiment boss? Yes, why wouldn't you do that? Unless you skipped storm missile via the speed run sequence break, you'd have storm missiles during the Experiment boss fight normally
Man I love how the game rewards the player for having good parry timing on the bosses which gives them these cool little sequences with the bosses that you could otherwise miss if you never attempt to parry them. That is such a nice touch. And it feels like you are more engaged in the fight by still being able to shoot in real time rather than a simple QTE of just pressing the right button during it.
When I play action games, one of the most important things is whether or not there is a parry, as you say, this game that can actively attack is really great
@@gotrojansfighton in games like these u can tell because the frame rate will stay 60 during the qte sequence but in the cutscenes it looks like its 30 fps
@@TrueXiarno i mean yeah the game tells you, it’s just that most people wouldn’t think of using it in boss fights since starting a shinespark needs you to be out of danger and boss fights in this game are fast paced, so it still is impressive
@@gbtygfvyg it doesnt help you cant shinespark later when you have Screw Attack so its not like its something you can keep doing. makes going back to some puzzles difficult, still possible though. you can still do midair shinesparking if you are in a normal falling animation.
@@BobDoleTrasher I found an option that sort of works, if a little cumbersome. Switching to Morph Ball mid-fall and switching back out to reset the fall animation after a Space Jump/Screw Attack. Managed to make it work in a Shinespark puzzle.
I can't believe that Golzuna has an animation for when it's being damaged with the Shinespark, and that Kraid has a weak spot with bombs. Those details shows that Sakamoto did this game with care and experience from every metroid game.
@SNES Nes dude, Sakamoto even included from Other M the diffusion beam and the homing missiles as the Storm Missile. That's a good reference to the game without mentioning it, and this are features that the people enjoys while they play.
@SNES Nes I mean, imagine the face of haters of Metroid: Other M when they realize that this upgrades were originally from that game (😱), it's not something expected, it's kinda ironic omp
This is absolutely unreal, I can’t even imagine the level of concentration necessary to pull off half of this. I only just learned to beat that midsection boss after getting the gravity suit with a shinespark.
6:54 This is pure badassery. I never thought of using speedboost as a way to damage mini-bosses. You learn something cool every time you watch someone play this game.
@@ajibuta I've noticed it seems like the bosses go down faster if you can master the counter timing and get the bonus damage from that. Also that in hard mode they don't seem to have more health than they do in normal mode.
@@ajibuta good to know, but it's nice to see that hard mode means you have take less damage instead of having to deal more. Most games go with "hard bosses have x times health" and become slog fights. Metroid Dread seems to basically tell you "refine your skills, and learn to avoid everything and you'll be fine".
I'll definitely be using some of the simpler strats on subsequent playthroughs. I'm nowhere near good enough to do anything like a no-hit run, but some of these strats absolutely make some of the spots I struggled in a lot more manageable. I did actually find out Shinesparking bosses, but I had yet to see it in action (or do it myself, natch) so I now have a better idea on where and how to do it (those Chozo robots always tripped me up in particular), and sliding under Raven Beak in phase two seems like such a no-brainer, but in retrospect it's obvious. And finally, while I knew the Gold Chozo's shield wasn't breakable like the others, I did not know you could grapple it. Very handy to know; now I'll see if I can put it into practice lol
The programmers of this game deserve so much credit for incorporating so many combat possibilities in the first place; it’s really astounding. Very well played 🙌🏼😎
I got to the twin gold chozo robot fight late when I first played through the game. Turns out the Power Bomb instakills them. I love that the devs thought of that for those who might come to fights late,
Truly incredible. Makes me feel like i didn't accomplish much by beating the last boss with all my gear! Great shinesparks on those robot chozos, too. Wish i would have thought of that. There are a couple ways you could go even faster, though: For Kraid, when he fires the three spikes one after the other (not all at once during the phase transition) you can jump onto the spikes and climb up to the top, skipping part of the lower phase. I don't see ANYONE doing this but that's what i did when i fought him. (You can jump on those things in Super Metroid, too, which is why i tried it!) Also you can alternate between beam and missile attacks by mashing attack and then intermittently tapping R1 to get a missile. While the missile is cooling down, you can continue firing normal shots. This will increase your damage rate in some sections. Maybe you know about this and had a different strategy in mind, but that's what i've seen speedrunners do.
This is amazing. Seeing you play so efficiently, especially when you were perfectly following Raven Beak's movements was fun to recognize and watch. You also made me realize that I can get two charged shots off per rotation while avoiding his rapid fire beam attack, but I know that aiming suddenly directly down or up while mid jump can be quite hard to pull off consistently. Really good learning experience!
Hell yeah this is cool - I just beat the game today and while I did figure out the mid air shinespark for getting some stuff for 100%, I didn't think about using shinespark in a boss fight.. very cool!
Most impressive! But I think what's really remarkable is how you were able to avoid certain upgrades directly in front of your path during the game! :D
There is a nice trick for the storm missile beetle . If you sequence break and get here with screw attack. Screw attack completely destroys this boss, it cancels all of its projectiles and deal massive contact damage to the beetle without hurting Samus.
Mashing as fast as possible was the first thing I tried once the game aloud me to control Samus. Shooting that fast manually hurts my arm lol. This video was fun to watch. Nice sKILLS. 👍
This is both impressive and informative! Learned some new counters, and I see I have neglected the normal beam shots, always went for missiles! (especially the homing ones, which you barely used at all O_o )I've 100% normal mode, will save Hard for later. Will be back to look for tips when I do =)
The characteristic sound and yellow light are the cues, but there are some things that are difficult to understand, because in some cases you will knock them down before using them.
til that Kraid and Raven Beak have hard to notice counters and feel like a blind fool for not noticing them. i also learned that the most annoying, but challenging, part of Raven Beak's fight can be removed with a Power Bomb. wish that had worked when i did it the first time, but i guess the "sun" isnt vulnerable until it reaches the very top, so due to that incidental slight mistiming of my power bomb, i instantly assumed "oh fuck, i guess i just have to deal with this shit."
The first time I saw it I assumed power bomb because it kind of looks like one. Also, if anyone is an anime fan I've been calling that attack cruel sun lol
The downside to this level of skill is you miss out on things like the cutscene where you bash in the Skull of Expirement No.Z-57 with missiles in the background of the 2D fight platform. The upside to this level of skill, is you're freaking awesome!
I was left speechless at how you play the game with 0% upgrades while I get my butt handed over to me in hard mode close to 100% Thanks for the massive flex lol, good work.
I have seen people defeating the Golzuna X-core with the Shinespark, so you can use that to end the fight even quicker. Also, is it possible to use the Shinespark during the Raven Beak's second phase? It does seem like the arena is big enough to activate Speedbooster.
Wow, aside from really fantastic af execution, you also used moves that I didn't realize that you can (like the shinespark ones). This is the coolest video I've seen this year.
@@ajibuta yes, it is! I just finally beat it the other day. Took me 9 hours.. but it's my first try! My only complaint is that I wish there was a way to play as final Metroid form Samus because it'd be fun for a good bit of time to just blast all enemies with the gigantic laser blast at the end without the timer forcing you to leave and win..
You have to tell me, do you still enjoy the final boss fight? You've probably fought it over and over at this point. In my opinion it's probably the coolest fight in the whole Metroid franchise, so I hope you still enjoy it (although I guess you wouldn't make videos like this if you didn't)
@@ajibuta I agree! It's an instant classic, and it fits in so well next to the older games. I hope that the team wants to make more, this engine is gorgeous.
Your level of skill is absolutely insane. Especially after I also just watched your video of you NOT using a turbo button on your pro controller. Bravo, man. Bravo.
bloody helll man, i couldn't do well in boss fight even with full armor haha, died so many time pretty much for all the early-mid bosses, really nice play
ADAM: You cannot hope to face Raven Beak, even at your fullest potential. He is much too strong an opponent. Samus, with the absolute bare minimum Arsenal: *How ‘bout I do anyway?*
one of the only things about this game that disappoints me is that raven beak's beam didn't scorch and scar the surrounding environment from all of his blasts during the final fight. would have been a neat detail to show, imo it would add an extra level of epic finality to the game.
In game tips: "no attack is unavoidable"
This guy: "unless I'm doing the attacking"
This is how I imagine Samus fights when she isn’t controlled by us.
Samus: winded can't breath from running miles & forcing herself into a ball
Same 🤣
You're Right.
Lol so true
Just like Bayonetta during shortcuts / Bayonetta when you have to control her
So the game was actually telling the truth with that "every attack is avoidable" tooltip after I repeatedly died in this battles :p

It was a blind spot to use for the X core, thank you for telling me, Samus will die instantly when used for Raven Beak
@@ajibuta Is it because of you going 0% completion is why it'll kill you if you tried to use Shinespark against Raven Beak?
@@harlannguyen4048 Yes, if you have a lot of health, you won't die in reaction, but you can't damage Raven Beak.
@@ajibuta I guess the devs didn't want the player to cheese through this fight with Shinesparks.
And I thought MY button-mashing was fast.
You're amazing. You don't even look like you are struggling!
I did this in the second week, so I had the hardest time along the way.
I’m surprised nobody’s talking about the firing, I don’t even think Samus fires that fast in cutscenes!
yea I was thinking this.. like must have on rapid fire controller or something
@@jhuanpressley6398 Please see the video at the bottom of the summary section
Rapid fire. I seen Maxamillion Dood was playing with a PS4 controller, so it's possible
Wow, aside from really fantastic af execution, you also used moves that I didn't realize that you can (like the shinespark ones). This is the coolest video I've seen this year.
Thank you for watching, this game is really great, isn't it?
@@ajibuta yes, it is! I just finally beat it the other day. Took me 9 hours.. but it's my first try! My only complaint is that I wish there was a way to play as final Metroid form Samus because it'd be fun for a good bit of time to just blast all enemies with the gigantic laser blast at the end without the timer forcing you to leave and win..
Samus at that time was completely invincible, so it would be fun to use it in some extra mode.
You have to tell me, do you still enjoy the final boss fight? You've probably fought it over and over at this point. In my opinion it's probably the coolest fight in the whole Metroid franchise, so I hope you still enjoy it (although I guess you wouldn't make videos like this if you didn't)
Not to mention the final boss, I think this is the best 2D Metroid masterpiece.
@@ajibuta I agree! It's an instant classic, and it fits in so well next to the older games. I hope that the team wants to make more, this engine is gorgeous.
Your level of skill is absolutely insane.
Especially after I also just watched your video of you NOT using a turbo button on your pro controller.
Bravo, man. Bravo.
You saw that too, thank you very much
bloody helll man, i couldn't do well in boss fight even with full armor haha, died so many time pretty much for all the early-mid bosses, really nice play
ADAM: You cannot hope to face Raven Beak, even at your fullest potential. He is much too strong an opponent.
Samus, with the absolute bare minimum Arsenal: *How ‘bout I do anyway?*
one of the only things about this game that disappoints me is that raven beak's beam didn't scorch and scar the surrounding environment from all of his blasts during the final fight. would have been a neat detail to show, imo it would add an extra level of epic finality to the game.
Genuinely can't believe how quickly you beat Experiment Z-57
ボス戦でのシャインスパークとラスボス戦のパワーボム、そんなに有能アイテムだったのか
This video makes the bosses look like a peace of cake. :0
insane playing
I mean, I understand taking no damage the entire game would render energy tanks unnecessary....
...But no MISSILE tanks!?, you madlad!
The best compliment, thank you very much
