Figured I should make a thread of all my Nestavire videos, even if they're all from the old Unity build.
Gonna start organizing these videos under #Nestavire
It's wild that this year we got completely opposing stories between Team Cherry and Yacht Club about the sustainability of their big hit.

Perfect screenshot. Worf as a focal point is already killer, then your eyes travel to Data in the friar haircut and you think "this can't possibly get any better," and then there's the finishing blow of Geordi in his space visor plucking a lute

I am here to remind you this is the best thing I have ever made.
Another idea for team attacks in #Nestavire was a custom environment node that summons enemies to take position within specific cover/vantage points.
It then executes a custom scripted sequence where each enemy pops out and attacks in order.
In other words, I recreated Time Crisis.

Also got the melee tutorial set up for #Nestavire
The input seems to be the biggest hurdle of this control scheme whenever I got others to try the prototype, so I'm hoping I've managed to correct that.

One of the many dangerous denizens of #Nestavire are the Shriek BaAAAa- seeds. Shriek Seeds.
Once you've caught their attention, they'll try to swarm you in groups or ambush you from unexpected locations.

Yeah that new Warframe update needs a few more hotfixes.
I have not been able to play a single session of the new rebellion mode.

My stance remains that the Prime games are all pretty close in quality even if there is a gradual shift in priorities throughout them.
This is the most linear of the franchise even when it suggests it might have a structure closer to Prime 2.

This is definitely a sequel to Prime 3 (Derogatory), but also, it's a sequel to Prime 3 (Complimentary).
The outstanding visuals, music and bosses do a lot to offset it's more controversial elements.

I kinda hate how my brain was so fatigued through out the day trying to finish up these videos, only for it to get a second wind an hour before midnight because it came up with a new idea.
Like come on dude, I could've used all that energy a bit earlier.

It's a shame that stuff like the Prime key hunts or SotN's inverted castle are (rightfully) derided by most because I really like the idea of metroidvanias testing your map knowledge once you've explored every nook and cranny.
At least the carrier quests in the HK games were better received.

Metroid Prime 4 Out of Context
Yeah I'm not a big fan of VI-O-LA so far.
It's not bad by any means but it really reminds me of the K-Drives from Warframe where the only way to comfortably move around is keep your movement aligned with the camera, otherwise things get real messy real quick.

The fruits of my labour as a wannabe game dev lie not in the games I've made, but in my ability to spot Mixamo animations in the wild.

Unfortunately the length and pacing of the game really holds it back.
There's more than enough quality enemy types and gimmicks to keep the game fresh but it is still spread so thin, it becomes tiresome by the end.

It's a pretty fun tactical puzzler with some killer visuals so long as you don't go in expecting something adjacent to Persona or SMT.

I'm surprised I never said this explicitly in any part of my Backloggd review or subsequent posts here (it's come up elsewhere), but ultimately I think the most consistent throughline of Metroid Prime 4 reception can be summed up as:
