What's fucked up is that we already know from 17 years ago that Samus having a sidekick CAN work, but for some reason, they just refuse to reunite her with pikachu

Rather than informing the player of a consideration they need to have to successfully play the game, you are *offloading* a consideration. That's one less thing the player needs to think about while playing the game.

Consider the example in that Metroid article that's making the rounds. Having a voice tell you "hey, I think you might've missed something" when you bypass a save room doesn't teach the player to look out for save rooms. It teaches them to listen for instructions.

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond delivers the series' trademark gameplay in spades, but I fear one very annoying addition might derail the whole thing
Metroid Prime 4: Beyond has plenty of the good stuff. It also has an incredibly annoying, incredibly un-Metroid sidekick who won't shut up.
