I think I've played it through twice, once when it came out and again in 2017. Crazy how it basically perfected stealth gameplay and nobody ever even attempted to copy the recipe

Does it top the OG? I spent hours on the DEMO alone just scooting around in the cardboard box, tapping on walls, choking out guards. Perfection imo

5 basically completely flips the formula of the other games -- relatively little in the way of cutscenes/plot after the opening few hours of the game (pretty obvious it just flat out didn't get finished as the plot is especially thin through the last half) but the gameplay is 180. It's an especially stark contrast to 4 which felt like a movie interspersed with some occasional crawling

the gameplay itself is miles above MGS1 or really any other stealth game. Story in MGS1 was much more fleshed out. MGSV clearly ran out of money - one part of the game previews all sorts of shit that never happened, shit with the kid, etc

180

I beat it when it first came out, and I replayed it I think two years ago, to completion.

WIsh they had finished the storyline, but wow what a triumph. I would just clear out every base and capture every guard with stealth and skyhook them out of there, tried to never kill anyone. Just pure fun. THe stealth mechanic has never been matched, and the graphics were fucking great.

Every perfect game has no one copying it for some reason. Meanwhile westerners are constantly devising the next FPS so that it can be The Same.

For some reason my left button doesn't work when the controller is in wireless mode but works wired (???). Only an in-game issue too, works fine elsewhere. Will try again tonight

also lol@the "nuke free" cutscene

Was an issue with my like 10 year old steam controller config

Also forgot you can't have multiple saves in this game. Shame I had to wipe my prestigious old base

Steam link is 180 though.

I enjoyed it a lot for about 10 hours (after the abysmal cut scene filled beginning) but then it became a slog and the entire base building portion was just a disaster, eventually I was just trying to pop guys in cool ways and gave up

a) I played this using a stream controller (which had those funky touchpad things + gyro) back in the day, holy shit my 8bitdo wireless sucks for aiming. The joysticks have way too much inertia so you can't make fine aim adjustments, the initial movement requires a fair amount of force so you always over-flick. Hopefully I still have an xbox controller laying around, playing an FPS with a controller is always suboptimal but this is ass.

b) Constantly impressed by just how well done the game is (even not really being finished) and how noticable the Curation is. E.g. there's no difficulty settings, but the mission rating system will just implicitly shame you into not accepting a ttt B. The side missions are filler, but they're typically either fun or challenging, not an endless procedurally generated snoozefest. Lots of unique little mechanics and touches in the game (the cassette system, easter eggs like fooling guards by playing a tape of a guy shitting, etc.) that you don't see as often in Games Created By Committee

c) I'm not sure there's a single player game in existence which is more purely fun than MGSV can be. Not the best necessarily, just the most fun. Related to above but all the little pieces come together very nicely -- was laughing my ass off when I failed a mission by rolling off a not-particularly high cliff to be immediately met with the "AGH!"

d) Quiet is such a stupid fucking character. Kojima really out-Kojimbo'd himself this time

Almost done, still 180. If this game were finished and actually had a plot/more cutscenes (funny considering how all the others play) it could've easily been the POTUS game of all time.

Also looks pretty damn good in 4k
