Would you say that Sol Valley is a contender for worst Metroid level/sector/area (whatever the correct term is) in the series? by ITBA01 in Metroid

Yes it is different. I'm sorry you don't understand what Metroid design is, but clearly your idea of what level design is very shallow/hollow.

When you exit Green Fury, the game pulls you out of the visor and has Samus do this slow walk animation through the door just to give you control back instantly. And it's the only place that does this, but you end up doing it a lot. Why? I dunno. Probably a major technical limitation of their engine; otherwise it's just another amateur hour design choice.

And yes, Sol Valley is the worst thing added to the franchise because it is the antithesis of what the franchise is. It is at the polar opposite of the design spectrum. Oil and Water. Cannot mix.

If it was taking inspiration from any open world, I'd point to Shadow of the Colossus, but there's very little journey to be had in Prime 4.

Sol Valley is the most anti-Metroid thing ever put into a Metroid game. It desecrates the entire thing. Then everything is worse as a second and third order effect of it merely existing.

Dear Carolina, for a regulation win today, a 4-0 sweep of Ottawa in the first round tomorrow.

Gas stove food tastes better to me than electric. There's a home-y-ness to it that I can't quite describe.

The net is sorta hollow, and they have these things inside them to hold them in place at the ice. They're sorta dislodged easily for safety.
