Jokes and memes aside, are you still mad, /v/, about how the game turned out? Does it still hurt? Or do you perhaps think there was nothing wrong with it? I want to hear your conclusions now that it's been almost a year.
>>344060617
I thought it was pretty fantastic.Then again, this is my first Metal Gear and I didn't watch any of the trailers or demos.

I said open world was a mistake, and so it was. Still, I'm not mad, PP was still fun as fuck, even if it could've been much better.
>>344060617
When I first beat it at the time I thought "sure the story was garbage and the ending was weird/rushed/unfinished/something and it didn't live up to my expectations or come even close, but at least the gameplay systems were alright" but I've reflected on things a bit, and I really don't think the gameplay systems were alright. Bad game overall.

Yes. There's plenty of flaws with the game and I hate the smug apologists that dismiss any criticism as "/v/ hating everything". I could probably make an hour long video complaining just about the gameplay because I don't give two shits about stories in games, though even that was lacking.

I really liked the gameplay.
I've had a huge enjoyment-boner from the gameplay of every main MGS, enough to play them through several times, except 4.
The problem is, I can't do that with MGSV because of the way save files work.
It means I either lose all my heard-earned FOB development starting again, or I just replay missions and don't have any challenge other than choosing to bring shit items, which isn't the same as not having good ones yet.
Plus if I play on my existing file, my FOB will have all my resources on it and I won't be allowed to use them. Last time I played the game I was a million GMP in the red with 2 million on the FOB.
>twice as much money as I had inexplicably tied up on the FOBs.
>mfw
I'm still glad that after so many years of CQC, we can finally do more than one kind of throw.
>>344060617
The gameplay is excellent and snake controls better than ever, the stealth aspects are almost fucking perfect, and the amount of options you get to tackle an objective is absolutely mind-boggling.
That said, the story is beyond shit and it doesn't even begin to answer questions to bridge Big Boss and Solid Snake's stories together. Miller is a cripple who dies eventually, there's no resolution, characters act strangely different than their previous selves.
On top of that, the open world clearly didn't mesh with the level design, making travel bothersome and missions feel repetitive at times.
Ground Zeroes was a perfect example of a medium-ish but focused map having tons of gameplay options that could be repeated several times over, but PP seemed to have ignored it completely.

Personally I think Kojima buying into the 'Open World' meme is what killed it. It explains all the problems the gameplay had, and obviously the extra manhours and testing it must have took probably resulted in Konami and Kojima's relationship souring as the game took longer and longer which lead to the story cuts. Also hiring Sutherland to mocap/voice a protagonist who rarely fucking talks like he's from Drive must have ate up the budget even more for no real gain.
Ground Zeroes showed that MGSV's gameplay really excelled with tightly designed, but spacious, maps. A more consistently designed game that wasn't open world could have been even better.
Overall, I think I've become more favorable to the game. If you asked me right after I finished act 2 I would have said it was the 'blunder of the century' but now I think it's pretty okay.

I got into the series when I first saw the trailer for it. Knowing jack shit about the series, I decided to start chronologically with Snake Eater, realized I genuinely enjoyed it and move on from there. Finished it about a week ago.
It's gonna take a long while before I can work up the will to play any more of the series.
>>344060617
The game felt like a slap in the face. Completely bait and switch from all those trailers, the wasted potential of the gameplay and all the cut content have left me more bitter and pessimistic about games in general.
>>344060617
I'd say that it was the worst game of 2015, based on the trainwreak of a story and general disappointment alone.
One of the best designed videogames ever made, but not as fun as 4.
4 is the best metal gear in terms of fun and gameplay. Anyone thinks otherwise is just an egm parroting faggot

Games where you have to make your own fun are a double-edged sword. On one hand you can get things like Shadow of Mordor, which basically have a huge system with loose rules designed around fun, and MGSV, which is a huge system with loose rules designed around fun that is simply not fun because you have to put work into having fun- it's way too easy to just BLAST through the game, and while the main missions are fun, the sideops are the most mind numbing shit ever.
I don't get it. Why are the sideops so anti-fun?

I think the worst part of MGSV is that the game still isn't bad at the end of the day. You can't point at it and say someone definitively fucked up and the game was trash for it. You can't say that's it's like MGS4 where it had glaring faults in and of itself to make it bad instead of just how people looked at it.
The game was still fun. I put my 100+ hours into it and I might even replay from the beginning again. I wish more people were playing MGO3 since that was fun. However, it still isn't what was promised. The missing link and Big Boss becoming a demon was left to the background. It wasn't the end all greatest game for Metal Gear fans. It was the Metal Gear game for everyone. Still worth playing, but not up to the prestige of what it was being made out to be.
It's a game that's good because it technically is, not because people loved it.
>>344051775

>>344060617
I was disappointed but I was never mad. It was unfinished, simple as that.
>>344060617
Yup, still mad. I don't think I will ever get over the fact that MGSV was released unfinished and there is absolute 0% chance the remaining part of the game will be developed. Fuck this gay earth.

>pequod will nevel come in hot in your LZ
why bother living?
I just got the game. This will be my first metal gear game. Will i enjoy it more or less never having played any of the metal gear series? Will i enjoy it more or less now that threads are rare and i cant go back in the archive?
>>344060617
still dissapointed, the gameplay is really nice and all the cardboard box having that many options to use was really amazing), but there's not much variety in maps to try it on, this game needed at least more inside facilities, maybe underground bases that are conected making it as a big as the maps, kinda like megaman legend's undreground caves.
also the mission variety is also not great, a bit of more wacky stuff like the pooyan or monster hunter missions from pw could have been better, the fact that psycho mantis was in the game and it never did anything as mindfuckery as his fight in MGS1 (or even more crazy, since it's a child and they could have go with the "can't control his powers" cliche, but they didn't) was also saddening.
also, since it's practically konami's last game, i wanted to see some little easter eggs of older konami games, like probably developing goemon's pipe or belmont's whip, maybe a little gun resembling the vic viper, also i kinda wanted to see a game about solid snake's phylantropy days with this style, but not as ambitious and empty as TPP, but i know that will never happenif i didn't spoiled myself two days before the game releases i would have killed myselfbut this is me falling for the hype way too much
i could still get something possitive out of this, and that is i will never ever fall into the hype again, at most i will be hopeful that a game will be good

fuck off you nigger
So the NES games fall sort of in the middle of the series right? Like after all the big boss stuff but before solid snake stuff. Do I need to play those to understand?
>>344080260
no but playing mg2ss has a lot of good story
>>344080260
NES games aren't canon lad
>>344080792
shit for real?
>>344067185
>>344071831
Here's to (You), Nicola and Bart.
>>344080260
The NES entries actually aren't canon, because of changes in 1 and Snake's Revenge not existing in the series. The MSX games are canon, and you might enjoy playing them, but other than introducing a lot of series elements and establishing twists that would be echoed later, you don't miss out on story beats you can't learn in detail from the Solid series.
It's not like SHOOT GUNNER has a big tragic backstory revealed when you kill him.
>>344080260
NES games are not canon.
MSX games are, included in MGS3HD and Subsistance.
They take place after MGSTPP, but before MGS1.
They do have minor story elements, but I don't think they are necessary.
If you want a basic rundown.Big Boss is super soldier, creates and army, threatens the world with a new weapon called Metal Gear. Rookie Solid Snake is sent in, and defeats him. BB survives and does it again, SS sent in again and defeats him. During the second time SS ends up fighting his best friend, Grey Fox/Frank Yaeger, and he dies. SS then retires to Alaska after saving the world twice from nuclear Armageddon from Metal Gear.

>>344081096
>>344081292
whats msx?
I really like this game, finished it recently and now going for that 100% (currently 79)
I think outside of obvious cut content only problem is the fact that trailers hyped this to be a totally diffrent game, like from all the nuclear shit you'd think this will be some Spec Ops the Line game, but I honestly think that when judged on it's own merith it's an amazing game
>>344082484
It was an old home computer that Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 were on. Both these games were later released with copies of MGS3 Subsistence and the HD remake
>>344082484
The Microsoft MSX was a computer architecture designed to become an industry standard. It never did, for a variety of reasons, but in Japan, it was popular personal computer series through the 80s.
>>344060617
i thought it totally justified konami firing kojima and for me it will always be one of the most disappointing games of all time after how much hype kojima had over it. Too bad he had to put 95% of all the cutscenes from the game in it and leave nothing left but sadness and wolbachia
>>344082256
Eh, I think it was Pretty good, and absolutely
>F
>>344083186
Thank you. I meant to put it in that reply but forgot and just realized it probably makes me look like an asshole.
>>344060617
I think it's a solid 5-6 out of 10 but 1, 2 and 3 being nearly perfect each casts a huge shadow on V. It's not the worst game ever or even of that year, Christ people are stupid. The gameplay is some of the best of the series, the invading other bases idea is neat, the story (what little there is) missions are pretty good, particularly the Med Bay and exile scenes. The biggest problems are that
1. It's one of the least replayable games ever. When you've beaten it there's nothing really left but going for S ranks and if that doesn't appeal to you, you're out of luck
2. There's about 10 hours of story stretched across 30-60 hours of gameplay. That's a serious blow to a story heavy franchise and it's sad to see that the "Missing link" between Big Boss and Solid Snake was largely inconsequential in the scheme of things
3. It's unfinished. Very unfinished. Mother Base has basically nothing but showers, gun ranges and Quiet taking a shower. No raising soldiers, not nearly enough unique/neat events, few customization items. The maps are largely empty except for many copypasted outposts and a few decently designed areas but nothing close to Camp Omega. The missions feel like they were supposed to be fairly sequential but filler missions are wedged between anything interested and are rarely anything more than "Rescue hostage leave" or "Blow things up then leave". Not to mention the Eli shit
There's a lot to hate but don't pretend this is the worst game ever. It's just the Dark Souls 2 of the family: a frumpy 6/10 who's overshadowed by her bombshell 10/10 sisters

Ruined video games for me, i can rarely play anything anymore for more than 2 hours now. It looked really promising back then with the trailer direction and extremely good song choice along with the "supposed" story that they were telling. Sure it was something i wished that would actually happen but come on, who the fuck would ever think that the plot of TPP and having VS=medic be a good idea in the overall saga? Not to mention semi-retcons of previous games and complicating shit instead of simplifying it. They could've labeled it a non-canon installment and it would've been a 8/10 standalone game.
>>344086627
That cutscene pissed me off. Such a fucking waste of time, and it left me on the wrong fucking platform. Fuck you Quiet, it rains all the god damn time, it's not an excuse to act like a slutty five year old in a paddling pool.
