Fan service.

Series go to shit when they start pandering to fan expectations instead of just doing something interesting.

MGS4 was also loaded with fan service as well.

Just bad fanwank. Not any different than Oracle's dad being in Peace Walker or nearly everything in MGS4. With MGS3 onward the series started to get insufferably incestuous.

MGS4-MGSV have a lot of the same problems that the Star Wars prequels do, though. It's not an entirely inaccurate comparison.

Not really. There are some interesting thematic ideas at play, but most of the story is overshadowed by being a big bombastic soap opera of the worst kind.

But dull "poetry" is exactly why Eli is in the game. That guy's post was completely right. It was a move right out of The Phantom Menace playbook.

Come on anon, wasn't trying to be harmful. You shouldn't take everything on /v/ too serious, i think thats what most people never got and never will get.

Things can get out of hand pretty quick around here.

People seem to forget that Kojima tried the whole concept of "le epic soldier is u all allong" shit in MGS2, but people didn't grasp that so easy if they are not being spoonfed like the "twist" in MGSV was.

Who wouldn't find that out in the first half hour?
>>
>>338284653
>Fan service.
MGSV was anything but that
>>
>>338287750
Kojima stylistically emphasizes melodrama, but they were more plot-driven and theme-driven. What makes MGS4 onward so soapy is the increased contrivances that only serve to stir up inter-character drama. Ocelot being Big Boss's buddy and the son of his mentor who is doing everything for the glory of Big Boss, Big Boss being fucking alive to have conversation with Snake for "closure", Otacon and Naomi fucking, Big Boss and Otacon's parents working together, everything about "The Boss's Will," and so on. The series became overwhelmingly self-obsessed. The shift is clear to anyone even slightly observant.

>>338288289
But Eli is
Sully is (for Pacific Rim Fans, too)
Quiet is for the Waifufaggots
Ocelot and Kaz for the Hasubandogentleman
Venom for the self inserts
>>
>>338287951
Two of those are mine, yeah. So what? My point stands.
