Is Metroid: Other M a good video game?`





All of the talk about Star Wars Episodes 8 and 9 got me thinking about Other M for some reason.

If you completely removed the story, and had Samus find upgrades rather than arbitrarily being given permission to use them, then yes, it would be fine.

But the plot is so goddamn stupid that it drags the whole thing down a lot. It's fun, but still hard to actually like.

So yeah, there's a good game in there, it's just a shame it shares disc space with a godawful fanfic.

I liked it when I played it but I can't help but reflect on the game negatively. In hindsight I'd probably find it average.

I think Other M is the low point of the series. Ironically, it's the only one in the series I've played. I applaud Other M's efforts to be forward-thinking in their views of the problems that are inherent in a patriarchal society, but I also believe it falls short in its attempts to portray Samus as a strong feminist.

Strangely enough, I feel like The Last Jedi had the exact same issues, except the other way around.

Good, yes. Gameplay-wise, it's good, like a 7.5/10 kind of game.
