Honestly I had such high hopes for this game. It started out really very strong. The combat was really interesting and the story seemed exciting. By the end though it sort of petered out. The endings were a bit disappointing and didn't really tie up enough of the loose threads. It felt very rushed. The side missions also felt very repetitive; having to fight the same servants several times.

When I started the game, I felt like it'd be at least an 80 but by the end I feel like I can give it a 72 for still giving me a good gameplay experience but feeling a bit disappointed by the end.

I'll be honest and upfront and say that I already had a bias against this game going in. I've been putting off actually beating this for well over a decade. I've played all of the Metal Gear games, except for 5 and this and this was basically what I had expected. The gameplay wasn't really for me and neither was the mindless story. The music was the only part of this game that I will admit is good. Some of the bosses were bullshit hard on normal and at points I almost considered rage quitting. I'm just glad that I don't have to play this game again. 65/100
