@sepewrath Not to mention she's an orphan that had her parents killed by the space pirates who has been trained since early on by aliens to be a killing machine to begin with.

RIDLEY??????

@deifufu Would it had been better if it were Arina Malkovich? What difference does it make if it was a man or a woman? That's a poor way to view it. If you agree to take orders from someone, its going to be a man or woman, last I checked, those are the only options you have. When it comes to help, even Superman needs help every now and then, there's nothing wrong with that. And a huge coward would have never been there to begin with, so that comment is just absolutely wrong.

@sepewrath While taking that direction isn't a bad idea, taking it to extremes and portraying her as a useless stereotype who needs a man to order her around and is basically a huge fucking coward is what destroyed this game.

@DontEatWhales Well what you have to keep in mind is its not your character. They don't have to keep in mind what you expect of undeveloped character. On top of that, what was "sterotypical female" about it? A male can have the exact same character, looking up to someone as a father figure and all that. The only thing "female" you can say about is, is the maternal instincts towards the baby Metroid. And that's a product of Metroid II and Super Metroid.

good for her

I'm not saying that what Nintendo did with Samus' character was wrong. What I am saying is, it was done poorly and executed poorly. What most of us expect from Samus is a strong female protagonist who does not conform to the typical stereotypes of females. Yes, it didn't mesh with people's images but that is precisely the point. The character development should have been taken slowly instead of showing Samus almost opposite to what we expect of her.

Ridley killed her parents. There is a reason she despises Space Pirates with a vengence.

@DontEatWhales There are other ways, but its not necessarily the wrong way. We don't really know anything about Samus, her character has never been on display, all we have is the image we superimposed on her. You look at someone in Samus' situation, she's not going many people close to her. So of course the few people that she does let in, she will be overly attached to them. So its not such an odd thing for a person like that, it just didn't mesh with peoples image.

I swear, people are so damn ignorant! It's not a game that would be depicted as a great game (compared to today's standards), but at least Team Ninja and Nintendo were courageous enough to at least launch it!! I honestly enjoyed the story far more than the gameplay. :P
I love this song and I think it fits Samus in general. I couldn't imagine that Samus is a very happy or adjusted person. Her life sucks to put it bluntly. She plays the hero but she's not Link, her hands get very dirty. She committed genocide for the greater good, like you look at the Metroid's and you think its better for them and the rest of the galaxy if their dead. And while heavy handed at times, I think it was about time that they showed that in Other M.
