[Opinion]I think people are overreacting over the whole Metroid Prime 4 NPC situation

[curl-6]

The internet nowadays is just addicted to non-stop faux outrage and negativity cos that's what drives engagement, which means more ad revenue.

The game will probably be 20+ hours long and this goofball will probably be present for only a small slice of that.

Prime 3 already had Samus interacting with and fighting alongside Federation troopers back in 2007.

The "controversy" is most likely way overblown.
