I’ve never been able to play any Metroid game for longer than five minutes. I’ve tried to play the original multiple times because of the clout it totes. I do not enjoy non linear 2d.
You should give Super Metroid a chance. The mapping and save points make it far more forgiving and easier to navigate than the original.
I don't usually care for non-linear 2D either, btw.
Same. Super Metroid is likely one of my favourite games and I can't really think of another non-linear 2D game I even like. For example, I've tried to play SoTN so many times and just can't get into it.
I have tried super Metroid and didn’t seem to care for it either, although I have only attempted to play it once.
I have tried to play blaster master numerous times because of the clout it totes as well and can’t get more than five minutes in before I’m done.
i think the original TLOZ is the only non linear 2d game I can think of that I enjoy. I think it’s because of the top down perspective versus the side scrolling view. The top down view just makes more sense to me for a non linear 2d experience.
You should give the GBA metroids a try. They're much more linear than the NES, GB and SNES games. They're broken down into much more descrete areas to explore and Zero Mission even directs you where to go next.
