He's not really into Metroid so I can see why he felt the way he did but to just chalk it up to "bad game design" and rage quit it is just in really poor taste. The game even tells you what to do in situations like his.
But I can also see the angle where maybe in QA they could have done a better job relaying concerns to the dev team for scenarios where the player doesn't play as the devs intended. I recall Jaffe saying he would playtest a game and intentionally go out of his way to see "what if the player doesn't want to do this here or maybe it didn't occur to them to do this here" and I think there's definitely some merit to that style of game design.
He had a cool chat with Gene Park yesterday about the game...again and he might go back to it but I doubt he will. I guess it's just not his style of metroidvania. |
And roguelike games, didnt he rage quit to returnal too? |
Yeah, he does that a lot with roguelikes. Probably did it with Returnal. I know he just stops playing games when he's done with them regardless if he finishes and I can understand that. There's so many games to play. Why spend time on games you don't want to anymore? Dude's 50, has kids, works on other unnamed projects, streams, etc. so yeah I'd probably not spend a lot of time on things I don't genuinely enjoy either.
