Hmm, I'm seeing a lot of mixed opinions on Metroid Prime 4. Some think it's good, some bad. At least the opinions seem consistent on the areas like the structure or NPCs, meaning it's down to a matter of preference on whether you like these things or not.
The vibe I’m getting from the reception is similar to what happens with legacy sequels to movies like Hocus Pocus or Coming to America or Freaky Friday. People built up such an expectation and the gap is so big that when you finally get that sequel, if it doesn’t match what you had in your head, you will walk away dissatisfied. I think keeping my expectations in check is why I really dug it.
Nice to read a positive review of the game. I'm only about two hours in and I like some of what I've played, but the game also just feels empty to me. The earlier Metroid Primes felt a lot denser in their world design. Still looking forward to playing the rest, though!

I'm glad you enjoyed it though.
