It's easy to get boggled down by current development, player base, hackers, and more time sensitive issues, but taking a step back and appreciating the game at face value shows all that it accomplished. Your fondest memories of this game exist and they showcase near perfect execution of a team fighting game with well thought out classes and charm.
The sheer isolation in a foreign world already holds a candle, but that combined with the most successful form of mass genre blending makes Metroid Prime 2 an experience I'll never be able to relive. Exploring a once-lived-in world with so much lore that's ripe for the picking (if you choose to pick) got me invested despite my usual distaste in lore deep diving. Metroid Prime Trilogy edition is my particular favorite.

A bit of a hidden gem that leaves two approaches to every mission: stealthily kill people until caught and blow up everything, or blow up everything from the start. The physics of destroying buildings is the best out there but the world itself can seem lackluster. Good variety in weapons and a narrative decent enough to keep you engaged.
