Doesn't look like it. I provided a pretty lenghty overview of the franchise covering how Metroid has done nothing but change and challenge their conventions since the beginning. If after proving that you then go and say that Metroid is a franchise that "shouldn't change"... then you either didn't read the OP or you read it, but decided to ignore it. And honestly, I don't know which one is more disrespectful xD

Finding disrespect in someone's opinion about a video game is a problem unto itself. It leads me to believe your issue lies less with my opinion (and others like me) and more to do with things going on in your actual life.

But just for the sake of clarity, I don't agree that most of the changes you're referring to were very drastic. If they were, I wouldn't have played them because I hate change in franchises I enjoy, and I have enjoyed every Metroid I've played outside of Other M.

My suspicion is that you don't like people talking bad about MP4, and as a means of devaluing their concerns so you don't have to accept that something you like may be flawed, you've conjured up your own logic-stream and then posted it here, hoping that others will back it up and thus, validate it. I didn't do this, so your mind went all ad hominem as a way of devaluing me... because what is the worth of an opinion coming from a "disrespectful" jerk?

My advice is to just tune it out, buy MP4 and be happy. What others think doesn't matter.

No, I don't think your opinion is disrespectful. What I find disrespectful is getting into someone elses thread, not reading the OP, answering anyway and in the answer very clearly demonstrating that you completely ignored the OP by mentioning a point that the OP has already refuted and not adressing any of his arguments. By doing this, as I said before, you either didn't read the OP or you did and you ignored the arguments it brought up. And yes, I think both things are disrespectful.

Now that you have been called out you decide to "clarify". Whathever xD

You think that going from Super to Fusion is not a huge change in pretty much every way? Or from Prime to Prime 3 (which, btw, introduces many things that people think Prime 4 is pulling from its ass)? If you are not bothered by ANY of that, but you are because of a motorcycle and a nerdy NPC then honestly I don't know what to tell you. Feel however you like about Prime 4.

I don't care if people talks bad about MP4. But I must admit that this overall reaction to something that I consider to be very minor really confuses me.
