Truly one of the most infuriating games of all time for me. So much potential wasted.

I finally played through MGS for the first time simply to get ready for MGSV, and that's the one thing I don't regret about the experience... getting four great games out of it.

The only thing I wished was in the game was more indoor infiltration missions, the game is great besides that.

It's an odd game. It has all the ingredients of a great game but it's just not fun.

The only MG game I didn't finish.

I mean, none of the games have good writing, so I at least appreciate MGSV's cutting back on the narrative, and allowing you to take in most of the story when you want

That's even worse.
They had one of the best engines ever and they managed to do nothing with it.
10h into the game you're already into repetitive grindfest.

1 and 2 are one of the best games in history when it comes to story, overall message (especially 2) and voice acting.
Then it gradually went downhill.

MGS is my favorite series next to Soulsborne, but I highly disagree.

for one, none of the dialogue between characters feels organic. secondly, the amount of exposition - there's more telling than showing. and there momentum of the story is often broken up by power point presentation like cutscenes, that last way too long.

but those are criticisms that I have for the four main games.

I remember first playing the game and having so much fun on the first mission to save Kaz, sneaking through the world. Then as I got to the end of the game, I was doing the exact same things as I was on the first mission, but with more OP gear so it was less fun. It was all just so monotonous and felt like a chore to play after a while. I genuinely thought it could've been one of the best games of all time but it just shit itself in almost every aspect, I can't believe it was as shit as it is. What a disappointment.

remember that time that like 90% of the plot in MGSV is filler, and then when you actually get to the story the game just kind of ends because the ending is incomplete?

I think next to maybe Metroid Prime I have never been so hyped for a video game as I was for MGSV. honestly that game was the biggest video game disappointment of my entire life and every now and then i'll reinstall the game again and play it with the delusional thought that one day i'll play it again and it will just be better somehow

The only redeeming quality is that the engine makes messing around in game for a bit inherently fun.

However, even that just make me angrier about the wasted potential.

LOL how have I not seen this

Honestly that's the one part of the series I could just never abide. Kojima inserted soooo many weird masturbatory elements and odd sexual undercurrents that, like, made me uncomfortable to play just for having female relatives.

One of the most ridiculous things about the game is that if you've seen the trailers, you've seen literally every cutscene in the game. The game itself has nothing more to offer in terms of story.

Hell, actually, the trailers have cutscenes that aren't even in the game. So there's actually more potential story in the trailers than the actual game.
