Still the best in the series
>>719928302I played with 2 second delay, the shittiest Duckstation configuration and a broken controller from 2009. It took me like 20 hours to complete, but would play again.
>>719928302>*tap tap tap*
>>719928302If you forgot to post a picture of MGS2
>>719928956>Huh? what's that noise
>>719928302That’s not Twin Snakes
>>719929119>Hmm, Just a box
>>719928302The only good one is MGSV since it's a gameKojima openly admitted during the interviews for MGS1 that he was trying to make a movie in a video game formatHe literally created the slopy of aaa movie games
>>719928302I agree(never played the others)
>>719929267>since it's a gameHalf an empty game*
>>719928302I just never understood and never will why people like 3 the most, legit the worst of the entire series.2 > 1 > 3I am missing much from not playing 4 and 5?
I hate his dogshit board, goodnight faggots.
>>7199295174 has the best gameplay (when you're allowed to play instead of watch)V has maybe 2 or 3 missions that are fun
>>719928302Too much gameplay and not enough cutscenes. It's not a REAL Metal Gear game.
>>719928302not so hard when the rest of the series dropped the ball and said "why make new boss when you can just reuse the same design again and change the name of the character"for clarification Ocelot=Olga=young OcelotRaven=fortune=Fury= raging ravenSniper wolf=the snipe sequence with otakon's sister and vamps=the end=crying wolf
>>719929187>Get out of the way!
>>719928302Its one of the best to be sure. And it has the best music and voice acting
mgs1 is one of those classics that has poor difficulty balance. normal is way too soft with damage and too generous with rations for most of the bosses to be effective at a basic level and hard makes stealth a tedious burden by removing radar. I get that the game was designed to be played fresh in 1998 and not by manchildren 25 years later but hell if it hasn't made me reluctant to start a new playthrough.
>>719928302OLD GAME BAD
>>719929074>the game people only pretend to enjoy because of youtubers
>>7199297144 doesn't have gameplay
>>719928302gawdlike pacman-tier gameplay with the most kino story and characters
>>719933889it's not real difficulty. once you figure out how to beat any of the bosses or rooms on normal consistently, you'll be able to do the same on any difficulty. the game didn't come out with difficulty modes for a reason.
>>719934037You've never touched the game.
>>719929517Mgs 1 > mgs 4 > mgs 2 > mgs gz > mgs pw > mgs 5 > mgs 3
>>719930041How the fuck are fortune and vamp anything like Raven or The EndThe latter is a particularly insane comparison
>>719934142>once you figure out how to beat any of the bosses or rooms on normal consistentlythis would never come into play because normal is so soft. that's my point. if you're a halfway experienced videogame player you can just facetank everything first try. hard at least has a semblance of testing you.
>>719933969mgs2 is not that hard to like. if you can get over the hump of raiden and some of the other gay anti-audience gags, it's a pretty straight forward conspiracy thriller>the government is actually controlled by evil AI's *sinister music sting*you don't have to pretend to like that. it's just a repackaging of the matrix.
>>719934479that's nonsense. you would die to gray fox, ocelote, and probably raven part 2 at least several times until you learned what you're supposed to do.
>>719928302MGS 1 is literally the only one worth playing.
>>719934783MGS2 sucks. Most of the game is doing stupid shit like bomb disposals, escort missions, listening for pace makers, sniper sections and underwater escort missions all cut up with shitty boss fights like fortune. Big shell also just sucks as a map with zero interesting shit going on at it, plus you only get half of fucking big shell since snake does everything on the other half.When people praise MGS2, they praise the like 20 minute long intro where you play as snake and the last 20 minutes while ignoring 95% of the game.
>>719928956Thank you for giving me a moment of my childhood back.
>>719933969>newfag zoomer thinks people only liked MGS2 because of youtubeOh sweet summer child
4 is trash; 2 is better but honestly gets too much hype these days. I completely agree that too many people enjoy its cliff notes with your playing the game itself.Anyway, 1>3>2>>>>>41 & 3 are typically praised because their stories are relatively “simple” compared to the other mainline games. People love to gas up 2, but it get very convoluted by the end. It has a couple of good ideas, but history has a funny way of trying to move past the fact that Kojima deliver the first MGS sequel as a game that doesn’t let you play as Snake and purposely rehashes the story from the first game - then tries to play it off by letting you know the game is “doing it on purpose”.3 has been getting hate because of Delta, but the prequel thing was great at the time and playing as Big Boss had everyone hyped after Raiden. It was a good game for the time and the narrative tried to be more cohesive than 2.But all this doesn’t matter because any of the good shit those first three games establish gets fucked by 4. Ocelot is just pretending to be people… for reasons. Any vaguely mystical about the previous games… nano machines. In fact, any lingering plot point Kojima doesn’t know how to resolve… nano machines. It fucking sucks.Again, Kojima did the MGS2 shit was 4; he couldn’t just make a proper conclusion. The first trailers had to let us know Snake is old and everything went to shit and he put a gun in his mouth and wants to kill himself. Great way to show your hero in his return as the main character of, what was going to be, the final installment of the series. It sucked then and it sucks now.
>>719928302that's not 3
>>719929517I agree that 3 is the worst of the trio, but it's all downhill from there. 4 is a movie and the only good thing about 5 is building your base.The only decent game after 2 is Ground Zeroes, and that's not even a full game. Maybe it's good because there's barely anything for Kojimbo to ruin.
Why are people angry about 3 this time?
>>719936674Who gives a fuck about the story
>>719936864The Boss never shuts up. Kojima really captured the spirit of a female with her.
LOL
>>719937636All the games really have are the story. The gameplay is just ok.
>>719937725If the gameplay is just ok to you, then you deserved 4.
>>719929119>Whose footprints are these?
LOOK OUT SNAKETHE GUYS WHO STOLE MY STEALTH PROTOTYPES ARE IN THERE WITH YOU
I have a reprint of this game which was part of some kind of ps2 collection. I never finished it. Is this the same as the base game or is it different? I may just throw it out and get the original ps1 version. I
>>719940517If you mean the Essential Collection version, it's the NA version of MGS but has an edited manual, that's about it.
>UGH-UGH-UGHUGHUGHUGHUGH>OOOOAAGH
>>719929714Watched a cutscene "movie" on youtube. 10 hours. 10.
What are you playing around with that ketchup for?
>>719929267>Kojima openly admitted during the interviews for MGS1 that he was trying to make a movie in a video game formatPretty much every game in the late 90s was trying to do that, but they were still games unlike the moviegameslop we have now.
>>719941529Okay, so you didn't play it?
After this game, tranq guns ruined the series. Too much of a low risk, high reward.Even Hitman realized this and only gave you 2 shitty bullets that barely hit per mission
