Now I’ve seen everything.

At least Other M had amazing graphics and unique gameplay. I enjoy the game enough despite its storytelling and forced linearity because there are some great action moments and some genuinely insane enemies on hard mode. But Fusion is basically like a weaker version of Super Metroid.

Ultimately, if Nintendo wants to have more story elements in its games, it needs to hire a real writer. Not just have a game designer jot down a few plot points, but actually get somebody who knows about storytelling. That’s something many other major game studios have done, but Nintendo seems to think it’s beneath them.
