Delta_Force 10/18/21 2:40:48 PM #4:	I kinda agree. But it's kinda like that for all (most?) Nintendo characters. I want them to have a story and actual character development but then I remember that it's a Nintendo thing to not do that and I just shrug and move on. --- More Bush on Obama's Clinton!

iPhone_7 10/18/21 2:54:51 PM #23:	They could expand on her character by focusing on the bounty hunter part of her reputation and having to deal with civilians and make tough choices. Kinda like the Mandalorian. But instead shes always going off to seemingly barren worlds full of dangerous wildlife and experimental science facilities & ancient ruins. Shes usually acting on behalf of the galactic federation or whatever it is in the Metroid universe. Bounty Hunter Samus Aran. That being said, give us Metroid Prime 4 already! --- Sig User Logic https://imgur.com/lA5fm7w <cite>iPhone_7 posted [p:959159599] in Kotaku on ...
