Was it really that bad?

don't even fucking act like it wasn't

^this, end of thread

No.

Yes.

second best open world game this gen after botw

better than nier, nioh and yakuza 0, all three games Sup Forums seem to love

>shit bosses
>forgettable characters
>boring ass main character
>unfinished mess of a story
>no actual military bases, just campsites
>repetitive missions/side missions
>playing tapes for story
>d horse being the only good option for buddy

Those first four apply as much to Sons of Liberty and Guns of the Patriots as they do to V.

It's fun as hell. Too bad it can never end.

It's one of those games Sup Forums is too autistic to enjoy.

My regional servers keep crashing so yes it is...Plus the fucking Fulton punching really? Kojima is a jewish nigger

Non-argument with zero evidence.

>yes
>it's pretty much all the same characters as before, and I wouldn't say Quiet or Evil Lone Ranger or Magic Indian were interesting but I haven't forgotten them.
>literally every game ever
>yes
>at least a few solid military bases, the one in the north in Afghanistan is legit
>yes
>yes
>d-doggo is fine

It's a fun game but was missing everything everyone loved from a Metal Gear game

I haven't been able to get myself to finish Ground Zeroes even though I own both. Something about the gameplay just feels really off and nothing like a Metal Gear to me.

From what I've been told, if I don't like GZ there's no real point in pushing myself to play TPP, especially since the story is shit.

Mechanically, the game was sound and the most intuitive of the series. The big problem lies with unfulfilled potential on every other front.

>repetitive missions
>uninteresting story that just ends
>most new characters introduced are horrible, especially quiet
>terrible bosfights, even worse than PW
>world is dead, hardly any wildlife or no normal people just living in the area
>starting missions is cumbersome by being instanced and has to specifically start via a helicopter ride, even if you are already at the mission area
>motherbase is just dull, empty, and far too large for no reason

I could go on, but it's pointless. The game is out, it's disappointing it turned out this way, and I won't be supporting Kojima again after his three strikes ie MGS4, MGSPW, and now MGSV.

Why should I have to provide evidence when you didn't have a shred of it in yours? You threw out some hot opinions with nothing to back them up, so don't be crying when other people do the same.

>worse bosses than PW
This is bullshit. As mediocre as V's bosses were they were still far better than the mindless bullet sponges in PW.

>mindless bullet sponges

They were bullet sponges, but they all required some strategy to beat, especially if you went for the stealthy route. MGSV has none of that and just consists of awful bossfights against bulletsponge enemies.

>forgettable characters
>kaz nigger jokes still appear on Sup Forums to this day
>people bitch about venom on Sup Forums to this day
>people still ask what the fuck was his problem? to this day

yes

The airport Skull fight was shit for sure, but the rest were fine. The Skull snipers alone were better than anything in PW. The Quiet fight was a decent mid-tier Sniper duel and the Sally fight was great, probably the best Metal Gear fight since the Ray army.

In retrospect its deep simply because the story of the game is the story of Kojima/Konami, which is pretty cool. Big Boss betrayed his followers to start his own nation because Kaz was more concerned with the financial success of Mother Base rather than the haven for soldiers it was meant to be.

I really didn't think it was all that bad. The plot did some heinous shit to the MGS series though. I'd say it was better than the Mass Effect 3 ending for hurting a series replayability.

it gets really repetitive and if you don't care at all about MGS' retarded weeb story you will probably drop it after a couple of hours. I made it about 3.

>applies to sons of liberty
You can go fuck yourself.

Shit bosses? Check. Forgettable characters? Not all of them, but most were. Boring ass main character? CHECK. Unfinished mess of a story? CHECKMATE.

>sahelanthropus fight
>just get in a vehicle, shoot at it, and move when it attacks you

Again, go fuck yourself and your shit taste.

4 already killed Solid Snake's character and ruined the entire series. V just loosely tied MG2 into MGS. Story wise it felt more like a weird spin off but it wasn't a detrimental ending for the series, that was definitely 4

there really should be a way to have us lock threads when posts like this end the thread perfectly

How did 4 ruin his character?
