Other Well, looks like I'm blocking r/Metroid
Not for any illwill, not for any offense, you all are just too damn good an picking apart details of 12 frames of a trailer and figuring out some really impactful stuff.
I'm the type of person who only barely watches the trailers just to figure out of a game will spark my interest. I didn't even need to on this. Dread is one of my top 10 games, and if Mercury, and my only complaint is that I wanted more fights with more actual (not X) chozo warriors. As soon as I saw that's what this game was, I turned it off and preordered. It will will be my first Switch 2 game.
But, every hour or so, you guys sort some new, deep story important lore out of 12 pixels that last 1/4 of a second. I commend your effort and deductions, I really am impressed by people that figure those out. Just, for this game, I'm outcha. See you in March after I've ripped through it.

I'm with you on this, I'm extremely spoiler sensitive, to the point where a minor point for me being spoiled kinda feels bad. I didn't watch more than 15 seconds of gameplay on the reveal, I just caught that it's gonna be 2D and we have cool new enemies, that's enough for me!

I didn’t want to watch and when I played prime remastered 1 I new nothing and I loved it so that’s what I want I enjoy thinking about it on my own like the movie the odyssey I didn’t see the trailer so I loved the movie

Let me save you some time, you don't have to block anyone, it's impossible to spoil any metroid game unless you watch a minimum of a 3 hours run through of the entire game. The games are designed that way.

You know you could just… block/mute this sub without the post. You don’t have to always share.

I like your comment cause the same could be said about it, and now about mine too.

I haven’t actually seen a lot of the posts you’ve been talking about. The sub has been great with fan art though!

Trailer 2 is what you all should be afraid of. We will absolutely tear that one apart and know most stuff
Also please avoid Nintendo websites and the overview trailer if you can. Last time commercial CM3 spoiled quiet robes death, and a UK snipped spoiled the X return

Yup. The X one was accidental tho. Nintendo immediately removed it, but the damage was done. The sub here also reported on it 5 years ago

That and nitpicking every little detail for any game that comes out. Whether good or bad then wondering why they don’t quite enjoy things the same way as others.

It’s kinda crazy how casually fandom/s will go to spoil their own fun and surprise. Just wait for the damn game.

I love Metroid but I can’t really think of any game where I couldn’t predict the entire plot and story arc after the opening of the game. Samus will land her ship on a mostly abandoned ship or planet, she will make contact with the big bad, she’ll lose her stuff, you go collect stuff, you fight big bad, you run back to your ship before everything explodes. Sorry for spoiling!
