This is one of the main reasons I tend to like MGS2 more than the other games, due to it's atmosphere and plot and it sets up the overarching villain of the entire series. Plus Snake being a supporting character makes him an even better and deeper character.

Spoiler: Spoilerz

Just for Kojima to make it the happy go lucky MGS3 support crew, because Kojima is a hack that needs to be tardwrangled whenever he's writing on his own.

How dare you criticize the God Kojima! I'll report you to him! So he can have his lawyers try to silence you!.. like he tried to get Konami's lawyers to do back in the day to someone who shit talked how bad he really was online.

I remember seeing that video. He actually ran to jews to go after Metacritic for people giving that pompous self suck fest that Death Stranding was the shitty reviews it deserved. I really see anyone still carrying water for MGSV as a fucking retard. The (((gameplay))) was boring. Stupid AI. Boring same missions for 60 hours. ONLY IF KINGDOM OF THE FLIES etc etc. Unironically kill yourselves already.

Modern Kojima fans are the same ones that still support Naughty Dog. They'll literally eat anything they shit onto a plate.

Regarding MGS3, I want Para-Medic in my life.

That is all.

I had a good time with Death Stranding. But MGS5, over the years I grew to not like it as much. One point plus is having Eli / Liquid again, but beside that it's a mess.

Its trailer remains fucking good though.

MGS5 was a comfy war sandbox, but anyone who claims that it's a GOTY or some hidden gem that would be redeemed with less cut content are morons. MGS5 was a good game, but not really a good MGS game, similarly to how Survive was a decent stealth/survival crafting game but not a good MGS game. If the final game was more like Ground Zeroes, then maybe people would hate it less.

I don't know how anyone can enjoy Death Stranding, it's a literal walking simulator. The shoehorned "combat" doesn't help, it just distracts from the main gameplay core.

I did like the grinding aspect of DS. But it could have literally been anything and I would've enjoyed it the same. It's a 4/10 maybe 5/10 game. Just like the average was prior to Kojima shitting blood over it and calling an audible. It's not even remotely interesting as a "story." It's so far up it's own ass, and needs at least three that I remember scenes where a character needs to have exposition dialogue for the player to explain the story and every time I tuned it out was completely indifferent to it. It has nice scenery to play in. But all you can interact with is the stupid human types, or the fat gas monsters and neither are fun. The boss fights are fucking abysmal.

If it wasn't under the MGS marquee, it would've been a long forgotten game from early PS4. I think it barely scratches 7/10. The sandboxes while huge, have nothing in them. Every game forward from MGS4 just slowly guts everything that made the PS2-PS3 era fun. The 2D foliage placements is fucking laughable in a fourth gen game where as you'll play Snake Eater and bend individual blades of grass.

If it was just fleshed out fully from a gameplay standpoint I would have loved it. The engine felt great, there was loads of fun unique ways to tackle an objective, I just really liked playing it for maybe the first 10-20 hours. Then the hollowness became apparant because you've practically seen all the gameplay at that point, the objectives are all the same again (except now they gots helmets, oh no) and you're just working towards more weapon upgrades, unlocking the next story beat and eventually the ending which were clearly chopped together haphazardly.

I know "unfinished" is controversial because he probably never would have finished it.... but I'm still calling it unfinished because the potential was so great and the bones of the game (engine, mechanics, controls) were tight. It's like the whole project shit the bed right after the ground(zeros) work was laid down. A concrete foundation under a mudhut.

 

[Kung Pow]

The problem with V is that people often mistake the missions for the story and they don't realize that the whole game is the story. There is a bunch of cutscenes that you can't replay it unless you start over or have special requirements like the nuke ending. But if you combine all of them it is more or less the length of your average MGS game. Same goes with MGS1, where if you do an all codec calls playthrough it is more or less the size of the campaign of 4, believe it or not.

Do you mean what we got wasn't what was intended? Because I've seen nothing that would've changed the player experience drastically. The only thing I recall, was a robot vehicle thing that was supposed to be in it but wasn't.

 

[TheArtilleryman]

Do you mean what we got wasn't what was intended?

I have no idea as to what their intentions were, though I get the feeling that the developers didn't know either. My point is build on the gameplay as it was great at its core and could have carried the game even in the absence of a story. More variety in the maps and less dead space, more animals, more bosses, more collectibles, more mission types, more fun unlockables, more CQC moves etc.

A good story would have also been nice but the premise is so contrived and silly that I'm not sure that's even possible.

FIFY. those MGS4 retcons were so retarded

It was half-finished by creator admission, and people still called it a "masterpiece". Disgusting, and sites like IGN giving out 10/10s like candy doesn't help... I wonder why no one trusts the molech mainstream media?

And I forgot that GZ was a fucking Paid Demo to help fund and bide time for MGSV's release - and Koji & Co. STILL couldn't get it done. Konami blows ass, but the older I get the more I realize Koji ALWAYS went over-budget, he always brought drama to situations and when he was VP of Konami he accomplished diddly squat.

 

[Burt Ryan]

Plus Snake being a supporting character makes him an even better and deeper character.

On this part I agree. Coming off from MGS1, where he's a "legend" according to Meryl, in MGS2 his legendary status is so much more emphasized and I love it.

Then you see him 5 years later and he's Old Snake.


Regarding MGS5, I would have liked better a Sniper Wolf reference over Quiet.

I remember being so burthutt that he had a mustache for some reason lol I thought it was so out of character. But Homojima loves Lee Van Cleef.

I do love that they gave us MGS2 Snake as a mask. But they really fucking fumbled not doing MGS1 and the sneaking suit and the MGS2 suit.

I wanna live in a world where they re-release this, and throw in so many extra outfits and masks. Although it hit PC it would do away with the need for that.

IGN giving 10/10 doesn't mean anything, they gave Veilguard a 9/10 and Resident Evil 4 Remake a 10/10 while shitting on the original, how "outdated" it is.

Oh believe me, I will never get over the 40$ paid demo, and how many people ate that shit up. The only upside today is that there is a mod for Phantom Pain that lets you go back to Camp Omega and not only explore it to your heart's content, but you even get a recreation of the main Ground Zeroes mission as well, on top of many more original missions. For all intends and purposes, it is a third sandbox, which is pretty cool, but it does require you to own GZ as it draws all assets from there. If it was a 15$ official DLC it would almost be worth it.

Actual Big Boss shows up on Mother Base, drops off a squirming sack and says "hnnngh, found another blonde kid, figured we could keep it with the first one. IDK this one likes guns and I think it's a girl; you still got that... zombie sniper lady? OK back to my solo motorcycle murderin' adventure, good job being me, don't tell Miller I was here."

MGS2 is my favorite simply for the fact that it’s so damn accurate to the present. (Solidus is also cool as fuck.) MGS3 is very close but it doesn’t reach that level.

Modern Kojima fans are the same ones that still support Naughty Dog. They'll literally eat anything they shit onto a plate.

Kojima is only liked because he throws a bunch of shit at the wall with his writing. (1-3 were good because he was tard-wrangled with those games) He’s like a worse version of Yoko Taro, because at least Yoko Taro makes consistently good games. (And is actually likable)

Resident Evil 4 Remake a 10/10 while shitting on the original, how "outdated" it is.

And yet I would much rather replay the “outdated” game.
