Kid and his psychic friend steal the most advanced weapon in history and a virus that has the potential to eradicate...

MGSV was too smart for Yea Forums

100% agreed, it was flawed from the very start. Kojima went full retard long before Konami did.

* Dove head first into the open world meme which had huge impacts on the overall tone and pacing that the series was known for
* Fired the iconic voice actor of their most important character because Kojima is a starfucker and just finished binge-watching 24
* Takes place in a time period that needs no exploration
* Unnecessary twist just for the fuck of it
* Taking something that was pretty much universally considered the word element of 2 and 4 and rebranding it as PARASITES
* Clearly had no master plan for certain characters or plot elements even before Konami started stonewalling
* Makes fuckall sense in terms of the TECHNOLOGY available in the game, in the 80's there's shit that is lightyears beyond anything in the 2010's period of 4.

KOJIMA

The unfinished ending shows that Boss hunts them down and gets the virus back and destroys the metal gear thing

NICE WRITING BRO

>lacks spice

why did you taste the soup if it was cold and raw, user?

So why was this Metal Gear so much more advanced than Rex?

Because the soup is a childhood favorite of mine and I really wanted it to be good.

I love this image if for no other reason than it pretends Ghost Babel had a good story.

Why would you waste time writing a noncanon story for a noncanon ending?
Question yourself.

Kojima finished the game, he was just lackluster and kept polishing all the details to a point where Konami didn't find him up to expectations.

This can only conclude to Kingdom of the Flies being scrapped because one, they had two more years to do anything else, which gives them plenty of time to work on the sequence itself, but it likely didn't fit Kojima's vision after he saw the cutscenes at the point it was at 30%.

Sahelanthropus was not operational and just ended up being inspiration for Rex
Mantis cured Liquid's parasites

>Kojima was lackluster and he ran out of ideas
>Kojima is also a perfectionist
>Death Stranding constantly circling behind and ahead schedule
I guessed this habit all along. Plenty of major cutscenes including the ones in Africa by E3 2013 appear to have already been at a presentable stage, although with all of them still in need of improvement.

It's best to completely ignore GZ and TPP and just go with their original claim that peace walker was going to be mgs5, especially since the 2 are pretty much a straight remake of peace walker, replace msf with dd, coldman with skullface and zeke with sahelanthropus and the plot is largely unchanged. Really, the only point that TPP makes is explaining how big boss came back after metal gear 1.

>Death Stranding has had some of the fastest development of a game (allegedly)
>Sony refuses to show it

Kojima needs competent people to reign him in, which is why a blank check for Death Stranding was a fucking terrible idea. I can't totally fault him for what happened with MGSV, as Konami basically hates everyone now, but it doesn't resolve the problem or absolve him entirely.

It blows my mind that people don't realize why the Kingdom of the Flies clips were included in the menus. Like, holy shit. Konami/KojiPro literally went through the trouble of editing a clip showing cut content and even branding it as "x% complete" in the corner. The game's title is "Phantom Pain". It was intentional, it's an attempt to induce a sort of phantom pain in the player using cut content (that was never meant to be in anyway, but the players aren't supposed to know that).

I hate MGS5 and Kojima is a fucking hack but I can't believe people don't see this. Jesus christ.

>Takes place in a time period that needs no exploration
Afghan war is an interesting setting.

Then that isn't a phantom pain, it's a sense of longing for what could have been, in the definition of phantom pain a person who has lost a limb will experience a sense of longing and pain towards that which was lost, chapter 3s existence is more akin to a person born without an arm being frustrated about what is missing. The third chapters was not taken away, it was never there in the first place, therefore a phantom pain could not be induced.

>still pushing the intentional phantom pain meme
>when they patched it so you can restore Quiet to your save, undermining the entire point of the idea

content cant be removed from a game post release though. the "cut content" meme is the way the hack found.

>content cant be removed from a game post release though

That's the point and that's why comparing the frustration over the omission of act 3 to a phantom pain is wrong by definition.

The issue is that MGSV focuses too much on meta, It tries to get players to fill in the blanks and see which option truly has good ending hint: It's the bad one, the world still has nukes, and it relies on that "I'M YOU AND YOU ARE ME" concept that only works properly because it's a video game. Characters are intentionally vague and cryptic because once again, the players are to fill the blanks. The point of the game is supposed to be that story doesn't matter, you can be given the gist of the story while having the greatest gaming experience ever, all while "being Big-- oops, solly forks I Hidya Kojimo relly ment Sunekku!1111 We r all suneku here, Soridu, Nekkido, Venomu, Raiden, Liquido, Soriduoo is all Snake at once, THEY ALL AS THE FUCKING CLEATION OF MINE.

True but it never went as far to explore the consequences of the slav invasion, the terrorist fighting the invasion with support from the usa goverment and more. It's a lot of wasted potential, same with Africa.

Agree. Don't know why he needed the plot twist of the Medic to explain how Bibo survived MG1, it was already explained in MG2 by saying that he had cyborg implants to survive, and for the sake of retcons you could add "parasites" or nanomachines.

>the real phantom pain is the incomplete game
I think that's called a scam.

STAR CITIZEN: THE PHANTOM PAIN

yeah it is
that's why i hate kojimbo and i cant wait for the death stranding trainwreck
fuck that fucking faggot

>"I'M YOU AND YOU ARE ME"
The worse of this plot-twist is that it isn't new. We already saw that in MGS2 and it was superior in every way. Raiden goes as far to reject being an extension of the player and prefers to be only him.

What, afraid of being realistic and realizing that not all game development is figurative?

The plot twist was to make the player feel like he's actually Big Boss. Or wait, fuck everything to hell, Big Boss is the character, "Snake" is an abstract representative term encompassing the guys in Metal Gear that sneak and shoot, smoke something and always sounds badass, and as per , Big Boss, Big Boss, Solid Snake, and Raiden are all "Snake". Big Boss might have dropped "Snake" a long time ago, but he's also Snake as well. Every protagonist in Metal Gear is "Snake". Fuck Kojima. You are "Snake", no, wait, you are "Big Boss", wait, you're still "Snake" too, wait, I'm "Big Boss" and "Snake", what the fuck?

I hate Kojima.

>The plot twist was to make the player feel like he's actually Big Boss.
Yeah but like you said, we already we through that just by playing the games.
>I hate Kojima
You and me buddy.

>Also, wait, what, why are the credits not calling Big Boss "Snake"? He was Snake in Peace Walk--
>Wait, BIg Boss was never "Snake" since Snake Eater?
>Wait, why the fuck was I still "Snake" then?
>Wait, I'm Big Boss?
>Wait. I'm his phantom?
>Wait, I'm "Snake" yet while not being "Snake" at the same time? What?
>"Snake awakens"?
>"Big Boss phantom'" is used when the timeline talks about 1995, yet he's also called Snake when the timeline talks about 1984?
>Wait, what, is "Big Boss phantom" not "Snake"? Is "Snake" not "Snake"? Who's "Snake" anymore? Who the fuck is "Big Boss" then? Who the fuck is "Big Boss' phantom"?

kojima without his tard wrangler Fukushima can't write for shit

>credits are omitted in the game
Who needs proof or sources when you have random wiki editors to tell you what to believe.

here, let me offer my theory:
>The timeline talks about events that the player can't and can control in this game

>In the Phantom Pain, the video game that deals with the events that happened in 1984, you control Big Boss' phantom, which is why he's called per the meta as "Snake" there.
>However, since you didn't control the phantom's actions during the Outer Heaven Uprising, he is called per the canon as "Big Boss' phantom".

Snake is an abstract meta dialect for "the guy you control in every Metal Gear game". Even if the protagonist dropped the codename "Snake", is not using "Snake" anymore, or never was "Snake" in the past, the protagonist is still called Snake by the game and the protagonist's peers, regardless if the protagonist isn't "Snake" to begin with, because lol, Metal Gear, reptile and cardboard box haha kept you waiting huh???:)

The DD soldiers are not Snake, hence they wheeze and run out of breath after a few miles because PLAY MY BELOVED OF CREATION ALL TIME, SUNEKKU, OR YOU WILL SUCKED, HARD !! SIncerery, Video "Not a gay" Kojimbles a.k.a. "Egg", "Hack Fraud" and "Farewell Sausage".

Fukushima got run over by a bus, didn't he? Literally a Yakuza hit job

Meant to be directed towards , whoops.

The fucking ending credits mention they stop him

>The resolution to that it's just a few words in the credits
How is that suppose to make the whole thing better? KoF had this great confrontation between Liquid and Venom, instead we get this.

>It's SUPPOSED to be bad
That still makes it bad user.

Note: Sahelanthropus died on his way back to his home planet

I think he meant legally user.

Watch episode 51 on YouTube

The only omissions are his designer credits. The writing and research shit is all still in the credits.

>We need to see on youtube some cut content that was exclusive TO WATCH originally for only the guys that bought the special edition
I don't know what are you trying to say here, but whatever it is, I know it's not smart at all.

TL;DR
>Big Boss dropped "Snake" since Snake Eater, as far as the story goes.
>Regardless if he's not "Snake", he's still Snake in the meta, when you control him in the games.
>When you are not controlling him, he's called "Big Boss" as per the story.
>This rule also goes for, yes, Big Boss. He might be "Punished "Venom" Snake" in the game where you play as him, but once again, like Big Boss, he is only "Snake" in the meta, but in the story, he's been "Big Boss" since who knows. who even cares, go figure.
>The rule still applies to Big Boss and Big Boss within cutscenes and calls, hence why both of them are called "Snake" there as well, since cutscenes and calls are also engaged by the player. Some cutscenes are interactive, which further prove evidence of the player's engagement and involvement, as stated before.
>When Big Boss' peers talk about "Snake", they are speaking to the player, who controls them, not.Big Boss, even though Big Boss is obviously right fucking there and the peers are obviously talking to Big Boss, even though they are not at all, although they obviously are, while they still aren't.
