Moving to YMMV page for The Phantom Pain.


* IKnewIt:
** Many fans and sources speculated that ''The Phantom Pain'' was actually a ''VideoGame/MetalGear'' game well before it was announced as such, thanks to the clues left in the original trailer.
** A number of fans had figured out that the {{creepy child}} with a gas mask was actually a young Psycho Mantis, or that he was at least involved with the mysterious organization of "Those Who Don't Exist". This was given further credence by ''Game Informer'' about a month before the release of ''Ground Zeroes''.
** From his reveal, there were much speculation being thrown around about Eli being [[spoiler:a young [[VideoGame/MetalGearSolid Liquid Snake]]]], and with very little talk on the matter, only strengthened the suspicions. [[spoiler:So, when it turns out that he actually ''is'' Liquid, no one was surprised.]]
** Regarding a huge plot twist revealed at the end of the game: [[spoiler:several people guessed that "Venom Snake" was a clone of Big Boss. While this isn't entirely true, he is a separate individual. Rather than being a complete clone, he made in to a body double with MagicPlasticSurgery and hypnotherapy]].

** Hideo Kojima originally assumed ''Ground Zeroes'' would end up on the [=PSP=] or [=PS3=] and ''The Phantom Pain'' would be on the next console generation. However, by the time ''Rising: Revengeance'' finished its troubled development the [=PS4=] came out quicker than Kojima anticipated, so the team targeted the next generation instead for both games.
