A super polished super game that not only brought Metroid out of its dormancy with a bang, but redefined the Metroid part of Metroidvania.
The game absolutely nails the ability to make you feel like an intergalactic badass. Not to mention a giant satisfying lore dump that really brings a lot of things together from the series at large. If you are a fan of Samus to any degree, this is a must play.
My only single complaint is that I think they overdid it with the Shinespark puzzles. And that's just personal taste. Outside of that, it's beautifully done, 10/10. And Nintendo: Please keep Samus in the forefront again. I'd love to spend more time with the coolest bounty hunter in the galaxy.
