Huh... I don't like being stuck for long periods of time. If I get stuck in a adventure game and can't figure it out fast enough I'll go look it up in a FAQ. Wandering around over and over trying to solve a puzzle based on something you probably either missed or are overlooking isn't very fun... and neither is running around without a clue where you're going. Except in Metroid, unlike an adventure game, you've got to deal with enemies as you do it so it's even a bit worse.
