| Asriel said: There's no need to add a hypothetical dimension to this. Metroid Prime has been one of my favourite games of all time since I first played it. Occassionally a I set aside a weekend to replay it and 100% it, it's sublime. I loved the sequels. I am seriously disappointed that there's no core Metroid title on the horizon. But on no planet is an expression of my disappointment that equates to "cancel this game because it's not what I wanted" justifiable. Like I said, if people don't like it, and don't want Nintendo to try Metroid spin-offs in this manner, then there is the clear option of not buying. I'm adopting a wait and see approach to Federation Force. If fans want to express their disillusionment, they could attempt something far more positive than "This game is an atrocity, cancel it". Seriously, atrocity? That's the language being used? Do they know what happens in the outside world? Set up a kickstarter, letting Nintendo know it's there to guage interest in Prime IV. Start a social media campaign calling for development on Prime IV to start, instead of demanding Next Level's game be scrapped. I'm as disappointed as any Metroid fan, but I'm not going to behave like a spoilt brat and lose all sense of proportion. |
Your logic is a refreshing thing to see after all the disillusionment and childish reactions.
Like you said, it is one thing to be disappointed by this game, but the reactions are petty. The energy being used against this game could be put to much better use.
I still think it is silly to write this game off after the first reveal. Nintendo is bound to elaborate on this title further, and those who are detesting the game now might actually like what there is to be shown. I have already heard people react positively to the Treehouse showing of this particular Metroid title.
A wait and see approach is definitely the most logical.
