I'm glad 2d metroid is back and the game is doing well. The animations are beautiful, there are lots of environments to explore, and I can see the controls being tight and responsive if you aren't using Nintendo's awful 1st party controllers. That being said I am so sick of games being difficult for the sake of being difficult. The old metroid titles were challenging, but they never tipped past the point of being frustrating. I understand some people enjoy a lot of challenge when they play games and that's fine, but enough people don't want playing games to be a stressful experience. Life is stressful enough and I don't have the luxury of time to "git gud."
