Started with the original game in 1989.

>>322311347

I felt that its the one that was most comfortable in its own style.
Its also the most lighthearted of the games which makes it easy to enjoy.

Also, it was one of the few of Kojimas titles where I felt he was actually trying to tell a story and not make some sort of point about whatever is going through his mind at that moment in his life.

Agree about TPP, I honestly watched/read NOTHING about either of them until about two weeks before TPP release had the GZ bundle.

Im almost glad I didnt play GZ until just before TPP because I would've worried and bargained with myself for almost two years istead of having my disappointment wrapped up in a neat little bow.

Im not even sad anymore, Im just glad its over.

I honestly stopped caring about MGS after TPP.

Ill always have nice memories of the series, but 4, despite its countless flaws, was a good ending point.

I would seriously rather want another MGR more than any of what MGS has become and I didnt even like it that much.
>>
>>322314836
Yes. The gameplay is the best in the series and for all the bitching about the story I thought it was better than 4's and Peace Walker's. Like I said though I've been playing the games before they became full of cutscenes so I didn't mind the transition back to a raw gameplay-driven experience.

MGS1, 2 and 3 all had a bunch of cutscenes which were placed at very well paced points in the story, and were very good to watch. MGSV didn't even have that really, they were sparse and most were unnecessary.

Nigga you high? Unless were talking about the NES titles the Gameplay to Cutscene ratio has always been more of the latter than the former. You could beat MGS1 in less than 2 hours wothout Cutscenes, but a full playthrough takes about 5-6.

I don't think I can, that's pretty much exactly how I feel. Though maybe MGS = PW, as MGS1 has aged quite a bit, and PW was also a portable game with grinding but has aged far better.

Appearantly not with sleep deprivation. Though then again, I cant even see how hipster you have to to delude yourself throughout series to come out in 2015 and say "finally its like it was back then".

I mean, you must've liked something about all those games if you stuck with them, right? I couldnt imagine sticking this long with it if I didnt like the abundance of cutscenes.
>>
>>322315819
Whoa now, I never said I disliked those games or the cutscenes. MGS1 is my favorite in the series after all, and even my lowest ranking game (MG1) is still damn good IMO. I was just saying that I didn't mind the lack of cutscenes in V too much because it reminded me of the relatively sparse plot of the originals, particularly MG1. The only game I dislike the cutscenes in was Twin Snakes.

Huh, weird I loved how OTT Twin Snakes was. Anytime the series starts taking itself too serious my interest starts waning. I realized that after going back to MGS2 and changed from the typical Bandana-tipping faggot that praises it to the high heavens to being just meh about it.
Guess that shows how diverse the fanbase has become over the years.

As Boss fights were pretty cool. personality wise they were pretty much Cobra tier (ie, damn near Pokemon.)

It had just as much melodrama as the rest of the series, and Old Snake is arguably the best version of Solid Snake
>>
>>322317121
For me it felt far too easy, boring, the bosses were the fucking worst (Somehow TPP's were even worse) and I hate the segmented, unnatural flow the whole ops thing adds (Choosing your mission and doing side ops)

I love that picture too, but it's too fucking true that the Boss is dragging the series down. This is the worst part about the prequels. In the same way that the Star Wars universe became ALL ABOUT Darth Vader/ Anakin, the whole story of MGS became about the Boss' will being misinterpreted and Solid Snake being the only one who understood it.

I don't think MGS2 is the best one but the Tanker Incident refers to the first episode of the same game where you play as Snake.

I don't get what's /v/ love for MGS3. That game had no story, it was just a recycled Bond plot. Big Boss turned into a less charismatic and shallow Solid Snake clone. The Boss was a literal retard that literally fucked up the world because of her retardness. Unmemorable and irrelevant codec conversations you can skip and won't miss anything of value.
The camouflage, stamina and food management improvements don't make it up for all the mistakes that game had.

>>322311347
MGS2 was the best because it is the only one that actually makes you question things. The rest are good but they are more along the lines of action films where you shut your brain off to watch.

It's a real damn shame that the only relevance they had to the plot were that they were the "Sons of the Boss." I guess it shows that in order for there to be a new Boss, Naked Snake would have to conquer the Cobras and the old Boss, but it's still nothing compared to FOXHOUND.

I love 3, but the Cobras are so pointless that some fans had to find some meaning in them by saying that in order to become Big Boss, Naked Snake had to overcome his Pain, Fear, Oblivion(The End), Fury, Sorrow, and his Joy. It's stupid.

Agreed. Dude I can't believe these faggots think 3 is better... Fedora tier fag lords.

>>322320316
I agree 2 had the best og metal gear stealth gameplay. Perfected from mg to mg2 to mgs1 and finally at mgs2. mgs3, 4, and the rest all felt like more unique experiences and while not really bad they were not the tight stealth the series started with. It makes me sad how little of mgs2 you actually spend sneaking though. So much time is spent chasing bombs or platforming off of falling pipes or doing other weird dumb shit instead of sneaking. and the rooms are tiny themselves only taking a second or two to get thru each for the most part. the game really shines in the vr missions though and i thank goodness there are so many of those. when soliton radar died the old stealth died with it unfortunately.

3 is my favorite in the series so don't get me wrong, but 2 did have the best metal gear style stealth gameplay. and again all the bonus vr missions which came with substance are such a great time.

It's hard to blow 8 hours of cutscenes "out of proportion", not to mention the best gameplay coming and going after 2 acts. It's not hard to shit on MGS4 at all and even I as a big fan can acknowledge that. As the final game in the saga it should have been as balanced as 3 in terms of game design.

Is Ocelot actually possessed by Liquid, or was it always the whole nano/hypno thing he did in 4? How did Raiden and Solidus get on that roof? Why was Miss Fortune still able to make RAY's missiles not hit everyone?
In 4 Ocelot is trying to get rid of the Patriots, so how does him pretending to be possessed "trick" the Patriots exactly?
I don't like MGS2

First three are the only good MGS games.
Everything else is optional.

MGS4 ties up the series just nicely even if the whole game isn't that great.
>>
>>322323603
MGS4 has great gameplay, but it was bogged down by too much story and talking. I personally didn't mind the cutscenes all that much, but the loading times sucked from chapter to chapter and there simply wasn't enough gameplay period.

MGSV also has great gameplay, but has the opposite issue of being directionless. It's literally like the Bethesda games that have come out over the years, saturated with shit to do with little to no impact on the goal at large, wherein the main story is rather short, irrelevant, uninspired, etc. Capturing people to feed your base is fine and all but 300-400 guys later you're only seeing marginal increases to effectiveness of the various teams, R&D being especially useless in this game. There's the fulton upgrade and the sneaking suit and all that basically required shit if you're to beat some of the missions but otherwise it's literally the same ~12 guns/gadgets with marginal increases to damage, accuracy, maybe a scope or a UBGL. Fucking Fallout 4's weapon customization did more to aid the feeling of progression than the R&D team in MGSV. Not to mention the worthlessness of vehicles, the waiting times in R&D and outer ops, the lack of any flow whatsoever in the main missions that were 5 miles apart and lasted about 37 seconds, among various other inconsistencies, issues, and flat out poor choices (ie. The Skulls).

Oh, and the older MGS games handled like fucking bathtubs at times, but at least you never got stuck in the fucking terrain or trying to climb a slight incline. Why? Because the games had a focus, unlike the shit they plopped out in September.

tl;dr - MGSV is to MGS1/2/3 as Fallout 3/NV/4 is to Fallout 1. Take it for what you will.
>>
>>322324419
Agree with this.

MGS2>MGS1=MGS3
All classics.

The rest are just varying degrees of disappointing, but still potentially worth playing.
>>
>>322324803
MGS3>MGS1>MGS2
>>
>>322324581
Why the hell are you so hung up on what games do and don't tie the story up? It's pretty obvious MGS2 wasn't meant to be tied up anyway. Focus on what actually makes the games good, it's not just about how the games tie into the overall plot which is what you seem to think.
>>
>>322324487
Nope!
>>322324581
>MGS4 ties up the series just nicely
It ties the series up very poorly. I guess it's nice if you're so autistic that you can't enjoy the series unless it has an ending, no matter how ham-fisted and garbage it is, but I have the ability to appreciate the games for what they are rather than how they end.
>>
MGS1/2/3 = Neon Genesis Evangelion

MGS4 = End of Evangelion

PW/GZ/TPP -= Rebuilds
>>
>>322324991
But that's all MGS2 does do good, the gameplay is constant backtracking and the camera doesn't cooperate at all, the sword makes the game easy but it controls like shit.

>>322312134

Tier list of fans

MGS3 usually cool guys, but might be gay.
MGS4 very reserved and used to really taking alot of punishment from more aggressive fans. But always cute.
MGS1 nostalgia fags of the highest degree, but usually good for cuddling with while playing classic vidya.
MGS2 try-hard bookworm types. can be adorable when defending things they are only parroting from other online, but only so long as you don't let them onto how easily predictable they are.
MG+MG2 these are always old bara japanese men. they may not even really care about the rest of the franchise, but if you will carry their children then they will support and love you deeper than any others.
GZ+MGSV only good for a weekend fuck and then on to the next guy. better get checked for the std's after a night with one of these.
Spinoffs and Others basically people you would fuck after getting really hot at the club, but wouldn't really fit your usual regimen if you were sober. while some are better than others you can't say you didn't have a good time.

Overall I'd say that MGS3 is the best with MGS2 a close second.

Ground Zeroes was my first MGS.

>>322311347
It isnt better than 2 since they made half of the game about navigating through your pause menu.

Why does the MGS fanbase like to compare the games they like so much more than anyone else?

I feel like playing MGS3 again. Does Subsitence change anything major other than changing the camera and removing those minigames?

Because the games are extremely different and it has alot of hipster fags in it.

>Solidus was trying to destroy the Patriots, but why was that a bad thing?

Maybe you mean why Solidus is the main villain of the game. It's because he killed Raiden's parents and Olga.

>Is Ocelot actually possessed by Liquid, or was it always the whole nano/hypno thing he did in 4?

Originally it was intended to be that way but 4 throw it into the trash with the NANOMACHINES bullshit.

>How did Raiden and Solidus get on that roof?

Some of the cutscenes were censored at that point so it doesn't explain how they went through being inside Arsenal Gear to being on Manhattan.

>Why was Miss Fortune still able to make RAY's missiles not hit everyone?

Because her powers were real, not nanomachines involved. "She IS Lady Luck"

>>322327194
im more worried about V being anywhere near the best

>>322327130
Entering a room and playing the game is a lot better than going through 4 different menus so I can micromanage a stamina meter that barely did anything other than make your stomach growl or your aim sway a little.

2 is the best and one of the greatest games of all times.
>>
>>322327279
Some of the best games ever made have backtracking, you have to be an ill-informed dipshit to think its a bad thing. Especially when you consider what it can do for the narrative.

I prefer 2 over 3.

But holy shit, the final boss fight with The Boss is insanely cool. Sniping at her while hiding in the white flower field, shooting each other with sub-machine guns, and those moments when she would rush you to take you on, one on one in CQC as Snake Eater played in the background was glorious.

PS2 subsistence is good. HD collection is a good choice if you want more than just MGS3

Why do people not understand that gameplay =/= controls? MGSV had great controls, but terrible, repetitive, boring gameplay.

MGS1, MGS2, and MGS3 might not have modern casul controls, but they all had fluid, fun, engaging, and memorable gameplay.
