I came into this with uncertain expectations, as I heard that it’s very cutscene heavy and filled with lots of silly lore… lucky for me, I love that!! The cutscenes ARE very long (as it holds a guiness world record for the longest cutscene in any game) but I love seeing the whole story unfold. And the lore is so funny at times, with it also being just so interesting.
I love the characters. Raiden coming back was amazing, Snake being old and out of his prime made for an interesting character arc, and his FATHER coming back out of nowhere was definitely a shock, but it was kind of awesome. Ocelot being his usual self was great to see, and fighting him in REX was doubly awesome, especially as it was at Shadow Moses… which looks great in HD by the way.
And the gameplay is just so fun! It’s not far off from MGSV’s gameplay, and I was shocked by how intuitive and fun it ended up being. The OctoCamo is also really cool to use.
Idk what else to say really, I just really liked it. And the characters are awesome. Shoutout to Drebin, Snake, Raiden, Sunny, HAL!!!, Ocelot, Raiden’s kid with the funny haircut… I could basically commend all of them.
