The way they've described online sounds really cool. You never directly see or interact with any other players, but you can find trails they've left in the wilderness and pick up/leave stuff in shared safe houses. That's a great way to keep the loneliness while still creating a sense of connection.

David D. Davidson posted:I know you mean this in jest, but I'm guessing this game will be Breath of the Wild with a Soviet-era science fiction coat of paint it would not surprise me. It really seems like it'll be a blend of BotW and MGSV. Since you work for a company, I assume it won't be the total "go wherever you want whenever you want" of BotW. Like in MGSV you'll have a pool of missions/jobs you can choose from. But the jobs will be much more exploration based than in MGSV, with your goal being to find a safe route between cities so you can make the delivery. And as you complete more jobs you'll create bridges between cities which will presumably have some sort of gameplay effect

Look Sir Droids posted:Is Breath of the Wild being used as a generic term for "open world game"? More like "good open world game", where there's a genuine feeling of exploration and discovery and you aren't just running from mission icon to mission icon ACES CURE PLANES posted:It's a pretty good name, considering the whole theme the game is setting up about staying connected, and having the villains be people specifically in locked away homogeneous groups works towards that. Isn't the Homo in Homo Demons the Homo in Homo Sapiens? They're calling themselves a new race of people, demon men.

Considering that Sam Porter Bridges works for Bridges, and the lady called Fragile works for Fragile, I'm assuming that Bridges isn't actually his name.

veni veni veni posted:I feel like this is sort of unfair, because the trailer doesn't focus on "you can go anywhere" at all. The end stinger is Mads looking straight into the camera and saying "the whole world will be yours to explore. You can go wherever you want. Even the moon" It's kinda weird that people aren't talking about that more. You'll be able to go to the moon in Death Stranding.

Steve Yun posted:In an interview Kojima was asked why he left Norman Reedus’ tattoos in the character model. He said he wants the character on screen to be both Sam Bridges and Norman Reedus. Blue is the Warmest Color. It was like Seydoux's big international success leading role. It is a French movie though, so it's mostly scissoring.

Grizzled Patriarch posted:Kojima gets one too (background of the 4th pic): It's too blurry to be sure, but that doesn't look like a Figma. It's not on a Figma stand, and the way the jacket bows out only makes sense if his hands are in his pockets, which you wouldn't do with a posable figure. I think it's a fixed-pose figure. Maybe just a one-off 3D-printed thing.

OK, actually the Colonels codec calls during the Arsenal Gear part of MGS2 are stream of consciousness. because they're just the random connections being made by a failing AI being released to the player unfiltered And the vampire part of the PS2 version of MGS3 is a nightmare, not actually a fever dream, but if someone called it a fever dream I wouldn't quibble. So Kojima games do feature a stream of consciousness, and a fever dream. But one each, and they're in separate games, and there's no stream of consciousness fever dream anywhere

It's like Ocelot says at the end of MGS2; "There's no such thing as magic or the supernatural, only cutting edge technology! And ghosts, ghosts are real. But not the ghost in my arm, that's actually cutting edge technology"

Steve2911 posted:Yes but it was real in MGS2 I think. No, the only source for that is the inaccurate and error-ridden Metal Gear Solid 4 Database. There is nothing in the games to suggest that he switched arms between 2 and 4. It was always a robot arm

RatHat posted:The MGS4 database is official though, regardless of if there are errors in it. And I’m pretty sure it was explicitly said that the robot arm happened between 2 and 4. "Official" is meaningless, it contradicts the games. The Database is garbage Steve2911 posted:Don't we physically see the arm in 2? He rolls his sleeve up to the elbow in 2, revealing what appears to be a transplanted human arm. In 4 he takes his jacket off, exposing his entire arm and torso, and you can see that it's a robot arm that looks like a real arm below the elbow, with a fake transplant scar

There's no evidence of an arm switch, and there is evidence that it's the same arm(the skin pattern and fake scar on the robot arm in MGS4). If there was actually an arm switch, then there should be some mention of that in the game itself. Maybe there is, god knows there's hours of Codec conversations and such in MGS4, I doubt I've heard it all. But until someone can prove that the arm switch is referred to in the game itself, it was the same arm.

Grizzled Patriarch posted:The arm in 4 looks nothing like the one in 2 though? Like the one in 4 is robotic from the wrist up, and the one in 2 is fleshy all the up to slightly past the elbow at the absolute least. Aside from Liquid's voice actor taking over, it also makes way more sense from a thematic / narrative perspective given the weird interplay of technology and actual "magic" in the series. The skin texture doesn't go all the way up like it should, but it still has the transplant scar in the exact same place. And it makes more sense because every other magic thing in MGS2 turned out to be a lie that Ocelot had a hand in. Fortune wasn't magic, Vamp wasn't actually a vampire, Ocelot wasn't really possessed by a ghost. There was real magic in MGS1, with the psychic and the ravens and all, but it was all a ruse in MGS2.

ACES CURE PLANES posted:It has a transplant scar in the same place because he had the old one removed and put on a new robo one, holy poo poo dude. You don't just chop off more of your natural body if you're getting rid of a possessed demon limb. YES, EXACTLY! The transplant scar was below the elbow, but the artificial arm went up all the way to the shoulder! ACES CURE PLANES posted:And Fortune was magic in MGS2 in the end, what is with you and picking and choosing what's actually canon based on completely random poo poo. She was magic once, not consistently magic like when Ocelot's bullet deflection machine was on. So there was the fake magic provided by Ocelot, and some nebulous amount of actual magic. But the actual magic doesn't matter, what matters is that Ocelot was faking magic

Look Sir Droids posted:Wtf is going on here? In MGS4 it was revealed Ocelot no longer had Liquid’s arm and he double crossed himself by hypnotizing himself to believe he was Liquid.* That’s discussed in the actual game. The PS3 database doesn’t matter bc it was probably created as marketing material independent of game development. the argument is over whether it was revealed that Ocelot no longer had Liquid's arm, or if it was revealed that Ocelot never had Liquid's arm.
