There's more to life than videogames
>>24296848
Yea but he specifically said the phantom pain.
MGSV was terrible. Fallout 4 is even worse. We all know Battlefront is going to suck. FIFA/Madden/2k are the same games they have been for years and years.
Video games are a dying art form.
it's like 3 different missions over and over again
i've only played mgs 4 and phantom pain, i tried watching some storyline youtube videos but i just don't understand what the fuck is going on in the story and i've given up trying to fully understand it.
i actually enjoy all the preparation with recon and camping out and trying to figure out how to stealth your way through areas, but t's just the same handful of missions over and over and over.
the d-walker is one of the most ridiculous things i have ever seen in a game. i don't know what i'm supposed to do with it....
>tfw a video game comes out that could have been amazing on a deep powerful level, but instead you can tell the devs/designer had to gut massive amounts of intended content from the game at the behest of the publisher or due to other time/funding constraints
>tfw everyone else only sees "what's there," the few mechanics that are decently implemented, or maybe even that one big chunk of the game that did happen to get finished to the standard of quality that the rest of the game (and all the parts that have vanished entirely) should have been
>tfw you see what isn't there
>tfw you see 1 great chapter, 3 decent chapters, and 2 meh chapters of a book that would have been world-changing if it had been finished
>tfw you see that it was going to be 50 meaty, even-in-quality chapters of the same quality as the great chapter
>tfw you commune with the original concept through the psychic imprint left on the game's tattered remains by its designers, and see what could have been
>tfw you see the dream that died
>tfw no one else understands
why did it have to be episodic ?
its disjointed where as the old mgs games were at least one single mission besides MGS2 and MGS4 being like 5 chapters instead of 50-100 shitty missions

Heh.
I started the series with Metal Gear Solid in 1998. You should play from the beginning if you want to know the storyline.
But even with playing all of them, the story becomes a convoluted mess of retcons and bringing back characters for no reason.
This is why I don't kill myself.

No man, virtual reality is on the way. We're on the cusp of the second golden age of gaming
Witcher has been VERY good so theres that
>>24297213
This. Give me a VR mmo and I'll never take it off
Games have been shit since the 7th gen, no surprise.
It's all normalfag shit now.
how is the online in PP?
Wells there's always XCOM 2 and Cyberpunk 2077 and SFV and Mount an Blade II
>>24297155
if i ever get time i may play them, idk. i'm not really big on playing older games.
it seems like most of the mgs games up until snake eater are very outdated in their gameplay

>tfw it was literally his master plan to make fans feel like they're missing something, i.e. a phantom pain
>tfw his last act was to transcend time and space
BRAVO KOJIMA
>>24297089
Well, what was it supposed to have been like?
>>24296795
they ruined it hiding content behind nuclear disarmament. people are fed up with FOBs and having nothing to do, so disarmament won't be achieved.
i am upset too OP, it could've been so fucking good
Can someone tell me why MGSV is such shit and that as soon as the game was released the hyped died out?
>>24297663
my biggest gripe was that the missions were lame and boring
>go here rescue some guy
>takes me out of the game by showing me a mission complete screen for every single fucking mission including side missions
I lost complete interest after 7-8hrs of play time and just shelved it
and yeah I've played MGS's 1-4 and loved every one of em cept this one
>>24297758
oh and open world is boring
takes like 5-8 minutes to get somewhere on the map in a boring environment yawns
>>24297663
The cancer started with the PSP game that Kojima loves so much Peace Walker. That game was designed in episodic format because the idea was you would play on the go and you would need constant breaks even though any MGS game lets you save anywhere at all times and most PSP owners are autists who will binge play a game at home. This idea that handheld owners play mostly on the go is retarded. Anyway,, when he made the Phantom Pain he decided to keep that episodic structure that annoyed everyone. It wasn't necessary on a home console game. Also the story was advertised as some big deal and it isn't and I think that is Kojima's greatest sin because he willingly lied to us. I don't fully blame him because he did get a rep of having preachy long winded cut scenes and he now dramatically went the other way barely having any. I have been a life long MGS fan beating every game in like 2 to 3 days. I have own Phantom Pain since day 1 I think maybe I made it half way through because the urge to play and do the same mission over and over just isn't there. This is coming from a guy who went through the MGS game boy color game like 5 times.
>>24297758
Oh God the worst is the start credits when it says starring skull face and the parasite unit. WTF were they thinking.
>>24297663
the missions are basically all the same thing
go to area, recon it and get enemies on your map, stealth your way into the area, extract/kill whoever they sent you to extract/kill
then the mission ends and then you have to spend 20 minutes micro managing your home base, staff, weapons development, fucking infections on home base (like wtf?)... etc
the game play itself is fine and fluid, trying to go full stealth in areas can be fun and quite challenging. the combat when you go full assault mode is a bit clunky but nothing too serious. you can do a lot of shit in the game so sometimes it's like information overload with how many options you have.
but with that said, it's just mostly the missions are the same shit over and over again. kind of like assassins creed 1 levels of repetition.

>>24297155
In terms of story I think people should just play MGS1-4 and leave it at that
>>24297837
i have no clue what the fuck they were thinking with that... that is seriously the dumbest thing i have ever seen in a game
what the fuck were they going for with these "episodes" and all these credits where they list the fucking boss you'll be fighting before you fight them?
..... i dont get it
>>24297846
>>24297846
>>24297840
theres just so much bullshit that takes me out of the gameplay of the game
its bullshit base managment 2015 base niggers 2014
We were naive. We though MGS V was going to save gaming. Instead.....it reinforced the idea that gaming is dead. I have hope for KH 3 and FF 15 but my hope for FF 15 is dwindling because I have the demo and they normiefied FF making it like GTA Nip edition.
I'm a major video game pleb. I'm enjoying the phantom pain.
>>24297900
I think Kojima is full of himself and trying to force his love of film and TV into this shit. That's my only guess.
>>24297906
>its bullshit base managment 2015 base niggers 2014
yep. if that entire micro managing section of the game was removed i would like it so much more. stuff like weapons unlocks/developing new weapons is totally fine and i can deal with that, but spending hundreds of thousands on building the entire fucking base section and managing staff and morale and all this fucking shit is so unbelievably annoying and such a waste of time.
if they spent half as much time developing the missions rather than adding in all this managing bullshit the game would be at least 5x better
>>24297981
I haven't even got to FOB yet so is it true once you trigger it if you idle the game for a week or two when you come back everything will be gone resource and money wise?
>playing New Vegas for the first time ever
>get spooked in vidya real fucking easily
I'm trying to push through but this is almost pathetic. Already, geckos have spiked my adrenaline and those are the first fucking main quest enemies you encounter. I'm so completely FUCKED once I get to anything in a closed-area or even acts or looks scary.
>>24298005
idk, i literally just got to the FOB part 2 hours ago and i don't even know what the fuck to do with it and im not interested in playing multiplayer
>>24297981
what the fuck happened to the story ?
I gave up playing the game after 10 hrs in and just watch the cutscenes on youtube
you are big boss twist bullshit oh man
wtf kojims
>>24298086
i didn't beat it yet, i'm like halfway through the missions so far and about 30% completed in total
i honestly don't know what the fuck is going on in the story at this point, all i know is i have to keep extracting nigger children soldiers for some reason...
>tfw pic related
>mfw playing the game
I hated the idea that this was open world because open world games are all repetitive with shit boss battles and sure enough most of the MGS V boss battles are complete uninspired shit. That's the problem when you can't script a game when it's open Far Cry has this same problem too.
>>24298127
forgot:
once you get quiet's tranq sniper rifle it's basically like turning on god mode
i just played a section where she took out the entire area and pinned them down while i ran around trying to find who i needed to extract

Have any of you guys got the happy birthday cutscene on your birthday?

>tfw they couldn't sing the proper happy birthday song because at the time it was in the middle of a trademark battle and is now in public domain
>>24298594
I didn't, but hey man, Happy Birthday
>>24296795
>tfw Fallout 4 Defense Force is even stronger and more prevalent than Phantom Pain's
Holy shit the salt is incredible
Who here putting off suicide until Maplestory 2 comes out????
>>24298872
i dont know how anyone could defend a game made by bethesda at this point
at least the gameplay itself in mgs v isn't clunky shit like every bethesda game is
>>24298594
>Miller wishes you happy birthday in a nice, meaningful tone
>won't let you smoke because as a bro he's worried about your health
>half naked enabler sniper whore says fuck it to your health YOLO smoke up we are young forever gets you a truck load of cancer sticks
My God it's like real life.
>>24296795
I thought MGSV:TPP was great, but then I normally hate MGS games and Kojima's hackneyed bullshit. I still hated it in this game, but I had so much fund just roaming around doing side missions and taking down outposts with Quiet. I haven't played a mainstream game this much since DX:HR.
>>24298979
kojima knows what good gameplay is
but, the man cannot write a concise story at all.
>>24299094
Even MGS 2, the one /v/ jizzes over was shit.
>Le Solidus is a hero meme
>even though he trained child soldiers
>including Raiden
>killed Raiden's family
>mocked him about it and did this at the end when he was close to beating the Patriots but decided to jeopardize the whole mission by being a prick and failing
I feel like Kojima fucked him up completely. He needed to wind back the cartoon villain shit if he wanted me to sympathize with him. He just seemed like another power hungry shit head.

The problem with gaming is it costs too much to make a game these days so there are less risks and new IPs now. They need to reel back costs somehow. Also Call of Duty needs to die.
>>24297175
>wiiu
ok I'm out of existence bye
>>24299389
name 10 games that utilize the fox engine and were profitable since like 2008. oh you can't? gg faggot.
MGSV isn't my favorite game in the series but it's grown on me
That said I'm an MGS fanboy so take my opinion with a grain of salt
>>24299682
no lol make me lol
the game is bretty good,not the best in the series,but bretty good.
stop being a fag all of you.
