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

These are valid points on the franchise's story, but it hinges on Miles what's-his-face being a pest hanging around for a tutorial's length while we already know there are five of these dudes, and God only knows how long they'll actually be there annoying and hindering you.

I don't think anyone is afraid or complaining about some dude talking, most people liked Fusion and Corruption, and they had that, but looking at Other M shows that there are absolutely very poor, immersion-breaking ways this stuff can be implemented, and given how few and far between Metroid games are, I think the PTSD is valid.

The main problem with OM isn't the NPCs, but Samus herself, what a mockery of her character, specially for a game that was supposed to happen after Super.

But anyway, if you watched the trailer and saw 5 Miles, you and I must have watched different trailers.
