Before I played the game I had such a different theory about how the story would go:

The lamorn's head shape with their 6 extrusions sticking out really reminded me about the floating head of Metroid Prime outside its armor. I really thought we would have zipped back in time/space and ended up on Phazon in the past. Where in the end a Metroid (Moctroid?) corrupted Lamorn trapped in a meteorite would escape the planet to end up on Talon4. Basically telling Metroid Prime origin story.

But I'm happy how the story went for real, setting up something new.

I never even noticed this resemblance, good catch!

But yeah, agreed that I prefer that they did something new instead of trying to artificially extend the plot of Prime 1-3.
