You hope Death Stranding... might someday replace the pain. But it never goes away...

>Announce trash old emulator at e3
>Implying they will leave mgsv update to gamescom
Why the FUCK would they do a comeback in a unknown event instead of e3?

Gamescom is far, far bigger than E3, though. (Plus E3 is dead in the water now.) Metal Gear Survive was announced at Gamescom. PT was also announced at Gamescom. With a surprise release. (Worth noting since some people doubt Konami would release MGS V: DE mere months after announcement.)

Holy shit. I just realized that Demon Edition is Definitive Edition, but they can't use Definitive Edition because they already used it.

Being immune to pain doesn't stop you from dying after being impaled by rebar and having your limbs shot off and then being shot in the head by an autistic cuck

>Holy shit. I just realized that Demon Edition is Definitive Edition, but they can't use Definitive Edition because they already used it.
It was Definitive Experience, technically. But yes, they're all variations of Game Title: DE.

Why did MGS V never actually use its title song for anything? youtube.com/watch?v=wlp8GimssgI

I'm searching for a whole new beginning
An endless void
This notion that I sense within me
You're still by my side
Oh, I feel your presence
You'll never leave here
But if I reach out there to hold you
Every part that's real disappears
As I become more present now
I can't see through the pain
A hollow cut through my veins
(the phantom takes his toll)
The days that just keep on coming
The stain that they leave
I wish I could break this casket
But I'm left here to grieve
In a world of my own design
As I become more present now
I can't see through the pain
A hollow cut through my veins
(the shadows takes their toll)
And did you leave me anything?
You're the phantom of my past...
Do you expect me to last, this way?
(a scar and a phantom pain)

I loved playing the game at night stealthing about while listening to this on my cassette player. Great song.

>that copypasta about the XOF soldier who starts out thinking Skull Face is a genius, but by the end he thinks Skull Face is a complete retard.

The so called descriptions of it are essentially it's the exact same game with story changes, so making it would be senseless. If you kill Quiet off in the opening scene but still get another sniper buddy, then it's literally just a reskin of Quiet. Ishmael being a hallucination makes no difference either (although I'd love to know who drove the ambulance in that case).

It's a baseless Yea Forums rumour with nothing to back it up. there's no demon edition. If another MGS game comes along it'll be a completely new one not a remake.

I hope you don't think this intentionally cheesy self-referential shit was meant to be the actual theme of the game. The composer just threw some silly 80s pop sounding songs together complete with his own bad vocals for you to find as tapes and that was one one of them.

Imagine an MGS6 where they drop all the bullshit with Venom replacing BiBo in MG1 and instead have it be Venom vs BiBo.
Diamond Dogs vs Outer Heaven because the two BiBos drift apart and Venom wants nuclear disarmament while John is still after the whole war economy/ nation of soldiers thing

>BiBo
reddit

>The so called descriptions of it are essentially it's the exact same game with story changes
Untrue. The open world has been revamped to be a Far Cry style sandbox with warring factions and large scale AI battles.
>If you kill Quiet off in the opening scene but still get another sniper buddy, then it's literally just a reskin of Quiet.
Which is the entire goddamn idea. Get rid of Quiet because she's a disgrace.
>Ishmael being a hallucination makes no difference either (although I'd love to know who drove the ambulance in that case).
How would it be any different to Call of Duty: Black Ops, where Reznov was a phantom for almost the entire game. You thought he saved you during the helicopter crash. But it was really you. You thought he shot that guy. But it was really you. So the answer is "You drove." You killed Quiet, too. You just imagined this other person doing it.

Wait a minute. Killing Medic and having the player play as Big Boss during the game COMPLETELY CHANGES THE ENTIRE STORY. Eli? He's your son. The entire central twist is gone, and probably replaced with something darker and edgier.

Kojima is a hack and if you are hyped for Death Stranding after the mess that was MGSV that you are a Kojima drone worth any effort to be saved from such cult.

>get rid of Quiet because she's a disgrace
>replace her with an even bigger literally who
>but not a disgrace because she doesn't wear a bikini
M8 fuck off. "Albatross" would not be better in any way, just blander.
At least Quiet had something going on with her love/hate dynamic with Venom and her rebellious don't give a fuck attitude. What the fuck would Albatross even do? How would she do the stuff Quiet does as a buddy if she doesn't have superpowers?
Go dilate.

Oh fuck I joined a cult? I thought I just enjoyed a game with fun gameplay and was mildly interested in another one. Please save me user.

you have some dogshit taste, the vocals ruin what would otherwise be a pretty mediocre 80s synth pop shit

>What the fuck would Albatross even do?
Snipe for you.
>How would she do the stuff Quiet does as a buddy if she doesn't have superpowers?
Move around quietly instead of sonic booming her way across the landscape, for a start.

Remember, user. You really think it's a coincidence that your character in Metal Gear Survive was a sniper? A sniper who woke up in time to use their sniper rifle to shoot the XOF soldier who was about to shoot down Morpho? It really deep fries your nuggies, right? The Demon Edition leak seems to imply that Big Boss ends up crawling through the wreckage of Mother Base instead of flying away... almost like he got shot down because a certain sniper character wasn't there to save him.

>fun gameplay
The gameplay is good, the best it could ever be. But the game is hardly fun after the first 5 hours.
It becomes too repetitive, too shallow, too empty.
MGSV is a tech demo, a tech demo cause kojima was too irresponsible with the resources konami gave him to make and finish MGSV

APOLOGIZE

>muh fukushima!!!!!!!
If anyone's the drone, it's you fags sucking the dick of some random codec writer.
Kojima has been phoning it in on MGS ever since 3 was done, because he was tired of it.
He's been brainstorming Death Stranding ever since MGS3 came out, which explains the incredibly fast development time of Death Stranding.
He literally spent MGSV funds on scouting random locations like Iceland and Normandy which have nothing even close to resembling them in the game.
My point? Saying fuck you to Konami by "wasting" the money on unrelated locations for his own game. Tell me a lot of the places we've seen in Death Stranding trailers don't look reminiscent of those places.

I guess the other 145 hours of fun that I thought I had after the first 5 were all a lie then.

You have shit taste or lack of experience with games.
It's ok. It's like those people who think the Transformers movies are the best thing ever or that Mcdonalds has the tastier food in the world.

You just need to see more of the world :)

Goodluck manged to escape the alternate timeline, and landed in the 1940s. What if "Albatross" is your character from Survive, who managed to escape back to their own timeline, but they got amnesia or some shit and took on a false name, and fate drew them back to Bigggguu Bossssuuuu.

I love the dozens of thousands of dollars Kojima wasted for the 6 million dollar man punching sound. Really responsible from kojima to waste resources in such manner and I can't even imagine what else was wasted in dumb shit for MGSV, regarding budget and time.

Looking at Death Stranding, how simple and shallow the gameplay seems to be from the few gameplay sections they showed (probably because, again, kojima is more worried about putting money on celebs and other dumb shit than actual game development) leads me to believe Death Stranding will be even a bigger flop than MGSV regarding overall in game content and value.

The real phantom pain was the friends we made along the way.

How did 4 ruin the series?

Sure, it changed the people from 3 to be The Patriots but that was only because 2 left that shitty plot element unresolved

Pretty sure I've played a shitload of games over almost 30 years and despise most AAA shit but okay.

EVERYTHING WAS NANOMACHINES.
CUTSCENES SO LONG THE CONTROLLER TURNED OFF.
HOLY SHIT THESE CUTSCENES DON'T STOP.

>Kojima actively wasted time and money on things not related to MGSV
>Because #FucKonami
Jesus Christ you are a fucking drone. How can you say Konami are the bad guys while defending shit like that?

>SO LONG THE CONTROLLER TURNED OFF
Underage.

MGS ended with 3.

>Looking at Death Stranding, how simple and shallow the gameplay seems to be
So impatient.

It pretty much killed all the mystery and supernatural nature of MGS universe with "it was all nanomachines:
It ruined Snake's character arch (went from mgs2 optimistic, positive, to a broken, pessimistic, suicidal character).
Ruined a lot of characters like Raiden, Meryl and made Naomi an insufferable, impossible to be empathetic towards, cunt.
Forced characters out of the grave like Eva and Big Boss for the sake of fanservice.
And the game is overall trash.

2 was the ending of the series. The story was meant to be left unresolved, the whole point was for you to let that shit go and move on with your life. Snake fucking spells that out for you and speaks directly to you as the player yet it still somehow went over the average MGS brainlet's head.

Except your meme fanfic says that Albatross is a Soviet friend of Ocelot and not from the original MB so you can't even stay consistent with the bullshit.
>Move around quietly
Yeah, so that she crawls into position around the time that you're already done with the mission and exfiltrating the hot zone. Great. Also enjoy waiting hours for her to sneak around an outpost to scout for you.

>Ruined a lot of characters like Raiden

If anything, MGS4 redeemed Raiden in the eyes of the fanbase

Enjoy your 2 areas
50 missions featuring the same objectives and Recycling the same assets
The 3 different enemy types
The 3 hours of gameplay and the 10 of cutscenes

How I know this? I don't, but I know what type of games Kojima likes to make and I can suspect what Death Stranding is going to be like by watching the videos related to it. How simple the gameplay looks to be, how, no matter what they showed, it seems like the game is going to be repetitive shit all the way to the end and how it seems to be relying a lot on cutscenes and Hollywood personalities to promote and generate hype

>redeemed raiden
>raiden finishes mgs2 sure of what to do with his life, positive, confident and with a clear objective in mind
>all is reset for the sake of "muh raiden represents the fanbase now and snake represents myself, kojima, the person who copied blade runner scripted and made snatcher, a game everyone loves and uses to prove how much of a genius i am :) "

Yes, 4 was made to please the spectacularly stupid and fanservice hungry fanbase with dumb shit like that.

If I were him, having to keep making a game series I don't want to, i'd do it as well.
Just quitting would be a stupid idea compared to stirring up enough controversy to make you a hotter topic than you usually are, and it worked, he has a blank check from snoy.

The trailers are better than the actual game.

No one forced him to and making games for the same series doesn't imply he had to repeat the same gameplay.
The irony of it all is, Kojima didn't want to make more MGS? More stealth? Death Stranding seems that has stealth. Hell, Death Stranding resembles MGSV a lot gameplay wise.

For someone who people say, made bad games cause of exhaustion, even when he has full control on a new project, it seems it is hard for him to do something else that isn't MGS

>the whole point was for you to let that shit go and move on with your life

and then why have Snake in MGS2 say that he was going to take on the Patriots, therefore teasing at a sequel?

>Snake fucking spells that out for you and speaks directly to you as the player
doesn't he say that to Raiden AFTER Raiden takes off the dogtags, which is when Raiden is no longer the player but his own person?

>Bu hu hu Kojima was so tired of MGS

He quite literally says it isn't a stealth game. And how can you say it resembles MGSV a lot when we've only seen enough of the gameplay to determine that it has crouching, third person, and guns?

>it seems it is hard for him to do something else that isn't MGS
If you've actually seen any of the trailers, I find it incredibly hard to imagine that you could believe anything other than it having an EXTREMELY different identity compared to MGS.

Yeah I'm not going through this shit again. You retards won and got your sequel anyway so the theme of the game no longer matters.

correct

>Except your meme fanfic says that Albatross is a Soviet friend of Ocelot and not from the original MB so you can't even stay consistent with the bullshit.
You do realise that Goodluck was born in the 1980s. We went into the future, and then went back in time to the 1940s and took on another identity. If you ever escape from the hellscape of Survive, you'll likely end up appearing years before the events of MGS V. I wouldn't put it past Konami have some "SNIPER WITH A MYSTERIOUS PAST" shit. Have a silent female sniper, JUST LIKE YOUR CHARACTER IN SURVIVE IF YOU PLAYED A FEMALE CHARACTER. Just give her amnesia, and she'd fit perfectly.

Another shit thread on Yea Forums.

>He quite literally says it isn't a stealth game. And how can you say it resembles MGSV a lot when we've only seen enough of the gameplay to determine that it has crouching, third person, and guns?
It features literal crouch walking through the fog to avoid the monsters. Not unlike a certain recent Metal Gear title.

Fukushima?! I thought we bombed that place.

He didn't have to keep making MGS games. MGS4 was directed by somebody else before he stepped in. Ac!d, Portable Ops, Ghost Babel, all written and directed by other people.
No, the real thing is that he doesn't like other people working on what he calls his series. He can't stand this his name isn't on the box because he is a massive narcissist.

>muh narcissist!!!!
Literally no evidence. Just like the "kojima's a hack!!!" faggots.

What's wrong with the guy on the right? Is he American?

That's a big reach. It's more likely Konami made him work on MGS4 otherwise he would've been fired.

You have to be a serial narcissist to call yourself God in your own games, stamp your name on the front of the box and get so upset about your name not being on the box one time that you put it at the start of every mission.
He also personally disowns games he didn't direct, like Portable Ops, despite that game being a part of 4's story.
Except MGS4 already had somebody else directing it.
And why exactly would Konami fire him at that point? They didn't fire him because he didn't work on half the Metal Gear franchise and he became a VP a few years later.

Not much besides the
>puts his name at least twice in the credits at the beginning and end of missions
>named both of his studios after himself
But I don't really care if he is a narcissist or a virgo just whether the game is fun or not.

Attached: god.png (411x53, 14K)

>Except MGS4 already had somebody else directing it.
Yeah, and fans demanded he work on MGS4 as well.

So, it's not Konami's fault, it's entirely on you people.
Good to know, next time one of you fucks says 'Kojima was forced to make MG games' I can just respond with 'By your kind'.

But don't we already know what happens anyway, V is after 3 but before 1, 2 and 4, correct. I get that part of the game isn't quite there and it leaves gaps but ut still sets up all the stuff that happens later.

the real phantom pain was the friends we lost along the way

That's a silly meta joke about him being the creator of the series. God you faggots get angry about anything.

Thats right, get fucked loser. And also have sex.

MGS4 is one of worst games ever. Konami should fire Kojimbo after that. MGSV is miracle. Kojimbo is top tier hack. It could be much worse.

such a lust for shitposting... WHOOOOOO!?

you know sometimes I wonder just how many anons have offed themselves or died in an accident never to be heard from again

youtube.com/watch?v=FLk1H-nDx94&t=5s

If you told me David Cage took over the series from Kojima for MGSV, I'd nearly believe you after the garbage that was the story.

I dunno but I'm pretty sure that you're one of them.

See folks, this is why you shut the fuck up about games you've never touched.

>MGS 4 apologism
Die

MGS4 is easily the best third person shooter ever. Cope.
