>>332683734
This is good...isn't it?
Every night, I can feel the hype.. and the missions.. even the cutscenes. The game I've lost.. the MGS I've lost... won't stop hurting. It's like they're all still there. You feel it too, don't you?
I can't enjoy any games now. Thank you, MGSV.
Plant your roots in me.
Why are we still here?

I completely forgot how pointless some of the missions were
>>332684224
Just to suffer
>>332683995
Give it back! It was ours, dammit!
The way all of the quotes from MGSV having to do with things being taken away from us also relate to our feelings about the game just seems to reaffirm the ludicrous theory that the game was meant to give the players a Phantom Pain.

Fuck, it still hurts.

Because Skullface is a dick of colossal proportions.
>>332686608
But even he was crushed by a fucking crane. Everyone important dies in such stupid ways, and only villain you get any sort of contact with whines his way to salvation.
How do we make Kojima give back our past?
>>332685817
>>332681923
Trailers were the best part of the game
>>332685817
I woke up at 5 AM to play it the moment it was available on Steam
The prologue was so fucking good, like hands down one of the all time great video game intros
I was high enough on just the feeling of playing a new MGS game to gloss over the flaws in chapter 1 and when I saw there was another chapter I almost shat my pants. Then I got to the real end and I literally couldn't believe that was it because it was so fucking shit. Bravo hackjima, you ruined video games.
>>332685420
Everything was a pretty steady downhill ride after you escape the skullies and get kaz onto the chopper.
I had to double check and see if his monologue was actually in game
>>332685420
>just woke up from 9 years coma
>Kaz, I'm already a demon
>>332687581
Don't act like Konami, the industry, and the people who kept wanting more MGS are blameless. TPP is the result of all of our sins, not just Kojima.
>>332687581
Fucking this.
When I finished chapter 1 I thought "well, that was amazing for 1/3 of the game. now shit's gonna get even better"
>le MGS5 was bad meme
fuck off. Kojima finally made a video game instead of a movie.
>>332688002

>>332687857
He's saying for, all intents and purposes, he might as well be dead.
There's nothing holding him back from fulfilling Kaz's lust for revenge.
As the plot progresses, we see that that's not quite the case.
>>332688510
You cleared that out for me. That makes sense.
Thanks, anon.

Knami force Kojima to either keep making MGS games (he wanted to stop after the first, even, which is why 2 was so off the wall) or see it go to someone else because of the demand. The sins of Konami are our sins.

It wouldn't be that bad if they timed the speech with the ride, but it's like skullface mistimed his speech and it ended too early so they both end up sitting there staring at eachother.

It was Kojima anons. It was always Kojima. The man didn't want to end after the first game or else MG2 to PW wouldn't have happened (PW even had Kojima insisting on directing it because he couldn't let go of the series he loved) so that meme has to die already. He just got worse as the years went on and TPP was the result of Kojima at his shittiest. He blew all of Konami's cash on shit no one wants, ran over time like he owned the joint, then jumped to the Sony ship the second TPP was "done" no fucks given.
He's a hack, has always been a hack, and the time for defending him is over.

Big Medic's voice is singing a country song, with an album due out this summer.
>>332689980
The trailer says nothing about the intentions of Kojima, and what, do you think they just changed the entire game the day the game launched?
On the contrary the first E3 trailer for the game already shows skull face and Snake in an impossible situation if they are the same person.
>>332689748
You just don't like what happened and Kojima's a face you can blame because he didn't visibly go crazy like Konami.
>>332690106
No they didn't, they just hinted at it.
>Snake walks through the hall and changes along the way
>Snake in MGS3 camo
>Snake in MGSPW camo
>Snake in Ground Zeroes suit
>Snake in MGSV camo
>Skull Face
Also the scene could be fake, like the scene in which VENOM sits on the motorcycle.
>>332690126
And you just can't accept that a man who delivered games you enjoyed slowly became shitty, it's fanboyism at it's most base form.
Bioware made good games once, look at them now.
>>332681586
Not your kind of people > Nuclear.
Both trailer wise and music wise.
>>332681586
My biggest problem with MGSV is that it was an ultimately pointless game in terms of the overall plot. Even the earth shattering tweest has almost zero impact on the rest of the series.
Also what was up with Ocelot's characterization? How did that boring asshole grow into the crazy backstabbing bastard we know and love? He was even crazy when he was young.
>theres some alternate universe where nothing was cut
>venom became a demon
>ocelot actually shot some people
>boss fights werent shit
>>332690512
I'm not saying the game is crap, I'm saying you can't blame it on one singular person. All parties involved sucked harder than an industrial wet/dry vac at delivering what they promised. Konami was so embarrassed they got out of videogames entirely. I can only hope Kojima has someone making sure he gets his shit together if he gets to make another game.
>>332690397
They were just not so subtly hinting at Snake following in Skull Face's footsteps, which Kojima tried to hammer into your thick skull in the first chapter's ending by having Snake literally follow his phantom.
Its sad how this game couldn't even beat Peace Walker, in soundtrack and story.

MG to MGS3 was written by a Kojima who gave a fuck. TPP was written by a Kojima that just wanted to take pictures of Joosten all day and hang with Keif.
>>332691091
>I'm saying you can't blame it on one singular person
Of course you can't but the fact is usually no one blames Kojima for anything. In these threads he goes by almost blameless and that shit is unacceptable. As you said many people are involved and many are to blame I'm just making sure Kojima doesn't slip past the noose.
>>332690872
I honestly prefer that the overall plot doesn't get meddled with any further this late in the series.
Ocelot only acts crazy to scare his enemies. That's what the whole "Shalashaska" thing was about.
>>332691057
>there's an alternate universe where Ocelot WAS a boss fight
>>332685445

My thoughts, my personality, how I saw right and wrong. Words. Can. Kill.
>>332688002
Instead of making a movie he made a tv show
>>332691057
>>venom became a demon
I think if the game was actually finished, the entire point to the story would be that Venom was not a demon.
He knows he is supposed to be a demon because of BB's memories, but he is still his own person and he never acts like one.
>>332684778
I'm sure that some of it was intentional, particularly how Skull Face was dispatched early on and in a way that didn't give any real closure (even Miller talks about how he doesn't feel satisfied afterward). But the cut content and false promises letting people down couldn't have been what Kojima wanted for the finished product.
Chapter 3 when
>>332684778
>>332692429
I really hope not. That shit is so fucked it's insulting like that spec ops game where the developers said "the only way to win is by not playing"
Selling your games on shit like that instead of delivering a solid title just shows how shitty the developer is and I may not like Kojima much these days but even I don't think he's THAT far gone.

Anyone got a link to the music playing during the boss fight with Volgin at the Devil's House? I thought that was excellent but have never been able to find it.

-Needed someone to cut out all the filler missions of Diamond Dogs doing busywork and make them side-ops that can be canonically done by members of the Combat Unit (and then just straight up throw most of the existing side-ops in the trash)
-Someone should've smacked Kojima on the head when they saw the script, especially regarding Skull Face. Quite honestly the stupidest fucking villain in Metal Gear history
-Better boss fights, e.g. two the few traditional bosses Quiet and Volgin are incredibly simple and garbage
-Mute body double of Big Boss is retarded. Big Boss was starting to become a real character in Peace Walker and this game ruined it
-Should've kept the Japanese MGO team
-Short cutscenes works for games that aren't Metal Gear, cutscenes are MG's bread and butter and the game feels hollow without them
-Assuming you absolutely have to stick to the dumb body double plot, there should be some more continuity with the other games. At least have Big Boss visit Snake after you build up Diamond Dogs to max size or something and detail his plans for Outer Heaven with you
-Why the fuck does Eli still take Sally if Kingdom of Flies is cut? Ree.
Litrelly the worst mainline MGS game so far.
>>332695384
Literally all of this game's problems could be solved by getting rid of the open world. So much of their time and budget probably went to populating the map with shitty repeatable side ops
>mfw the prologue, devil's house, motherbase infection, save codetalker, sally chase scene / sally boss fight and okb zero missions are the best (and only good) missions in the entire game
>mfw those missions gave me some the best experience i've ever had playing vidya
>you will never live in an alternate reality where every single mission in the game is up to par with those missions
>>332695384
But Quiet, Volgin, and Sally are the only good boss fights.

>>332696365
I do not give a flying fuck about mission 51. All these faggots crying about how it's a disgrace mission 51 was cut from the game and how the game would be a masterpiece / redeemed if Konami finally patched in mission 51. Mission 51 is pure shit and nonsensical, just like the rest of the game. The whole entire series is fucking destroyed because of Phantom Pain. The next game doesn't need to start off with or mention the events of mission 51, it needs to fucking retcon every single thing that happened in Phantom Pain.

I thought it was pretty shit after like 5 missions. But I hadn't played peacewalker so I was already caught off guard by this tactical operations garbage. I wanted more of 1-4 and it was nothing like that. I don't know why he switched from linear games to the shit peace walker does, but it's not good for metal gear

Fucking outer body experience. Got comfy for the long haul. Powered it out for like three days straight. But goddammit. It went so sour. All the hype, all the balloon snake shops, all the trailers were just shit on by the unfinished second half. Left such a bad taste in my mouth. I like to try and only remember the first few hours, but it's hard.
