What went so horribly wrong with Metroid Prime 4?
>>
>[GAME] is the [OTHER GAME] of [SERIES]
Not that I expect better of game journalism, but what a lazy take

Unironically an example of chudslop. The dweeb (I forgot his name) was obviously meant to be a self-insert for the chud phenotype kind of guys to imagine mating pressing her doggy style.

Nothing wrong with that template, you instantly understand what it's trying to convey without wasting 400 paragraphs to get there

First pic is isaac not knowing that Samus and Doomguy are a couple and Chief is their stupid kid who is taller than the two

Nintendo and Bamco came up with a shitty idea. They gave up on it and gave it to Retro, who were then told not to start over from scratch and use the existing concepts.
Retro proceeded to phone it in.
>>
I know the game was shit, but it wasn't that shitty.
>>
>>730696289
If it takes that long it means that they had to scrap it at least once and had to do it over again.

Funny thing about that woman phrase, he got it exactly right, just for all the wrong reasons because he's a shitlib.
>>
>>730696653

Nah, but it's still shit nonetheless.
>>
>>730698047
I mean yeah. They publicly stated that during a Nintendo Direct. Really would have loved to see how the original build of the game was compared to what we ended up getting
>>
>>730696653
MovieBlob wishes. Other Metroid games being mediocre, like MP4 and ForceFed, won't magically make Other M good.
>>
>>730698047
They obviously didn't scrap it enough times.
>>
>>730696289
No one involved WANTED to make the game, for starters.

Other M is a game where Samus already has the Varia Suit which gives her heat resistance and buffed defenses but she chooses not to enter the abandoned space facility with it active because ??? and chooses to not activate it throughout a large part of the game, even when she's getting mauled by an alien and taking chip damage in an extreme heat area, because Adam hasn't authorized it despite the Varia Suit posing no risk of disturbance to the mission at all. And that's such a minute nitpick in the grand scheme of interweaving problems present in Other M, including being present in the larger problem of Adam's verification rule being such a contrived and poor excuse to distribute upgrades. This is a game where you'll be forced to find a single pixel, and the devs expected you to do this on a 480p/480i display. This is a game where every time you wanna shoot a missile you gotta stand still, flip your Wii Remote vertically, and point it forward. This is a 3D Action Game spearheaded by combat designer of Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden Black but it's incredibly simple and mundane because of Sakamoto's and Nintendo's wishes. And don't get me started on the actual story, I don't even wanna talk about it. The game is a waste, it obviously had a high budget but it's put towards such a gigantic flop of a game. Metroid Prime 4 is a disappointment in many regards but I cannot in good faith say it's worse than Other M.
