I temporarily removed the He Panned It Now He Sucks entry for being overly-negative Complaining About People Not Liking the Show, hoping we can come to a consensus here.

  • He Panned It Now He Sucks: Former God of War developer-turned-YouTuber David Jaffe complained about the game's level design, particularly in what has now been dubbed "The Room": an area in Artaria where the player must shoot at hidden destructible blocks in the ceiling to progress. Fans were quick to mock him, pointing out that the room had enemies littered near the blocks and a passageway shown above it to goad the player into shooting at the ceiling. Jaffe snapped back at critics, claiming that even if that was the case, there are also too many extra rooms to explore besides "The Room." His attempt to showcase this inadvertently demonstrated the exact opposite; that the developers deliberately box you into a small section of the map where "The Room" is the only point of interest.note 

As I mentioned in my previous edit, it comes across as adding on the dogpiling Jaffe is already getting, and taking a clear side. We don't need to detail every single thing he was wrong about or opinionate on it. We can just say that Jaffe made a statement, people had good reason to disagree, and then move on.

I made an edit under Author's Saving Throw regarding Adam's character and the infamous hell run from Other M; looks like there's contention.

The issue here is that the idea of Adam sending Samus to the Pyrosphere w/o Varia is not canon. Even the authors of the localization didn't write it, fans merely assumed this to be the case based on the English version's lack of information.

So I don't think this counts as an example of the trope; the text as it stands inaccurately portrays this as textual when it never was in either version.

Would it be appropriate to add Anti-Climax Boss for the 'fourth' part of the final boss battle?

Mostly in the sense that it's just a "hold Y to win." But I won't press the point if it's contentious.
