just play zero mission

no

I think it's cool that they made it such a gauntlet. The fight has character. It's a bit like a multi-phase Dracula fight from a Castlevania game, but with a more organic motivation for the multiple phases (that being your need to get past the Zebetites to reach the brain). It's still pretty crude, but the fact that there are three different hazards threatening you simultaneously, plus the tight and varied terrain you're stuck dealing with, makes it more interesting than lots of boss fights from that time.

It's shit. It made the game far easier and added that stupid part at the end where you play with the suit.

Nigga it is iconic

>>10583135
It takes like a minute to kill it. It doesn't even move. Your thread is pretty excruciating though.

>>10583135
That's the whole point of it.

AND HAVE YOU NOT GROWN HAVING OVERCOME IT
YOU SHOULD BE ON YOUR KNEES THANKING NINTENDO FOR FORGING YOU INTO A MAN

The art style is horrendous too, it took what I disliked about fusion and made it worse.

Shoot the mf!!!

SHOOT!

METROID IS NOT A GAME

SAMUS IS REALLY A MAN

ALWAYS HAS BEEN

MOTHER BRAIN NEVER DIED AND HAS BEEN TRYING TO PSYCHE THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE OUT THROUGH WICKED PSYCHIC WARFARE ALL THESE YEARS

END THE DECEPTION NOW

DEFEAT MOTHER BRAIN AT ALL COST

if you run out of resources, the game remembers how many zebetites have been destroyed. you can retreat and farm for energy and missiles, then come back and finish the fight
and it works as the last line of defense for Mother Brain. if all the organic threats failed, there's machinery designed to kill anything that comes in that room. it's not even particularly smart. it just keeps firing no matter what.

> mother brain 2 hard
bruh freeze the rinkus

You just make sure to go in with max health and face tank shit.
Never try to dodge things, you're just raising your chance to fall in to lava. Just let yourself get hit while standing in a safe position so you wont fly off the platform. Then just spam missiles hard.
Problem is you're likely trying too hard, just ignore shit and pump missiles and move on quickly and it ends up being significantly easier.
Not like you need to have any health remaining after mother brain is dead.

Would be cool if the mother brain had tentacles that could grab samus and rap faster than eminem

Both of you are good examples of retards who substitute contrarianism for a personality.

Know you know about the economics of Metroid missles.

>>10583135
Literally beat this for the first time today. It’s hard. I kept getting knocked into the lava on the left and couldn’t get out. I had to go in with full health and only had 27 left at the end.

Cool game. Glad to finally finish it. Shame I had to look at a map a few times but I never would’ve thought to bomb the purple ground or shoot the ceiling or that the lava was fake

Congrats!

>>10583135
Yeah, its pretty frustrating. But that's why its called Nintendo hard.

>bruh freeze the rinkus
Correct, only a limited number can spawn at one time, so freeze all of them and no more can spawn.

Pretty much this. Not that it's a hard fight but it's pretty much made as a "did you collect enough shit?" check. If you have enough energy tanks and missiles you just spam them and ignore everything else.

I never beat mother brain either. It was always a mediocre game but this boss fight pushed it into unplayable like you say
