| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to DCP side quest episode number one hundred and thirteen the deep dive into us new Metroidvania game that just came out not true new |
| 0:11.9 | Metroidvania. Can you call Metroid a Metroidvania? Absolutely. I don't like it. |
| 0:21.7 | Just think there's people who are going to play this that are you know of a younger generation. |
| 0:26.5 | You're going to be like, yeah, I don't know. It seems like it's copying Hollow Knight and |
| 0:30.3 | Ori and all that. I saw that. I was actually on Twitter the other day and somebody said |
| 0:35.0 | this game is just copying Ori in the Blind Forest. I was like, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, no, that's just |
| 0:45.6 | that's a slapworthy, right? You know your annual slap? Yeah, I don't know. I mean, you really want to save |
| 0:50.8 | that thing. I feel like this is a good case. Yeah, I feel vengeance. Yeah. All right. Well, |
| 0:57.6 | you can use your annual slap, but I'm going to hold on to mine. I really want to like December 25th |
| 1:02.3 | is when I'm really looking to give that thing out like a Christmas day annual slap. How they |

| 1:27.7 | Dread it came out. It sure did. This game I think might be the best Metroid that's ever existed. |
| 1:35.4 | Like it is stupid. It's fun. Yeah, I'm loving it. It really is. There's a couple of things about |
| 1:44.2 | this game that I was a little bit worried about at the beginning. Like the whole Emmy kind of mechanic |
| 1:49.4 | that they showed. I was like, what is this going to be? Right? Is this going to be that I'm playing |
| 1:55.5 | Metroid, but I'm getting chased the entire time. So it just feels like almost like the mechanic in |
| 2:00.8 | a Resident Evil game where they have nemesis or who's that other guy? Mr. Big or something like that? |
| 2:11.5 | Where you just you just feel like the constant tension of getting chased by Emmy. |
| 2:17.6 | That's not really how it works. I don't want to go into spoilers at all because I really feel like |
| 2:22.1 | going into a game like this fresh and it's not that long a game either. But the Emmy ends up |
| 2:27.8 | being more like a puzzle element that you run into occasionally rather than just a constant |
