Resident_Hazard said: Well, I've been playing and loving and worshipping Metroid since the olden days, and all I can tell you is that Metroid: Other M is definitly not giving you what the series was known for. For one thing, never, ever assume that Metroid was a fast-paced game or series. Other M's Ninja Gaiden-esque fast gameplay is far from the series norm. Slower pace, moody atmospheric music, and an emphasis on exploration over flash-in-the-pan action is what the series is known for. |
I won't pretend to know what metroid is known for by the fans as I have only played metroid (though I was like 4 years old. Super Metroid and Prime, but beaten none of them.
But I mean it's definitely a possibility that someone could like this game more. And if like you say this isn't the norm for metroid. Then they could still like it because they don't like what the other metroids were known for.
