because my observations are also extremely original

i'm sure nobody else has ever said that about the series ever

like the long cutscenes

rambling exposition

twists and turns out of nowhere to further complicate the storyline

mmmyep

nobody has ever made that observation before ever

1. the writing is a translation from the writing of a man who can't speak english

2. MGS tells its story with more than just words

in fact words are a very small part of how it tells its story

try and tell me that the fight with the end wasn't a good story

i don't recall saying that

also, Snake Eater is a great game. Just wanted to say that.

Clunky, alien controls

and other MGS staples aside

gameplay is pretty damn good

At least I can control the camera in Snake Eater

barely

but I can control it

IDK how people beat the older ones, I can't get past the first fucking screen of the original MGS

Also, I admire how he's not a native English speaker, but his writing is still lackluster by my own standards. He tells more often than he shows.

But maybe Phantom Pain will be different. It certainly looks good. I hope it's not nearly as soap opera-ish as MGS 4 was.

1 and 2 aren't like that though

well okay 2 more so than 1

but all that overly convoluted rambling super long cutscene shit only really got bad in 4

1 2 and 3 actually had fairly easy-to-understand stories if you had a basic knowledge of the series

have you watched matthew matosis' retrospective series of the series

it basically sums up all of MGS

go watch it

actually go watch matt matosis' shit in general

he's fucking amazing

I hate it when people over-complicate storylines....

There's usually not a need to. With MGS, I recall reading about it and just like... wow. What the fuck. It's complex in ways that I just... ugghh.

Waiting for Godot is just

two dudes waiting for some dude named Godot. That's... it.

but you can simplify MGS games like that too

except 4

4 is a gordian knot

MGS 1: Soldier sent in to stop terrorists and rescue politicians. Finds out he's a clone, fights another clone.

MGS 2: Soldier sent in to stop terrorists and rescue politician. Finds out he's in an elaborate training simulation to turn him into a super soldier. Also Earth is an oligarchy.

MGS 3: Soldier sent in to kill his legendary mentor who betrayed her country. And also stop the Shagohod.
