Welcome to GamingSins, where I nitpick the hell out of video games.
Metroid recently celebrated its 30th anniversary. And what better way to celebrate the Metroid franchise than to sin the game that practically killed it. And unsurprisingly, it's pretty sinful.

She is badassery defined.

lol That is true, isn't it? In the cutscenes and flashbacks when she was in the Federation they made her look like a pipsqueak, like they were forcing us to sympathize with Samus Aran, the stoic badass that definitely should not have any of that melodrama. Seriously, they should have called this "Metroid Shoehorned", with the plot, the characters, Adam Malcovich's authority, and Samus' John-Woo-with-a-vagina impression. It played nothing like a Metroid game, had 0 exploration, 0 nostalgia (save for the references I'm expected to jizz my pants over), 0 common sense, and 0 replay value. This is what happens when you make a game that is supposed to be about lone-wolf exploration and turn it into an action-drama that retcons literally everything that we know about Metroid.

People forget that in flashbacks, Samus is a teenager and not fully grown yet compared to Other M where she's in her mid-late 20s. Several years make a big difference. Plus, in the later scenes, she's kinda hunched over and not standing a full height, suit or no suit. She's usually bending her legs, leaning forward. Usually a tactic for those that face combat in order to move more quickly. In that later scene, she's still recovering from Adam shooting at her, and isn't standing tall because she's regaining her bearings. Stop making false assumptions. Also, You think she's flat footed in the Power/Varia Suit? No foot support whatsoever?? Wow, even more false assumptions.

@pollo20x6

But I think that's the problem. Samus isn't "human". She was raised by an ex-warrior race who taught her their old warrior ways. Even among humans, you can take a grown man, send him to the military to essentially become a modern warrior (soldier) and break him down to the point that he loses his humanity and comes back with PTSD after the stuff they commit due to being able to act based on their training. The Chozo didn't need to break Samus. She was just a child. All they really had to do was mold her into a warrior. And even then, I don't think they raised her to be a monster. She was raised by the now peaceful Chozo. But she was still raised to be a warrior. That's why so many people were upset when she freaked out when she encounters Ridley in this game. Up to this point, we all kinda assumed she was hard enough to be able to face this childhood trauma and not flinch due to context clues and lore. Samus may be human, but she was raised as a child by something that wasn't. Kinda like those stories of children raised by wolves and then they're all animalistic, Samus was raised by a warrior race to be a warrior. She is still going to have emotions, but if humans can train other humans to suppress those emotions, imagine what an alien race could accomplish with a child.

There is a valid logic for someone operating in a Galactic Federation facility having to follow orders from GF military officers, it's GF property and if the GF marines are looking for survivors it would make sense to place some sensible limitations on the independent operative such that the risk of said operative killing survivors by accident through liberal use of their most powerful weapons. HOWEVER, as everyone is aware the limitations placed upon Samus are far from sensible and both Adam's refusal to allow her to use basic equipment when she needs it (e.g. Hell Run) and Samus' refusal to activate plainly necessary gear is are ridiculous beyond measure and show the "father/daughter" relationship between them to be decidedly one-sided and extremely unhealthy; while she idolises him (because reasons) he seems to treat her mostly with contempt and disregard.

+AzureRoxe well i get why she broke down at the ridley part after super metroid the planet is blown up for good it also this game also forshadows the federation experimentation on biolife metroids and a clone ofmother brain in a human like form so it explains why at the end of fusion she had enough of the feds and stops being their puppet. i agree though the story shouldve been more western based metroid and zelda always where more western based sure windwaker and the new zelda look more pleasing for japanese people now but anyway they shouldve changed scenes slightly for the japanese players and for the western players and made a better script the story of other m is not too bad but the anime style of telling is is ridiculous and the authorization crap shouldve been disregarded completly they shouldve used some other explination like having something simular like metroid prime 1 where a blast or a monster or whatever destroys the suit or something. anyway they shouldve had a co writer that corrected some of the ridiculous things sakamoto or whatever that guy is called made up and make them more logical pretty strange how this guy also made fusion etc but ruined this completely the gameplay is pretty cool the stand still with missles shouldve been reworked to be able to move. its not bad to have a story prime 3 and fusion did it right sort of only the adam stuff is meh why does she never mention the old bird etc they probaly where beter adopters father mother figures etc then a dumb order following space marine sakamoto probaly wanted to make a dumb senpai story or something lmao..

It also contradicts itself. Other M makes it clear Samus uses "concentration" to keep her suit online, and when she's under mental stress and cannot focus on maintaining it, it's easily dispatched (as in her fight against Ridley and her getting shot in the back by Adam). Problem is, both in Fusion and Other M, Samus was unconscious when the GF scientists were wiping out dead tissues on her armor that they used for cloning the creatures in the BOTTLE Ship and her surgery to remove the Power Suit when she got infected by the X-Parasites. Other M cannot happen by its very own canon!

@Chelline R. Lol learn what a Mary Sue is. She got her powers through legit reasons, she overcomes the odds because the player does through effort. She's a bad-ass, efficient bounty hunter who left the calagtic federation army for dissagreeing on how she was being used. Not a whiny damsel in distress getting ptsd from meeting her parents killer for the 4th, possibly 5th, including metroid 2's remake 6th time she meets him, to which she lost the ptsd AFTER the first time she meets him again as a young adult (metroid manga). She's not an idiot who lets herself be treated in the same way that led her to refuse orders by leaving the army in the first place. Adam would never earn Samus' respect by the way he behaves in the game. It was simply a dumb way to prevent Samus from using her full arsenal for gameplay mechanics. The devs thought that orders from Adam were a good reason because "the lore established that Samus respects Adam", not that Adam EARNED Samus' respect. It's bad writing and lazy game developing.

@Chelline R. She was never a Mary Sue. She was a great Bounty hunter with nearly perfect judgement when it came to dangerous situations. This does not mean she was perfect, ever. She did have PTSD, but if you read the manga, she clearly deals with it in the form of anger, not fear. At this point in the timeline she has no reason to cry at the sight of Ridley. Besides, you may think she I a Mary Sue because she never had an overdone emotional struggle, but that's because we have only ever really seen her doing her job, which she is amazing at as we all know. But what about socializing? It's pretty obvious that Samus has a very limited grasp on the concept of friendship, and would probably react poorly in any social situation. What about arts, music, any other skill. A Mary Sue is a character who is perfect at everything he/she does. The only thing we know Samus is good at is being a bounty hunter. What about during her downtime? She could very well be struggling and we just never get to see it. We don't know what else she is and isn't good at for the most part, but we all know that she is inexperienced at being a PERSON. That is probably one of the main reasons she really left the federation. She couldn't stand being around people, because she can't understand them or relate to them.

I would say Team Ninja is innocent in all this. They offered suggestions like using both Wiimote and nunchuck combined instead of just the Wiimote but Yoshio Sakamoto shot those down. The only things that could be blamed on them is how the game looks which is surprisingly good for a Wii game. Team Ninja never made a Metroid game and relied completely on Sakamoto to fill in the blanks. Yes, the very same Sakamoto that was there since the beginning. _Other M_ was apparently his vision the entire time. People can say what they want about _Fusion_ but I can only imagine how bad that game would have been if the team from Nintendo was not there to hold back Sakamoto's _"creativity"._

Ok, I have to know: Am I the only one bothered by Samus' voice? She sounds so passive. Samus is a war vet who has been shot, stabbed, and tortured by numerous weapons and species. She made an entire species extinct and fought Mother Brain who in this game looks like something H.P. Lovecraft would write about. Why does she sound like a scared little girl instead of a confident, bad ass bounty hunter who commands respect? In fact, why does she ACT like a scared little girl instead of a confident, bad ass bounty hunter who commands respect? Fuck this game and everything it stands for! Next time they put this much "work" into the story, we better get a Samus who actually acts like Samus.

The quality of the writing in this game makes it always unclear whether Samus is stupid or just really socially awkward. Case in point, when she sees James being suspicious, she never says anything, or does anything about it. James says, "Hey Samus!" in a nervous fashion, and she says nothing. Technically, Adam should have seen this too. Is he also stupid? It's one thing to nitpick plotholes, it's another thing to have plot holes obscure the motivations of the characters and result in the characters being less realistic or relatable.

Actually, YamiYugi14, the Chozo made it so Samus could literally will her Power Suit anytime and anywhere. So that's Magick right there. Magick is real in the Metroid Universe and that's something alot of people just can't reconcile for some weird reason. However, YamiYugi14, I do fully agree with you how this game was absolutely sickening. I love Samus Aran being a BA highly powered bounty hunter doing her thing and her thing only, screw everyone else type of thing. I absolutely hate the fact that Samus Aran got turned into an exceptionally moody and horny teenage girl hellbent on becoming Adam's one true Pet. No thanks on that stupid BS. It would of greatly pleased me if Samus Aran was more sarcastic and did her own thing, but still came and saved and protected the soldiers whenever she could as she did her own thing. That'd be the Samus Aran that I grew up with since the first Metroid game, not this moody and horny determined-to-become-Adam's-fucktoy mess.

Someone with video editing skills should play through this game and edit the footage to: - Remove all of Samus's speech. - Cut conversations to be one sided without Samus talking. - Whenever a weapon is "authorised" or she is "given an order", just have them say 'Samus' and she uses the weapon for the job. Or just remove their speech entirely. - Change boss battle music. - Remove all mentions of 'Princess'. - Remove industrial """""flashback""""" - Remove melodrama flashbacks. - Remove her PTSD over Ridley. - Remove most of Adam's sacrifice scene. - Remove the woman scientists (And Samus's) unnecessary explanations. The plot is shaky and gameplay is alright, but the game would be wonderful without these things simply because the creator of this game doesn't know how to handle characters.

After finding out she has to deal with a squad she becomes irritated, and snyde. Half of the squad is intimidated, half is disrespectful because they don't realize she's THAT samus aran. After landing a power fluctuation at a security gate shreds a lot of capacitors for samus's suit, making her limited to her basic kit until she can get enough capacitors by exploring and story progression to unlock her weapons again.

I was talking about the actions she does in the entire series. Initially going down to Tallon IV for the sole reason of hunting down Ridley in Prime 1, Her body language in the Prime series, sparing the last Metroid in Metroid II, her persuading Adam to betray the Federation and destroying the BSL in Fusion. These are just a few examples of Samus being much more than a "badass because reasons", but an actual character that does indeed fit to someone who would do badass things.

I don't get it. i've scrolled down over the comment section and most of the posts relate either to how poorly Samus' character has been portrayed by it's detractors, or how cognitively deficient the fanbase is to not understand said portrayal by it's supporters. But i see almost no putting a comment on the gameplay. Ironically, the close-quarter-combat technique of Samus both make sense and are not bad ; it offers great mobility and getting on top of those big creatures to blast them out first hand is oddly satisfying. The problem is that it has been done at the expense of range combat : shooting missiles or using the grapple beam requires her to be stationnary, which completely clash with the fast paced aspect of her close-combat abilities. Additionnaly, they are multiple instances where the core of the "Metroid" series Gameplay, which is the collecting part and improving the suit's abilities, doesn't have any cohesivness or rationnal and, sometimes, flat out contradictory with the rest of the game. For example, Samus do not have the right to use her power bomb until the end of the game. Though, in it's practical standpoint, Adam *did* raised the point about the dangerosity of said bombs during the first briefing of the game, he did not make mention of any reason why she shouldn't use them ; he made no allusion to potential civilians that could still be on the station, or when his men are near her location, which could justify the complete prevention of usage. Nothing at all. Furthermore, every time Samus "got access" to another part of her gear, a very small menu transition happened in which was diplayed the name of said gear and "how to use it". But there was no such thing in regard of the Power Bomb - you just had to guess it in a situation where the game litteraly was sucking the life outta you. Which *IS* a failure of game design. Another example is the infamous fight with the sentry drones which, upon desruction of the last one, drop the one and only truly obtainable gear in the classic Metroid sense of the term, in the whole game, as it immediatly stuck upon and improve Samus's beam power upon collection... without any dialogue from either Samus or Adam saying anythign about it. Nothing. At. All. Litteraly, Samus collected a beam uppgrade and immediatly made use of it, without Adam saying anything or herself waiting his permission whatsoever - which completely undermine the whole arsenal/censorship relation between Adam and Samus, which is (supposedly) at the core of the story.) And of course, the most infamous example being how Adam's restrictions over Samus's suit capabilities extend to even non-lethal armement, like the Varia and Gravity suit or the Grapple Beam. Without any explanation whatsoever... Imagine a general of reknown gaining exclusive command of a soldier the equivalent of Rambo on the battlefield. The general sent his soldier on the front line with barely a shirt on him, his kevlar vest hanging in his bag and, only once he took one too many bullets, the general authorize the vet to wear his kevlar suit. Can you picture any army of any country, in the whole world, doing that to it's soldiers, excepted out of pure spite ?

I've never played a Metroid game. I only know Samus trough Super Smash Bros. And this does NOT make it like a series worthy playing. Also, what the BLOODY HELL is that authorization thing? It's as bad as having Navi telling Link he can use his bombs for five minutes or that his bow and arrows are authorized to shoot an eye on the wall.

Well, it's an utterly irritating one. Why give the player all their utilities and weapons from the beginning but restrain their use until some 'former' commander feels like allowing us to use them? Besides, from what I heard, Metroid is about exploring and finding the power-ups yourself, so doesn't that mechanic defeat that gameplay mechanic that is the reason the game is good in the first place?

And just because Samus is "somewhat" better in this shit, doesn't make it a true Metroid game, Samus is only a part to what the Metroid franchise is, this abomination spits on EVERYTHING that makes it Metroid, spinoff or not, even a spinoff connects to the main series and so MUST have the same tone.
