He would have given it 6 stars if it was an Xbone exclusive.

Is this timed exclusive?
I don't get the whole, "it felt like Metroid, and that made me uncomfortable." That is just a really weird criticism.
Out on PS4 now, with Vita and PC coming later.

What engine is this based on? unity?
My reaction to that is Reggie-style "Play. The. Game." It establishes it's own identity quite quickly and while it has clear Metroid references it's not simply a nostalgia-fest. You could play it without knowing of Metroid and you probably wouldn't realize you were missing references.

Looks like visual studio or something on PC, didn't see any obvious middleware. I wouldn't worry about the engine, it runs at a flawless 60 FPS. Some minor bugs but Tom was quick to fix most of them before embargo even ended.
Most games are very similar to another in its genre. It is the way games are created. They copy and steal ideas, or pay homage to other games that came before, yet I have never heard someone call it "uncomfortable". Tired or samey sure, but uncomfortable is a weird word to use.I could see it being offputting if the game is "too close" to another property.
March has been a hell of a month for games.
Speaking of Reggie; the game was being shown at a trade show and Reggie ended up seeing it, someone straight up told him that someone has to make a new Metroid since Nintendo won't.

Do we know the price?

In this case though it's been so long since we've had a game that was close to Metroid specifically I don't consider it a negative thing. And who even knows if the Metroid series is still active anymore.
I'm absolutely loving Bloodborne, but this game will tear me away from it. Can't wait to play this!!
