Metroid

I'm old, so I like the silent Samus à la the originals. I like the creepy beeping music and the vacuum of space kind of vibe, devoid of any interpersonal relationship melodrama

I don't mind a Samus that talks and has personality, but other M was hot garbage. You have to get her personality right, and it's not like there is only one single right way to portray her, but feeling the mommy feels just is not it.

A woman who has had a whole lifetime of decisions and knows who she is does not look longingly at a distress beacon triggered by it being called a baby's cry.

Like... No. No. She also doesn't just refuse to use weapons when they're needed because she's told not to.

If she gets a personality it just needs to be better than that.

It's Metroid so... I just want the gameplay and lore to be good wherever or not Samus has lines at all.

I don't care who says what, as long as Samus says nothing.
