Why is Samus so much better than other female characters?

Why is Samus so much better than other female characters?

Because you've beat your little micropenis to r34 of her so much that you've distorted your view of a supremely dull character in a robo-suit

Zelda is a better character than Samus and your image is too small.

what is this an LOL for ants?

Because of Samus's complete lack of character. The only way to win is not to play

the incompetence of OP reflects on how shit his opinions are.

Shitty image and Other M aside, because she gets things done and yet still manages to exude some personality despite minimal actual dialogue. And that > being an anime waifu, which is why people hated Other M.

Also doesn't have giant ugly eyebrows.

...

Because she's a blank slate character that has next to no characterization. That allows you to impress onto her whatever personality you want and convince yourself it's canon because there's nothing to contradict it. The more a character allows you to fill in the blank, the more you can lie to yourself and say "NO GUYZ! She's a good character! For serious!"

>a blank slate in a video game?! inconceivable! games are supposed to be about the story!

Sure.

Is this loss?

Because she kicks ass, it isn't so hard to understand.

>girls aren't allowed to emote unless it's snark

piss
off

Because she could have just as easily been a man, robot, or a hamster and it would make absolutely no difference to the game

A game where Fusion Samus and BotW Zelda team up and solve mysteries, please.

Yeah, because zelda singlehandedly holding back total evil for 100+years is so weak, what a fragile flower.

>wanting emotions of any kind in a VIDEO GAME

Her gender isn't (usually) pushed in your face. She's someone with a job to do and that's all that matters.

This

>No Boss from Snek
Disregard

I thought Curly shits all over you when you first meet because she thinks you're there to kill the babies.

>Lin instead of Elma
This author certainly knew the the game's target demographic

Go back to playing Metroid/Halo games

Her gender doesn't matter because her powers come from technology. Same with magical characters.

Because Metroid is one of the best platforming series around.

Stop responding to ACfag

>Not In My Video Games

NIM/v/ strikes again.

>Lin
Confirmed for not having played the game

lol

Samus is more alien space bird than woman.

>Acfag

who?

>misogyny

Stop stammering, Sup Forums. Sound out the word slowly.

Anonymous Coward

>females can't have more than a few paragraphs of dialog or they are annoying cunts
nice double standards shitlord

>The Baby

Because she gets shit done, I hope when another 2D Metroid is made, they go for her Fusion personality.

>muh skimpy outfits while best girl is showing her midriff
Fuck off

>literally has no personality until Other M where she becomes an overly emotional trainwreck

Protip: fan comics aren't canon

is Samus supposed to have a spaniard accent?

The joke is Other M, right?

...

>people replying to ACfag again

>she got sad then mad
Wow, she's nearly on Kirby's level of emotion.

The best video games of all time usually have no story, and the female characters in them are treated the exact same as the males. Often times they're literal pallet swaps. Really, who wants to play a special snowflake that has to pause the game constantly to tell you their feelings?

Key word is "usually" ACfag.

Are you a retard? Or just emotionally stunted that you can't understand basic body language?

>she got sad then mad
No you retard, she's mourning the loss of GF troopers and paying her respects like a normal fucking human being

If you can't even understand that then Cawadooty with "press F to pay respects" really is the game for you

Sorry, I guess I was completely blown away by her "character development."

>doesn't even blink

>shaking her fist is somehow good character development
>It takes this much to impress Metroid's fans since it shows shes more than a bimbo

I will never not be glad Metroid is dead

She literally does blink

"Usually" was the wrong word. I should've said "NEVER has a story, beyond the bare bones."

She does though, a split second before the camera cuts away to her closing his eyes

People like this are why all video games need to have a character vomit exposition instead of letting people figure out the plot.

>shitposting this hard

Why would you name that character development.webm? She's just reacting to something. It isn't even the first time she does it. Samus has been shown to be sympathetic.

>the story is more important than the gameplay
>characters have to explode in emotions or else they're badly written
>writing is more important than gameplay pacing

Shouldn't you guys be playing Uncharted or TLOU right about now?

iunno, I just downloaded it like that

I'm not though, this thread shows why the series is better off dead.

Afterall no one bought the last game so why should Nintendo waste their time with people who bite the hand that feeds them?

>literally none of those posts said any of that
Wow, it's like you're trying to surpass what you consider "shitposting" when the webm literally doesn't show any character development.

>Where's the part where she explains her emotions in a long drawn out monologue?
Go back to watching Naruto, retard.

...

She was.

Not anymore.

Is there anything more pathetic that someone that clings to the idea that what used to be a mute non character is a great female character?

>when the webm literally doesn't show any character development.
And why should it? This is a video game, not a cinematic experience.

Metroid fans are the worst. Always throwing shade at other franchises when there series never sells well.

Honestly that would be the first time in the series she's been shown reacting to something like that

>character development.webm
That's nothing. Check this out.
Metroid never handled 4 characters' development at the same time.

The Prime games sold millions

>because she gets things done and yet still manages to exude some personality despite minimal actual dialogue.

What is her personality like?

I think the idea is that Samus is proof that the only good female video game protagonist is a silent one. Stories and music are shit these days.

>Chunky literally tells you not to pick him
10/10

>three anons say Samus has no character
>some moron replies with a webm labelled "character development"
>pointing out that it's wrong = shitposting
Fuck off, dude.

Doesn't waste time but will go out of her way to help an entire species even if there's literally no benefit in it for her

She finished her mission on Aether withing 5 minutes of the game,she could have waited for her ship to fix itself and fucked off to collect her pay

>All Zeldas are the same

She has a videogamey personality, where her words are her actions, and her emotions and character development are the gameplay. That should be the default for all video games.

Is she hollywood level developed or super-deep in personality? no. But are her products video games? Yes. Compare that to cinematic movies like TLOU or Final Fantasy.

Nah it's more like autism

didn't she feel like shit after the metroid babby got killed

Dull.

But people say that's a strength.

>emoting is considered character development by Metroid fans
Samus had A LOT of character development in this game

Was that game a side scroller; if it's not a side scroller, it's not worth buying.

I know you're shitposting, but I'd argue that it's good because it tells you just enough about how Samus feels so that the player can fill in the blanks with his imagination rather than an unnecessarily long dialogue-heavy cutscene

First time in the series, you're thinking of Other M which happened later

Other M is a shit show that contradicts the other gamesanyway

>le sarcastic emotionless strong womyn
>better

Fuck Samus and Zelda, Palutena is the GOAT Nintendo girl.

They literally just went for the /ss/ angle with her and Pit

>Other M isn't canon meme

...

Terrific this thread again

>Other M is a shit show that contradicts the other gamesanyway
You disliking said shit show doesn't magically make it not exist.

>MADE GAME
What did she mean by this?

It's still a cutscene though
A forced one at that

There is more impact in having the player discover the body not Samus, but people honestly believe that the game is more about Samus the female with feelings rather than your adventure as a space bounty hunter.

I wasn't shitposting since people are impressed with a Metroid game having "character" over atmosphere.

Why was her gender not shown until the very end in the original; because it didn't fucking matter.

The suit is all the character you need,not Samus.

It's objectively bad

And? Other M is canon

The intriguing story was made into a game
>intriguing story made game

>You disliking said shit show doesn't magically make it not exist
Read, nigger.

Samus needs permission to be amused.

If Other M is canon that means the rest of the Metroid series isn't

Metroid fans are retarded, and think that BotW is a movie

The baby had the cure for space AIDs but said cure can also make weapons and shit.

Sorry, baby.
