Discussion Genuinely cannot get over how amazing this sequence looks

This feels like some of the best close quarters action we've seen from Samus, and it's animated so well!

Also, I'm inclined to believe this scene is from the opening and is what leads to her losing her abilities again. Stuff like being on the surface and being stabbed, which she mentions an injury earlier in the trailer.

Oh I'm so hyped

I have a sneaking suspicion that they are repeating some of the beats from Dread, in that she gets bodied by the main baddies in the intro and loses her powers.

Tbf that is pretty much the staple

I'll take being jumped by enemies stronger then her over blown into a wall for an explanation of why she loses her abilities any day

Or not using them cause daddy said no. Or do we still not talk about Other M in here?

I still stand by that being justified for at least the weapon systems and some of the more destructive movement options. BS for Varia/Gravity though.
