This is the first metal gear I played. I just saw it and I wanted to try it. It was a really fun game the gun gameplay is really cool. And I like the freedom and creativity it gives you. That was how I felt back then. Even though this is my least favourite metal gear. I liked it well enough to want to play all the games. And weirdly enough in hindsight it fits I started with this.

Negatives:

-Big boss has no personality. I headcanon it being because he's just venom. But he still could have had something different not just have nothing.

-The game just lacks personality in general. It has it in gameplay but in the story it's so bland. Ocelot, Mantis, and even fucking Liquid Snake all have so little personality it hurts to watch.

-Clash of clans wait 2 days for a weapon upgrade

-The fanservice got even worst somehow I hate quiet.

-The game gets repetitive, missions start feeling the same, only like 3 bosses, And a main antagonist somehow worst than volgin.


I want to end the metal gear series with the positives:

-I really like what they did with master miller. He's amazing here probably the best character in this game.

-I like the idea of Venom snake because even in metal gear 1 big boss acts different than in metal gear 2. This twist makes that make sense and I love that. I just wish he had that easily angered personality with a mix of stupidity in this game. That would have even worked well with miller and ocelot if they kept his personality. Wasted potential there.

-I love the Last cutscene. After finishing rising I came back to this game just to play the last mission. In this cutscene the actual big boss talks a lot, and that continues in the post game recordings. And then it just ends at the beginning. It all just makes sense. Both that it ends at the start of metal gear 1. And also because this is the first one I played. Easily my favourite series of all time.
