I think it's more like "what, we have to go the ship NOW?" As opposed to, you know, later.

The difficulty scaling in this game is perfection. You've basically been to every area by the time you go to Elun, so releasing the X creates an in-story reason that scales the creatures appropriately to deal with your enhanced weapons. Dread is amazing.

When I first played I thought you could only use it once, and then I watched another playthrough and saw the "3 times" in the description and I was so upset that I didn't know that sooner. Almost at the end of my hard mode playthrough and it's been so dang useful.

Facepalm moment: he forgets to use the flash shift in the most necessary moments like walking throught Emmi zones or fighting bosses. 49:12 he uses it when is not necessary. DUDE COME ON! 🤣🤣🤣.

I have been watching all your other Metroid videos and love them just as much as your Zelda videos. Metroid wasn't a series I grew up with, but I am loving the games. Prime 2 was my first Metroid game. I hope you will play the Prime games as well. Keep up the great work.

I don’t have a PS5, but one of my best friends does. The haptic features are amazing. But I think the most compelling haptic feedback I will ever experience is using the morph ball and phantom cloak in an E.M.M.I. zone and the E.M.M.I. is not going to leave. I guess I have been way too distracted by the game, but when I was where Dee Bee Geek is at 33:42 in this upload I first noticed that the rumble on the Joy Cons mimics a heavy heartbeat.

I came to comment exactly that. It's 50% useful for boss or mini boss battles.

What I enjoy most about Metriod Dread is that it just keeps accelerating, pumping more and more powerups into you as you approach the end

This is such a sick game. Played it religiously over the holidays

Flash Shift makes the Chozo Warriors fights alot easier.

46:55 His expression is the true metroid item hunting experience

Some people may think that Pulse Radar is hand-holdy, I just think it's a better option than using 75 missiles.

I do like the fact that, even though the pulse radar is in the game and just shows all the hidden breakable blocks, It's obtained so late in the game, that it's treated as a completionist aid, rather than being a hand holding crutch. Cause getting to the point where you acquire it, already assumes that you know your way around the environment, and there for wouldn't really need it just to progress in the game. It is how ever very useful for any remaining power up searching, as constant backtrack through the game gets very frustrating if there's only a few very specific blocks left that are hidden and you hadn't happened on yet. similar to the map screen having sections of the map flash white if there's a hidden power up that you got near, but didn't find yet. It's a hint system for completing the game, since you'd already had to show you can competently play it just to get to that point of the game.

I love how many people get trolled by that sensor door. It's been so long since one of those was a thing and you got that power up that everyone forgets how to deal with them. Also, impressive how good DeeBee is doing on the bosses without using Flash Shift.

I love how everyone is going on about the Flash Shift and not about anything else. 😂

This game is so cool

He should use slide and flash shift more often.

Samus, after being goaded into releasing the X parasite on ZDR: "Adam, I may have done an oopsie."

I recommend using the flash shift during combat more. It really helped me avoid attacks far more often then I would have been able to otherwise.

I’m loving this. Don’t forget you can slide, and also flash shift up to 3 times in a row. You’ll need it for boss battles

its been a blast watching so far. one of the most fun playthroughs of dread if you ask me

I originally missed most of this stream so its fun to watch this again, also the gravity suit in Dread is almost the peak drip in Metroid, save for the final suit in prime 2.

Now I'm convinced that Dee's mod team is just there to watch him suffer during his streams, why else would they not have reminded him of the flash shift throughout this entire playthrough thus far?

The East Enders credits get me every time 🤣😂🤣😂

Deebee playing on hard mode by refusing to phase shift and slide. The Deebee way!

Little sad to see Dee Bee not using the Flash Shift very much this episode. I went a long time without realizing how useful it is so I can't blame him, and I'm also nearly done with my 2nd playthrough so I've had much more time to work with it, so I'm not too bummed. Another thing is that there were a lot of moments where he kept spamming missiles against enemies instead of countering them. There are a lot of enemies that take a ton of missiles to kill, but attack exclusively in counters that will destroy them immediately. But even with these gripes, it's just so cool to see him experience all of this for the first time. And I'm sure I did plenty of these same things on my first run as well, haha.

That intro 🌵🤣

I don't think DeeBee remembered that he has Flash Shift

This game has many wallpaper worthy shots

You should use flash shift (A + left or right) during battles :D It would make things WAY EASIER to avoid attacks and go in the back of an ennemy.

Phase Shift, Dee Bee! Phase Shift!

Best looking Gravity Suit, period.

Well wait till he meets raven beak lol. The boss battle that makes you use everything you learned lol.

Yay part 3!

DBG you can use the shift to fight...

so lemme get this straight you forgot you had the slide and dash abilities?

34:04 HOW DID YOU GET AWAY WITH THAT?!

I managed to get pulse radar early just after or before kraut boss and the morph bomb it help chess that boss

Dee, please use the dash, trust me, it will come handy in a lot of fights and even around the map! And use the shift too!! :'3

Lol you really don’t flash shift enough

42:13 Oh.. Bollocks

Someone tell this man to use flash shift! It is excellent at dodging enemy attacks!

Read out loud that he can use normal shot against robots with plasma beam. Still uses missiles against them.

I am having a blast playing metroid dread its awesome

I went that way my first time through, was lost forever

USE. THE. DASH. ABILITY!!!!!

Every game, the Gravity suit is one massive "BET."

Need to play hollowknight now

"Put it in me squasher!" Err, you might want to look up what "squasher" means...

Good play deebee

Yeah the pulse radar is nice but also not nice to have at the same time. I thought the game was quite good but they still haven't made much improvements to the 2d games imo such as with collectibles. That's the 1 thing I hope they do better even for mp4. Also having emmis as a sorta themed section to the game was cool but I didn't like them much (too trolly even when you play smart), not helped by the brains being repetitive and easy. The map design was diverse tho and it looked amazing, and the combat was more interesting, a decent step up from before. It's hard to strike a good balance with this type of game though tbf, it seemed both easy and hard at the same time 😅

Are you doing some kind of challenge where you're not using flash shift or whatever it's called?

I wish he would use the dash

I've never seen a man brute force his way to victory while ignoring key abilities quite like this man. Come on chat, where were you guys to tell him about dashing? Be better.

Metroid!!! Great! P.S. my babygirl loves that freakin cactus haha

Now I have to ask, what is your favorite samus suit?

90% of the comments to this video: FLASH SHIFT

After Metroid dread you should also play Metroid another M. It is the sequel to Super Metroid

Escue the super frantic electric bug boss almost made me drop the game permanently. But I eventually built up the resolve to come back and finally beat it a whole month later. Then on my second run through the game I opted to cheese it by preparing a Shinespark before it showed up and instantly cut its HP by like 75%. (This still took a decent number of tries to do.)
