True that. REAL mgs starts only on EE

now that's just retarded, I'm pretty sure you enjoy not starving, not freezing and having infinite amounts of entertainment granted to you just on the basis of being born in modern times in an affluent society, you don't really mind that you don't have to struggle every day so obviously if you have any human empathy you want other people to experience the same thing and not suffer

You want to create feud between this two. I'm not your meme soldier, I love them both. Now make me a rimjob.

>normally there's only easy mode
Does he have amnesia? All the MGS games I remember play had "very easy." I was young and stupid, unable to play games, so I always played on that mode.

>revolutionized the industry
You're fucking retarded

Kojima is Japanese in genetics only. Dude sucks off western devs and actors so much these days. MGSV was basically him trying to ruin MGS and turn it into GTA

“The glasses never come off”

not enough cutscenes on the right

Epic meme but here's the real map.

>So we want everyone to first face that challenge and to overcome it in some way that suits them as a player
That makes sense in the RPGs Miyazaki makes. If you find something too hard you can just go level and shit or try another area. Kojima typically makes action games where you can't just go grind or find items to increase your HP or cheese a boss with co-op. And the two games Kojima has made where you can actually upgrade your equipment have no difficulty options.

I feel envious of my ancestors that they know how to live off the land. Knew how to hunt and farm, that's a self-sufficiency beyond anything modern society can give you.

He shits on the U.S. government but love Hollywood, which is just the propaganda arm of the U.S. government.
How the guy who made MGS2 doesn't see that is beyond me. I bet he didn't even write MGS2. Someone else wrote it for him. He doesn't even know what MGS2 is about.

Hacks like Kojima are the cancer killing video games, quit trying to turn video games into movies just because you failed to become a director and make actual movies doesn't mean you should ruin video games with your cinematic bullshit.

>DS 3 invasion mechanics
>Not very easy mode for hosts
Sure.

Certain difficulties only exist in American/European releases, because Kojima is a madlad. Japan's easy mode is probably comparable to normal or even hard mode in America.

no you don't, fucking larping faggot, you fucking whined all through sports day to go home and play video games

I mean I think easy modes are shit, but Kojima used to do some interesting stuff with difficulties. I don't always want to play European Extreme but its a nice to have that hard coded in when I want to do that sort of challenge run.

I just want some gameplay for Elden Ring already. I wanna see how Miyazaki is gonna make this interesting.

I was gonna disagree with you, but then I remembered how the new Jack Ryan show trailer is basically propaganda to get people used to the idea of a war in Venezuela.

each approach is valid for the reasons they state.

Kojima made a movie game (which he's been tending toward for years), so he gave it a movie difficulty. The player learning anything to overcome an obstacle is not important to him or to understanding his work. That's fine, but it'd really suck if it's all there was.

Nope. Eat a dick. There's a shit ton of variety out there. Go buy an Atari and post on /vr/ if you're going to pretend gameplay is the only aspect that means anything to you. But we all know you're just a bitter shitposter.

I hate you retards who insist on tying video games to real life.

There are no real-world stakes to video games. You won't die from not beating a video game. You won't suffer. It's just entertainment.

All you people trying to connect entertainment to real-world problems ARE part of the problem. Instead of focusing on actual policies to help people, you trot out half-baked ideologies that only exist to make you angry on Twitter. Fuck off.

If you think the term "Down on your luck" applies to retarded faggots that made the wrong choices for 30 years straight you're truly deluded.

If you don't believe that, then you only get your information from larpers on this board and do no actual research of your own.

Actually, that would explain why you believe the fukushima meme.

Not true. There was next to zero story or cutscenes in MGSV

the picture was talking about some overarching morals and not video games in particular
also reddit spacing
the "retards who made wrong choices" still live million times better than some starving african kid in a wartorn country, because just by living in a society like this spares you from huge amounts of suffering
and even then it's for your benefit as well that those people get treated and not suffer or they might just stab you in a parking lot or shoot up a school where your kid is having lunch
this "people need to suffer LOL XD" is a retarded edgy mindset that will always just backfire because it'll create more suffering and that will affect you as well

Games wouldn’t be fun if they were all the same.

>somehow you think you earned anything
he wasn't implying that at all, you inferred his entire personality from the quote of some star wars game he posted. it's literally avellone fedora-core, but it's not that far off base since charity is an enormous waste of time and non-profits/volunteer organizations are so poorly managed they really don't end up helping anyone other than the 17-25 year olds that want to put something on their resume

Sounds fine. They're two different genres.

Kojima games have almost always had difficulty settings, anyway.

And Miyazaki may have said this, but Fromsoft lowered the difficulty for all three dark souls games via a patch soon after launch. I think they did it with Sekiro too, but I could be wrong.

"y no ppl just hand stuff out for free? y americans no just giv stuff to my rathole shit country!?"

I suppose you think people who follow religion are larping morons, too.

Silent Hill 2 had a difficulty level where you could only die to PH.
I didn't know that and I still loved the game.

there are plenty of entrepreneurs that grew up dirt poor, were raised by abusive parent(s) and still managed to educate and/or train themselves to go on to establish their fortunes doing whatever they're famous for. not all of them were always there

oprah winfrey was bounced between multiple parental figures, sexually molested and poor as shit but still managed to do well in pre-secondary school, earned a scholarship and found a job working in local news media before she got her big break. it's almost as if persistence, timing, and seeking opportunities instead of relying on social assistance yields the big rewards. "right time, right place"

but i'm not surprised someone who attributes this to being an american thing has the views you do. if your ancestors had any sense, they'd have migrated with the other go-getters and you wouldn't be swimming in refugees today that your government has mandated you bend over backwards for

I mean, it's not like someone not knowing exactly how medicine is made really invalidates his point.

cool strawman, all I said is that suffering doesn't improve the life of anyone, your life wouldn't be better if you were suffering, so putting suffering on a moral pedestal is retarded
at the end of the day you act like a cunt because you're scared that you could lose your comfortable life and you'd have to suffer, you'd literally do anything in your power to not suffer, so it would be quite the hypocrisy for you to say that suffering is good
of course they are
because there was a society that allowed them to do that, try getting education or train yourself in 200 bc syria
same thing, oprah lives in a first world country, not in wartorn africa so she was able to do that
if my ancestors thought that suffering is awesome they wouldn't have created a society that spares me from suffering, again if you put suffering on a pedestal you're a retard
what's with americans and shitty strawmans, suffering is shit, factually provable that it's shit and doesn't improve anyone's lives, stop being an edgy retarded teenager

Funny, because Yea Forums shat on MGSV for not being a movie about Big Boss murdering children. The fact that anyone takes seriously the story of a character calles Big Boss is embarassing.

They're objectively and mechanically very different than each other.

That doesn't invalidate the teachings that just invalidates people in general.

Do you welcome it?

The first playthrough in darksouls is EZ mode. If you want to play hard mode you need to clear it first and start new game +, then you can keep upping the difficulty if you like by clearing the last boss over and over

Metal Gear died because theres nowhere to go, MGS4 finished everything. Its just MGS drones are a bunch of kids who can't accept when things are over.

ugh

We want good gameplay AND a good story
4 lacked both and 5 lacked the story(though the open world aspect also hurt the gameplay)

Is there any game that only allows you to play in maximum difficulty in the first playthrough?

If you want plot, go watch a movie. Stroytelling in videogames is always tacked on in ways unrelated to what videogames are, often using techniques from other mediums like reading or cutscenes.

They have different goals and design in mind.

Gameplay is something that must be the priority in all videogames. Theres no books where they dont focus in the writing, or movies where they dont focus on inagery. If a developer respects videogames as a medium, he will put gameplay ahead of anything else. One reason why multiplayer videogames are nowadays the best example of a videogame, while singleplayer videogames are falling behind focusing on plot and other pointless drivel.

Doesn't matter what you think nigga, I KNOW I'd still be able to whoop your brain's ass with no formal education.

I couldnt care less about the plot of Metal Gear, and the boss fights, although flashy, didnt offer any challenge. Plus, the game lasts 3 hours.

what is this shitty strawman, suffering sucks ass, don't put it on a pedestal, you literally can't argue that, you'd literally rather kill people than suffer

>hack and slash has shit gameplay
>DUDE BUT LE EPIC STORY, LE EPIC SENATOR
Reminder that MGS drones do not like videogames.

You’re playing the wrong series
What’s the point of playing games like this is if you hate both the story and gameplay?

Seethe more faggot

Then just make a fucking movie

I hate any sort of game that focuses on the plot.
And, sadly, MGS is, or was, one of the few stealth franchises left, so I had to put up with it.
Its dead now, but im not really gonna miss it. Dozens of games and only two focused in the gameplay. Embarassing.

>not giving thanks to the people who came before you and built the infrastructure you currently inhabit
go to middle of nowhere africa then you ungrateful swine

kojima hasn't made a good game since mgs3. prove me wrong.

the shit are you saying, that's exactly what I say, you should be grateful for the people who built your society and maintain it, they do it so you don't have to suffer
because suffering is fucking horrible, it's not a thing to be admired and say that "suffering makes you improve ;)" no it doesn't, it demonstratably doesn't so treat suffering as the shittiest thing in the world because that's what it is

If you're play any game that isn't competitive and multiplayer you practically are watching a movie

Ok

you should calm down buddy
youre typing is taking a nosedive

Had me until the last line. I've seen it before how things like difficulty selections, mods, and procedural generation can create a barrier to shared experiences, and discussion. In games where there's just -the game- everyone can talk about, and discuss the same moments the same way, but note how it impacted one another differently.

I'm gonna rape u

I always find funny how people in this board call kojima a hack and his games movies that shouldn't be considered games, while still defending and playing H-games where you literally just fastfoward a powerpoint presentation of anime girls until they get naked

its obvious that most people here just hate kojima cause some fag said it was cool to hate him

Different=good and quality is all that matters

>Suffering bad!
>being born in a pre-existing infrasture is PRIVILEGE

What are some video games where the OP is a two dimensional faggot?

jokes on you
im gonna rape you first!

Anytime i play a visual novel shit i auto skip everything. it's all the same shit anyway. if it doesn't have a skip than i dont bother.

I just looked for cg rips but now that pandas dead why bother.

I meant different isnt equal to good

My dick is a controller when I play H-games because the challenge is to not cum until the characters do.

so, where's the arguments
*teleports behind you*
heh nothin personnel

>le cuckshima meme

>I still think the Dark Souls series could accommodate some level of difficulty selection
>ignoring all the options already available, like different playstyles and the ability to summon players

It's almost like different works aim to different things

>Yea Forums is one person
consider the following:
-the people who talk about kojima don't necessarily play hentai games
-the people who who talk about kojima and play hentai games don't necessarily hate him
-the people who play hentai games don't necessarily talk about kojima

There is no argument, that is the position you have taken and your rhetoric revolves around how humans don't like suffering and upkeep on pre-existing infrastructure isn't a factor. Also using fear tactics is bad "because it just is ok?" I am not here to change your mind I am here to call you a faggot.

do you know what pretentious means?

i dont understand how "vague dialogue in medieval era english" makes a game's story pretentious

Kojima didn't want to make any more MG games after the first one

>there's no argument
good to know, not even gonna read the rest of your shitty post, it's probably just another assortment of meaningless memes

based

I feel like there's probably quite a bit of overlap on Yea Forums between kojima fans and VN fans desu.

They're both tied to some of the best games i've ever played. I play MGS on the hardest settings and a variety of ways. I'm fine with MGS having a difficulty option for people that want to experience the story but aren't good at games. The funniest part about this shitty thread is that the only reason From games have the reputation of being challenging is because you can't lower the difficulty. Even more amusing is most games are just as challenging or even more so than From games if you play them at the hardest difficulty.

I'm sure since Yea Forums only plays Nintendo games they probably don't even know what difficulty settings are anyway.

>similar over the shoulder camera
>similar gameplay
>similar enemies
>similar map design
>similar checkpoint system
>stories all deal with undeath and immortality themes

Idk...

Spoken like a true basedboy.

I said game not movie.

>plot has no place in videogames
wow, what a fucking retard you are

If you don't want to play the game on super easy mode, you don't have to. Just play it on normal or hard difficulty. It's literally a non-issue

When retards don't fully understand a story immediately they call it pretentious. Story leaves something up to the player's own interpretation? Pretentious. Open endings? Pretentious. No exposition dumps? Pretentious.
It's the favorite word of angry brainlets.

I have absolutely zero issues with games having a very easy/cake walk/story mode difficulty. Sure, video games have the uniqueness of interactivity over books or movies or TV shows, but some people are still mostly interested in the story, and their experience isn't amplified by a cutthroat or even challenging combat.

If someone has fun playing metal gear solid uniquely through the story, why force them through parts they don't enjoy (the mechanics of the game, stealth)? Why force them to just watch playthroughs and youtube videos?

The story is as much a part of the game as the mechanics are.

inb4 blah blah carmack quote blah blah soup for the spoon

Yeah, just like people say "watching movies for the story is dumb, why not just read a book? You should only pay attention to the cinematography/editing/musical score!"

What's wrong with allowing each player to enjoy the game in their own way?

>dark souls should have an ez mode because i can't beat...i mean the disabled can't beat it! >Think of the poor girl with 1 fused hand and one tiny doll arm with no hand who desperately needs to play dark souls and cant because you incels are gatekeeping her!
>fine From, dont make it easy, YOUR LOSS! Now no one will buy your games

shut the fuck up.

But kreya was wrong. That was the point of her character and her story. Her philosophy was wrong and she was defeated by someone who did the exact opposite that she espoused.

Would be nice if they took a page out of Kojima's book and added hard difficulties because Dark Souls is babby tier

Both are fine. Difficulty select and babby modes have a been a thing since the "Nintendo Hard" era. Designers should be free to do as they please as long as it's not because they're bending to a bunch of assholes on twitter who are butthurt.

>it’s good because fanservice
Actual retard

it really fucking is. Pick knight as starting class, block enemy attacks, punish. For boss stay out of AOE range, circle, punish boss ankles. Fucking retards complaining about dark souls desu

No. It is good because of the atmosphere, gameplay, characters and scenarios.

Read Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

All of which are inferior to previous games on top of pants on head retarded twists

You have the most retarded conception of suffering I've ever heard. People might suffer when they go on a diet, but talk to anyone who's succeeded and I guarantee they'll say they didn't regret the decision.

Thank you, based yano-san

>yaoi vs jomon

No. They are all the best in the series in MGS4.
