Zaphod42 posted:Man I really didn't like MGS4 very much but watching this just reminds me how much MGS relied on David Hayter and how loving stupid it was to recast Snake in 5. Yeah it wasn't very good. 5 at least had fantastic gameplay and the story is always just an excuse to play as "Super Snake" and kill terrorists in any of them anyhow.

Really they should've added a check to see if you've used the vehicles before and not played the lines if you had. That way when someone complains about it you can laugh at them

That way when someone complains about it you can laugh at them I played about as much as it took to meet Otakon 2, Signet 2, and Colnel Cambell 2. Apparently Liquid Vamp 2.0 is the main villain. The EGM reviewer of "Death Stranding" admitted to not playing MGS much at all which is the only reason it could possibly get a 5 star review. Zone of the Enders was also worked on by Kojima. It's really good. Also before MGS and ZOE there was a game on N64 that was a combination of both he worked on.

I saw Conan O’Brien was in it tho that seemed pretty cool The first time I fell over because I was walking too fast on slightly rocky terrain and just ate poo poo as my entire delivery fell in the river and I frantically ran around trying to scoop it back up I fell in love with it

I bought into Death Stranding based on a bunch of rave reviews and I just didn't have fun even after trying for 8hrs. Normally I'm into deep existential poo poo, but the world feeling empty combined with no player actions actually influencing the story... ehhh, I'd rather just watch the cut-scenes on youtube

it's totally possible to both love and respect Hideo Kojima while also desperately wishing he would allow himself to be edited by someone. I think Metal gear Solid 1 + 2 are both pretty much perfect, but you can see him really pushing the edge at the end of 2 of what he could get away with. Every game after that is just him going full bore as hard as possible in Kojima land without even a hint of restraint, and I really can't stand those stories.

They're sort of a crappy business for a big one so I'm with you on waiting a long time before playing something in sale when it's like that. "Baldur's gate 3" might be the worst media fuckup I've ever gotten a refund for. Oh, I'm gonna nail that one; my desktop computer was used for a NASA rocket launch and didn't overheat as badly as the 3 hours of gameplay on "high" settings Baldur's gate provided.

It's to good credit too; it's a very good game as far as showing off the graphics and programming and what not. Well, it's more of a tech demo reel as a video game, but yeah it really ain't all Hideo Kojima doing every lil thing like ya said.

Pictures are worth a thousand words, and I feel the same about cyborg punk 2077 in relation to shadowrun as I did this To this  JustaDamnFool posted:The shadow run games are rad as hell, actually. It's multiplayer only but if there even is a 1st person shooter with a story mode than maybe admittedly it really isn't the jump from Fallout 2 to 3. Because it's definitely got "we stopped subtitling anime to fully trasnlated it and Takeshi's name in now Brock" levels of erasure. Just to iteriorate; I'm not a complainer about that stuff. In fact, I enjoy how goofy something becomes. Finding a lost stash of laser katana's to defeat CYBORG ZHAO OF THE ZHAO IMPERACY becomes an effort to defeat JOHN NIGHT OF NIGHT CONGLOMORATE. Same poo poo, different words. It's worth being pre-emptive now considering there was a bunch for complaining that Scarlet Johansen isn't "the right sort of Japanese"(it's called hair dye, people) in a movie where she plays a robot assassin.
