I'm calling it right now.

Every single person on that team of marines is going to die, and Samus is going to be traumatized about it and swear to work solo from now on.

You are too late with this prediction. Metroid: The Other M takes place after Super Metroid. Therefore Samus has been working alone since Metroid, the Prime games; Metroid Prime Echoes, Corruption and Hunters, which take place between Metroid and Metroid II: The Return of Samus, and Metroid II: The Return of Samus. Oh and I forgot about Super Metroid. Therefore She's been working alone for seven games up to this point.

The only game that follows Metroid: The Other M is Metroid Fusion.

But Samus didn't work alone in Corruption. She had the assistance of several other hunters, two Aurora units, and an entire Federation fleet.

Of course, every one of those hunters died, and Samus seemed pretty traumatized about it...

Yes, that is true. I will give you that one. Now she's only worked solo in 6 games.

I'm talking about the plot behind this game. Why is that so hard to understand?

I like your clone theory, Smoked. I'm also expecting some sort of clone shenanigans.

It's hard to understand because she's worked alone before this game. It stands to reason that someone who already has worked alone can not decide that because of deaths that she's going to continue to work alone. That's always been her MO, Method of Operation, already.

But I can say that we are in agreement on the clonning aspect of the game. I suspect that Samus is going to find out that the girl revealed in the E3 Trailer is going to be her sister or some genetic alteration of Samus but not an exact clone. But Samus herself might be a clone.

Which is exactly why every one of those marines has to die, and Samus has to be traumatized about it. Just like Corruption, they're going to break her MO only to turn around and reinforce it in the end. It's so transparent.
