V. While MGS4 was a nanomachine filled hell it still pressed a lot of right buttons for fans of the series, had at least a couple of great boss fights, and an ending that, while some don't like, still had plenty of emotion behind it and gave a happy end for a guy who had nothing but bad ends.
V however had little to no plot and what was there was either butchered for tapes that took you out of the moment due to their optional nature, or was about vocal chord parasites that were the origin of everything human, oh and what made the Cobra's powerful. No bosses, copy paste enviroments, repetitive nature that bordered on MMO tier, and Venom was a mute that wouldn't even be able to fool a child let alone Zero into thinking he's Big Boss, yet for some reason everyone buys it because "lol narrative don't think so hard"
Quiet had too much importance, returning characters were completely out of character, and the game had no ending.

But it's ok because Tuxedo and Boss suit DLC.

MGS4: retarded story and no gameplay

MGSV: no story and good gameplay

They're both pretty disappointing.

MGSV because it had a shitload of potential that got squandered by being pushed out the door too soon.

The things I miss most from PW are

>the vehicle battles which were hard (at first)
>less grinding

MGS V had to sacrifice some more ridiculous elements like tranqing helicopter pilots and kaz in a speedo because of the tone of the game

Don't get me wrong there were some interesting mechanics but the game shot itself in the foot by going open world.

>>321353426
4 had better gameplay mechanics for sneaking than V. The issue is the level design in 4 completely threw all that out the window after act 2. If the whole game revolved around sneaking in the middle of an armed conflict it would have been fucking amazing.

He's not wrong. The world design shapes the gameplay and by making it open world that had to alter the mechanics to fit what they had planned.

V by a fucking mile. 4 gave me everything I wanted from a sequel, and more, and even more stuff I didn't even want. In hindsight, 4 has many problems, but being a disappointment it was not.

TPP's bosses were few in number but they were far better than any of the ones in 4 or PW. Hell, they're better than many of the bosses in 2 and 3.

MGSV 4

Story development
Character development
Gameplay
Still has the codec
Proper controls layout
Platforming
Good level design
Varying levels
Multiple Bimoes
Multiple enemies
Multiple Bosses
Atmosphere
Actually a full game with a complete ending

MGSV:
Literally none of the above
Decent gameplay

Which do you fucking think was better for fuck sake?

MGSV which was 90% of PC's first metal gear game or the last actual Metal Gear game in the franchise which was 4?

Fuck MGSV and the new fags who ride that garbage unfunished generic AAA muh explosionz piece of shit game. Fuck them.

V

Kojima hated making 4 and only made it as a "fuck you" to everyone who didn't understand his message at the end of MGS2. He understood that most gamers are retarded stoners so he made a Michael Bay tier game that was dumbed down just enough so that casuals would understand what was going on and think that it was a deep game.

V on the other hand, was a game the Kojima was actually excited about making. In every interview he appeared happy to be promoting it, claiming it was his magnum opus and a true work of art. It was supposed to be the missing link to complete the story and tie everything together. But no, it was an incomplete failure with stale characters and a forgettable and irrelevant story that tried to be like a zombie-themed TV series.

I would say 5, but it gave us the weird ass Joosten-obsessed crowd for a while (hell, there's still a pretty active board dedicated to her on 8ch) which was pretty funny.

MGS4's gameplay had a lot more depth and little tricks, but the level layout didn't take full advantage of them and some people went through the entire game without using even half of what's there. MGSV sacrificed depth for simplicity so you saw everything Venom had to offer in the first 3 hours.
>>
>>321352558
I wasn't into the series at the time 4 came out, so V.
>>
>>321355964
If only we had known that there was no story to spoil.

Open world killed the MGSV. There is no debate.
>>
>>321356005
Really V didn't make great use of the open world either. Missions were usually confined to small sections and side ops only happened at specific points on the map.
>>
V by faar

Anyone who says otherwise didn't own ps3 lmao
>>
>>321352558
MGS4 is a complete adventure with climax and an spectacular ending.

MGSV has a beginning, it tries to build up into something huge, but it amounts to nothing, after Episode 1, the story is pretty much finished and rest is just filler to tie the loose ends. No climax, no conclusion. It's a sandbox game with simple story shoved in it.
>>
>>321356631
I agree completley. Only a few missions forced you to go to one location then another, most were just happy putting you at random slav tent base 4 and be done with it, then Africa happened and we were all living at that damned airport. There's no point in offering any kind of depth to the controls when the entire game plays worse than GZ's Camp Omega.
>>
>>321352558
V. MGS4 at least build momentum and it actually has pay off (actually several ones) V barely does anything with the momentum it builds and its ending is completely anti climatic.
>>
4 is better in every way except amount of gameplay. The gameplay, story, music, cut scenes, charm, and even the graphics (if we got a PC port with upresed graphics that is) are all better in 4.
>>
>>321355463
There is never a good way to reference Jojo because Jojo is the MLP of anime.
>>
>>321355819
There is a place for everything, MGS was never the best stealth game gameplay wise but it was among the best thanks to the unique approach to storytelling. V has nothing of that the characters are like castrated version of their former (and future) self. Shit made no fucking sense. And the big twist of the game was completely fucking pointless.
>>
MGS4 is a very good looking hooker that grabs your cock and slowly jerks it untile you cum, talks way too much but she actually gets the job donw.

MGSV is a decent looking hooker that starts twisting into strange positions but never bring you to orgasm, she is also slightly retarded.

4 was far more disappointing because at that point in time MGS was still good so I was hyped as fuck.

Since the series had devolved into mediocrity by the time V came out, I wasn't expecting much, so I wasn't really disappointed. Only an idiot would have been hyped for TPP. It's like they say, you fool me once...

5, easily. 4 was a complete mess and criminally short, but it at least managed to remind me what I loved so much about the series.

5 managed to be a much longer game but only by being really repetitive and removing almost everything special about the series in the first place. The gameplay was improved but not enough over 4 that it actually made up for losing everything else.

Except he's not? one of the plot strings in MGS4 was that while Snake is a clone, his DNA is just different enough for him to be his own man and that's why FOXDIE didn't affect him, different genetic markers. Then you have life experiences and different experiences shape people in different ways.
