Because a lot of us have actually been playing since MGS1, and for a lot of people this is their first Metal Gear, so they have no idea who the characters are, what they're like, what the story has been, the evolution of the games, ect.

It's getting high praise from people who don't know what makes a metal gear game a metal gear game.

I'm torn about it.

I've been in since MGS1, and TPP is a game that I'm conflicted about. I haven't had a game leave me this simultaneously excited and disappointed before.

8/10 is accurate, but now, especially after the 'honeymoon' period of the first 10 hours or so, it feels often more like a 6 or a 5.

If by "source material" you include 4 and Peace Walker, then I'm standing by my statement. Zero's character was fucked in MGS4, and Huey's character was fucked in PW, way before TPP had a chance. If anything, Zero's last tapes in V do a better job of bridging the HURR DURR THE MGS3 SUPPORT STAFF DID IT gap than the entirety of BB's speech to Solid Snake.

Big Boss didn't get rebooted as a character, he still has all that shit. Venom doesn't.

>The guard mechanics that made people scream TECHNOLOGY were all gone. They're dumb as shit.
Subjective as fuck, and I honestly disagree completely, they feel pretty much as they should be.

>A series that built itself on complex base sneaking no longer has anything complex to sneak, it was tents for most of it
Not as complex as you seem to believe. It was really mostly dodging vision cones with a few other ways for enemies to detect you, like noisy floors and footsteps.
The FOB invasions, Mfinda Oilfield and OKB Zero felt just like what I'd expect from MGS.

>the change to open world gimped the game both visually, and gameplay wise as nothing was arranged with any real care.
Visually? The game is stunning.The wide empty spaces are certainly a problem, but this has nothing to do with visuals. Just inefficient map design.

>Enemies in MGS2 and 3 would destroy you because of an excellent collaboration between level designers and AI technicians, nothing note worthy happened in MGSV
OKB Zero, Yakho Oboo, Mfinda Oilfield and Da Ghwandai Khar were pretty tricky to inflitrate on the first attempts. Certainly much harder to infiltrate than anything in MGS3 with the exception of maybe the jungle right before The Boss.

I agree with these points, except maybe about Huey, which I felt made enough sense and was interesting as a twist to me. It's pretty consensual that the game's major flaw is the story.

>no licensed weapons, showing just how little they cared about attention to detail. Something even MGS4 managed to do.
Who gives a shit about licensed weapons? This is seriously grasping for straws. And to believe they had no attention to detail because they didn't feel like shelling out for some names is such a huge logic leap that I cannot comprehend it.

DmC fucked the gameplay completely, toned every single thing down, including the plot, and deliberately poked fun at previous entries.
MGSV if anything gave a lot of attention to the gameplay, maybe even too much, and never attempted to poke fun at the estabilished series.
It was just a bit of a letdown because Kojima hyped it up as the definitive conclusion and ode to the series, and the plot and cut development time didn't really allow that to be the case.

MGSV was victim of a bad publisher and bad resource and time management, not deliberate bad choices with little to nothing to do with an estabilished series.

If you had ever been in an MGS thread before, fuck loads of people. The backlash to Ocelot not using his revolvers was massive.

Nah, you're just trying to justify shit because it's MGSV. Zero idolized The Boss as much as BB did and then moved that idolization to BB to the point where he cloned him multiple times. What V did is let him do that twisted shit then said "oh but AI's did the rest, he had good feelings all of the time!"

Your point is retarded. Venom wasn't meant to fool people through his personality, just his appearance. Otherwise why would they feel the need to hypnotize themselves into believing that Venom was BB?

And if you didn't try to infiltrate the FOBs, you're full of shit and aren't judging the game's full content. There's even offline attempts if you're such an ass.

MGSV has its flaws, but it was better than 90% of anything that came out in past couple of years, and I'd bet my left nut that it would be even better if Konami wasn't pants-on-head retarded when it comes to development. A solid 8/10 and the third best MGS game after MGS1 and 3.

He did fool everyone, there was no point to him having the same personality, he sold the character of a broken man. The only people who might get suspicious were either hypnotized or also broken in comparison to their earlier personalities.

>Defending FOB content when it's still shat on by everyone but dudbros

The whole thing is a callback to Big Shell. People hate on it for no reason.

Again, you're presenting two different things and pretending they're one and the same.
The map design was flawed, the art direction was not. Afghanistan looked like Afghanistan should, and so did Africa. And the engine and graphics are fucking top tier, only Witcher 3 can claim to look better right now.

>I sneaked OKGB Zero first time, fucking first time. The ultimate base of the big bad and It offered no hindrance. Outer Haven was far harder and actually made you work for it.

Big Boss had head trauma, which opened up the possibility that he may act different than normal. The real Big Boss didn't have that problem, but Kaz and Ocelot (after hypnosis) didn't know that. They thought Venom was Boss, and considering what he had gone through (not to mention the giant piece of shrapnel lodged in his skull) they had an explanation for any differences in behavior. YOU'RE the one who apparently didn't pay attention to the tapes, or the entire game for that matter, since you're having trouble understanding something so basic.

>Movement improved but the sneaking didn't really undergo anything that any other series didn't do. Still no real sound/light mechanics either.
Movement is inherently connected to how the sneaking plays. How are there no sound/light mechanics? Sound can fuck you up if you wear anything but sneaking suits, and it plays in a bunch of ways through misleading enemies.
And if I can kill lights to use the shadows to my advantage and enemies pull flashlights when they need to, how are there no light mechanics?

DMC3 was outdone in every single way except for the backtracking in 4.

>>333466360
Nah, DMC always had trouble finding interesting things for the player to do while they're not in combat.
4 is definitely the worst in this regard.

Dante played so differently from Nero that it wasn't an issue. Meanwhile 3 was the same shit the entire way through the poorly designed areas and the waves bland enemies. The game's only saving grace was the bosses and only a handful of them were actually good. 1 and 4 are both much better games.

You know how I can tell you're talking bullshit? Your defence of DMC1. It should always be given maximum respect but it is, understandably, completley archaic and near painful to play compared to later entries so to sit there and say DMC1 is better than 3 is nothing short of maximum over-bait plain and simple.
>>
>>333460626
Did you play the first few missions

If yes, you've played the entire game.

The story is banal, nothing gets accomplished; and for a finale where men were to become demons, we play as the most canonically good character in all of the MGS franchise. Not even Solid Snake was as Lawful Good as Venom. Snake gave zero fucks about gunning down his own comrades from Foxhound.

It's under budget, the story isn't finished, and 'what could have been' promises doesn't equal a game. What we got is a mediocre sandbox shooter with a great upgrade system, but why would I spend my time playing that? I have Just Cause 3 already, and I can fly in that game.

DMC1 has the best environments in the series, the best pacing, the best Dante, and the best enemies (who actually fight back, unlike the other games). The combat is definitely more basic and less refined but overall it's the best game in the series. The greatest combat system in the world means nothing when enemies don't put up a fight and the rest of the game is a bore. DMC3 had a few fantastic bosses but they made up like 10% of the game at best, and the rest was mediocre filler.

I agree completely. Art direction, it's Dante, it's enemies, all better but the complete lack of refinement and terrible play style mixed in with fucking underwater sections simply does not put it above 3.
>>
>>333460626
it's good. but chapter 2 is pathetic and lazy. in fact it nearly ruins the whole experience, because i felt obligated to play the whole way through the game and chapter 2 just ruins it.

Believe it or not we played the games before Ground Zero.

It was babbys first MGS for 99% of the people, the millenials are slowly getting into gaming as they grow into their teen years, ofc they are going to like it and praise it.

>Boss never crosses any lines or becomes the evil Boss from MG1. Boss was an asshole by the end of PW
I could go on, but these are the big ones. I'm no critic of the gameplay though, it's definitely a lot of fun to play, but that story was trash.

Sounds like MGS4
>only 2 areas
Almost the same as MGS4, the first two chapters are the only ones that showcased the core mechanics since chapter 3 is just following one dude, chapter 4 has no human enemies, and chapter 5 is literally just one opening area that you can walk through in 2 minutes.
>no memorable boss battles. Skulls were just beefed up enemy soldiers. Not even the metal gear battle was anything special.
Sounds like 4 again where the only good boss was Laughing Octopus. Facing the Skull snipers head-on is probably better than most of the fights in 4.
>Those fucking cassette tapes, man.
As opposed to 4 that has little to no interesting codecs and unlike V you had to break away from gameplay to listen to them.

I'm OK with you hating V, but don't pretend it's the first offender in the series. Now if you were complaining about MGO3 compared to MGO2 then I'd be right there with you tearing MGSV a new asshole

It plays perfectly fine. It's not as fleshed out as 3 was but when everything else is so much better it hardly matters. 3 had a fantastic combat system with a bad game built around it. DMC1 had a solid combat system with a great game built around it.

>>333468780
>MGSVfags or RE6 apologists.
MGSV is an incomplete game with some really great core gameplay and a horse shit story in a franchise where the story had gone to horse shit over half a decade prior. RE6 is a directionless game with some really great core gameplay at the expense of distancing itself from its predecessors.

I don't really see anyone claiming either game is a 10/10 aside from obvious troll posts and the idiots who take the bait.
>>
It just didn't live up to the hype. Open World mechanics weren't necessary in MGS. The ending was such shit, and the whole game lacked the little details and humor that the series established. I'm not being contrarian or a raging fanboy, I am just genuinely disappointed in the last entry of my favorite series ever.
>>
>>333468556
Skull Face is meant to be a pathetic villain. How Snake and Miller deal with him is whats important.
>Miller is a sociopath, out of character
He's been through some shit. Seems realistic to me.
>Huey is an even bigger sociopath
It's probably because everyone thinks he's a traitor when in actuality he dindu nuffin.
>>
>>333468586
Show me in my post where I mentioned anything about V being worse than MGS4.
>>
>>333460626
half the game is filler
the story is almost non-existent and the twist was dumb
the open world was pointless and wasted your time
the side missions were boring because they often recycled areas you'd already been to

The presentation is really great and the core gameplay mechanics work, but that shouldn't be enough to get critical acclaim when the game itself is so flawed.
>>
>>333469342
His motives are confusing and contrived. He also lets a blind injun Frankenstein get the better of him. He's set up by the trailers and GZ to be the central villain and yet he hardly shows up, you're never really fighting him (XOF almost never shows up after the hospital) and he even sit you down in an anticlimactic, purely expository car ride where he spells out the fucking plot to you because Kojima couldn't figure out how to shoehorn plot into the filler missions.

So let me get this straight, you only played 4 and V?

I tried once and had too many problems, and just the other day I asked about it and someone said it's a hard game to emulate with lots of problems.

But I am a stupidhead, so maybe I am not doing it right, if you know where to get the game and the whole BIOS shit you supposedly need to run it, I'd love to try it.

>>333471974

Nigga the internet is filled with emulation pages.

Also, MGS3 isn't that hard to emulate. If I played it on a Phenom II, it can be played on anything, except maybe shitty notebooks or cheap ass PCs

EDIT: I also emulated it like 4 years ago, so there gotta be better builds at this point

>>333471146
I didn't say some MGS fans wouldn't like it, although many don't

Its just at its core this game was simply not made for the core fans of the series, its more in line with some Ubisoft production with Kojima's name slapped all over it

1 > 3 > 5 > 2=4

honestly, i could put v higher, but it's a tough thing to do

1 i like most because it was the one i played, but the reason i like 3 so much is because it had a good story, and i really loved the camo aspect, i loved being able to change on the fly and be a sneaky fuck

however... being older, and just more 'logical' in general, i realize how unrealistic and retarded the whole being able to change on the fly thing is, it's actually pretty stupid

however, while i found v's gameplay to be spectacular in so many ways, and i loved the flow and management of crap, the story was a little rocky, so i guess in the end i think of 3 being better than 5 because i honestly remember more of it even now

i remember tons and tons from 1, i remember tons from 3 and 5, but i barely remember anything from 4, and outside of the first part with snake i don't remember much from 2 either because i disliked raiden

i remember 4 having fun multiplayer with friends and some fun sneaking mechanics, but it was all kind of unfufilling

i'd probably play 5 again at some point just because of the replayability of it, but 1 will always be my favourite, the only way i could have 5 beat 3 for 2nd place is if i played through both again and ruined nostalgea by remembering how retarded it was that snake had like 50 outfits hidden up his ass
