The main reason I don't want to hear Samus talk is because I don't want anything distracting me from her massive boobs. As long as she speaks only when wearing the chozo armor (whatever it's being called, these days.......), I won't mind. ^^^The guy above actually knows what an etecoon is! I support any statement he makes!! And for the record, even though she didn't actually speak with a voice in Metroid Fusion, Samus wasn't a silent protagonist. Sometimes, she wouldn't shut the hell up!! |
It is known as the Varia Suit (which is more well known than the starting suits before the release of Metroid Prime: Hunters).
To allow a cinematic game to flourish, narration and other forms of speech are vital. Samus is the narrator and using text will reduce focus on the cutscenes and gameplay, voice-overs allow the gamer (like me) to focus on both. The previous games were less cinematic, so text was used.
