wanted to make silly joke about troopers with gills something something kamino but then took myself on a speedrun that ended in ‘underwater squadron wouldn’t hear o66 bc comms’ and ‘they’d survive strafing kamino bc underwater’ and anyway that’s how there’s a squad of merclones in the rebellion

- will tease you all day if you decide to wear that out

- lingering touches on your thighs here and there

- has a smug smirk on her face while doing it

- she rides it up more, claiming "it looks better like that"

- has a pepper spray in her bag in case the both of you stays out until night 

- will STARE and GLARE at anybody who's looking at your legs

- like how dare they that's only for hers to look at ??

- the both of you are so feminine, guys mistake the both of you as just friends

- she'll simply roll her eyes and give them a disgusted look

- "what? haven't seen a pretty girl date another pretty girl? idiots."

- planning outfits with her !!!! ><

- the both of you laying down on your stomach, legs tangled with each other behind, and scrolling on your laptop to buy more clothes (and miniskirts)

- overall a power couple, we love feminine pussy eater girls <3

"cmon, lift it a little more up. what's the point of a miniskirt if you're gonna pull it down?" your butt cheeks are literally already hanging out.

no eul —

- oh boy

- she's so protective

- if you're out together, she'll subtly walk closer to you to shield you from unwanted attention

- wears a jacket for you whenever you decide to wear a miniskirt

- HEKSKSKSK YOU LOVE TEASING HER SM

- guiding her hand to your thighs

- she'll stiffen and yank her hand away and you pout :(

- she shoots you a glare, her eyes giving you a warning

- "wait until we get home."

- you sigh and decide to tease her more by riding your skirt up until your safety shorts r literally visible

- SHE'LL CLENCH HER JAW AT YOUR STUBBORNNESS AND IT'S LITERALLY SO FUCKING HOT????

- you'll just act innocent and bat your eyelashes at her

- "what? i didn't do anything wrong:("

- whenever you get the chance, you'll grind your ass against her

- she will.audibly.hiss.ohmyfuckinggosh

- you're so dead when the two of you finally get home !!!

- she's USUALLY a soft dom but don't expect her to go easy on you after you literally just teased her the whole day

- the miniskirt stays on while she fucks your brains out

- ends up with you drooling and moaning nothing but her name the whole night

- well... that's what you get when you don't listen!

- you obviously liked it though, so ever since that you started to wear miniskirts more often;)

"stop crying. you asked for this, didn't you?"

se mi —

- SHE INSISTS YOU WEAR THEM.

- will walk around the mall with her arm wrapped around your waist FOR EVERYONE TO SEE YOU'RE HERS

- shamelessly stares at your thighs and smirks if she sees you blushing

- "come here closer, baby"

- unlike with no-eul's, se-mi will be the one grinding on your ass

- literally fantasizes about bending you over and lifting your skirt up 

- OHMYGO

- if you're acting bratty, she'll bend you over her lap and spank you until your ass is red

- sometimes she makes you go commando 

- se-mi loves being risky

- she will sneakily brush her hand up your thighs

- but if you're not in the mood for anything and just really want to wear a cute miniskirt, she'll respect that

- because no is no <3

- although, if you like it like that

- she'll definitely have some fun with you

- secretly gets turned on whenever you wear miniskirts but doesn't admit it because she has to keep that 'cool' exterior of hers /eyeroll

- overall just loves your thighs so much. to the moon and back.

"can we go home now? i wanna rip that skirt off you"

jun hee —

- out of all four ABOVE (^), she's the most respectful

- "you look so pretty wearing that"

- if the miniskirt is too mini though, she'll get flustered

- she's the one who's gonna pull it down for you

- "baby, it's short like that on purpose!" "i don't care, it's too short!"

- acts like a mother to you

- she may complain sometimes but when you ask her to pick out your clothes

- she'll definitely go for the miniskirt with no hesitation

- she secretly likes it. she just isn't fond of the idea of other people seeing your legs

- her eyes will involuntarily flicker to your legs often as much as she hates to admit it

- "are you staring?"

- "what? no! i mean, maybe a little but—!"

- you just laugh at her while she rolls her eyes playfully at you

- but with that aside, she does really think you're breathtaking whenever you wear miniskirts. i mean she thinks you're breathtaking in general but something about you wearing miniskirts just gets her on

"you're starting to convince me to let you wear that more often." "glad to know."

hyun ju —

before her surgery: 

- you tried to tell her once that it's more than fine for her to wear a miniskirt

- she politely declines, telling you that she doesn't really feel confident yet

- you respect her decision, "okay, i'll be right here whenever you're ready!"

- instead, she admires you. her stares linger a little longer than usual

- though a little part of her wishes she could be as confident as you 

- not in an envy way though!!! NEVER.

- you inspire hyun-ju so much, and she's glad to have you. someone that helps her and understands her

- anyways, she's calm most of the time, you'll hear some compliments here and there

- "you look amazing."

- this literally makes your heart melt so much, the way she's staring at you out of love :((( <3

- her protective side though ?????

- "did that person tell you anything??" "no, they just said i look pretty!:)"

- her jaw clenches, but she does nothing about it.

- after all, what they said was right. it was undeniable, you really do look pretty

- you give her a little twirl sometimes, showing off your pretty outfit

- "you're showing off, aren't you?"

- your lips curve into a smile, "mhm! and you will too, one day."

- she smiles at the thought but doesn't say anything further

after her surgery:

- YAAAAAY !!!!!!!!

- 10000 MORE TIMES CONFIDENT 

- hesitates at first though, but that's totally fine!!!

- "are you sure i can pull this off..?" "BABY YOU WOULD LOOK THE HOTTEST."

- you decided to get her comfortable with skirts first

- "hmm... what do you say to wearing a skirt but just inside the house?" 

- "...okay." 

- you help her relax and get comfy with it. you're literally her safe space:(

- and then you hype her up so much to the point she gets convinced

- are you ready....

- TA-DA!! she finally wears a skirt outside the house !!

- not as short as yours though, she isn't ready for that yet. BUT !!! baby steps <33

- "we can just go for a quick walk, if you're fine with that."

- if anybody stares, you glare at them and turn to hyun-ju with a warm smile

- "don't mind them, they don't matter. you're doing so well"

- after a while, she grows more and more comfortable wearing a skirt

- then the both of you finally go on dates while wearing matching skirts !! yay 

"i realized people care way less than we think they do."

young mi —

- ADORES YOU SO SO MUCH

- she gets flustered easily, and you take advantage of that

- "sweetheart, do you think this length is good? or should i go for a shorter one?"

- will stutter and nervously fiddle with her fingers

- "i think— i think it's already too short.."

- "too short? come closer so you can see it better."

- you're an absolute tease 

- KEEPS HER HANDS TO HERSELF WHEN THE BOTH OF YOU ARE SITTING TOGETHER

- literally just stares forward, trying her hardest to not look at your bare legs

- you sulk though when you wear a miniskirt specifically for her but she won't even bat an eye on you:(

- "do you not like it? i can change.."

- she snaps her head towards you, "no no no! i just cant handle all that.." LMFAO

- "well you better learn how to, i'm not gonna give up until you look at me."

- spoiler alert!!!! you make her ride your thigh ♡

"unnie.." 

sae byeok —

- 'wear that idgaf i can fight' TYPE

- she literally has her pocket knife with her no matter where she goes

- she doesn't need it ngl, it's mostly for you

- I MEAN NOT TO USE ON YOU (unless you want her to;)

- you draw her attention on purpose: lifting your skirt up, brushing your thigh against her leg, bending down to pick something up

- you whine if you see her not reacting even once:(

- "if you want me to do something, then you'll have to be riskier."

- you'd literally do anything, even if that made you look so desperate

- you'd rub your thighs together and softly moan directly into sae-byeok's ear 

- ... still gets you nowhere

- HAND PLACEMENTTT

- makes your cunt throb sb when you feel her hot palm against your inner thigh

- her fingers might brush over your core if you're lucky

- but that's all she does, the rest happens at home

- aside from all that horny shit though, she really likes it when you wear miniskirts

- she can't quite place her finger on it as to why— miniskirts are just so you

- most of the time she doesn't even know what to say, mostly cause she can't think of a word to compliment you. simply saying that you're beautiful sounds such an understatement for her.

"sae, stop glaring at the man." "i'm gonna fucking gut him up if he doesn't rip his eyes away from you." shit left you speechless.

thanos —

- EASY ACCESS !!!!!!!!

- "holy shit baby, you look good. easier for me to—" "thanos!"

- he's SURPRISINGLY good at giving you outfit tips like ??? okay diva??

- "wear my leather jacket over that, it matches with the skirt."

- he wants to accompany you whenever you go shopping

- he's not one of those bitchy guys who complain about you taking so long at the store, he actually enjoys spending time with you shopping for your girly stuff

- just like se-mi, this man stares at your thighs shamelessly

- he's so sassy 

- "my legs look better." "baby, i love you, but shut the fuck up."

- curses in english whenever you come out of your room and he sees you wearing a miniskirt

- if he sees another man staring at HIS girlfriend, he'll call him out

- "isn't my girlfriend so stunning? you're lucky cause she's the last pretty thing you get to see before i fucking gouge your eyes out"

- he sulks when you scold him

- "might ban you from wearing a skirt outside from now on, just too many eyes."

- though he's jealous, deep down he's proud to call you as his

- like??? nobody else can't handle your fine ass but him

- he doesn't even need his drugs anymore; you're his drug

- he just can't have enough of you

"you're killing me with that outfit, you know that?"

Got bored, warbond subjective as hell tier list and reasoning (in readmore)

Final tally and thoughts:

S rank is a tie between the Servants of Freedom and Democratic Detonation, in part because both offered so many "winners" for loadout diversity or just being effective/providing utility.

A rank has the lone Steeled Veteran for offering a solid, reliable loadout against most threats in the game (but being a bit boring by playing it safe).

B rank has the heart of the warbonds with a lot of bonds offering roughly "a good thing" and then "some interesting things". Helldivers Mobilize, Cutting Edge, Chemical Agents, and Freedom's Flame all make up this tier in 'roughly' that order.

C rank has the more lacking offerings, usually giving one good thing and then a lot of duds or extremely conditional offerings. Urban Legends, Viper Commandos, and Polar Patriots in that order.

And the lone loser at D rank in this subjective list, Truth Enforcers holds out by offering roughly.... nothing! For the low low cost of 1000 super creds you too can have a poorly thought out gimmick shotgun and an SMG that does nothing special. The potential is there, but the execution, sure is rather lacking and boring.

Helldivers Mobilize:

It's hard to be harsh on a warbond that offers such a quantity of items and for free, but the impact of those offerings is worth considering- and altogether- not a bad showing! (but please stop giving so many duplicates of the same armor again and again) The boosters do a lot of the heavy lifting- being some of the most impactful boosts in the game, but offering a few weapons that do well against bots and a popular grenade variant of the no frills impact does mean this will grant players some meaningful choices that actually, you know, "Do the thing" and kill the enemy.

B rank. Not exciting. Tons of dupes (though some points for offering some med/engineer/fortified to begin with). No weapons that standout as top of their class so much as "in the running" (such as counter sniper).

Steeled Veterans:

Three solid weapons, a nice grenade, and some robo arm suits if you really want to throw strategems further means it's a solid warbond all things considered. Breaker incen for bugs, Dominator for bots (and squids), the senator as still one of the more popular side arms, and it even tosses in the incen grenade for some more utility to that slot.

A rank. It's not exciting, but it IS very useful. Really only missing out on the fun factor as it mostly grants you "gun to shoot at bugs, gun to shoot at bots, and a sidearm that isn't god awful".

Cutting Edge:

The sickle offers an infinite ammo light pen rifle which is nice. The blitzer offers an infinite ammo medium pen stunlocking shotgun which is nice. And the punisher plasma offers an AOE shotgun which is nice. All three aren't that impressive for other specifics of their design, but all three ARE among the unique options in their categories for one reason or another. That said- the stun grenade offers one of the most unique forms of utility to the grenade slot by granting any helldiver the option to just "turn off" a group of enemies whenever they please.

It's a solid B, carried by the grenade.

Democratic Detonation:

BOOM. The weapons and grenade all give you what they claim to be giving you, and that's very nice. The Crossbow and Eruptor (rip old shrapnel) grant divers a very reliable means of blowing things the hell up from their primary slot. Thermite and the grenade pistol offer utility the likes of which had never been seen before (post thermite buff that is lmao). Many people, myself included, would point at this warbond as being worth picking up just for the grenade pistol leading up to the latest bond's new competition in the form of the ultimatum- the rest is delicious explosive icing on the cake, and even post ultimatum the pistol offers a form of utility the ultimatum doesn't exactly match, very nice!

Our first S rank, easily. Between "fun", "impact" and what slots of equipment actually get new toys to play with, this one does the job and does it well.

Polar Patriots:

Controversially, I hate 99% of this warbond. It has its fans for various parts of it- some saying "Oh, pre nerf this was so great!" or "Post buff this one shines!" but whether any of that matters is up to me, my list. The Purifier is incredibly effective- easily one of my go to's in the current game against bots and squids. It lets you take on many of the targets that are balanced around "be accurate on my weakpoint or I pour damage at you" by just... ignoring the mechanic entirely and stunlocking them with an explosive that kills in very few shots. The incen impact is also effective. The rest of the warbond "exists".

C rank. I gave cutting edge a B despite only having "one good thing" by my count, but that bond also had 3 unique offerings that I can appreciate.

PP gives you another liberator, another defender (with discount stun), and a little brother to the senator. I'm not giving points for mediocre reskins that don't change nearly enough, or are simply worse "but with upside!" that doesn't matter.

Get it for the Purifier when you can justify spending 1000 creds for 1 weapon.

Viper Commandos:

Genuinely a mixed bag. You get melee armor which will either be worthless to you, your favorite thing because you like meme runs with melee, or your favorite armor because you like the ergonomics buff it provides. A really nice beret helmet. Experimental infusion which is a FANTASTIC booster. But then you get another liberator reskin. A sidearm shotgun which looks cool but doesn't "do" much, diminishing its value. And throwing knifes which are something I love is in the game, but "in a literal sense" is paramount to throwing since you're just tossing out fantastic grenade options for the funny haha "I can throw a handful of these things and kill a single charger :)" option. Which is good and bad. It's good it is there, it's not particularly good overall.

Overall, a bit of a C rank again.

It's closer to the Cutting Edge than it is the PP but the Cutting Edge really squeezed out a B rank by having multiple unique weapons to go with its "one good thing", while this has "some fun options (knife/bushwhacker)" that aren't very good to go with its one and a half good things (booster + armor sometimes).

Just barely falls out of B and into C.

Freedom's Flame:

Cookout baby! Oh, also unique offerings like the primary and secondary flamethrowers (mixed results but fantastic unique offering with some area denial utility) Also inflammable has newfound utility in unlocking the potential of a new weapon from another warbond, so tiny invisible points for that. Hellpod firebombs exist strictly to troll people which is just annoying.

Honestly a B rank, but only 'just'.

It lacks many things, a good variety of impactful slot options for instance, the booster sucks, the armor works better with an outside weapon than it does any of the actual flamethrowers-

-but what's here stands out for being either highly unique (primary and secondary flamethrowers) or highly effective (cookout vs bugs), and conditionally good armor is still 'conditionally good'. That's 2 unique things, 1 good thing, and a conditionally good thing (not that I'm treating count as dogma for my list), not bad.

It is funny that many fire based items just.... aren't here, and are instead in other bonds (like the PP gets the incen impact for whatever reason).

Urban Legends:

It's a meme bond, guys, I'm sorry. But how BAD a meme is it? Melee in helldivers is not good, don't believe the weirdos going "But I can kill a charger and save you ammo! Just give me 45 seconds to do it and also if any bug slaps my ass I'll die trying so waste your time covering me too!" Luckily, the bond isn't JUST melee. The directional shield is pleasant for players looking for 1 hand weapon gameplay- yes- even melee. It is a bizarre side grade to the ballistic at this point though, but side grades are side grades, can't complain about what it offers. Siege Ready is a very good passive, one of the tops for sure, so the armor is nice. Armed supply pods are a meme, it's nothing to write home about in the slightest when we have boosters that actually impact the game. The flame sentry is.... in need of an AI rework to differentiate it from default turrets. I'd say it has a lot of potential, but it behaves like a normal machine gun turret which prevents it from "intentionally" taking advantage of its fire, so buying a bond for what is basically just a machine gun turret with extra steps and less consistent range ain't the biggest sell atm. But then we get to the big boy. The anti tank emplacement. Yeah that thing fucks. I love that thing. 10/10 emplacement when used properly and like 7/10 if used poorly, adore the baby seat cannon.

Honestly, C again.

The anti tank emplacement is phenomenal, no one is arguing against that. And the armor is wonderful, again, no argument here.

But then the rest of the bond is either "A side grade to a default option (shield + flame turret) that doesn't really change anything about the default" or "kinda stinky (melee + booster)".

Nothing is atrocious, I'd say, I mean hey- no liberator reskin this time around, but it really does feel like the bond you get for 1 thing and the armor.

Maybe if the booster affected all pods then I'd say more on it and consider it inched up to B just for unique-ness sake, but I think it's a high C for giving a nice little variety of mid options and then the anti tank emplacement. I value the emplacement over the infusion from Viper for instance- high C.

Truth Enforcers:

Gotta be real with you. I don't like this bond so much it's still the only bond I haven't bought, and I have more than enough creds in my pocket Right Now to do so. Truth offers a very neat gimmick shotgun that.... is held back by awkward controls (lack of consideration for said controls, rather, requiring remapping to effectively use or to just say fuck it and use it as a stun gun forever). It also offers an infinite sprint booster that I couldn't care less about because you can just stim to run forever and if you can't afford to stim then you probably don't want the health drain (vitality booster at least mitigates). How often are you honestly marathoning the entire map in one go anyway, bud? An SMG that's fine but doesn't need to be an SMG, it isn't even 1 handed. It is fine though, just not my cup of tea. A sidearm that's fine but outperformed by all the utility sidearms like the grenade pistol/ultimatum. And an armor passive that sounds better than it ended up being, but hey, at least it's 'fine'. Fine is the keyword of today, but fine isn't interesting or fun or good so not the best thing for a warbond to be.

D rank. Hater goggles are on.

There is only one wholly unique and theoretically impactful item in the bond, and it's hampered by ammo swap controls and extremely low damage output. The rest is either "technically a weapon that you can kill with" or "technically a boost/passive that effects you".

Altogether the most useful part of the bond ends up being the SMG which is just a medium armor pen close range weapon with a laundry list of downsides, it's "fine", like the warbond itself.

Lacks impact.

Free of Thought is a good title though.

Chemical Agents:

What a WEIRD bond to try to define. It's been in the process of volatile patch notes since release tbh, though I suppose fire got shafted and then unshafted at release too. So the gas grenade is wonderful. Area denial with I believe slightly longer duration, confuse, and less damage than the fire brothers- it's just good and that's what counts. The Sterlizer is just bad, I'm sorry. Take up your support weapon slot to not kill enemies and do a worse job of area denial than the flamethrower which does kill enemies. It doesn't even persist a gas cloud like the grenade or strike- it lasts for a quarter of a second, that's bad! Increased status duration doesn't mean jack squat it's just bad! The dog though? The AI adjustment made it legitimately cool in my eyes. Congrats, a backpack slot that crowd controls, that's neat :) Doesn't need the clouds because it seeks out and spreads the status without taking up a full support weapon slot- not bad at all. The armor skill? dogwater lol With the skill you'll want to avoid gas. Without the skill you'll want to avoid gas. It Does Do Something assuming you walk through your gas like an idiot, so it's not entirely worthless at least. I guess. Still not a good skill and unlike the inflammable skill there isn't currently a "secret combo" that unleashes potential with this. and then the stim pistol exists. I appreciate a utility sidearm. I do still think it's awkward and the fact that it's not full stims is weird to manage too. Benefits from infusion though which is neat.

B rank. A couple good things, some bad things, and an interesting thing, I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and say the dogbreath buff brings it from C to B.

Servants of Freedom:

Bud, this one's just fun. The double edge offers us a weapon that actually benefits from a "build" in this game, a unique and new idea for helldivers lol, and it's pretty nice in its spot when you play to its strengths :) Unique and conditionally good. The ultimatum shook up the meta a ton and it's such a fun little pocket nuke. And the hellbomb is the veritable "silly option" except with some genuinely unique utility since we can now hellbomb things we never could before! The rest, ehhhh. The armor is a teamkill trap that accomplishes very little. The grenades are neat! But not exactly good in comparison to the actually good grenade options- maybe if it like... regenerated or something? Like if it was an infinite grenade option with a cooldown so you could use it more often? IDK not my problem. But the highs are really high in this warbond.

Despite the lower end offerings, by giving a weapon that offers unique gameplay (edge), a weapon that changed the landscape of most loadouts out of nowhere (ultimatum), and a silly option that's somehow also conditionally really good (hellbomb) this really is a fantastic warbond worthy of an S rank.

And a bonus is that all 3 of these high points take different slots in a loadout! That's nice :)

Def have a lot of Halo inspiration from her armour! Her OG armour type took a lot of spartan inspiration (because I didn't really like how un-bulky the day-1 armour was) until I started to flesh the design out to fit the lore!

Though I do throw in my own falvour every now and then, since I have my own reservations about the HD armor design!

Little Stuff:

For shows, I’m all about Bluey (can’t go wrong with a classic 🦋), Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous (dinosaurs for the win), Thomas & Friends (never gets old), and Thomas is a timeless favorite. I'd like to watch a lot more little stuff than I do tbh.

Big Boy Stuff:

When it comes to movies and shows, I’m into The Office US (classic office shenanigans), Silo (sci-fi mystery), Severance (mind-bending!), The Boys and Gen V (superheroes, but make it gritty), Stranger Things (the thrill of it all!), DanDaDan (anime that’s got it all), Castlevania (dark fantasy), Pantheon (thought-provoking), Cobra Kai (still karate-kicking), Scavengers Reign (adventure!), Ponyo, Spirited Away, Howl’s Moving Castle—basically, most Studio Ghibli movies are magical, Squid Game (intense!), 3 Body Problem (sci-fi drama), Black Mirror (mind-games), Nimona (such a fun ride), Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance (puppet greatness), The Gentleman (sharp, witty), Teen Titans (teen hero power!), and Creature Commandos (quirky and cool!).

Some all-time favorites include Breaking Bad, Battlestar Galactica, Starship Troopers, Wolf of Wall Street, Secret Level, Love Death + Robots, Marvel Avengers Assemble cartoon, 90's TAS Batman, Spider-Man and X-Men cartoons (such nostalgia!), Buffy (she was my first crush!), Angel (love the spinoff!), American Psycho, Lord of the Rings, Jurassic Park, Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame (epic).

There’s a lot of variety in my faves... 😅what’s one you’d recommend for me?

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes was really good. It was a lot like Metroid Prime 1 (shocking). I played it on my Steam Deck through Primehack, so it played just like the remaster as well.

The gameplay was solid. No complaints there. I had heard that Echoes is more difficult than Prime 1. That's sort of true, but I didn't have much trouble with the game except for a couple of bosses. And even then, I never died, and really, it was just me throwing myself at the boss until I found the gimmick/solution. (After I wrote this I read they tweaked the difficulty for the wii version, which is what Primehack is running, so maybe that's why it wasn't so bad)

Graphically, the game was good. I never had any frame drops. The textures were clear, and there were no pop-ins or anything. There was enough variance in the environments. I thought the sky boxes were really pretty and sometimes I would just stop and look at the ones in the Temple Grounds, Agon Wastes, and Sanctuary Fortress. I thought Torvus Bog was really pretty confusing and bland. I really liked the Sanctuary Fortress for being a big sci-fi megastructure.

Finding the lore was cool, and I found the conflict between the Luminoth and the Ing interesting. It really leans into that environmental storytelling and lore from descriptions strategy that Dark Souls uses so well. The story of the game itself is pretty standard. At least Samus has a whole one (1) character to talk to this time. Even if she's mute.

Solid 8.5/10. It's more Metroid Prime. There's not a lot of innovation here, but Retro had a winning strategy. Don't fix what isn't broken.

This section is already too long. More thoughts under the cut

I went through the Temple Grounds and Agon Wastes wide eyed and determined. I thought the dark world was interesting. Hopping from safe zone to safe zone was fun, but I can see how some would find it tedious. I'm glad you get the Dark Suit early. Although I don't particularly like how it looks.

About halfway through the Torvus Bog, fatigue and confusion started to set in. I guess it's fitting that the Bog level is where it sort of felt like a slog.

I hate those bipedal Dino things that you have to shoot in the back. I hate the squid guys that you have to wait until they charge you to damage. The enemies in this area had crappy gimmicks, but at least they're all in this space, I suppose.

I also hate the space pirate commandos (before you get the Dark visor) and the Ing Hunters, but at least you just have to have patience to fight those and you aren't constantly strafing underwater in a pond the size of an above ground pool.

I made myself keep going though and I'm glad I did because the Sanctuary Foretress ROCKS. I'm a sucker for big sci-fi megastructures and it delivered there. I enjoyed how different it was from the natural environments of the other areas. I thought the mechanized enemies were neat.

I could absolutely see someone getting through all that, only to be told you need to find the Sky Temple Keys in areas you've already been to, to throw up their hands and say, "ok nevermind, I'll just look up the ending". But i think those people would not have been scanning every little thing they could find. The clues for those keys are handed straight to you, and the rooms you need to be in are highlighted in the entry. You just gotta use your brain, people!

There were moments when I was not using my brain either though. Which were the boss fights. Overall, I thought they were cool and good. However, I would throttle the Grapple Guardian with my own hand and arm cannon if I could (see Torvus Bog dinos). Each phase of Emperor Ing I have my issues with. But there were some good standouts too. I actually liked the Spider Guardian fight, I thought it was a good implementation of the morph ball combat. On the other hand, I did not like the Caretaker Class Drone. That was not good morph ball combat. I thought Quadraxis was a good fight. It was a cool way to mix morph ball and regular combat. My favorite bosses were the Dark Samus fights. Mostly because it could be just us wailing on each other.

I can't comment on the music because I am an anomalous person who likes to play games in silence. So I didn't hear it much. Although what I did hear was every explosion sound like it was being put through a phaser effect pedal.

I finished the game with 79% items and a playtime of 15:59. I missed two E tanks, four missle expansions, and a handful of other stuff. But I thought that completion level was pretty good for not using a walkthrough.

Again, strong 8.5/10. I'm not sure what I'll hop into next. Probably not Prime 3 because I expect it'll just be even more Prime.
