The fact that Ridley is incredibly smart as shown in the manga and can talk honestly makes him way more terrifying. Would have been cool to have that in a game in my book.
Imagine Ridley comes back as this gigantic dragon that just stalks around and sizes up Samus, all while giving the most devastating and terrifying villain speech and talking for the first time in the games, only to be promptly blown up for the dozenth time
What would be funnier is if Ridley was not just intelligent but 200 IQ, just imagine a 30 foot giant pterodactyl thing that just starts saying “Hello my good sir my name is Ridley Wraith Ridlingham I do inquire what are you up to in the location of planet we call Zebes? “
I guess the cloning process is, indeed, just cloning. As such, all the Ridleys we fight are, to put simply, babies. Possibly more advanced mentally than a real baby with the help of some accelerated mental development tools during the clone accelerated growth, but still far from a naturally developed mind. It make sense that Ridley is a raging beast during games.
6:57 I find it important to note that Samus' suit is NOT fused with her body, she just couldn't take it off while unconscious, which led the doctors to remove parts of it leaving her with the fusion suit. The fusing with her body thing seems to be a translation issue, because it's literally not mentioned in the original japanese version (nor in the german localisation for that matter). This is also proven by her literally being a normal looking human in both the death animation in Fusion and Dread, as well as the ending screen, where she is wearing the crop top and shorts.
yeah i think its more of a self defence feature that the doctors had to forcibly bypass to save her which in turn destroyed large chunck of her suit. since the suit itself is partially biomatter it was healing itself in fusion giving it that pulsating texture, then in dread it was mostly healed by then looking more like exposed muscel fibre
It's not fused to her, but it is linked to her dna. Which is why the X parasite was able to regrow the missing parts and replicate the suit. Also, I think it's possible that, when powered on, the suit does fuse with her body in some way, given the Morphball exists.
There is an ending in Fusion that shows her with some weird growths on her arms. Not sure if it was part of her Zero suit but i think there were implied mutations from the Metroid DNA. Amazing game!
Not gonna lie, I fully believed as a kid on my initial playthrough that her suit had actually fused with her body as a result of the X infection and was under the impression she was irreversely scarred under the suit. Kind of like Deadpool.

Man, have i been waiting for this video. I love your content, and finally seeing a video on what is basically my favourite game series ever is amazing. The style is great as always, and the fact that you always add little bits of humor instead of just explaining what goes down while also keeping them relatively short always makes your videos uniquely enjoyable. This is great, have a good day Chase
It's really nice seeing your art style evolve from the FF9 Video and Mother series exploration (some of my favorites videos btw) and it's really cool seeing you post, as you're one of my favorite CZcamsrs. If you could, it'd be nice if you could cover the The World Ends With You series. It's such a great series and with your humor and way you draw, I feel like it'd be a great pick.
@@setster007 I have heard exactly 1 person IRL pronounce it "tweh wee." Everyone else I've ever talked to just says the full mouthful of a game title aloud because it's easier than trying to figure out how to pronounce the acronym. 😆
The suit did not fuse with her body, she was just unconscious while it was bound to her (she can summon the suit at will, and it binds to her body while active), that's why parts had to be removed. we know this because when she dies, the suit disappears entirely, and she has her zero suit in Dread.
@@zachtwilightwindwaker596 what do you mean "she looked conscious??" she was on an operating table and it was literally stated in the game that she wasn't conscious.
@@zachtwilightwindwaker596 that's clearly meant to be artistic and is not relevant to any of my points, as I'm talking about the game in relation to the misinformation provided in the video.
@@zachtwilightwindwaker596 In "the video shown here," they *_also_* depicted her with two hands at 4:05 and 7:57 (even though the suit does NOT have a right glove- just a cannon,) and showed her gun on the wrong arm at 2:01, 2:03, 2:07, 2:30, 4:10, 4:39, 7:08, and 7:49 (again, the RIGHT arm of the suit is a cannon. Yes, I'm aware half of those timestamps are reuses of the same image). *I think it's safe to say they took artistic liberties instead of going for accuracy.* I'm not complaining about it though- I feel nitpicky even recording the timestamps. 😣
Good video, although I feel like you should've included the fact that Raven Beak gave some of his DNA to Samus which means that Samus has DNA from two different races of Chozo
Samus' DNA is what happens when you don't know how to build a character in an evolution game so you just set everything to max and watch your abomination of a species take over the ecosystem
One thing is that Samus's suit wasnt fused by the X. It is part of her body all the time, it therefore cant be normally removed while shes unconscious.
Metroid fusion shows them creating hybrids, as shown by the fish/space pirate fusions that appear in the aquatic sector of the B.S.L. station. Furthermore, free floating X can transform into other enemy variants over time if left unattended.
The Sylux hype is to prepare for Metroid Prime 4, which revealed that he'll be the big bad of that game. He's been lurking Samus after Prime Hunters as one of the endings of Prime 3 shows Sylux's ship (and recently in Federation Force, looking at the Metroid). Also, you forgot to mention that Raven Beak is also Samus' surrogate father by donating his DNA to infuse, and also he massacred the Thoha Chozos in SR388 prior to the events of Metroid 1, which he indirectly responsible for all of this Metroid and X Parasites mess in the first place, which gave attention to the Federation and the Space Pirates. Nice video. I'd like to see a Xenoblade X lore or the entirety of Fire Emblem (if you can't, just Shadow Dragon aka FE1)
Instant Sub and Notif! Loved the art and pacing of this, especially doing a quick recap at the end to tie it up! I love listening to you go off about these games ^w^.
Next topic you should do is final fantasy tactics. That story has a lot of interesting back and forth between the cast church and groups. The backstory alone is bery interesting to see how things ended up that way.
I only ever saw Metroid games at a friend's house way back when. I kept thinking, "Did they NOT not destroy Ripley, then?" I thought I was missing big chunks of the story in between our hangouts, but no, the stories really are just like that. Another great video, another great art evolution. You're always improving, man. Here's some games I would love to see you do a video on (and see how you handle the art styles!): - Zero Escape series - Phoenix Wright/Ace Attorney - Rune Factory - The World Ends with You - Danganronpa (good luck trying to piece together the story, the spinoffs just confused me) I will say I kinda *don't* want you to do Kingdom Hearts because it's been done a million times. That's just me, though!
What a beautiful drawings I love seeing samus a little adorable And I was a little confused seeing the Metroid returns game case before talking about Metroid fusion for the explanation I think i didn't play returns too much...
Honestly I would love to see you do an "Explained" video for the games in the 'Marth' Fire Emblem timeline. Like Shadow Dragon, Echoes, and Awakening. A timeline of the Sonic series, or just the classic games, would also be fun to watch. Castlevania could be useful, since I don't think many people will have played that series fully. And finally, I would LOVE to see your take on the Persona or Kingdom Hearts series. You're really good at explaining things, and I think you could do those franchises justice
Metroid Prime didn't really take Samus' Phazon suit, it ripped the Phazon corruption out of her suit as a means to survive, in doing so, it took her suit's blue prints along with parts of Samus' DNA to birth Dark Samus, who is surprisingly resistant and regenerative.
Thank you!! I like to think my channel doubles as a realistic timeline of how long it takes to get better at art. So many art 'tutorials' are about getting good at art in weeks for month when for me, and probably most people, it takes years of gradually and slowly getting better. Wishing you luck on your art journey as well!
When you led off with three factions to be aware of, for some reason, my immediate thought was, those that think only the 2D games are canon, those that think all the games are canon, and those that think that Prime isn't canon but Other M is.
4:35 excellent video and great drawings! They truly capture the character of the Metroid designs in a lovely way, as a long time Metroid fan I'm happy to see the series reach this wonderful channel of yours. Although I'm afraid your depiction of the Metroid's evolution here doesn't seem to be too accurate as the final stage here looks more like Arachnus [which isn't of the Metroid species] than any of the later stages of the Metroid evolution. The only two bipedal Metroids are Zetas and Omegas and neither resemble this little fella.
This is very well done. I'm a major fan of the Metroid series and have played every game... starting with the first on the NES... when it came out (yes, I'm an old man). I have to say this is the best Cliff's Notes version of the story of the entire series I have ever seen. If I ever hear of anyone who wants to get into Metroid, but wants to start with a later title like Dread... I'll try to keep this video in mind so they have an idea of the background story.

Some games/series I think would be interesting for you to cover: - Chrono Trigger (you decide if you wanna go full Cross or not) - Star Fox (another Nintendo series, just say you dunno where it'll go next) - Solatorobo: Red the Hunter (a very underrated and rare DS game, it's best to play it via an emulator, has a LOT of interesting story stuff to talk about that you will definitely not be expecting, the RPG Monger did a video on it last year) - Asura's Wrath (another CC2 game, may be fun) - The World Ends With You (very much up your alley) - Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective (see if ya like it)
the infection did not cause her suit to fuse with her body. It is mystically linked to her, and thus has no natural openings like a normal suit of armour since she can summon and relinquish it at will as seen in zero mission.
Just because people are liking this and I want to spread correct information, samus gets infected during the intro sequence to fusion, and fusion comes much later than zero mission, since zero mission is a remake of metroid 1, so this is outright misinformation.
I think you miss read the comment, I think he is correcting the video at 7:00 where he says "the X parasite's infection caused her suit to be fused to her body." thelizard was just pointing out that the suit was always part of her, as metroid fusion says something like "the suit couldn't be removed while I was unconscious" not anything about the parasite keeping it on her@@foximus5231
Great job with the vid! Always a joy when one of yours comes out! Perhaps Dragon quest next? The game has a weird, and kinda of refrence-y timeline, Think it would be cool.
1. The original Ridley actually died in Super, right? Other M had a clone (?) who for some reason was just as pissed as the original and Fusion had just an X copy created from the corpse. 2. You never mentioned Adam's brain being copied into the Federation computer system, which is kind of an important plot point for Fusion and Dread.
One thing you forgot to mention is that samus is also part warrior chozo dna (from raven beak) so her dna is basically just a rainbow colored ball of yarn at this point
Those Long sequel games on the 3Ds or switch, Atelier? I always enjoy these summaries and it’s awesome to enjoy a franchise in this quick way. I feel I enjoy this explanations more when I’m familiar with most if not all the games in the series haha keep it up!
I've played about 3/4ths of the FEs but Ive never looked real into how they connect to eachother besides the obvious Fe7-6 ones. That could make a good video i'll keep that in mind
Yo, this is amazin! Could you do the Bravely default trilogy? You have a great way of explaining things and i think you'd translate the art style well!
I’m so glad that you did a summary of Metroid, I always wondered what the story was about…. You make it fun compared to other videos summary of the game in youtube so thanks so much. I would like to see final fantasy xiii, castlevania…. Or maybe bayonetta…
I actually never played Banjo-Kazooie (except for a little of Nuts & Bolts), but it would be cool to see the series in one of your videos. It doesn't have that many games or convoluted plotlines and i think it deserves some recognition.
As someone who tangentially knows the series through friends, content creators and long running jokes, this really cleared up everything in one simple video.
Usually when games cook for a long time, they don't end up being terrible, not saying I want to wait a decade for a game, or that every game that takes a long time is guaranteed to be good, but I think the fact Prime 4 is taking a while is a good sign for it.
For a bit of a wild card request, think you could cover the story of the Epic Mickey series? It’s one I’ve been in love with since day one and has a neat story if you ask me Oh and great video btw!
A few series suggestions that I hope you may cover some time soon: -Tales Of Series (Starting with Phantasia/Symphonia) -Star Ocean (It has connections to the Tales series for various reasons/Cover The Second Story first as it IS the best Star Ocean entry) -Valkyrie Profile -Hyperdimension Neptunia -Grandia 1 (Dreamcast/PS1 RPG) -Skies of Arcadia (Dreamcast/Gamecube RPG) -Golden Sun -Arc Rise Fantasia (A very underrated Wii RPG and a great one; just bear through the voice acting if you do this one) -Magical Vacation/Starsign (Another very underrated GBA/DS game) -Touhou (Whichever one you want to start with) -Rayman -Shantae -Xenogears (The game that started the whole Xeno series) -Baiten Kaitos (Also made by Monolith) -Ys (Similar to Zelda, but massively different) -Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel -Legend of Legaia (Underrated PS1 RPG) -Legend of Dragoon (One of the Best PS1 RPGs) -Danganronpa (This one will take you for a ride) -Nier Automata -Devil May Cry -Metal Gear Rising: Vengeance (Making the mother of all omelets here, Chase! Can't fret over ever egg!) -Bomberman -Mystical Ninja Goemon -Castlevania -Kingdom Hearts -The World Ends With You -The Denpa Men Sorry for the long list, but I hope you consider some of them!
The animation is so funny and so cute! I love Metroid and is a childhood favorite. My initials being ZDR same as the planet in Metroid Dread is icing on the cake for me. I can’t believe how little I of the lore I knew of this franchise. Dark Samus being a metroid makes so much sense! I was always confused about what dark samus was
The plot of Samus Returns is to exterminate them, only the baby she encounters at the end sees her as a mother. This plot point gets expanded in Super Metroid.
Not quite, she is for one metroid but the rest of the metroids were killed in Samus returns. All other metroids seen after this are clones with the exception of Samus herself and the baby.
I'd love for you to cover any of the Mario RPG games. A really out there pick might be the original Spyro games or something. Cool to keep seeing new videos from you though!
Oh I would love to see you cover the entire AceAttorney Series in one of these videos. It is such a great timeline to follow from start to [where the Klavier Gavin is Ace Attorney 7 Capcom? D:]

Bonus points: Every subsequent organic copy also dies for real. Meta Ridley showed up 3 times (once as Omega Ridley) and got 1 more in as Proteus Ridley. Those cybernetics put in work
I think he can regenerate and shed off his robotic parts.
IIRC his regeneration is brought up in the manga, where the explosion Samus's parents caused fucked him up and he had to regenerate his biomass by eating the dead humans, including Samus's parents, which he taunts her about.

Man, have i been waiting for this video. I love your content, and finally seeing a video on what is basically my favourite game series ever is amazing. The style is great as always, and the fact that you always add little bits of humor instead of just explaining what goes down while also keeping them relatively short always makes your videos uniquely enjoyable. This is great, have a good day Chase
You can easily find an English translation of the Metroid manga on the Metroid database
was about to say, i literally have it lol
It's really nice seeing your art style evolve from the FF9 Video and Mother series exploration (some of my favorites videos btw) and it's really cool seeing you post, as you're one of my favorite CZcamsrs. If you could, it'd be nice if you could cover the The World Ends With You series. It's such a great series and with your humor and way you draw, I feel like it'd be a great pick.
Thanks so much!! I have a friend thats obsessed with TWEWY so I know how much of a beloved series it is. I'll def keep that in mind
@@ChaseKip As someone unfamiliar with the series, I'm just laughing about how one would pronounce "twewy".
@@setster007 I don't even try, I just say 'the why' 😂
@@Dadan-dan That's even better than twewy somehow
@@setster007 I have heard exactly 1 person IRL pronounce it "tweh wee." Everyone else I've ever talked to just says the full mouthful of a game title aloud because it's easier than trying to figure out how to pronounce the acronym. 😆
The suit did not fuse with her body, she was just unconscious while it was bound to her (she can summon the suit at will, and it binds to her body while active), that's why parts had to be removed. we know this because when she dies, the suit disappears entirely, and she has her zero suit in Dread.
She looked conscious in the images where she was given a vaccine and having her suit removed which I don't think what happened.
@@zachtwilightwindwaker596 what do you mean "she looked conscious??" she was on an operating table and it was literally stated in the game that she wasn't conscious.
@@DestroyerApollyon I was talking about the video shown here.
@@zachtwilightwindwaker596 that's clearly meant to be artistic and is not relevant to any of my points, as I'm talking about the game in relation to the misinformation provided in the video.
@@zachtwilightwindwaker596 In "the video shown here," they *_also_* depicted her with two hands at 4:05 and 7:57 (even though the suit does NOT have a right glove- just a cannon,) and showed her gun on the wrong arm at 2:01, 2:03, 2:07, 2:30, 4:10, 4:39, 7:08, and 7:49 (again, the RIGHT arm of the suit is a cannon. Yes, I'm aware half of those timestamps are reuses of the same image).
*I think it's safe to say they took artistic liberties instead of going for accuracy.* I'm not complaining about it though- I feel nitpicky even recording the timestamps. 😣
So glad you're back Chase, your content is very funny and hits all the nostolgia buttons. Keep up the good work brotha!
Thanks!
Good video, although I feel like you should've included the fact that Raven Beak gave some of his DNA to Samus which means that Samus has DNA from two different races of Chozo
Samus' DNA is what happens when you don't know how to build a character in an evolution game so you just set everything to max and watch your abomination of a species take over the ecosystem
One thing is that Samus's suit wasnt fused by the X. It is part of her body all the time, it therefore cant be normally removed while shes unconscious.
The Federation Squad apologized to Samus during the afterevents of Metroid Prime,Federation Force.
“Sorry for almost unleashing an unstoppable bio weapon that we can’t control again, etto… bleh “^3^ “
I can’t believe that Metroid actually does the “you are the (series title)” joke but for real.
Honestly this video made me realize why Metroid fans love the series so much it seems awesome. I might download Dread on my switch now
Good luck
You won't regret it :)
It is a great game. Very fluid and responsive. Also just downright badass.
As someone who had dread as their first metroidvania I can 100% recommend
Forgot the plot point that mother brain gave Samus her power suit...
I don’t remember the X being able to transform their host into any monster. More like making a more monstrous version of whatever they take over.
Metroid fusion shows them creating hybrids, as shown by the fish/space pirate fusions that appear in the aquatic sector of the B.S.L. station. Furthermore, free floating X can transform into other enemy variants over time if left unattended.
The Sylux hype is to prepare for Metroid Prime 4, which revealed that he'll be the big bad of that game. He's been lurking Samus after Prime Hunters as one of the endings of Prime 3 shows Sylux's ship (and recently in Federation Force, looking at the Metroid).
Also, you forgot to mention that Raven Beak is also Samus' surrogate father by donating his DNA to infuse, and also he massacred the Thoha Chozos in SR388 prior to the events of Metroid 1, which he indirectly responsible for all of this Metroid and X Parasites mess in the first place, which gave attention to the Federation and the Space Pirates.
Nice video. I'd like to see a Xenoblade X lore or the entirety of Fire Emblem (if you can't, just Shadow Dragon aka FE1)
Instant Sub and Notif! Loved the art and pacing of this, especially doing a quick recap at the end to tie it up!
I love listening to you go off about these games ^w^.
Next topic you should do is final fantasy tactics. That story has a lot of interesting back and forth between the cast church and groups.
The backstory alone is bery interesting to see how things ended up that way.
HOLY SMOKES PLEASE LET THIS HAPPEN
Hell yeah bruther
As "The big guy from Smash bros" I can confirm this is all factually accurate.
Hiy, big guy from Metroid dread
I only ever saw Metroid games at a friend's house way back when. I kept thinking, "Did they NOT not destroy Ripley, then?" I thought I was missing big chunks of the story in between our hangouts, but no, the stories really are just like that. Another great video, another great art evolution. You're always improving, man.
Here's some games I would love to see you do a video on (and see how you handle the art styles!):
- Zero Escape series
- Phoenix Wright/Ace Attorney
- Rune Factory
- The World Ends with You
- Danganronpa (good luck trying to piece together the story, the spinoffs just confused me)
I will say I kinda *don't* want you to do Kingdom Hearts because it's been done a million times. That's just me, though!
What a beautiful drawings
I love seeing samus a little adorable
And I was a little confused seeing the Metroid returns game case before talking about Metroid fusion for the explanation
I think i didn't play returns too much...
Ridley is basically William afton “he always comeback” lol
And they're both purple!!!
He's dead after other m
Honestly I would love to see you do an "Explained" video for the games in the 'Marth' Fire Emblem timeline. Like Shadow Dragon, Echoes, and Awakening.
A timeline of the Sonic series, or just the classic games, would also be fun to watch.
Castlevania could be useful, since I don't think many people will have played that series fully.
And finally, I would LOVE to see your take on the Persona or Kingdom Hearts series. You're really good at explaining things, and I think you could do those franchises justice
Thanks for the recommendations!
Metroid Prime didn't really take Samus' Phazon suit, it ripped the Phazon corruption out of her suit as a means to survive, in doing so, it took her suit's blue prints along with parts of Samus' DNA to birth Dark Samus, who is surprisingly resistant and regenerative.
I have now realised this entire channel is just for Kip to flex his art progress. You are insanely inspiring for me to get better myself
Thank you!! I like to think my channel doubles as a realistic timeline of how long it takes to get better at art. So many art 'tutorials' are about getting good at art in weeks for month when for me, and probably most people, it takes years of gradually and slowly getting better. Wishing you luck on your art journey as well!
Villains dying and coming back to life seems to be a common trend in Nintendo games…
It may be lazy storytelling but hey if Ridley shows up in the next Metroid game i'll pog just the same
When you led off with three factions to be aware of, for some reason, my immediate thought was, those that think only the 2D games are canon, those that think all the games are canon, and those that think that Prime isn't canon but Other M is.
4:35 excellent video and great drawings! They truly capture the character of the Metroid designs in a lovely way, as a long time Metroid fan I'm happy to see the series reach this wonderful channel of yours. Although I'm afraid your depiction of the Metroid's evolution here doesn't seem to be too accurate as the final stage here looks more like Arachnus [which isn't of the Metroid species] than any of the later stages of the Metroid evolution. The only two bipedal Metroids are Zetas and Omegas and neither resemble this little fella.
How many of you clicked on the video because of the title card?
Me
Federation force is the 5th prime game, you forgot the deep lore of the 4th prime game: Metroid prime pinball
Metroid Prime Pinball is actually the Zero Mission to Prime 1.
I really like your art style! I feel a Metal Gear timeline video would be fun.
This is very well done. I'm a major fan of the Metroid series and have played every game... starting with the first on the NES... when it came out (yes, I'm an old man). I have to say this is the best Cliff's Notes version of the story of the entire series I have ever seen. If I ever hear of anyone who wants to get into Metroid, but wants to start with a later title like Dread... I'll try to keep this video in mind so they have an idea of the background story.

You completely skiped over the difference between mawkins and the other chozos.
Some games/series I think would be interesting for you to cover:
- Chrono Trigger (you decide if you wanna go full Cross or not)
- Star Fox (another Nintendo series, just say you dunno where it'll go next)
- Solatorobo: Red the Hunter (a very underrated and rare DS game, it's best to play it via an emulator, has a LOT of interesting story stuff to talk about that you will definitely not be expecting, the RPG Monger did a video on it last year)
- Asura's Wrath (another CC2 game, may be fun)
- The World Ends With You (very much up your alley)
- Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective (see if ya like it)
Funny how you released this video just as I started playing my first Metroid game, Metroid Prime Remastered. Good work.
Its a great game. A bit frustrating for me since I kept getting lost trying to find out where to go next but fun nonetheless
I just finished Metroid Prime Remastered three hours ago, so yeah pretty great timing Chase. (Although it's not my first game).
So glad your back doing more of these they are looking better then ever. I would love to see a Luigi’s mansion one haha
That was a lot of fun! Thanks for making the time and effort to entertain fans of this wonderful series.
Thanks! Glad you like it
the infection did not cause her suit to fuse with her body. It is mystically linked to her, and thus has no natural openings like a normal suit of armour since she can summon and relinquish it at will as seen in zero mission.
This is also why she can just sorta touch random objects to upgrade her suit.
Just because people are liking this and I want to spread correct information, samus gets infected during the intro sequence to fusion, and fusion comes much later than zero mission, since zero mission is a remake of metroid 1, so this is outright misinformation.
I think you miss read the comment, I think he is correcting the video at 7:00 where he says "the X parasite's infection caused her suit to be fused to her body." thelizard was just pointing out that the suit was always part of her, as metroid fusion says something like "the suit couldn't be removed while I was unconscious" not anything about the parasite keeping it on her@@foximus5231
I love the way they drew Samus, She is SO CUTE!
Great job with the vid! Always a joy when one of yours comes out! Perhaps Dragon quest next? The game has a weird, and kinda
of refrence-y timeline, Think it would be cool.
I just LOVE all the expressions for Samus...even with her helmet on!
I need all this samus art in this video
1. The original Ridley actually died in Super, right? Other M had a clone (?) who for some reason was just as pissed as the original and Fusion had just an X copy created from the corpse.
2. You never mentioned Adam's brain being copied into the Federation computer system, which is kind of an important plot point for Fusion and Dread.
About point 1:
Ridley's pure evil
He needs little reason to hate
Nice!!! Can you do the Megaman series next?
Animations look really slick, you’ve leveled up
Alternative title: "Metroid: A Tale of Repetitive Physical Amnesia"
One thing you forgot to mention is that samus is also part warrior chozo dna (from raven beak) so her dna is basically just a rainbow colored ball of yarn at this point
Great vid! I'm curious if you want to explore Pokemon's side games, like mystery dungeon or the gamecube games.
Those Long sequel games on the 3Ds or switch, Atelier?
I always enjoy these summaries and it’s awesome to enjoy a franchise in this quick way. I feel I enjoy this explanations more when I’m familiar with most if not all the games in the series haha keep it up!
TFW Prime 4 was what pushed me over the edge to buy a switch and I still dont have it.
At least Dread was a banger.
I'm sorry for your loss... hopefully Prime 4 will come out in the Switch era
I am eagerly awaiting that full connected timeline of Fire Emblem as connected by Awakening and going through Engage.
I've played about 3/4ths of the FEs but Ive never looked real into how they connect to eachother besides the obvious Fe7-6 ones. That could make a good video i'll keep that in mind
Yo, this is amazin! Could you do the Bravely default trilogy? You have a great way of explaining things and i think you'd translate the art style well!
I'd like to see a recap of the Mega Man series in your style at some point.
You can actually very easily find an english version of the metroid manga online. its not half bad
I’m so glad that you did a summary of Metroid, I always wondered what the story was about…. You make it fun compared to other videos summary of the game in youtube so thanks so much. I would like to see final fantasy xiii, castlevania…. Or maybe bayonetta…
Thank you. This was very well put together and informative
Incredible video as always, I hope you can explain the story of Golden sun one day, the style of the characters fit very well.
Cheese keep strikes again with another series explained
I actually never played Banjo-Kazooie (except for a little of Nuts & Bolts), but it would be cool to see the series in one of your videos. It doesn't have that many games or convoluted plotlines and i think it deserves some recognition.
As someone who tangentially knows the series through friends, content creators and long running jokes, this really cleared up everything in one simple video.
0:02 seconds in and this vid is already great
I always love these videos, they turn out great every time
Thank you so much!
Usually when games cook for a long time, they don't end up being terrible, not saying I want to wait a decade for a game, or that every game that takes a long time is guaranteed to be good, but I think the fact Prime 4 is taking a while is a good sign for it.
For a bit of a wild card request, think you could cover the story of the Epic Mickey series? It’s one I’ve been in love with since day one and has a neat story if you ask me
Oh and great video btw!
Halo story please
Skyrim has pretty vast lore! I bet lots of gamers my age have played at least one game of it
Cover the Paper Mario Series, its an emotional roller coaster! Also love your vids btw❤
Loved the video! I watch all of them. Love the Metroid series, I gotta finish Samus Returns, it's been sooo long since I paused it..
It’s always a great day when we get a video from Chase Kip.
the art is going HARD now
would love to see a series on the chrono series. love your vids!
Thanks! I for sure want to cover the series ill keep that in mind
A few series suggestions that I hope you may cover some time soon:
-Tales Of Series (Starting with Phantasia/Symphonia)
-Star Ocean (It has connections to the Tales series for various reasons/Cover The Second Story first as it IS the best Star Ocean entry)
-Valkyrie Profile
-Hyperdimension Neptunia
-Grandia 1 (Dreamcast/PS1 RPG)
-Skies of Arcadia (Dreamcast/Gamecube RPG)
-Golden Sun
-Arc Rise Fantasia (A very underrated Wii RPG and a great one; just bear through the voice acting if you do this one)
-Magical Vacation/Starsign (Another very underrated GBA/DS game)
-Touhou (Whichever one you want to start with)
-Rayman
-Shantae
-Xenogears (The game that started the whole Xeno series)
-Baiten Kaitos (Also made by Monolith)
-Ys (Similar to Zelda, but massively different)
-Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel
-Legend of Legaia (Underrated PS1 RPG)
-Legend of Dragoon (One of the Best PS1 RPGs)
-Danganronpa (This one will take you for a ride)
-Nier Automata
-Devil May Cry
-Metal Gear Rising: Vengeance (Making the mother of all omelets here, Chase! Can't fret over ever egg!)
-Bomberman
-Mystical Ninja Goemon
-Castlevania
-Kingdom Hearts
-The World Ends With You
-The Denpa Men
Sorry for the long list, but I hope you consider some of them!
When is Xenoblade 2 video gonna release? :(
Im planing on working on that right now!
Can you do Kingdom Hearts pretty please?
The animation is so funny and so cute!
I love Metroid and is a childhood favorite. My initials being ZDR same as the planet in Metroid Dread is icing on the cake for me.
I can’t believe how little I of the lore I knew of this franchise. Dark Samus being a metroid makes so much sense! I was always confused about what dark samus was
I would love to see you cover the Chibi-Robo series next!
Isn't Samus Aran Space Mommy to the Metroids? I only played Samus Returns and Dread I'm still new to the series.
The plot of Samus Returns is to exterminate them, only the baby she encounters at the end sees her as a mother.
This plot point gets expanded in Super Metroid.
Not quite, she is for one metroid but the rest of the metroids were killed in Samus returns. All other metroids seen after this are clones with the exception of Samus herself and the baby.
He lives!!
I'd love for you to cover any of the Mario RPG games. A really out there pick might be the original Spyro games or something. Cool to keep seeing new videos from you though!
Would love to see you do Metal Gear next. I feel it could make for a fun video and it's a series with not a overwhelming amounts of games.
Can you do Fnaf next
Oh I would love to see you cover the entire AceAttorney Series in one of these videos. It is such a great timeline to follow from start to [where the Klavier Gavin is Ace Attorney 7 Capcom? D:]
I’m glad to see you back, you all ways giving the best story summary and I love it! keep it up!
Samus, the only "hero" who has blown up more planets than Freeza.
The only Metroid game I’ve playing is Dread so this explained a LOT.
Also a video on The Legend of Dragoon would be a pretty fun one to watch!
This video was actually amazing. I love you
AAAAAAAAAAAA I can't watch the video right now, why do you choose now to upload it!? 😭 Thanks for bringing back one of my favourite video game sagas 💚
ur videos never miss, u should consider doing guilty gear or metal gear lore, they're both ridiculously complicated
your videos are amazing dude. you should do the mario games i think itd be amazing
