Yeah.

Yeah.

It's actually even worse than you remember.

it got worse over time

THE BABY

This

With more exploration it could have been ok

Yes stop pretending otherwise

Yes

It gets worse every time I look back on it.

You know it was bad. Why make these threads?

Yes it was.
>Linear, no exploration, doors lock you from backtracking
>Power ups are easy to find and make a loud noise to make sure you don't miss them
>auto aim
>regenerating missiles
>infinite dodges
>awkward "flip remote around and stand perfectly still to first person shoot missiles" mode
>boring, slow, over the shoulder "investigation mode" segments
>pixel hunts where you have to look at the exact pixel it wants you to in order to progress
This is without saying anything about the story

Yes, it was and it's even worse now.

Yea, I played it again recently. It's worse than i remember.

It was the most disappointing thing since my son. I mean how much more could you possibly fuck up the backstory to Metroid? And while my son eventually hanged himself in the bathroom of a gas station, the unfortunate reality of Other M is that it'll be around.

Forever.

It will never go away.

It can never be undone.

>this is the only Metroid game to get any marketing worth a damn
>because of that this was most people's first Metroid game and exposure to the franchise itself

lmao yes

It's pretty fucking bad.

How when it didn't sell?

But is it worse than bagpipes?

yes, absolutly

or this

yes. the gameplay was a trocious and the story is a perfect example of disregarding everything established about a character and writing them poorly.

>dissing bagpipes

You must be over 18 to post here.

yeah. It just single handedly killed the metroid franchise that was healty the second before.
Just imagine what a shitty way to die. Metroid has died in a worse way than all those execution videos published by isis. They stuffed metroid in a cage after skinning it and slowly submerged it in a pool filled with boiling acidic piss. That's Metroid:other M

If you removed the shadow this could be one of those gifs where he can rotate in both directions

>not understanding the reference
>dissing
don't you have grandkids to visit?

>Looking back was other m reallly THAT bad?

Yes. There's a reason it's the undisputed worst Metroid ever made

Underage: the thread

It wasn't until you showed up.

...

This man speaks the truth.

I'll bite
How is stating your disdain for one of the newest installments of a long running franchise underage?

...

the only game that comes close to as annoying as other m is fusion

>Underage: the thread

how does hating an objectively bad game make someone underaged?

It doesn't, he's just underage and trying to cover his tracks

I understand what they were trying to do with it, but it missed on pretty much every level. I do agree with their thinking that Metroid needed to move on from Prime, but unfortunately they may have stuffed the series in a coffin for good.

The thumbs-up sign had been used by the Galactic Federation for ages. Me, I was known for giving the thumbs-down during briefing. I had my reasons, though... Commander Adam Malkovich was normally cool and not one to joke around, but he would end all of his mission briefings by saying, "any objections, lady?" He was joking, but others weren't. At the time I felt surrounded by people who treated me like a child or used kid gloves because I was a woman. And yet, with Adam, I was grateful for the nod... My past has left me with an uneasy soul, and as a result, it touched me on some level that Adam would acknowledge that past by calling me something delicate -- like "Lady." And I knew more than anyone that every word from Adam was deliberate. My thumbs-down was a two-fold response: a sign of derision at being called a lady, and a signal of my complete understanding of the mission orders.The other soldiers were always willing to support me with easy smiles, despite the fact that I clearly had so much yet to learn. Among them was Anthony. In the face of his well-meaning behavior, and that of other soldiers, my response was to become increasingly bitter. I was a child, always with something to prove. A chip on my shoulder. And I was angry. I felt that if I let my guard down, I would easily by broken. And beyond that, I was scared. But even in the naivete of my youth, I could see in Adam's joking manner how close he felt to me. Adam knows my past. And he knows me better than anyone else. Confession time. Because I was so young when I lost both of my parents, there's no question I saw Adam as a father figure. When I rebelled against him, I knew I could get away with it. And his paternal compassion in the face of my rebellion reinforced the special bond I felt with him. I understood well that chances were slim that I would ever find anyone that understood me like Adam. And yet... When the time came, I still left his side. I was so young. Young and naive...

God dammit.

> My thumbs-down was a two-fold response:

This part always gets me the most angry for some reason.

HOW THE FUCK DID SAKAMOTO FORGET ABOUT THE CHOZO REEEEEEE

I don't understand.

Why the fuck would you want to defend Other M now?

What could you possibly gain from that?

No idea.

Hell, there are people on Sup Forums that still defend DmC

yes

stop being a drama queen autist

I saw it a 7€ a month ago and got it without thinking. Holy shit is fucking awful. I didn't think it could be that bad.

Would you say that it deserves a "Minus Five Stars" award?

It was a massive disappointment but still somewhat enjoyable outside of the cutscenes. It's a disgrace of a Metroid game though. Prime Hunters is still the series low point.

To give it any sort of aknowledgement is a mistake. Even if it is a bad one. Just ignore it and let it die forgotten.

It's so ACfag can find this thread in the archives and use it as an example of Sup Forums loving Other M.

Hard mode: talk about the good things it had and what it did right

The CGI cutscenes had good graphics.

Yup. it even retroactively ruins samus because now you know she was always meant to be the creator's shit tier waifu.

good graphics for the wii

Short hair Samus

That's pretty much it

I STILL HAVE NIGHTMARES, YOU FUCKER

I remember.

Is it finally happening?
Is Sup Forums finally becoming contrarian enough to defend other M?

He didn't. Couldn't have, since he directed Zero Mission and made Old Bird canon. Sakamoto willingly ignored Samus' upbringing for the sake of the Adam narrative.

I think it's just some shitposters

Yeah, it's bad. Other M remains the only game I've ever sold after 25 years of gaming.
