What's the big deal with this franchise? I played MGS3 on PS2 and it was a cool game I guess. MGS5 has been sitting in my steam library for like 7 years as a gift and i've never played it lol.

That just means you have better taste than 99% of Any Forums

It's a frustrating game because in some ways it's so good and in others, so disappointing. But despite its flaws I have hundreds of hours in it. I think what hurts about it is that it seems like with only a little more focus and effort, it could have been a truly amazing game, instead of one that's just pretty fun. The AI was just a little too dumb/predictable imo, what really kills replay eventually is the way that the AI never notices all their comrades disappearing one by one. A radio check-in system like in MGS2 would have made a huge difference

And given that TPP is open world, it would have been the perfect time to re-use the survival mechanics from 3, requiring you to eat and manage medical supplies and stamina, instead of regenerating health and being able to travel through entire countries without stopping.

MGSV is the Metal Gear for those who truly love video games. No nonsense. No movies. No garbage. What you're getting is a true love letter to gaming itself - a culmination of decades of development. Pure gameplay. I saw one user describe it as a Any Forums-core classic. That's true. It's at the core of games. It's one of the greatest games ever made. It really is beautiful.

With mods its a great game

Agreed

Has modding gotten to the point where people can make custom missions?

Skullface's motivation and goal is actually interesting.
I still hate that the game basically makes it seem like Big Boss was just a careless human wrecking ball in MGS3 though

>No nonsense. No movies.
That's absurd- the gameplay is great but over half of the campaign missions exist solely for the cutscenes they're attached to.

>first act fills you with a lust for revenge, starting from the moment you escape a mass murder at a hospital
>second act has the revenge drive you to endless pointless conflict, finishing with paranoia and leading to you committing mass murder at a hospital

MGSV is not unfinished, it does exactly what it is trying to do. It just never got it's MGS2 reappraisal moment for some reason. The violence you chase at first e comes home and hurts you instead.

skullface is joke, he's ridiculous and his goal makes no fucking sense

Whatever helps you sleep at night nigger, the rest of the MGS fandom will keep on thinking it's dogshit with nice gameplay

It's not ever going to get such a reappraisal, because honestly, MGS2 has a lot going for it as a whole while the cracks in MGSV start showing really quickly. I think after the predictable 10/10 GOTYAY phase where it was lavished will all the usual attention from shills, most people were over it pretty quick (aside from autists such as myself who were able to sink way too many hours in just because I am easily amused). People talk about how great it plays but honestly it's really simplistic (not merely simple) at its core, with many mechanics that indicate an ambition for complexity that was never actually realized. You could write an essay on shit wrong with MGSV and if you have sunk a lot of hours in, then all that stuff is obvious to you. I really don't think it deserves or requires reappraisal, I feel like most people I talk to about it think it's decently fun but kind of a missed opportunity, rating it about "decent" and that's pretty accurate imo

I had the same problem but then I hit motherbase rides wall to unlock overpowered weapons.
It was just too much.

The game's over at that point anyway. The online resource sinks aren't worth it for anything but FOB raids. Get your S ranks and collectibles and move on. or delete your save and do it over again with arbitrary gimmicks

I play MGS half for the story, strong gameplay in this series wont keep me interested. I beat all the other ones 2-3 times but I could not even finish this trash after killing skulll face

play it fag

Correct
