The Last Metroid | An Earnest Analysis

In preparation for Metroid Dread, we take a close look at the beloved sci-fi exploration series' themes and overarching narrative. Follow along as we thoroughly dissect everything from tone and presentation to cohesion and revision. (This is not about Metroid Dread by the way). 00:00 Chapter 0: The video intro 06:01 Chapter I: The Metroid Foundation 27:19 Chapter II: Metroid Fusion is the best, f--k you 56:22 Chapter III: Oh no, there is more Metroid stuff 01:18:13 Chapter IV: The Damage PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/transparens TWITTER: https://twitter.com/transparencyboo #Metroid #Nintendo #Videoessay Bonus Meme: Some people might claim that we are reading too much into the first four games, and yeah, maybe that is true. But the sad truth is that if that's the case then we probably thought about this more than Nintendo did and the series is just going to narratively stagnate. Then again the arc about Samus, the Metroids and the Chozo is supposedly being wrapped up now, and that at least fills me with some hope. The series really deserves to continue off of Fusion and just go its own way now. Also, Master Chief should be in Metroid. Not in Super Smash Bros Ultimate though. That is just silly to me. The fact that anyone believes that Master Chief, or the Doom Guy for that matter, has any sort of chance to get into that game just baffles me.
