      @@Mac14329 Yeah, she most always perceived Ridley as a threat. I wasn't a huge fan of how Other M had her react to seeing Ridley since she'd already killed him a dozen times by that point, but if they'd stuck with their original idea of making OM a prequel to the original Metroid then it would've been great.

      @@L1LegoAnimations I meant that Ridley was a much more personal matter.
      As for the "killed him a dozen times bit", those times where Samus defeated Ridley, he never really died until Super Metroid. Before that, he would either disappear in a fiery display, drop to the ground motionless or fall down an abyss. In Super Metroid, his body combusted and crumbled like an alien pterosaur cookie. And with the later explosion on Planet Zebes, anything that remained of him was no doubt dematerialized. As in, nothing left. So Ridley as we knew him was gone, and wouldn't be coming back. So you can imagine what must've been going through Samus' mind when he saw that the monster that killed her family and ruined her life was somehow STILL alive even after his body breaking apart and a planetary explosion was supposed to have erased him from existence. If I was in Samus' place, I'd probably drop dead of a heart attack.

      @@Mac14329 Idk man, lotta those boss fights ended in fairly convincing deaths to me. I know that can probably be blamed on the fact that they're video games more than anything, but still. She's fought and beat him a dozen times, every time walking away borderline scott-free while doing enough damage to Ridley to know she at least _could've_ killed him if she somehow didn't. By Other M's time, I think I'd be more annoyed with him than scared.

      honestly, love how super metroid had a very cool gotcha moment that i feel alot of people dont recognize or appreciate, which is that just before fighting kraid, you fight a tiny version of him thats very similar to the kraid from metroid 1.
      It goes even further since mini kraid feels very anticlimatic and just kind of there, very static, similar to metroid 1's, and since on your first playthrough, without sequence breaking, this *should* be your first boss, the fake mini kraid is kinda meant to make you think oh so this is how its gonna be, until you find out about the real kraid, who's far bigger, and sets an expectations for how the rest of the bosses are gonna be.

    Funfact about Prime: it's speculated that Kraid would've been fought in the arena that the Omega pirate ended up in. The only evidence of this being that the concept art has the same phazon mushrooms, and the Omega pirate reuses a lot of attacks from the Elite pirate. A somewhat similar situation happened with Thardus replacing the Ice Titan, but there are less developmental details that can serve as evidence for the change.

      What about it looks "horrendous?" Ridley was brought back in Prime as a cyborg after his defeat in the original Metroid, so obviously that would've been the explanation for Kraid's appearance as well, thus the cybernetic helmet. He's got blue veins on his stomach because the plot of that game involves the space pirates experimenting with a mutagen called Phazon, which they inject into anything and everything.

      @@ZebboGeesucks i believe the horrendous part comes in that unlike Ridley, who had prosthetic parts that fit into his body and looked anatomically fitting to his original design, Kraid has half of his skull missing and just replaced with a dome. I highly doubt those space pirates care about looks but one cannot help to wonder if he is himself or being controlled by that "enhancement".

      @SomaCruztheDemigodofBalance Před 2 lety +1

      @@RodH-pj1py Phazon enhancement makes that a moot point, since it can control him anyway. Ridley was just more intact, due to his cellular regeneration being more effective. He's also apparently able to transfer his consciousness between clone bodies, if necessary. However, it's never explained how he does it. The only thing that is explained is that all Ridleys are the real Ridley, and not just copies. Kraid is not the same: he has a whole bunch of miniature copies that are shown in SM, and anyone of these copies can grow to the full Kraid size, as they are natural children of the Kraid race.

    Here’s my question- how the everlasting hell did Kraid get off Zebes? I headcanon that the Space Pirates evacuated him after Samus defeated him in Super Metroid (but obviously before she destroyed Mother Brain) and Raven Beak captured him later, but a ship big and strong enough to carry Kraid would be really, really noticeable. The Pirates are really lucky Samus spends most of Super underground, or they would have lost even more soldiers in that operation.

    • @IndominusRex-wc1ey
      @IndominusRex-wc1ey Před 29 dny

      Tbf, Zebes is a big ass planet, and it takes a WHILE to go from murking Kraid to even just brawling with Ridley for the second time, so some dude was like "yo Lord Kraid's unconscious and complaining about a belly ache in his sleep I think the hunter got him" and he got carried away
      Or something like that
