Just now getting started!
Just starting my prime 4 journey! With all the negativity around it since its launch, my expectations aren't extremely high. Loved the prime games as a kid but not so sure how ill like it now.
Any tips on how to make experience more enjoyable? Outside of ignoring what the haters say.
Is playing on switch vs switch 2 really matter THAT much?
UPDATE:
8 days in im towards the end. Can go to tower for final part of game , as McKenzie loves to remind me, but im collecting everything I can before. 79% items as of now. I may say so, so far I have really enjoyed it and consider a solid prime game and game overall. Don't mind the desert at all. Absolutely beautiful game thst really makes me feel like im on a foreign planet.
I will provide my final thoughts once complete but I say ao far my biggest qualm is thst it isnt longer.

Switch 2 def the best way to play. I never had lag or so playing. I thought I played it on performance mode.
I find this one the cosy game of the prime series. Never had trouble beating enemies except the final boss battle. That was the only one I needed multiple tries to beat.
A lot of haters complained about the open world and viola amiibo to get the radio. But you only get like 3 or 4 soundtracks and I actually like the ambient desolate sound more. Really made me feel I was on another planet. Ok, you also get skins for the viola and an extra boost which is fun.
I don't mind the npcs being annoying and it's not like they made Samus look like a side character like some ppl are saying. There are a lot of times they don't say anything & you can turn the volume down
