Protip-after-the-fact: when you fought that boss, please go for the glowing weak spot.

FeyerbrandX posted:Not... not hold charge? How could you be alive so long and not know your ABCs? Always Be Charging. I mean yeah it might be bothersome to some to hear the charge sound going constantly, but its so good to be prepared. Does this game have the thing where enemies take some damage if you spinjump into them while holding a charge? E: Yup, you figured it out in the video. It's called the pseudo-screw attack. Also CirclMastr, it's good to realize that, as far as I know, this game never ever expects you to wall jump. It can be used to get some upgrades earlier than normal but you don't need it otherwise.

This LP is a great study on how incorrect expectations can make life much harder. - Assuming the wall jump is actually required for anything in this game: makes you scared to explore holes and makes you not look for other escape routes when in a hole. - Assuming you get the Ice Beam early (instead, every metroid game shuffles the item order around): stumbling over a bunch of puzzles because you assumed they require the Ice Beam even though they were specifically designed without the Ice Beam in mind.

At around 20:00 in that latest video you crouched while speedboosting, and commented on how Samus kept glowing. Congratulations, that was your first shinespark! Now try experimenting while in that state, you can do some cool things with that.

No, thank you. One thing I wanted to bring up but didn't yet because you asked for no spoilers is that... well, you figured out soon enough that bombs reveal which blocks are destructible and what weapon you need to get rid of them, right? Before you had the X-ray thing, Power Bombs of course did the same thing, but for the entire range of the bomb at once. That's possibly the most useful thing power bombs can do: reveal all secrets everywhere, and blow them up too. I don't think you ever found that use. Oh well, the X-ray scope kinda replaced that function anyway.
