This interview pretty much aligns with what some of us felt. Prime 4 feels like a high school group project. A good project overall, even great at times... But you can clearly see that it was done by multiple people with different degrees of polish, style and quality in their writting that never tried to make an homogeneous text.
I just hope Prime 5 is a thing and Retro can do something completely fresh without having to salvage whathever Bamco and Tanabe tried to do. In fact, I wish Tanabe stepped aside as Metroid Prime producer. He has too much control and influence, abd his ideas are pretty much hit or miss.
