Kotaku has an article full of recommended Peace Walker tapes to listen to before The Phantom Pain. Lots of backstory and character development, some fun things too. Some of them were posted here before, but this is a little more comprehensive..

There a bunch of fricking dummies, they're not funny, they all sound like each other, they say the same things over and over, they like to pretend to be gay in a way that I'm sure would be insulting to any decent gay man. They eat their boogers. They can't ride a bike.

Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
Eating your boogers helps build a strong immune system. Don't eat other people's boogers, and polite society looks down on the practice, but I won't judge you for noshing on some nuggets.

Ok I read the Polygon review and IMO it's a bit of a travesty that Phantom Pain lost only one point for sexy stuff but Bayonetta 2 lost 2.5 points for sexy stuff.

Bayonetta 2 is not, by any metric, sexier than TPP, imho

If Polygon doesn't take off at least three points for the double rear end attack Mika does with Nadeshiko then we know something is hosed up here.

I think Bayonetta is sexier than Quiet. R. Mika had a really nice rear end but her breasts are too cartoonish for me to get horny, I think her design is just stylish and cool.

Polygon gave Madden 16 a 9 as well. Exhibit A in the case against scoring games.

He's taking point off because looking at a sexy lady makes him uncomfortable? That doesn't affect the gameplay.

Quiet is treated differently than other characters by the direction of the game's camera, too. During cutscenes, the camera sometimes pauses for a beat to focus — or straight up lingers — on Quiet's breasts. In one shot, we see it slide down the barrel of her sniper rifle, take measure of her cleavage before slowly rising up to her face. The camera framing puts her exposed body on display unnecessarily more often than not, whether we're looking down at Quiet's chest or gazing up at her bottom. Worse, a game event that hints at her being sexually assaulted felt more like a hamfisted plan to remove Quiet's pants just before she metes out gory revenge against her attackers. The Phantom Pain treats its few other female characters in a similar way, zeroing in on their jiggling breasts and panning across their asses in a silly, oversexualized way. It's distracting. It's annoying. It's tiresome.

I hope I can give Quiet some cool and funny outfits but I also appreciate Kojima's vision re: her boobs and butt

I was spoiled on one of Quiet's secret outfits. There's going to be some extremely good stuff in regards to buddy costumes based on what I saw.

I bet that reviewer is not ashamed of his words and deeds. I bet he got more than one boner playing the game and felt that there weren't enough cutscenes to allow him to rub his cheeto to completion. -1 point.

Turns out the secret reason for Quiet's exposure was that she was fully dressed the whole time but only the pure of heart could see her clothes.
