I mean, it thought it was pretty good as a sequel to Peace Walker.
>>
The trailer was way better than the game.
>>
Given all the lead up, the trailers, the scripted demos, all the lies Kojima told on Twitter, the game was just a slap in the face.
>>
>>334383582
Gameplay and engine were god-tier, but the missions were very repetitive and the story was unfinished. Honestly, I blame Konami, not Kojima.
I think of Kojima had more control and more time, it would have been one of the greatest games ever made.

Every day Hideo Kojima winds up happy clockwork doll Stefanie Joosten, Kojima takes the wind-up key and puts it in happy doll Stefanie's key slot and turns it to make her move, each turn of the wind-up key makes robot doll Stefanie giggle and jitter from the grinding and working of her ticking mechanical clockwork insides that fill her perfect automaton body. Happy silly cooing comes out of her perfect plastic doll lips and her shiny glass eyes light up with joy and cheerfulness from having her perfect mechanical doll robot body wound up by Kojima's hands. Then she gets up and goes about her day to please all of Kojima's fans with her perfect happy Stefanie doll face and clockwork Joosten toy body. Each of her moves brought by the grinding and ticking of the cogs and springs and gears and pulleys and all happy clockwork insides that fill her doll body. And all of Kojima's fans fall in love with her because she's a perfect happy robot Joosten doll and that makes Kojima happy, and nothing makes clockwork doll Stefanie Joosten happier than making Hideo Kojima and his fans happy with her smiley happy plastic face and perfect doll body. That's why she's the forever happy perfect and thoroughly mechanical Stefanie giggly robot doll.

Ground Zeroes was that. TPP wasn't a meaningful sequel or a meaningful prequel, it was just a standalone game about fucking around in the desert attaching balloons to stuff, with nanoparasites.

Ground Zeroes is MGSV, faggot.

At least in PW every mission ties into the story. It felt like what you were doing was important, not just blow up some antennas so soldiers can't get porn in the desert.

>>334383582

The game was done for me after chapter 1

Chapter 2 felt really awekward and forced. First mission available was one of the first missions in chapter one. Killed all of my enthusiasm left, but loved the controls, the stealth and the action elements. The story was decent too but I miss characters/bossfights like the pain or the end. Man on fire was decent
>>
>>334385190
You know, I'd rather the side missions had some options like THAT. Everything is too fucking serious for me to care.

"BOSS, blow up the antennas to disrupt their communicationsblahblahblah."

Would've made side missions much more enjoyable if they fucked around a bit and had Miller showing some of his old self. I mean shit, the Hamburgers show that he still has some sense of humor.

Ground Zeros was an awesome prologue to a story that IMO ruins the story arch. I almost consider it non-head-canon in the same way I see MGR.

The gameplay is great and Big Boss looks awesome with a horn in his fucking face but the story goes absolutely no where and the end game is beyond fuckery.

What does Venom add to the series? He builds Outer Heaven while bigboss does something? And he dies in MG1? Whats the point? Big Boss could be one person and do all that shit. Its what we assumed before.
>>
>>334385164
He also didn't want to make the damn thing

How people can put PW, GZ or V above the rest of the franchise is mind boggling to me.
They have the weakest presentations, plot, level design, and boss fights. Sure the gameplay is solid but everything becomes dull.
>>
>>334385479
The Quiet boss fight is one of the best in the series but thats literally it. The Parasites suck and so does salalalathropist.
>>

Because they're good? Take the nostalgia goggles off.
MGS2 and 4 are shit. 1 and 3 are great. PW and V are good.
>>
>>334385487
Thats kind of a shitty comparison.
On one hand you have a handful of silly hide-and-seek missions and a crazy, out of place boss fight; and on the other hand you have a completely butchered and unfinished 2nd half of a game.

how to spot someone who hasn't played MGS1 through 4

being an asshole aside, I absolutely fucking disagree, she goes down in two easy headshots and the fight is over

it's downright fucking pathetic compared to the likes of Vamp, Ocelot, Fatman, any boss from three or one really, etc etc.

Actually the parasite snipers are good too. I love quiet but I was using the traq pistol and it made it more tense.

Just like any other open world game.

The game is pretty average, which places it as shit compared to the viral marketing campaign and trailers.

Weakest story in MGS, although the presentation was pretty good. The gameplay is very repetitive.

Engine was pretty good, looked good as well.

Enemy AI was shit, even for Metal Gear. I'm honestly surprised how bad they were; most of the time they just stand in one place and shoot, no cover whatsoever.

The open world gameplay added NOTHING to the game, just busywork; Side Ops were terrible as well, with all of them being "Fulton this shit".

Story was shit too, especially for Metal Gear.

I wouldn't say best in the series, but the Quiet boss fight had the best setup in MGS:V, and replaying it in the Extreme mission was hands down the best fight in the whole game. One shot is instant death and she's right on you the whole time. Running and ducking behind cover, throwing decoys and calling in resupply drops on her possible position to distract her long enough to get to a different spot. Just great. If the whole game could have been as tense as that, it would have been perfect.
>>
>>334386879
Fart jokes have been in every MGS since MGS1.
Ocelot was pretty much the equivalent of Drebin in MGSV.
The equivalent of the B&B Unit in MGSV doesnt exist, because MGSV didnt even have bosses.
NANOMACHINE equivalent in MGSV is PARASITES.
Meryl/Johnny is just like Venom/Quiet.
>>
It was great if, like me, you had assumed Kojima's storytelling abilities flew the coop a decade ago and just wanted to see peace walker's cool gameplay ideas given the hardware muscle and budget they deserved.

That said, the story WAS really disappointing because the trailers made it seem so damn cool.

Shame you couldn't drag knocked out characters anymore. In MGS2 during the escort missions I would knock out Emma and put her in a boston crab to pass the time.

This.

Instead he ruined the entire story just for a shitty twist, just like he did 30 other times throughout the course of 4

It's an 8/10 for me.

+Better gameplay than all past games except maybe 3
+Great graphics, great art direction, well optimized
+Fantastic soundtrack
+It has the best themes in any Metal Gear game
+Second chapter is full of emotional scenes
+Less cutscenes that aren't full of exposition
+Casette tapes instead of codec calls
+Good voice acting, especially Downes as Kaz

-Story execution is not very good, it has a lot of pacing problems and is unfinished
-Open world adds nothing to the game
-Enemy AI is worse than in GZ
-Quiet had an awful VA

I dont recall any soundtrack of the game other than the songs that aren´t not even original score for the game. but licensed music made by other people.
Sins of the father was so poorly executed in the game that i ruined the whole imapct of the song.
There were no emotional cutscenes other than Kazuhira´s moment at the trial.

Kaz and Huey were the only interesting characters that kept the game going. If it wasn´t for them i would´ve dropped it before the first half of the 1st chapter.

Yes, it's a great sequel to Peace Walker. No more bullet sponge tank boss fights, you can go around your base and talk to your soldiers, story isn't about "muh boss", you can use the vehicles you fulton instead of just using them in outer ops.
However, PW is shit compared to other MGS games and it could be kinda excused by it being on PSP. TPP took PW and built upon it instead of being more like the older games.

Skullface could've killed The Boss and the entire Cobra Unit. That's why he was following Big Boss during Snake Eater, because if Big Boss fucked up he would've finished the mission.

Honest unbiased review that most people can probably agree on:

>Gameplay and stealth felt 3000% more fluid (i.e. less clunky) than all of the previous games
>Story had a lot of potential; everything fits in well with the timeline in a pretty cool way, to be honest. But the execution was shitty and poorly paced.
>Venom not being Big Boss was a letdown and seemed unnecessary for all the trouble to make everything fit with the story
>mother base management is stupid and monotonous and detracts from the experience
>story felt weird and unfinished because it WAS unfinished. It just sort of... ends. Big letdown.
>Constant sense of cash-grab microtransactions everywhere
>some of the gameplay elements like the air strikes and fulton extractions are silly kojima cheese that veteran players are used to but new players wouldn't expect, in a bad way. Granted, it isn't as goofy as the Gekko from MGS4
>The fact that there are so many actual infiltrations compared to the other games is great. Instead of a few cool base infiltrations, you get bombarded with stealth missions, even though they are mostly just "extract the prisoner", etc.

The game very easily could have been. Everything that was shown in the trailers was building up to be GOAT. Kojima could've crafted a balling story, he already did with the fucking trailers. Yes, this game very easily could've EXCEEDED my expectations, and Kojima would have known how to because he purposefully edited the trailers in a way to tell an interesting story. So Kojima was fully aware of how the story of this game could've gone, but decided to do this retarded Reddit-tier parasite storyline instead. And that Medic Snake. Jesus.

No. The gameplay and the missions were fine, game is fun to play. Especially if you go for all the mission goals and going for an S-rank(except for the "listen to all the conversations" goals, fuck those they don't even work half the time). On the other hand:

>Skullface's role
>John's role
>Venom's lack of dialogue, making the switch from Hayter unnecessary
>The story's overall insignificance to the series
>removed and unfinished content
>lack of continued support
>cheating online with no anti-cheats
>repeating events
>repeating missions

The big one for me is how most of the missions have no significance to the story of the game. Compare it to Peace Walker. Every single mission is a small piece of the story. You're going to rescue a new team member, infiltrating a base, tracking down an enemy, etc. In Phantom Pain most of the missions are you doing mercenary work. It only connects to the story in minor ways if you delve into the dialogue. They could have done WAY better with that.

>people ACTUALLY hate this game

this is probably one of the more fun games I've played this gen. I don't get tired of trying to stealth my way through a base or go loud when I fuck up

Everything is constant meticulous planning and scouting, which a lot of games don't really do anymore

You are not punished if you fuck up, but expect heavier resistance from the enemy, which is pretty awesome cuz it adapts to your playstyle

the story is pretty dope and I don't have to sit and twiddle my thumbs for five hours when I just ;listen to the story on cassette tapes while playing

And you get to play as Venom Snake, probably the most alpha Snake who just killed people and had no personal problems. He just fucked and killed and had a based dog and horse. He also ran a zoo

MGSV is a great game

It wasn't necessarily bad, it was just really disappointing if you were following the game since release and through all of the trailers. I can still watch this and get chills, but the game that was delivered to us fell incredibly short.

Grinding is only bad if the mechanics used for it are bad. V has really well done shootan mechanics so the grinding just comes down to more excuse to play a good shooter, which is good. Everything else about the story pacing comes down to the fact that having highly scripted set pieces like the hospital would hurt replayability and would stick out in a game that's meant to be replayed. I'll admit that the story was a bit limp, but it sets the stage perfectly for what amounts to the end game.

And if it feels repetitive change up your loadout now and again

More snatcher missions where in the end you Fulton the main characters from snatcher(forgotten the names) with a d walker with the paint scheme of MK-II.

More missions like the heli assault from GZ. Better base layout with more indoor areas.

The repeated missions are neat in how they change up the core gameplay, and they're designed to be replayable given the large amount of freedom you have in tackling them
